 Dazai was in a crisis. He sat at the kitchen table with a very serious aura surrounding him. His facial expression was stoic, and he had his hands pressed together in front of his face as his elbows rested on the table. He heard the front door open and close and in walked his adopted daughter, Athina Oda. The girl stared at him with an eyebrow raised and slowly– ever so slowly did he turn his head to look at her.

It was silent.

"I'M SO OLD AND DECREPIT!!!!" He suddenly threw himself at the girl and became hysterical.

"ARGH?! GET OFF OSAMU!" Athina yelled. The man didn't listen, he gripped onto her collar and started babbling nonsense.

"I'm not that old! Am I really that old? How fast does time move?! I want to die beautiful, not as a wrinkly old man!"

"Osamu–"

"How come Jenna can't just stay the same age? Better yet! Why can't she just stay a little girl! Even if it's just for a little while–"

"Osamu!"

"Why! WHY?! What can I do to stop this endless cycle of age!"

"OSAMU!!" Athina finally got the man's attention. She pushed him and he fell to the floor. "Jenna's birthday is next week. While she's at school right now, I just ordered her a cake."

Dazai sighed. "Athina, weren't you listening to my woes?!"

"Frankly, no. No, I wasn't." She rolled her eyes. The man got up, and dusted himself off.

"Ugh! I can't believe it's Jenna's birthday! Where does the time go?!"

The girl clicked her tongue. "Did you get her a gift?"

Blink blink

"A... gift?"

Athina huffed and started pulling him out the door by his hair. "You're a terrible father! To the mall we go!"

"ACK! Athina! Let go!"


As Dazai and Athina were on their way to the mall, there was a certain pair of men that had beat them to the punch...

Akutagawa and Nikolai stared at each other. One scowled and scoffed angrily while the other smiled crazily and giggled.

"What are you doing here?" Akutagawa asked Nikolai as they stood in the Plushie Shop at the mall.

"What are you doing here? Seems like a strange place to be for a Port Mafia member!"

"Says the terrorist!" Akutagawa tsked. "Now, what are you doing here? Did you follow me?"

"Not at all! It's all a coincidence I swear! I came here to get Polka Dots a birthday gift since I know she loves these little guys!" He pokes at one of the plushies on the shelf.

Akutagawa grit his teeth. "That's what I'm doing. You're stealing my idea. Get lost, clown. I claimed this place first." Rashoumon was quickly summoned and the other people– some of which are children– started to get nervous (babies started crying...).

Nikolai sighed, his smile still plastered on his face. "Oh, Aku~ You're so funny!"

"I don't remember giving you permission to call me that–"

"I distinctly remember walking into the store before you. As I had spotted you just entering as I was looking for a lovely gift. If I had known any better, I'd say you were stealing my idea." He then gasped dramatically, grabbing a plushie off the shelf and wiggled it in Akutagawa's face as he spoke, making it look like the plushie itself was saying his next words. "Jenna would surely hate you for that, you big copycat!" He said in a higher pitched voice to mimic the plushie.
