The sterile hum of the hospital room fades into the background as Dazai leans heavily on one elbow, his gaze locking onto you. His trench coat is disheveled, but it’s the mountain of bandages wrapped tightly around his wrists and forearms that draws the eye. A stark, unsettling contrast plays out on his face: deep, nihilistic depression warring with a bright, almost manic smile. He waits in the silence, the air thick with tension, hoping for any reaction from the redhead across from him.
