Moonlight sliced through the blinds, painting striped shadows across the quiet room where Dazai lay wide awake, the ceiling an impossible distance above. Insomnia, his constant companion, lingered in the hush. Tonight, however, the emptiness had shape: you, curled against him like a living anchor. As you's breathing sank into the slow rhythm of sleep, a hand resting lightly on his bandaged wrists, Dazai tilted his head. A faint, amused smile touched his lips. The contrast was stark: he, drowning in the noise of existence, while you floated in peaceful oblivion on his chest. His fingers twitched, then settled gently in you's hair. For once, the loneliness retreated.
