Ep 3: Ain't No Sunshine, Part 2

Atsushi cocks his head, "You?"

"Yea, what was my job?"

"Hmmm"

The shot switched between Dazai's beaming face, and Atsushi's pondering face. Atsushi raised a finger to his mouth, "Dazai. Dazai.. Dazai..."

"I have no idea," relents Atsushi.

Kunikida adjusts his glasses, "Don't even bother, nobody knows what he used to do."

Tanizaki beams, "The person who finally figures it out collects a reward, right?"

Atsushi is now on all fours, money flashing in his eyes, "A REWARD!!"

"Yea, that's true," Dazai says, "And because no one has got it, the price has really gone up."

"So just out of curiosity," Atsushi leans off the counter, shaking his butt, ready to pounce on his prey. "How much is this reward?"

"He really is a tiger. Are you even aware that you're doing that? Gin is asking." Said Tachihara. Gin next to him nodded.

"Not really, I mean I never thought of it as odd." Atsushi said.

"Seven hundred thousand yen."

"Atsushi, if we work together we can do this and we can split it. 50/50," said Tachihara

"Oh, okay let's do this." said Atsushi climbing up to look at him more clearly. He wiggled a little bit, back and fore at the idea of lots, and lots of money.

"We've got to plan this out. Do you want to come over here or can I go over there?"

"Yeah, join me over here." Atsushi becked him to the light. 'For money he thought, for money.' Tachihara thought to himself.

Tachihara felt like he was crossing the invisible line. A line that promised death once crossed but he wanted that money sooo.....

"Hey, can I get in on this?" Tanizaki said, breaking his contact with his sister who let out a disgruntled grunt.

"Yes, let's do it, the dream team." Tachihara now crossed the invisible line, and if he didn't know any better. Tachihara felt the dirty stares from the gallery as a whole.

"Yeah!" Atsushi yelled, pumped at the idea of money.

Everyone was in awe of the three as they moved around. Atsushi sitting on the other side of Dazai next to him one the floor Tachihara and Tanizaki. All of them had determined grins on their faces.

Atsushi stares at Dazai, the title card behind him reading, "At the thought of seven hundred thousand yen, a fire is lit under this penniless man"

"If I guess correctly, then all that money is mine?" Atsushi aggressively questions Dazai, and does his signature pose back, "A suicidal maniac keeps his word."

"Pause, where are you gettin' the money from Dazai." said Kunikida, turning to the cause of most of his stress.

"Oh, I have my ways and if all else fails. I'll just con Chibi." said Dazai, looking over to meet the stares of both his partners.

"Huh!" Chuuya roared. "I'm not giving you shit." said Chuuya.

"Oh, so you acknowledge you're a little mini me plus that's why I said con. Chuu~ya. Small brain for a small man."

"You lanky bastard. I'm not giving you shit, period!"

"Soo..." Said Tanizaki, palling at the two.

"Let's just trust we will get the money." Atsushi's eyes sparkled with the promise of a fortune. The other two look at each other then at their leader. They could see the promise of treasure as well. They would forge onward to find this great bounty.
