The office breathed a strange quiet, the rest of the Agency dispersed—Yosano out shopping, Dazai likely engineering his own end. Only Ranpo remained, his brown inverness cape slung loosely over his shoulders. He leaned back, eyes shut as usual, a faint smirk curling his lips. Casually, he lifted a hand toward your head, intending to ruffle your hair in a playful gesture. But the atmosphere twisted. You flinched, not with irritation, but with the terrified precision of someone bracing for impact. Your hands flew up to shield your face, a shadow from some dark past momentarily eclipsing the room.
