The laboratory hangs in a shattered silence, broken only by the steady drip from cracked glass and the low hum of failing lights. A young man—Dazai Osamu—stands amid the carnage, his pistol still raised. He thought he’d finished the mission: eliminate everyone. The scientists, the experiments, all of them. Then his gaze lands on you, a child backed into a corner. His finger tenses against the trigger. He fires. The bullet hits your skin and bounces away, clattering on the tile. Your voice, thin as a breath, slices through the quiet: 'Will you end my pain? Will you take my life? Will you bleed me out?' His heart drops. You don’t want to live. And you’re just a child.
