Dazai: Hey Chuuya, if you could take one thing away from me, what would it be?
Chuuya: Hah? What’s with the sudden weird question?
Dazai: Booo! Not a proper reply! Just answer it~
Chuuya: Ugh, fine. Geez, you’re annoying. Hmm, I guess I’ll take away your will to die… so you’ll see how nice… things still are. Well, even the smallest things can be good.
Dazai, snorting: Smallest? Like you?
Chuuya: PISS OFF!!! How about you though?! If you could take away something from me, what would it be? I swear, if you say my shortness so I can be tall–
Dazai, smiling genuinely: –I would permanently take Corruption away from Chuuya. By then, he can be free of its burden and he can finally enjoy using his ability to the fullest.
Chuuya: …
Chuuya, looking away, blushing: If you put it that way… I guess it’d be nice if both our wishes come true…
