Summary
"God does not live in your churches."
Gin shuts her eyes tight, focuses on controlling her breathing. She doesn't care about defending the honour of any Gods, she cares that her brother might just be insinuating a sign of disrespect towards her choices, irrational as they might seem to him.
She doesn't turn, doesn't look at him, doesn't make eye contact when she mocks right back, "Where does he live then? In the scars on your body?"
A beat of silence. The silence louder than the anger that tears them apart.
"What do you mean by that?!"
"I mean that my churches might be empty, but that is all they are. Your altars are bloody, Ryuunosuke, and you god is cruel, and don't you see!” Gin feels so desperate saying that, feels so desperate showing the casualty to the very victim of the crime and then begging him to please believe in it, “You are just a boy! You are too young to have these scars."

Summary
"I'm here because I need a tool to fight with, Akutagawa-kun. Why else do you think I sharpen you as a blade, and wield you as a weapon?"
Akutagawa feels foolish to be hurt by the words. It feels stupid to be sad when he knew what was coming, when he knows what is going to come every single one of those times. Akutagawa knows two things - Dazai is not a nice man, and that his attention is all that matters. He understands that the only time his attention is directed towards Akutagawa is when he is feeling mean, and he understands that Dazai needs to wear his cruelty like a glove to maintain any semblance of his humanity. For that, if he needs to be a good dog and lie down and take it, he doesn't possess the agency to object.
OR
Dazai watches Akutagawa fall apart out of exhaustion, and attempts to lend a hand in stitching him back together. But they are both more wounds than flesh, and Akutagawa has never felt more lonelier than in Dazai's company.

Summary
"I apologise for forgetting myself, but it doesn't change the fact you need medical treatment."
"And I don't trust you to deliver it." Dazai replies, immediate and sharp.
Akutagawa doesn't know why he plays these games. He is not allowed to win or lose or draw them. He is the pawn to be sacrificed, the dog to be put down. He berates himself in his head, because what was he expecting? Blood on Dazai's thighs and blood on Dazai's hands and does that make him weak? No, because it doesn't stop there. Blood on his wrist, like a glove, as if Dazai doesn't infect the sickness just as much as this sickness infects him, as if he could be anything else other than a gaping wound and the source of it both at the same time.
OR
Akutagawa finds Dazai in the aftermath of Mori's 'session' with him. Akutagawa realizes his are not the only bones that break.
