Yeah. I was kinda hoping we could vote Magnus off. I don't believe for a second that he killed in self-defense.

[But what's done is done, and there's not much to do about it now.]

I want to write about stuff that doesn't normally get written about. Like, there's tons of poems on love, or beauty, or whatever. But I tried to write a poem about one of the animals at the petting zoo and it came out really shitty.

I don't either. Yasuda was certain that his friend wouldn't have brought the tiger with him. He also sounded sure the other was asleep. Sanji may have realized he was still awake and decided to hide his tiger in the isolation cabin, only to be caught.

[ They will just have to see if he repeats his actions

Dazai is going to think about. ]

Write about something you actually know and like. You can write about fighting, what your ability feels like, or about Arahabaki.

Why wouldn't he just leave the tiger where he was, though? I don't get that part.

And I don't want to write about any of that. I haven't really won any fights here, so it's annoying to think about. And I don't want to write about my ability or Arahabaki.

If he was awake, he probably figured they would come looking for him or knew where he was. Who knows what he was thinking in those moments.

[ The tiger could have followed being a rebel

Reaching up to run his fingers through Chuuya's hair. ]

Maybe it'll come to Chuuya if we explore some where new tomorrow.

You might be right. And from what Yasusada told me, he tried to leave Sanji out of his plans but Sanji was at least aware that something would happen that night. Sanji might have noticed he was awake and went looking for Yasusada.

...but you know, it can't be an accident that he came across Magnus either. Yasusada had said that they suspected either Yin Yu or Magnus of killing Giyuu. It's too much of a coincidence for Sanji to be targeted for murder by someone they suspected of murder.

[Think Think Think

Those fingers are a nice distraction, though.]

Yeah, maybe. Let's check it out tomorrow.

He also was interested in Sanji's powers before.

[ Digging his fingers into his scalp. ]

Read me something, Chuuya.

From:

shortforever

Yeah? Was he bugging Sanji about it?

[He'll start looking through the poetry book to find something to read to Dazai while he waits on an answer.

From:

shortfornow

Yasuda was saying it just before Taako's confession. That he showed an interest in Sanji's powers.

From:

shortforever

And now he's not even here for me to ask about. That could've been useful to figuring out just what went wrong.

[He'll have to write postcards this week.]

From:

shortfornow

It could. We do need all the data we can get to figure this out.

[ Though at the moment with them being cozy on the floor, he wants to just focus on the red head beside him.

Though... ]

It seems like Yasuda is used to being used.

[ Reminds him of someone, but there's a bigger extreme there with the Swords ]

From:

shortforever

He's one of those weird sword-guys, right? It's probably part of that.

[It's sad, though. Being used is always terrible.]

From:

shortfornow

[ Says the red head who was being used in the past. ]

Yeah, because they used to be the object itself.

From:

shortforever

...like. literally?

From:

shortfornow

Literally. The swords that they carry that shares the same name is who they are. They were swords and their new master gave them human form to fight some kind of battle for him.
