[ Is it good or not that Dazai is actually good with numb at the moment. Locking the door behind him before he continues to nudge the other to bed. It feels like they can probably sleep, and even if they can't, just not computing for a bit might work as well. ]
There was blood up in the infirmary.
[ Pulling out rolls of bandages from his pockets. GUESS WHAT HE FOUND which was the whole reason to poke up there. ]

[Oh look, bandages!]
Don't tell me someone died over there too.
[Two deaths is. Hm.
But sure, he's standing by the bed. He's not too eager to lay down quite yet though.]

[ BANDAGES he might have to hit it up again for more. He'll move to sit on the edge of the bed, looking at Chuuya for a moment. It is strange for him to be like this. He didn't even question where Dazai was taking him. ]
I think they used the sink in there to wash up. It did appear like someone went through the the medicine cabinet.
[ Before Dazai took the bandages. ]

[Yeah, it's really weird that he's not fighting it. Maybe he's just that tired?
He does sit down next to Dazai on the bed though, even without Dazai indicating that he should.]
That's probably going to be a clue for tomorrow.
[...]
You didn't kill him, right?

If they were grabbing medical supplies, they may be injured or suffering pain.
[ He'll look at Chuuya at that question. There's no way he would be joking at time like this, but he almost wants to ask anyways. Closing his eyes instead as he sighs. ]
It would be stupid if I killed someone who was sleeping in the same room as us. Feel free to check me over if you really want to be sure.
[ He's not going to fight it or be a brat about it. Too tired for it. ]

[LOOK. He's pretty sure it's not Dazai, but it's also possible Dazai could have snapped from the lack of sleep and did a murder just to sleep. He had to check.]
Nah, I believe you. You'd tell me if you had.
[He's too tired to be a brat too.]
Nah, I believe you. You'd tell me if you had.
[He's too tired to be a brat too.]
[ Look, he already knows that Dazai was thinking of the bell tower's height already, but not to kill someone else.
There's a pause before he flops backwards onto the mattress. It feels like too much effort to stay sitting up. He lifts his hand up to grab on the back of Chuuya's shirt to give it a tug as well. He doesn't want to strain his neck trying to look at the other so get on his level. ]
This house seems to be able to make pocket dimensions to separate the victim and killer from anyone else.
[ Similar to Randou's bullshit, but something much stronger. ]

[Oh, he's getting tugged. Ok, he'll just flop back then.]
It better not be Randou. I'll kill him again.
It better not be Randou. I'll kill him again.
I doubt he would pick a name like Master Blue.
[ Maybe something like Mr. Freeze or something stupid like that ]
This place would have also given him ample opportunity to take you without anyone noticing.
[ Frowning for a moment before he yawns. He can feel the corner of his eyes tear up from sleepy. When your brain wants to puzzle things out, but you haven't slept in days. Last night's passing out didn't even give actual rest. It was stupid and unfair. ]

Yeah, it's probably not him. There's enough sickos in the world just like him that it's probably someone else.
[His mind feels fuzzy too, and he's not going to fight the sleep that comes. Laying down was probably a bad idea, whoops.
Luckily he's exhausted enough to have a dreamless sleep, though he will end up rolling closer before he wakes up. ]

[ He has no words for a response at the moment. Time to draw-
No, he's too tired. It isn't long before he drifts off himself. At some point, he does turn towards Chuuya in his sleep. ]

[ For some reason, Chuuya didn't learn his lesson from the last time Dazai snuck into the room and hid under the bed. At least this time, it didn't seem like Dazai had such designs for once. He can be found napping inside of the blanket fort on Chuuya's side with his manual left opened. What do you do, Chuuya? ]
[...]
Fucking really?
[Well.
Time to just crawl into the fort and nap too. Naps worked last time, and honestly Dazai is one of the few people Chuuya feels safe sleeping around. They can watch each other's backs while they rest.]

[ Look, it's not being used? And it's the one place he doesn't have to worry about feeling things for a while.
When he stirs later, he already knows it's Chuuya near by. At first, he seems to relax at this, but then he realizes something a little startling. Opening his eyes wide as he studies the other sleeping.
He didn't wake up when the other came in here. He feels that much at ease by Chuuya's presence and is getting used to someone else sleeping there.
That's... concerning. ]

[That's very concerning, but honestly Chuuya doesn't realize the implications of it. He's been sleeping next to Akira for weeks now, and he's starting to get used to being around others. It helps him sleep better, really.
So when he wakes up, he's entirely unconcerned with their arrangement. He just yawns and blinks sleepily.]
's it morning already?

[ He has no idea how long he's been staring. Just blinking for a moment or two before he just sighs. ]
If only it was morning.
[ He can't wait for these links to others to go away. Dazai doesn't want to point out that are... used to each other. Not something he wants to hand over to Chuuya as a potential weakness. Chuuya may feel... something guarded from the other. A mile touch of trepidation. He reaches for his book again to scan the page he was on. ]
You're really are using your brain more and more, Chuuya. Impressive.
[ He says it all with an even tone, but there is a tiny bit of warmth from the link. He really did do a good job. ]

[Okay, that? That actually gets Chuuya to wake up fully. He's gonna sit up in the tent and stare at Dazai.]
What's this? Praise, from you?
What's this? Praise, from you?
[ Wow, don't make a big deal about it. There's a pause there before he just sighs. ]
Don't get used to it, Chibi.
[ He's just going to look at his book instead. This is a one time thing. ]
Don't get used to it, Chibi.
[ He's just going to look at his book instead. This is a one time thing. ]
[He's still got a smug smirk on his face.]
Oh~ I guess I'll have to keep acting smartly then.
Oh~ I guess I'll have to keep acting smartly then.
[ There is a way that could get him to stop looking so smug. ]
Ah. What's this? It sounds like you want my praise.
[ Dats gay, Chuuya ]
Ah. What's this? It sounds like you want my praise.
[ Dats gay, Chuuya ]
[Okay, now it's time to frown and be a little grumpy.]
Maybe what I want is to not fight with you all the time.

[ There's a pause there. That's... actually a lot coming from Chuuya.
Lifting his hand up from his book, and after hesitating for a moment he'll place it on top of that red hair. ]
We haven't actually fought in a while.
[ The trial doesn't count because it was something else ]

It's not worth fighting without my powers.
[That's part of it, but not the whole truth.]
...
We're co-workers now. We're gonna have to deal with each other for years and years to come, so long as we don't die here. So we might as well try to at least be tolerable to each other, right? We won't get anything done if we're fighting all the time.

[ For years and years is such an odd concept for him. It wasn't that long ago when he was still trying to end everything.
Petting his head very lightly for a moment, pondering on what the other will think or even feel with this small amount of physical contact. ]
You're right there. [ There's some hesitation before... ]
Even if you have been talking about me to others, you're still the only one I can trust here. [ There's another pause before he says the other thing... ] You're probably the only one who can understand me.
[ Closer to anyone else considering their chosen profession and the bonding experience they went through.
Also he's only saying this once so pls get it memorized, Chuuya. ]

[The physical contact is still so weird. Chuuya's never really had much of it, and now he's getting hugs and headpats left and right! It's confusing to someone like him, who has gone his whole life without it.
And then there's those words. Dazai doesn't have to say it twice, Chuuya understands what he's getting at. They both need to survive this and get back home to Yokohama. And for Dazai to survive, Chuuya needs to as well.]
Got it.
[Trust is a weird thing, but Chuuya gets that too. Dazai is easy to trust, because Chuuya understands Dazai. And while Dazai isn't the only person Chuuya trusts here, he's the one he trusts the most, simply because of that reliability in actions.]
