Your ability it was a total mess to use when you needed to at least know a bit about the ghost or ability user, and you needed to negotiate to get access to use the ability of the ghost.
You didn't like it because it was so much trouble, but still, sometimes you were able to know more than what you can see. The ghosts that you already had made a pact, had their own motives to accept giving you information, or their ability, some of them looking for vengeance, other looking for company, or others who only wants to see how their families are doing.
You had to help them first. After all, you were the one asking for their abilities.
Still, when you were wandering around Japan, or most exactly Yokohama for business, in a weird way, one of the ghosts guided you to the cemetery. Obliously, you didn't mind and follow until they disappeared leaving you infront of a grave, only needing you ability to let you see the man siting at the tree that was close to the grave to notice his transparent body. He was a ghost.
"Sorry for disturbing your peace. Do you mind if I join you?" You asked, supposing that it would not kill you to get to know better this new ghost. Seeing how he reacted to you, collected and reserved, he only accepted with a nod, no words.
"You can see me because of your ability, isn't it right?" Without waiting, he just went to the point. Sitting yourself at the side of him, looking at his grave from the back. You hummed.
"It allows me to see ghosts and make pacts with them." There was no point of hiding that, and it seemed that you and him knew that.
"Oda, huh? I'm Y/n." Thinking about his grave, you recalled the name that was in that stone. Only to look at him right now, you probably will look like a weirdo towards some people, talking alone in a cemetery? Yeah, you probably lost your mind.
"There is a real point for you to come and speak with me?" You denied after hearing his words.
"Not really. Some little ghosts guided me towards you. They were kids." Silently, you believed to see how his eyes softened a bit at the mention of kids.
"It's that so?" You nodded once again, only to look at the sky. It was still morning.
"How was your life? If you don't mind me asking." You wondered and didn't bother to stay silent, wanting to know more about him, about what was the reason he now ended losing his life.
At the start, he didn't respond. He didn't find himself answering, but the loneliness at being alone, he doesn't have anything to lose anymore. And with that in mind, he began to comment a bit of him, still not saying all, but the most important thing that he believed important in his life.
He talked about the kids, his normal life, his favorite food, and how he picked up Dazai, Ango. He also commented about his own ability.
And you listened at him, looking at him in silence. He didn't comment about how he died, but the way he commented about his life was enough.
"The way you speak makes me remember about a narrator of a book. You've thought of making one?" You squinted your eyes as you hugged your legs as you tried to keep the talk in a good way.
"I was planning. But in the end, it ended in a foolish dream, I died before even getting to write my ideas"
"That's.. " You didn't know how to respond, even thought there was a lot of more people who didn't get to even finish their dreams, it seemed like a curse for all the artists that died, almost all of them had a regret that stand more than the others, not being able to finish their piece of art.
"Unfortunate, I know."
Silence appeared in the cemetery, alongside the air that made you remember the time. You asked him once more about his life.
"Do you have another regret?"
"I do." As if questioning telling you or not, he only touched the glass that didn't even move even though his finger was touching it. It was as if the sensation of feeling everything was lost.
But something about you made him feel more comfortable than usual, as if you were a close person to him, even though you only met him some hours ago.
"I want to see how is Dazai doing, how much he has advanced in his new life, I want to get the opportunity to speak to him, to... to Ango, too."
You touched his shoulder, only to give him a calm smile with a nod. It was sweet to feel the warmth of other person, after all this time, it was really comforting.
"Let me help with your wish. You don't need to give me anything in reward. Consider a gift from me."
