Chuuya blankly drank the miso soup that Ali had prepared for him, dully noting how there was a lot of tofu in there. He was clearly trying to process what the hell happened while he was passed out.

"Does it taste good?" Ali asked, sipping some of the miso soup out of the small bowl.

Chuuya nodded, "Yeah... There's a lot of tofu though." Then he slammed his bowl onto the table. "AND HOW THE FUCK DID I GET HERE?!" He finally asked.

Ali glanced at the soup that had spilled onto the table, "The tofu's kind of a habit... And you spilled some soup." She pouted, leaning forward to wipe it off.

"Oh sorry about that." Chuuya said, taking the napkin next to him and wiping away the drops of soup.

The two stayed in an awkward silence before Ali cleared her throat, "So you want to know how you got here?" She asked, staring at Chuuya.

"Yes!" Chuuya responded quickly, looking at Ali expectantly.

...

Chuuya jumped towards the door, "I'M GONNA KILL THAT BASTARD!!!" He yelled, adjusting his coat as he ran to the door.

Grabbing him by the waist, Ali pulled him back, "NOT ON MY WATCH!"

Ali clung to Chuuya desperately, trying to stop him from leaving her room. "Don't kill Dazai! He'd probably like that!" She tried to reason, tightening her arms around his waist.

Chuuya hissed as he tried to push away Ali, "Yeah! That's why I'm gonna keep him alive as I rip off his skin!!!" He screeched, clawing at her door.

Next door, Atsushi was wondering if Ali needed help or not.

"That's besides the point! I'm not letting you hurt kidnap him or something!!!" Ali shrieked, lifting Chuuya from the ground and tossing him into the same room as Q.

"Oh yeah... This kid." Chuuya said, glancing at Q, who was tied up next to him.

Ali glanced at Chuuya warily, "Just take the kid and leave." She said, motioning at Q and then pointing at the door.

Even if he's weakened by corruption, I doubt I could beat him... So I need him to get out of here now.

Chuuya picked up Q by the back of their shirt, "Fine... Also, why'd you help me anyways?" He asked, looking at the bandages on his arms.

"Well I'm legally a doctor so..." Ali told him, fidgeting as Chuuya watched her expectantly.

And also I wouldn't be able to sleep well if I just left you there...

Sighing, Chuuya ran his hand through his hair. "Thanks... Gimmie your phone." He instructed, holding out his hand.

"Why?" Ali asked, holding her phone close to her chest as she backed away, eyeing Chuuya suspiciously.

"I'm giving you my number. I owe you now." He said, as if it was obvious, still holding out his hand.

I mean... This won't hurt me.

Ali unlocked her phone, hiding her Scaramouche wallpaper from Chuuya as she pulled out her contacts page.

Chuuya took the phone out of her hands and typed in his number, "Here. Call me if you need help." He told her, before leaving with Q.

...

"So Ali... There was a lot of screaming coming from your room." Atsushi told Ali as the two were walking to work.
