Chuuya went to Dazai's apartment, worried since he wasn't responding to messages, only to find him staring at nothing on the couch, without his bandages. He seemed completely out of it, almost as if he was having a panic attack. Chuuya tried calling out to him a couple times, but it took a while for him to respond, and he did so with a "sorry", which was unusual.

"Don't make me regret this, Mackerel..."

Chuuya sighed and took off his gloves, hugging Dazai from behind to try and ground him.
