there are many explanations for that. perhaps because vulnerability is scary, or because they think they can handle everything on their own, and asking for help is unimaginable. perhaps because being seen is horrifying, and telling someone else something bothers them is looking right into that. perhaps they're scared of intimacy!
(he knows exactly. shinji, because she hasn't put him on the list. she asked him if she should tell someone the truth about something. so, she did, and now shinji's mad at her, and won't talk to her if she's asking why boys don't talk, huh? oh, the simple math. he's so glad he's drunk as fuck.)
when you were processing when i made you upset, we had time and space to work it out, didn't we? perhaps it's simply part of his process of dealing with things.
he might know that he doesn't have to and choose to anyway. that's his choice. what you can do is keep yourself as a support option, but whether he comes or not?
(this time, it's much less depressive. it just looks like dazai's gone camping a little bit, his bottles, water, some snacks, a lamp, and he writes down biochemistry on the chasm wall, drinks a little, and goes back to his puzzle. drinks a little, starts another -- he told akira he'd really teach him molecular chemistry for mixology purposes, so he's here writing the first challenge as he refuses to think.)
[Thank God, honestly. She didn't know what to expect, considering the last time she and Chuuya found him in a hole in the mountains.

you help me by existing. next?
no subject
I can't give you a lot of details. It's not my story to tell.
But I told someone something maybe I shouldn't have, and I think he's caught up in his own head and doesn't know how to process it.

Mmm.
[The text can't quite carry her broken little noise, but it's the closest it can get. And yeah, okay, they both know it's about Shinji, fine!]
I just don't want him to think he has to do stuff all alone.

Why are you in the hole in the mountain right now, Dazai-san?
no subject

no subject
[Time to go exist in Dazai's vicinity, then! Apparently that's how she helps him. Let her get her shoes...]

[Wearily as she drops down near the snacks.]
