Sort of? I mean, sometimes if I reach out to him I can hear his grumbling. But when I reach out for him I can feel him try to tug me in and consume me like a gravity well would, so I don't usually do that. So normally I just feel him there, yeah.
Nah. I haven't felt him since we got here. That's why I didn't sleep so well the first week, you know? The only time I ever felt alone in my own body before was all the times you used No Longer Human on me.

[ Though the second bit of info... there's a moment of surprise before he taps his forehead. ]
Remember what Hunter said? It won't let me tell anyone. It wants to live no matter what.

You don't feel him here, do you?

Date: 2020-03-15 04:47 am (UTC)I don't think I could get used to having someone else there.
[ It's usually empty. ]

Date: 2020-03-15 04:56 am (UTC)[It's different, when something has always been there.]
...say, Dazai. Why didn't you kill me or Ayabe? We were both right there with you.
no subject
Date: 2020-03-15 05:05 am (UTC)Maybe it knew it would have gotten caught. Or maybe it's because you two are closest to me.

You might be right.

Date: 2020-03-15 05:23 am (UTC)You care about Ayabe, huh?
[I'm sorry he's like this.]
no subject
Date: 2020-03-15 05:26 am (UTC)[ Do you know often he showed off how uneven his hair was to drive Ayabe crazy? ]
no subject
Date: 2020-03-15 05:34 am (UTC)[He snickers.]
Hopefully you weren't too mean to him, Ayabe's a good person with a short temper.
[He sounds genuinely fond of Ayabe when he says that too.]
no subject
Date: 2020-03-15 05:45 am (UTC)It's for a different reason.
[ He uses different tactics for them both and there's different reasons to keeping them around. ]
no subject
Date: 2020-03-15 09:07 pm (UTC)Yeah? What different reasons?
no subject
Date: 2020-03-16 12:26 am (UTC)He supposes it's the only time to share. It might be good to see his reaction. ]
He's fun to pick on, while you make it interesting. I never argued with anyone before or fought against anyone.
no subject
Date: 2020-03-16 01:05 am (UTC)[He finds that hard to believe, given how abrasive Dazai can be.]
no subject
Date: 2020-03-16 02:27 am (UTC)Not even once.
no subject
Date: 2020-03-16 02:44 am (UTC)Huh. Well I guess that's why you wanted to 'keep me' then, huh?
[All the dog comments suddenly make more sense.]
no subject
Date: 2020-03-16 02:49 am (UTC)Could be. I don't really understand it myself.
no subject
Date: 2020-03-16 03:12 am (UTC)And Chuuya's going to hold up his own hand, pressing it to his side of the bars right over where Dazai's hand is.
No hand-holding will happen here, though. These bars are very solid.]
Maybe it's puberty or something. Teenagers are supposed to get really stupid at that time, right?
no subject
Date: 2020-03-16 07:53 pm (UTC)That makes it sound like I want to kiss you.
[ He manages to make a face at that that basically says no way.
Another thought pops in his head. ]
Maybe Missile was right.
