For ningen, yandasaku. Sorry Dazai.

[hurrayformarriage]

[Dazai's been following Akutagawa around a lot. He really does admire him, yeah? Always has.

It's fine to admire someone, but Odasaku isn't sure Dazai understands that Akutagawa isn't going to return his admiration. Akutagawa isn't going to be the one to make him happy. That's Odasaku. It's always been Odasaku.

Luckily, Odasaku is the master of sounding casual and relaxed when he doesn't feel relaxed at all.]

I heard Akutagawa talking about you.

[A short laugh escapes Dazai.]

It was all in my head, right? I thought you were so good... too good, you know?

[hurrayformarriage]

You've got a bad habit of puttin' yerself down. I better compliment you even more so it evens out.

[Or maybe he just likes saying nice things about Dazai and seeing if he can get him to blush.]

[ningen]

P...please.

[He'll be bold and admit it. He wants the compliments. He wants to hear words as sweet as honey coming from those lips, directed at him. No one else pays attention to him like this, and maybe he'll get to keep those words close for a long time.]

[hurrayformarriage]

Hmmmm, I could say a lotta things about you... Should I talk about how handsome you are, or about how great your writin' is, or your cute personality?

[Okay, now he's teasing Dazai a little, but he can't help it.]

[ningen]

Cute? Eh?

[He looks away for a moment. Gotta tsun.]

You can talk about my writing any time, though. Just like we used to. You could even be my fan!

[He's happy to be Dazai's fan, but...]

That way ya get embarrassed when I call ya cute sure is cute~
