The projector roared to life, displaying the card saying, "Apology from ADA Member: Tanizaki Junichirou."
"I-I-I'm Really Sorry!" Tanizaki's words were written out on screen, then were replaced with the man himself slamming his hands onto a table, "I know it was for a test but I was really, really rude to you. I'm a part-timer here at the Agency."
"Um... what is he talking about." said Higuchi.
"Well...If I remember correctly–" Dazai thought back on the day and realized he was royally screwed. In less than twenty minutes, his dirty little secret would be revealed. The detective continued, "It was for Atsushi's entrance test. Tanizaki played a bad guy seeking revenge on the agency, it was a beautiful performance."
"You think so, Dazai?"
"Why of course, with the limited information I gave you and your sister you both played your roles wonderfully."
The two Tanizaki beamed at Dazai's praise.
"I'm surprised you need one of your members to play that role. I'm sure any of your enemies would volunteer. Hell, I would do it." Chuuya threw out.
"Well, they need to be able to reach my chin to qualify."
"Tch, knock it off about my height already."
"Lastly, the true star of the show, Atsushi."
The weretiger looked towards his mentor as he blushed up a storm. "Dazai."
"You did a lovely job and passed with flying colors." Atsushi looked at the floor, he really couldn't take such praise, yet he could hater directed at him but from whom he couldn't tell.
"I wouldn't say that Dazai." Atsushi mumbled out.
"Well, what else would you call it." Dazai inquired from the young weretiger.
"Any idea why we are skipping it, it seems to be important." Said Tachihara, curious about the inner workings of the agency.
"No idea, but at the very least we get to see Atsushi's first job." Dazai said cheerfully. Dazai wondered if this would be an ongoing trend for their viewing experience.
Tanizaki's siblings and Atsushi's eyes bugged out at the statement. It was the day they met the port mafia's dog, Akutagawa. They both ponder how they could forget something so important.
In the background at the bar, Kunikida and Dazai were kicking each other, like children while the poor barista watched.
Tanizaki, formally introduces himself and begged for forgiveness again from the wronged party.
"Nice to meet you, Tanizaki Junichirou. My name is Tachihara." said Tachihara as it seemed to him they hadn't done an introduction.
"Yeah, nice to meet ya too." Tanizaki smiled back at the port mafia member. He was their enemy, but he had grown fond of him.
"I want you to know that I am my brother's most important person." Naomi jumped in, sensing a relationship forming between the two.
"Naomi?"
"I'm just making sure he knows. Big Brother."
"I would never dream of taking him away from you." He stumbled out.
"Good." Naomi said, hugging her brother closer. Said Brother just sighed.
Atsushi waves his hands in front of his face, "It's fine, Don't worry about it."
'He seems nice.' Atsushi thinks.
"And this is," Naomi jumps on him halfway through his introduction, finishing his sentence, "His little sister, Naomi!"
