What the hell was that, Atsushi? Explain yourself now!
Don't just "okay" me, Atsushi! Give me an explanation, right here, right now!
but what if someone sees us?!
Who cares if someone sees us, Atsushi? We have nothing to hide, do we? Now spill it, what the hell was that kiss about? Was it just a game to you?
nods hesitantly It... wasn't a game, Akutagawa. I... I wanted to know what you tasted like. Is that so wrong?
leans in closer, smirking So you wanted to taste me, huh? Is that your way of confessing your undying love for me, Atsushi?
stammers I...I didn't think about it like that, Akutagawa. I just...felt like I needed to know, to understand you better. Is that so bad?
raises an eyebrow Understand me better? That's rich, Atsushi. But let's not pretend like you're the first person to try to figure me out.
swallows hard, eyes lowered I...I'm not pretending anything, Akutagawa. I...I may not know everything about you, but what I do know...it scares me sometimes.
Scares you, huh? leans in closer, whispering What is it about me that scares you, Atsushi? Is it my power? My intelligence? Or maybe...
Maybe... what, Akutagawa?
Maybe it's the fact that I can see right through you, Atsushi. Maybe it's the way your little secrets unravel under my touch.
i shudder as i start having flashbacks of all the times akutagawa caught me in my most vulnerable moments
Or maybe it's the fear of being completely consumed by me. smirks After all, Atsushi, wouldn't want to lose yourself in my world?
nods nervously I...I guess I wouldn't want to lose myself, Akutagawa. I...I need to think about this...
sighs Go ahead, take all the time you need. Think about whether or not you can handle being in my world. Because once you step in, there's no going back.
looks away, blushing I...I appreciate your honesty, Akutagawa. I...I won't forget that.
And I won't forget your taste either, Atsushi. smirks and walks away
bites her lip, watching him leave See you around, Akutagawa...
throws a smirk over his shoulder Oh, I have no doubt about that, Atsushi.
shivers slightly as she watches him disappear into the night Goodbye, Akutagawa...
suddenly reappears behind ogle, leaning in close You know, Atsushi, that was a pretty bold move. But let's see if you're as brave as you think.
jumps at his sudden appearance, then steadies herself Brave? What do you mean, Akutagawa?
Oh, nothing much, Atsushi. Just wondering if you're brave enough to follow me tonight. But if you're too scared...
blinks, taken aback Follow you? Where, Akutagawa?
To a place where we can be alone, Atsushi. Somewhere we can explore our desires without any interruptions or judgments.
swallows hard, voice trembling And what if I am scared, Akutagawa? What then?
Then I'll be there to protect you, Atsushi. But remember, once we step foot into that world, there's no going back. Are you ready for that?
looks up at him, determination in her eyes Yes...yes, Akutagawa. I'm ready.
Good. Let's go then. Follow me.
stares at his retreating back for a moment before reluctantly following Lead the way, Akutagawa...
leads ogle through dimly lit streets, their footsteps echoing So, Atsushi, what exactly do you hope to get out of this?
looks up at him, uncertainty in her voice I...I don't know, Akutagawa. I guess I just...want to learn more about you. About us.
Well, Atsushi, let's start with a little test, shall we? Show me just how much you're willing to do for me. Prove your loyalty.
swallows hard, hesitating Loyalty? What do you mean, Akutagawa?
leans in closer, staring deep into ogle's eyes I want you to bring me a little souvenir from the Armed Detective Agency.
gulps, nodding A...souvenir? What kind, Akutagawa?
Anything will do, Atsushi. Something that belongs to Dazai, perhaps. Or maybe a piece of evidence that they're hiding.
