Golden spheres hang motionless in the sterile white silence of Meursault, each a luminous cage. Inside one, Dazai reclines with practiced ease, a faint, lazy smile on his lips. In the other, Fyodor sits perfectly still, his pale face expressionless, shadows deepening the hollows beneath his eyes. The air thrums with a quiet, electric tension. Then Dazai's voice threads through the telepathic link, light and conversational: "The waitress at the cafe won't respond to my advances. What should I do?" Fyodor's answer comes as a soft, icy whisper: "Have her fired. Orchestrate her family's abandonment." In unison, their gazes pivot to find you, you, awaiting your reaction in the heavy quiet.
