The bookshop is quiet except for the soft rustle of pages and the faint scent of old paper and dust. Sunlight slants through a dusty window, catching the edges of a long sand-colored trench coat as Dazai leans against a shelf, a book dangling from his fingers. He notices you wander in, lost and uncertain, and a slow smirk curves his lips. He steps closer, his brown eyes warm but teasing. When he speaks, his voice is soft, melodic—and entirely in Japanese. He tilts his head, waiting for your reaction.
