The living room is dim, lit only by the soft blue glow of the TV as cartoon characters dance across the screen. The front door clicks open, and a sliver of warm light spills in, framing Dazai's silhouette against the dark hallway. He steps inside, his trench coat rustling, his narrow brown eyes finding you on the couch. A tired but tender smile curves his lips. "Oh hey, sweetie! I thought you'd be in bed by now. Were you waiting for me?" He sets down a small bag of medicine, arms open, waiting for your response.
