THE BOOK

[flamingprick]

[So somebody went looking around in Dazai's room to see if he left a note or something, and he found a book instead! Which he is going to promptly take with him as he goes off to find Akira and Ichigo. Because this feels like something important he should share with them.

And also he can't fucking read this shit either. Someone's going to have to read it out loud to him.

And hopefully he doesn't come across a certain shounen idiot who isn't supposed to be climbing four flights of stairs right now, because that would be a problem. HMMMM.]

SHUT UP!

[Ichigo's yell nearly rattles the walls, as he clutches Dazai's book to his chest.

He's read it all. He's come to understand, in that small, horrible way, Dazai's heart - even if the way he learned is also small and insignificant, what with this book not being entirely about him -

- even trying to minimize his importance, even after death.

He knows. He knows now, and he feels like Akira is right - so he instantly stands, slipping out of Akira's arm and standing before either of them can stop him, moving out of the infirmary at a rate that doesn't seem possible from a severely injured man.

They have to know. Everyone has to know, and then...

...And then he can sleep.]

[that's enough to get Akira to shut up. he jerks back, surprised, ignoring the way the movement pulls at his wounds]

Ichi--

[and then he's shooting a worried look towards Rin, before he scrambles to his own feet and hobbles after him]

Ichigo, wait!

[And there go those two idiots.

Rin really wants to just let them go and do his own thing for a while, but he knows he'll end up regretting it later if either of them fall down and get hurt. So he'll follow behind them, just to make sure they get to wherever they're going without hurting themselves.]
