Summary
“People speak sometimes about the ‘bestial’ cruelty of man,” Ivan read, his lips curving around each word with delicacy, “but that is terribly unjust and offensive to beasts. No animal could ever be as cruel as man, so artfully, so artistically cruel.”
Till could feel his breath catch in his throat as Ivan paused.
“Do you believe that?” Ivan whispered.
“Believe what?”
“That human beings were so cruel?”
***
Or, seven years after Round 7, Ivan and Till are reunited under extreme circumstances.

Summary
He couldn’t dare let himself glance at Till. Was it not enough to be staggering in the swells of his own thoughts? To see him, to know it would be the last, fleeting moment of admiration, of devotion, before the jaws of death and the blackness of its stomach could blot out every evidence of it, would surely cause him to do one of the unspeakable what-ifs that Ivan had filed away a long time ago.
Those what ifs, the patterns that spiraled and kaleidoscoped in rhythmic beams of ecstasy and sorrow.

Or, a glimpse into Ivan's thoughts during Round 6.

Summary
Ibe-san held him. And kept holding him. Eiji wasn’t sure if he could say it outloud, but it felt like everything around him was trying to keep him from falling into a million pieces. As if when Ibe-san let go, as if when his breath was released and his ribs stopped feeling taut like guitar strings, he would crumble into a thousand shards.

Eiji grieves.

Summary
“Chuu-ya, it’s rude to wake someone up with a phone call,” the man’s voice sang over the speaker like a lifeline, and Chuuya would drink ten times over the next day for the way his heart skipped a beat for it.
“Shitty mackerel,” Chuuya finally choked out, disgruntled by how strained he sounded, “you weren’t sleeping.”-
There are some nights where Chuuya is lost to the fears and hatred of Arahabaki. Dazai mends these unseen wounds.
