Everything has changed.

(Y/n) (L/n) has returned to the Armed Detective Agency as a permanent member. Not only from the horrors and challenges she witnessed during the battle against the Guild, but also from the people she met and reunited with along the way. One of those people included the agency's own, Osamu Dazai.

Now, (Y/n) faces a whole other set of challenges. She must now balance her growing social life with her work life - on top of that, she and Dazai must plan their wedding. But what happens when ghosts of the past come back to haunt her, not only in her dreams but in her life?

Everything has resurfaced.

This is the final book in 'The Beauty of Water' series. I highly recommend reading the first two books before reading this one.

All characters and plots from Bungo Stray Dogs do not belong to me and all credits go to their original owners.
This is a Dazai x Rem!Reader, so I will be using she/her pronouns.

Warning: There will be mentions of violence, torture, and suicide (have you met Dazai?) throughout this book.
