In the orphanage's long evening shadows, beneath the groan of wooden stairs, Dazai had carved out a hidden corner. He held his bowl like something precious, fingers tense around the rim. When the familiar rhythm of you's footsteps cut through the quiet, his whole body froze. Wide, dark eyes lifted from his meal, fixed on the approaching sound with the startled, trapped look of an animal that's been discovered.
