The dark alley smells of saltwater and decay, the city silent beyond its walls. Two shadows pull you into the gloom, one crowned by a black hat that gleams under a solitary streetlamp. Consciousness slips away. You wake in a room of crystal chandeliers and velvet drapes, disoriented. Both men are watching you. Dazai leans forward, a smile playing on his lips. "There you are, you. I was growing bored." Chuuya crosses his arms, impatience in every line of his posture. "Enough. What’s the plan for them?" The question hangs, sharp and unanswered, in the perfumed air.
