A/N: Long time no see, my lovelies! It's 2AM on New Years Day and I present you this!
I'm writing from my iPod now so I'll write on the go, now! Yosh!
Ahh.. but anyways… ;;;
I'm exhausted. These classes are really kicking my arse and getting ready for college isn't any fun either. Sigh~ What a pain.
Also, I must impose a question or two on you lovely readers,
What do you think of a prequel? I got ideas for something that began long before the plot of this story and I'd really like to know what you'd think about me writing one on my free time!
This question is for any fans of Shungiku Nakamura's works (Sekaiichi, Junjou, etc.).
Once I'm done with my other stories, how do you feel about stories for those series? I'll put up a poll for prompts and I'd like to see your input!
"So... He's bipolar?" Shizuo scratched the side of his head in confusion as Shinra tried to explain why Izaya behaved the way he did. Or "Izaya" perhaps is a better way to phrase it.
"More like multiple personality disorder." Shinra replied as he finished up stitching Izaya's palm.
When Shizuo arrived at Shinra's, it turns out he wasn't on an "all expense paid trip". He was merely at Russia Sushi for a snack. Damn Izaya setting that up...
Not only did he manage to get treated properly for hour minor injuries from the gangs, but he managed to get a glimpse of what was going on with Izaya. He was being a bigger asshole than usual that day and it really pissed him off, but he wanted to know what the hell was going on. Really, it wasn't because he cared. It was because he wanted a justified reason for beating the shit outta him.
"I really wish you didn't bring him. It really is a pain to treat scums of the earth when Celty could be on her way home any moment." Shinra's smile has yet to leave his face even as he said such cruel things about a patient, despite it being Izaya. "Now I'll have to treat him because that's what oh-so good doctors have to do. It just takes away from my time with Celty and that's very frustrating, y'know..." at this point he was just rambling.
Shizuo just looked at Izaya with a neutral stare and waited for Shinra to finish up bandaging him. His broken nose will probably heal in time, but what caught Shizuo's attention the most was how his hand spontaneously got damaged that badly during their heated argument.
One minute he's pissy, the next he screams like a woman. Remembering the time Izaya's voice rose in octaves amused but confused him. Then his thoughts shifted to the red-eyed Izaya. Is that one of his personalities too? He then remembered that while he was arguing with "Izaya" when he first arrived at his apartment was how in the middle of their bickering, his face softened and his eyes began fluttering closed as his face neared his own.
Was he... Trying to kiss me? The thought of Izaya trying to kiss him made him twitch in both rage and disgust. But when he remembered there was a chance that it wasn't necessarily Izaya, he calmed only a minuscule bit. Another question arose, however.
Why the hell did his alternative persona try to kiss him when this is the first time Shizuo actually acknowledges this... Person? Hell, why would any part of Izaya feel ANY form of attraction towards Shizuo is a better question.
"Who the hell are you...?"
"Well, I'm Shinr- ow! Shizuo! Don't throw my equipment!"
"Roppi-san, please eat." Psyche kept pestering him to eat whatever he was holding in his hand. Hachimenroppi only looked at the plate in disgust and turned his attention back into the open space, ignoring Psyche's consistent whines and pleads.
"Give up, Psyche. No use trying to talk to him." Kanra pointed out. She was still upset with Hachimenroppi and certainly wasn't being subtle about it. "Hibiya's gonna straighten out the situation while Izaya's in comatose," she sat up from her bed and tossed her legs to the side of the bed to better face Hachimenroppi. "And YOU will be taking over in the mean time."
He rose and eyebrow in skeptism. Psyche only bit the bottom of his lip out of nervousness. "Despite my suicidal tendencies, you think it's a good idea for me to take over Izaya's body?" He challenged.
"Isn't it what you wanted? Before Izaya came along and took it from you?" She fought back. This time, Hachimenroppi had no response.
