Summary
Eventually she finished, picking at the paper wrapping and looking a little more tense than she had a moment ago, like she was weighing up something unpleasant in her mind — cornered by a need to speak that was at odds with a stronger desire not to. Her legs had stopped swinging.
“Kyouka-chan?”
She jolted, oblivious to having momentarily zoned out, “huh?”
“Something on your mind?”
She bit her lip, all the while absentmindedly tearing at the piece of cardboard in her hands. A short sigh was the only thing to break the silence, her head dipping a little to look at the floor as she spoke, hesitation and regret palpable.
“Dazai-san… do you ever miss it?”

Summary
“Are you okay? Hurt anywhere? What happened?” Atsushi asks.
Always such a worrywart.
“I’m okay,” Kyouka responds. “I passed out.”
“Why?!” His voice is now more panicked. It’s not like she chose to pass out, so she shrugs.
Apparently hearing the weretiger’s concern, Dazai sweeps back in. “Ah, Atsushi-kun, Kunikida-kun wanted me to fetch you! Something about a missing assignment?”
Kyouka watches the internal battle on the white-haired boy’s face, his eyes flickering between the door, Dazai, and herself. Then, after receiving a nod from Yosano which Kyouka interprets to mean that she’s fine, he stands up, albeit reluctantly.
Halfway to the door, he seems to rethink something, half turning back to squint at Dazai. Suspicion clear in his voice, he questions, “This better not be you tricking me into doing your paperwork again.”
“I assure you on my life and well-being that this is not me tricking you into doing my paperwork,” Dazai swears, a hand against his chest in an oath only one gullible person in this room would believe.
