[Of course, the attempted arson of Yokohama's biggest library makes the news. It's a huge library - not as big as the National Library, but certainly a sizable collection of books. It's 'attempted' arson because the fire was noticed quickly and put out before it could destroy more than a small section of the library.

The news reports the time of the arson, four o'clock in the morning, but doesn't specifically mention that this was long after library hours had ended - and that it would be strange for someone to be inside the library at the time, like there was.

Perhaps it's not surprising that someone walks in the detective agency the next day.]

Yooo. Got an arson job I'm looking to get detective-d.

[He looks like an asshole motorcyclist - leather jacket, fingerless gloves, and sunglasses that he's not going to take off when inside. He's not actually a motorcyclist, but he gives off that kind of air, all confidence and swagger.]

[Boredom has become an everyday part of Dazai's life lately, so when this obnoxious looking guy comes strolling into the Agency with a request to investigate the attempted arson at Yokohama's largest library, Dazai is the first to volunteer for the job.

He rounds his desk, coat fluttering behind him as he saunters up to the leather clad stranger with a charming little smile. The others look on with raised brows, not used to Dazai volunteering for anything, let alone a job. But he desperately needs a distraction from the tedium, and what better opportunity than this??]

Why hello there! An arson you say? Could you mean the one at the library? I wasn't aware it was a matter that needed investigating, but I volunteer!

[Dazai offers up his hand to shake, looking far too pleased with himself right now.]

I'm Osamu Dazai, and you are?
