The execution has come and passed with the death of two more Agents. However time moves on without cease and so must the living. There are no celebrations, only the silence that grows heavier and heavier with every day and the feeling that something is pleased with what it has done.

There are two more days before the new week arrives: what will you do?

[....This feels like a crossroads. He can let Dazai walk out the door, or...somehow, gain the strength to stand back up and push forward for someone else's sake.

And...even in these depths of despair, he very...nearly does. A hand suddenly reaches out, trying to grab at something of Dazai's to stop him.

'I'm...not someone who can.'

It's...too close. They're too close, him and Rin - that was probably why they talked so much, wasn't it?

...For himself, he'd never crawl back out. But for someone else...]

[the door's already open and there's no way he can stick around after that. nerves too raw, mind already twisting itself trying to get the square peg through the round hole--it never managed well unless he put real effort into it and he just doesn't have the energy.

he has just enough to slap that age-old smile onto his face as he looks back. practiced. nearly flawless if not for the edge of brittleness at the corners.]

The rooms are switching tonight. So be sure to get back to your room before too long.

[and then he's. going. bye.]
