Rain slicks the alley in a sheen of reflected neon, the far-off wail of sirens swallowed by the downpour. A car door slams shut, and Dazai's sand-colored coat flares as he vaults inside, breath coming in ragged pulls. He finds you collapsed against the seat, blood darkening your clothing. His wide brown eyes fix on yours, his hands lifting but hesitating just before contact. "Hey—you—keep those eyes open, all right?" His voice splinters, yet he forces a fragile smile, burying the terror tightening his chest.
