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
It had been a bright morning in the middle of February, the day after Valentine's. (Now that had been interesting to watch; chocolates and lollipops, flushed-cheeked kids giving each other little notes. She had gotten some herself, but she didn't care to give much response; she cared more to observe the reactions of everyone around her, how the kids with no chocolates cried and cried and cried.)
They set the stroller in the living room, her father grabbing at her wrist to splay her hand toward the matching bundles. "This is Kururi," He indicated toward the baby with the cat blanket, "And this is Mairu," He forced her hand to touch the soft, squirming, puppy blanket.
"You're a big sister," Her mother said softly as if waiting for her reaction.
Nozomi stared at the babies, then looked up at their expectant faces. She didn't know how to respond, didn't know what was proper for her to be feeling, what they wanted, so she just said,
"Oh."

In-depth dive of that trans izaya headcanon, and what that'd all mean, how it'd all work, etc, with a touch of parental neglect.Bookmarked by lavibubs

Summary
"And that brings us to where we are now," there's a rhythm in his tone, sing-song and self-pitying. "On a deserted highway at three in the morning, driving a car with a suspended license. Riding next to the one person I swore to kill, a corpse sitting pretty in the backseat. Wrapped in my favourite coat, no less."
Shizuo laughs then, and it feels like it's tearing his throat. "We're dead men fucking walking,"
izaya has blood on his hands; shizuo has a suspended license and not much else to lose. they bury the hatchet.
