Round 4 PC post with Dazai

[guileturncoat]

Dazai's quarters can be found in the studio building. It's one of the doors off of the main hallway, not far from the stage itself. The door itself is labeled with his name. Most of the time it is unlocked, but he does lock it at night or when he's with someone else.

There is an open parlor area, with a couple couches and a low table. Off to one side of the room is a taller table with some booze bottles on it, all still mostly-full. On another wall is a door, which presumably goes to another part of his quarters, maybe his bedroom? And there is also a table and desk chair to one side, which appears to be a working space. All of the walls are lined with bookshelves, which are full of countless books.

Feel free to knock, or walk right in if the door is open.

[Dazai had been reading a book on his couch, completely unaware of any visitors since they usually knock.

But when Azura speaks up he jumps and nearly drops his book in shock, looking around frantically to see who all just entered his office.]

Do I need to put a bell on your neck or something?!

[prayerwheel]

[ oh, she spooked him, too. thanks for not throwing a sandwich at her, buddy ]

That may be beneficial. I'm much quieter than I intend to be, apparently.

[guileturncoat]

[He may have been startled at first, but he's absolutely rolling with it now, changing back to his usual playful self.]

Maybe instead of a bell, it could be one of those jingly belts like what dancers wear.

[prayerwheel]

With the hanging sequins? I believe I have one of those in my closet somewhere.

[ the closet in Michigan. RIP ]

[guileturncoat]

I'll have to see if I can find you one! I bet the costuming department has one.

[prayerwheel]

If it prevents more objects from being thrown at me, I'll wear it without complaints.

[guileturncoat]

Oh come on, I didn't even throw anything at you!

[prayerwheel]

You look like you might have.

[ gesturing to the book ]

[guileturncoat]

Not this piece of literary art.

[It's Blade Runner: the novel.]

[prayerwheel]

...you're reading a novelization of Blade Runner?

[ she's trying not to judge

but she's judging ]

[guileturncoat]

Why not? It was a book first anyway.

[The novelization of the movie is very different from the book that Blade Runner is based off of.]

[prayerwheel]

It was a book that was turned into a movie that was turned into a book. Things like that rarely carry any actual quality in them.

[ actually she's gonna go over to his book shelf and see what else he has

can she find the austin powers novel ]

[guileturncoat]

[Yes, it is there.]

How dare you insult the quality of my books.

[He sounds mock-insulted.]

[prayerwheel]

[ She just

holds up the austin powers novel

looks him straight in the eye

dares him to explain his taste ]

[guileturncoat]

Okay, that one is genuinely funny because it's trashy.

[prayerwheel]

[ a smile. okay that's fine. she'd be worried if he thought it was actual great literature. ]

Is that what you enjoy? Ironically enjoying bad books based on movies?
