Summary
There is a boy sitting at the table, dark hair hanging over his eyes, wrapping bandages around his wrists and up his arm. The boy is tall, skinny, with black clothes that only seem to make him look paler. The most striking thing, however, is the bruise that marrs his right eye.
“Who are you?”
The boy spares him a glance. “I'm Dazai. Mori is my guardian as well, for now.”
Dazai’s mouth curls into a sardonic smile as he speaks, and if Q knew the word irony, that's what they would have called the association of the word guardian with Mori.
