    Summary

    After, it took weeks before he thought of the twins – really thought of them, two teenagers whose brother he almost—

    It took him weeks to wonder how they must have felt, and now he wonders again, wonders if, just like him, Mairu inhales smoke so she doesn’t have to breathe in the lack of Izaya. God knows there seems to be more of it than there’s oxygen in the city.

    God knows cigarette smoke is nowhere near as bitter.

    Or, Shizuo can't forget Izaya, so he decides to remember him instead.

    Summary

    There are no windows in the Skydome’s cramped detention room so nobody gets the moment that Jay’s nose starts bleeding, dripping heavily into his lap. His hands are still cuffed behind his back. He tries to wipe the blood off on his shoulder and succeeds in smearing it across his lips, over his left cheek. It keeps dripping like a leaky faucet.

    Summary

    Two key truths had remained constant for Jay McCarrol since his childhood: one, Matt was always there; and two, Jay had no real sense of direction in his life.

    On the rare occasions in which he had allowed himself to reflect on it, Jay had always ended up reaching the same conclusion: a change in number one must be the key to changing number two.

    After experiencing a timeline without Matt at his side and making the decision to go back to set things right, though, Jay realizes how much he values the life that they have together, and it finally occurs to him that maybe the purpose that he’s been searching for his whole life has been right there in front of him the entire time.

     

    Or, Jay decides to propose to Matt.

    Summary

    (Webseries era; an irritated and inquisitive Jay decides to finally exercise the authority he’s always known he has over Matt. He kicks him around on the floor a bit and Matt cums in his pants. The end.)

    Matt did well with instruction back then, not just dares and challenges. He was a surprisingly good student. Jay always copied off of him. But when they tossed their caps up on graduation day and no roadmap fell back down into their hands, both stagnated. Matt’s world stayed small, but it was all he needed. Now they were like two fleas running laps on the head of a pin, forever and a day, but would either of them really have it any other way?

    Jay dissolves his miserable daydream with a shake of his head, longing to return to his work at the piano keys. But there’s Matt, on his knees, in seeming supplication for another command.

    Summary

    Eito wonders, is this what connection feels like? This strange, frightening, foreign thing mutating into a vibrant chorus in his chest? It feels as though it's going to devour him.

    The more terrifying fact is he knows he's going to let it.

    Eito bleeds out his hate towards the SDU. Something else must take its place.
