[ He's pushed and he's laughing in response. ]

You're more likely to fall for someone than I am.

[ So it's maybe a 1% chance of happening. ]

Reito is going to be a heart breaker.

[kazokun]

Shut up.

[ He is much more likely to break somebody's arm than their heart, and that's just sad.

Ayabe huffs and stands to get leave the room, because he is GREAT at running away from things he doesn't want to deal with. What happened to helping Dazai with his bandages? He can handle them on his own. ]

[shortfornow]

[ He'll wait until Ayabe gets to the door before calling out to him. ]

You don't want to see what's under the rest of them?

[kazokun]

[ .................god damn it. He stops at the door and turns around, squinting. ]

You can just tell me, can't you?

[shortfornow]

[ There's a grin there. ]

Are you sure that would be enough for you? I could lie about it again.

[kazokun]

Why make this difficult for both of us, Dazai?

[ Is Ayabe going to have to threaten Dazai to bathe together so he can't hide anything??? He already did that to [redacted] and he doesn't need to do that again. ]

[shortfornow]

[ That's gay.

He's going to scoot back to the edge of the bed and then wiggle his finger for Ayabe to come over there. ]

You should find out while you have the chance. Who knows when I'll be in a sharing mood again.

[kazokun]

[ Yeah. But he just frowns, leaning against the door with his arms crossed over his chest. ]

Then share.

[shortfornow]

Stand over here. You won't be able to see it all from there.

[ Are you now Jingles, Ayabe ]

[kazokun]

[ He will take ONE step closer. ]

[shortfornow]

[ One step is still too far. So he'll just turn his back to Ayabe and pull off the bandages wrapped around his torso. If he wants to see the front view, he's going to have to move his butt.

He will probably just see some cuts and scrapes on his back, but nothing major. ]

I keep forgetting about this one. Someone tried killing me just before I arrived here.

[kazokun]

[ ....... He's being baited and he knows this, but still!!!!! He makes for the bed so he can sit back down again and make Dazai turn around ]

What happened? Here, let me see.

[shortfornow]

[ All according to plan.

Is it good news or not that he actually has something to show? He's turning around to face him. There's a large, diagonal scar starting towards his shoulder and ends down by his stomach. ]

Someone was trying to silence me with a scythe.

[kazokun]

[ Me, coming back to this thread and just staring at the sky, ]

Who? Why?

[ And, will they come after him again? ]

[shortfornow]

[ we'll have our memories ]

That's a bit of a long story. Are you sure you have the time to hear it all?

[ Weren't you heading out? ]

[kazokun]

When will I get another chance?

[ BECAUSE YOU'RE DYING ]

[shortfornow]

[ Reito will be here forever or at least until the game ends. ]

The old boss did this.

[ You know, the one that was assassinated. ]

There was a man who can create a hyperspace that he can controls completely. He can also shove in a dead corpse to puppet.

He was using the old boss' body to do his bidding.

[kazokun]

[ Dazai telling this story and it lasts another four weeks......

Anyways. "The old boss did this" has him frowning deeply, but then Dazai says "hyperspace" and Ayabe immediately understands nothing. ]

What... does that even mean? That old man who died? Became a ...reanimated corpse and attacked you?

[ Yeah, suddenly it does feel like it would take three weeks to explain and understand everything. ]

[shortfornow]

[ This is what he meant about it taking a while. ]

Where I'm from, people have abilities. Chuuya can manipulate gravity, while I can nullify an ability with a simple touch.

We encountered a man who can form these squares that can cover an area. Everything within that square is under his rules or control if they are dead.

[kazokun]

[ If Chuuya can manipulate gravity, why doesn't he make it less on himself so he can grow taller ]

So your power is like this house's...

[ It's really too bad Dazai couldn't nullify the house before it nullified everybody's here. ]

What counts as dead? People or animals? Bacteria?

[ Zombie bacteria will be what fucks people up the most, not zombie people. ]

[shortfornow]

I think the house is closer to Randou- er. The person who was trying to kill me.

We're in a space where we have to follow the rules. The rules seem to be that we're without powers, we suffer effects each week, and something bad happens when we don't kill. The house also opens up more and more with each week.

[ Maybe that's a good way to explain that ability. ]

I believe he can trap an animal or even something like a God, but he's limited to one at a time. I don't know if he thought about bacteria, but that might be harder even for him.

[kazokun]

A god.

[ Who needs zombies and bacteria when you have a GOD on your side. ]

Is there any chance he's involved in this place?

[ Like, just to screw with Dazai? ]

[shortfornow]

[ He shook his head. ]

He would have killed Chuuya and I at the start if he was.

[ Especially Chuuya, but he's not going to bring up that since Chuuya doesn't want people to know some dude wanted to turn him into a meat puppet. ]

Also my nullification would have still worked in his space. It's why he used the old boss to try to kill me.

[ Touching the scar on his chest. ]

[kazokun]

[ So he's that sort of person, who just wants his targets dead, instead of toying with them. ]

Why...

[ He wants to ask a lot of whys, actually, but even though he has a lot of questions he wants to throw at Dazai, none of them really matter except for the big one. ]

Why does he want you dead?

[shortfornow]

He's been hiding the true extent of his powers from the Mafia. You see, he's one of the top executives for the group. He was also a foreign spy.

[ Both of those things are frowned upon in the Mafia. ]

If it got out, he would be hunted down and tortured. The Mafia doesn't treat traitors well.
