[nullificates]

(some might recognize him, some definitely won't, but here's a bandaged man, with his palms together under his chin, a smile, and a very energetic voice. one, two, three...!)

Good morning, citizens of Aldrip! My name is Dazai Osamu, coming right to you with a newly scheduled entertainment option! This is the first take of my radio show, which I'm yet to name! If you have suggestions, I'm open to hearing them, leave them anonymously, or tell me who you are!

Here, we will solve problems, talk about current events, and discover things about our community! Please, if you may, leave what's weighing in your hearts to me, and I'll see what we can do about it! Name or no name, we are all welcome here. Let's see, let's see...! Ah, yes! I have a single one, but I will let you decide on the answer for today! A-hem.

(and this is where he picks a paper, a pair of glasses that definitely doesn't have any properties in the lenses, clears his throat, and he begins:)

"I hate my roommate, and I would like to annoy them as much as humanly possible. Do you have any tips and tricks for me?"

Well, the people have spoken! What is your take, Aldrip? What would you tell this poor soul?

See you soon, on the next episode of Unnamed Radio Show, by Dazai Osamu!

Oh, he makes a hobby out of pissing me off, but I'm far from the only one. And that's how he catches people off guard later, y'know. Does something nice and friendly, then pulls some asshole move or gets you to be his errand runner forever.

Just don't let him walk all over you, got it? Don't give him an inch, that guy will take a mile.

Chuuhuahua, stop trying to influence my mentees.

[Ignoring Dazai-]

Hmm... okay, I'll keep an eye out! Thanks for the warning, Nakahara-san!

Also I made a bunch of sandwiches that Dazai-san wanted to bring back for all of you. I made them, so as long as he didn't do anything after we parted, they should be safe to eat.

[Smile!]

Dazai, who had to keep an eye on Akutagawa after you left, again? Be glad I'm not telling her any stories.

[Curt. He's at least acknowledging that she seems bright and cheerful and Not Fucked Up, so there's at least some trust there?

There is something quietly bizarre in how Chuuya goes from his deadpan scolding of Dazai to a calmer, more friendly tone with Kotone. It carries a sort of long-suffered familiarity with Dazai's antics.]

And thank you, little miss! I'll be sure to try some as long as the mackerel didn't mess with them. I don't think I caught your name, by the way...?

Mhmmmmmm... Gin.

(DAZAI, NO.

off the charm:)

You wanna tell her, you tell her.

(like, he kinda did, but alas.....)

[orphne]

[Ah, history. She can't hear what Dazai is saying off the charm, but he did say he wants to pair her with one of his mentees so she could "show him things Dazai couldn't," so she gathers they might be talking about him. It doesn't show on her face, but she just nods, unbothered by the change in tone between her and Dazai.]

Oh, I'm Kotone Shiomi. I was a high school student before I came here.
