   Summary

   The semi-sentient god that posesses Chuuya is one that Dazai's family has worshipped for centuries. Take the Mafia's most powerful duo and throw them into an undercover mission disguised as traumatized teenagers at U.A. High for aspiring heroes.

   (OR: Dazai worships Arahabaki. Chuuya carries Arahabaki. "What do you mean we need to infiltrate the heroes?")

   "And this pure, brutal love, like everything holy, burns the eyes of Humans who observe it, that's why they'll never see the terrible beauty of it all."
