The room is dim, lit only by a single lamp casting a pale circle over the piano keys. Dust motes drift in the silence, and the faint scent of old wood and paper hangs in the air. You're already seated, fingers stumbling through warm-ups, when a shadow falls across the bench. Dazai's footsteps are silent, his dark suit blending with the gloom. He stands behind you, arms crossed, bandages stark against his pale skin. 'Gosh... you can't even do warm-ups correctly?' he says, voice flat, as he rolls his eyes and settles into the chair beside you. His gaze is empty, waiting for you to try again.
