The Man in Black would had agreed. He went far as to entrust us with a secret, to work together. The role of the White Reaper may ended, with a different role to fulfill.
Pave your path Weretiger. Where it leads is yours alone to decide. The dojo where I’m staying are accepting strays. I’ll tell you the truth there, not on this device.
... This is a lot for me to take in. The Chuuya-san here doesn't accept me as one of the Port Mafia. Dazai-san here... isn't Dazai-san. He is not my superior.
I don't know what I'm supposed to become, if not the White Reaper of the Port Mafia, Akutagawa. And being myself... is out of the question.
About time you swallowed it. And if anyone from the Armed Detective Agency arrives, they’ll probably see me as an enemy. It’s hysterical. In the end, its really only us.
Fool, you have all the time to figure it out. Now you know where to find me.
[ It's a lot for him to handle really. The Dazai-san he knew was not the true one and as for the true one's whereabouts... Atsushi still can't find it in his heart to accept the truth from Akutagawa. If he did... his foundation would completely crumble. ]
How do you feel, Akutagawa? Knowing there's a different you out there?
[It takes time for this reply to go through. There are some mix feelings. Akutagawa, a port mafia? It’s laughable. Then again, there is one thing that guy has which this one doesn’t.]
Jealous. He has a better relationship with his sister than I dream for. Me? A Port Mafia?
[ It's laughable. Back then in the café when they chatted, Atsushi didn't think he would find someone so similar to him. And this conversation they're having right now makes him remember that. ]
We're the same, Akutagawa. I'm jealous of the Atsushi who's on 'the side of saving people'. I don't think I could hate myself much more than this.
[It is like that cafe time. Two neutral people with a common history, lost boys. Dazai had ask to him to befriend the other so… maybe its the side of ‘good’.]
Gin told me the PM only kill with rationality and reasons. You are not an evil person Weretiger. You may not remember yet, but I’ve seen it during our encounter.
I’m someone of evil. That’s what you and my sister told me, but I don’t want my fate to end with this. So, will you stay in the hole, or use your claws to climb back up?
I don't know where my fate is. As long as Dazai-san is 'alive' to me, I am his claws and fangs. But... if what you're saying is really true and Dazai-san is no longer a part of my life...
I will use these claws for myself and protect people.
