Summary
The night sky is clear tonight. Chuuya’s sure to be welcomed by bright stars if he opens his eyes. He had caught a glimpse of it earlier when he woke up and it’s a sight beautiful enough to give him something to kill time with while he waits. But, opening his eyes will also mean confirming that he’s alone, that Dazai had already left. And, Chuuya isn’t quite sure if he wants to – if he’s ready to – acknowledge that because that’s something new.
~~
Or, Chuuya thinks about Dazai after the fight against Lovecraft. A Dazai character study of sorts.

Summary
“Dazai-san, you’re staring.” Atsushi noticed, finding a spot over the railing next to Dazai. “Hm. I guess so.” He replied, not looking away from the rink. Just for a moment, the brunet’s eyes reflected the bright light from the overhead lights, a bright glow engulfing them. “It’s not that often I have the time to see you guys act so barbaric, it’s very entertaining.”
Atsushi gave the other a light shove. “Is that really what you’re here to see?”
Annoyed, Dazai moved his gaze with narrow eyes towards Atsushi. Before he could shoot back at him, a loud yell from the rink interrupted them. “THE FUCK ARE YOU LOOKING AT, YOU LOUSY PILE OF BANDAGES?!”

Summary
The distance between them is significant, but Dazai can still see Chuuya's quizzical head tilt, almost asking;
You came?
Dazai does a mock bow that makes Chuuya roll his eyes.
You called.

Summary
“I’m not stressed,” Izaya says. “My head is fucking—it won’t fucking stop,” Izaya gasps, fumbling with the unlit cigarette in his hands and accidentally dropping it off the balcony to the street below. Shizuo covers Izaya’s trembling, outstretched hand with his own and pulls their joined hands to wrap around Izaya, and Izaya shivers hard and spins so his face is buried in Shizuo’s chest.
“Fuck,” Izaya says, ragged, and Shizuo holds him tight.

Summary
“You okay?” Shizuo asks, apparently seeing some of the hesitation in Izaya’s expression. The concern only makes Izaya’s heart lurch again, and he disguises whatever it is he’s feeling by pushing past Shizuo into the apartment as if he owns the place.
“I’m fine, Shizu-chan,” Izaya somehow remembers to say, his voice lilting in a good approximation of its normal cadence.

Summary
Izaya cracks his eyes open to look up at Shizuo, and Shizuo offers a small smile, the best he can do when his head feels like this.
“God, I think I’m actually still drunk,” Izaya groans, his eyes falling closed again. Shizuo huffs a laugh and looks at the clock. It’s only 7:30 a.m. They have a long day ahead of them.

Summary
Izaya is almost too breathless to speak, but he manages a nod and tries to lighten his grip at Shizuo’s shoulders, the only thing keeping him upright at the moment. He can feel his mouth quirking in an involuntary smile to match Shizuo’s, and he doesn’t even try to fight it.
“See? Alcohol is a drug—drugs do make it better,” Izaya says, smirking.
Shizuo shakes his head. “Nah,” he says, looking confident and stunning in the light from the moon filtering down into the alley. “Nah, it’s like this every time.”

Summary
Maybe this was inevitable, the unstoppable force meeting the immovable object, and now here they both are, captive to the ebb and flow of their bodies pressing together and shuddering apart just as the tides are captive to the pull of the moon. Maybe this was always fated to happen from the moment they met in the schoolyard, from before they even met, from before they were even born.
“Stop thinking,” Izaya whispers in a voice softer and gentler than Shizuo’s ever heard.

Summary
“Fuck, how the fuck did you fall?” Shizuo asks, clearly as surprised by this occurrence as Izaya is, and Izaya shrugs and watches as Shizuo takes an unsteady breath and sits up so that they’re face to face, Izaya crouched in a kneel and Shizuo sitting straight-backed before him. Izaya’s wrist is caught in Shizuo’s grasp, and how did neither of them actually notice that; how did they not notice the way Shizuo’s hand has reached up to grab onto Izaya’s hair, to tug his head so their eyes are locked on to each other’s. How did they not notice Izaya’s fingers trembling and reaching out as if to grasp comfort, how did they not notice, how?

Summary
The story follows Shizuo Heiwajima after he’s forced to leave his familiar life and travel to Kanto for work. What begins as a routine assignment quickly unravels when a client goes missing, pulling Shizuo into a situation that feels increasingly wrong. In the middle of this uncertainty, he comes face to face with Izaya Orihara—someone from his past he never expected to see again.
As Shizuo searches for answers, old tensions, unresolved emotions, and buried history resurface between them. Izaya’s presence complicates everything, blurring the line between coincidence and manipulation. The story explores suspicion, restraint, and unspoken care, as Shizuo struggles between walking away and staying to protect someone he doesn’t fully trust—but can’t bring himself to abandon.
At its core, the story is about displacement, unfinished business, and two people circling each other through danger and uncertainty, with the question hanging over everything: is this reunion a mistake… or the start of something neither of them can escape?

Izaya doesn't speak of love. He draws it. On mirrors, on sticky notes, on skin. It's his code, his only way to confess, one that no one is meant to decipher.
But Shizuo was always stubborn.Bookmarked by WhyDoWeNeedThis
