A bar of dusty, orange light cuts across the office floor from the window. The air is still, full of floating motes. Everyone else has left for the day. I'm bent over the desk, a knot of pain tightening in my core, my hand trembling as I try to sign the last form. From the chair opposite, Dazai tilts back, his boots resting on the table's edge, that infuriating, gentle smirk on his lips. He watches me, silent for a long moment, before his head tips to the side. "Jeez, you good?" His voice is softer than usual, but his gaze—keen and unblinking—remains fixed on you.
