What do you think of him?

Highschool au

As Elise approaches Chuuya in the field during break, she can't resist the urge to ask him about the infamous Dazai.

"So, Chuuya," she begins, a mischievous glint dancing in her eyes, "what do you think of Dazai?"Chuuya's expression darkens, his scowl deepening as he glances at her with a look that could curdle milk. "Isn't it obvious?" he retorts sharply, crossing his arms defiantly. "He's my arch-nemesis. I hate him."

With a nonchalant shrug, he returns his attention to his lunch, seemingly unbothered by the topic at hand.

Elise can't help but smirk at his reaction. "Oh, really," she muses, her voice laced with amusement and a hint of teasing skepticism. 

She decides to leave him be, sooner or later he'll get out of his denial.

As Elise passes by the storage room after school to retrieve some papers for the council, she hears muffled voices emanating from within. Curiosity piqued, she decides to investigate.Pushing the door open ever so slightly, she strains to hear the conversation. Among the voices, one unmistakably belongs to Chuuya.

"Ugh, did you seriously hurt yourself again? Luckily I have spare bandages. You have to take better care of yourself!"

Suppressing a chuckle, Elise peers through a small gap in the door, confirming her suspicions. Inside, Chuuya sits on a stool, tending to Dazai's injured arm with a mixture of annoyance and concern. Dazai, sporting his trademark grin, gazes up at Chuuya with an expression of fondness as Chuuya carefully wraps the bandage around his wound.

"My cute, worrisome slug~" Dazai teases, earning a playful smack from Chuuya."Shut up," Chuuya retorts, though his tone lacks its usual bite.

Amused by the scene, Elise leans back and decides to leave them to their moment, heading off to collect the papers she initially came for.

Bonus scene

Elise couldn't help but chuckle as she posed the same question to Dazai when she crossed paths with him in the bustling halls of the school.

"What do you think of Chuuya?" she inquired, her curiosity evident in her tone.Dazai's lips curled into a mischievous smirk at the question, his eyes gleaming with amusement. "Well, if you must know," he replied with a playful twinkle in his eyes, "it feels great having a husband~"

Just as Elise was about to respond, Ango happened to walk by, his expression a mixture of concern and exasperation. "Please," he interjected, his voice tinged with a hint of urgency, "graduate before marrying anyone, Dazai."

Elise couldn't help but burst into laughter at Ango's remark, while Dazai simply flashed a grin, clearly enjoying the banter.
