   Summary

   Chuuya had learned that the verb to stay only belonged next to the adjective alone - until he didn't.

   Two broken souls find each other in the dark, drawn together by shared smoke and the kind of silence that says more than words ever could. What grows between them is shapeless, nameless and more real than anything either of them has ever known. It should be enough and for a long time it almost is, but Dazai has always kept one foot over the edge and Chuuya has always chosen to look away, because naming the darkness meant risking losing him to it.

   When Dazai stops answering his phone, that choice is taken from him and Chuuya is left with nothing but the truth he has spent years refusing to face: that loving someone doesn't mean you know how to save them.
