    Summary

    The press on her heart worsened as her euphoria faded. When the nurses took Izuku aside to be measured, even as fatigue overtook her, Inko kept a keen ear on the action and made herself sick with pointless comparisons.
     
    "Green hair…"

    Like herself. Like father, like son needn’t apply here as it did elsewhere.

    "Forty-seven centimeters…"

    That sounded shorter, but she couldn’t be sure. Not unless she asked for the records.

    "Two-thousand eight-hundred and thirty-four grams…"

    Inko couldn’t remember the exact numbers anymore, but she was certain that Izuku was smaller than his brother had been.

    ***

    Inko Shimura was born. She went to school. She met new people. She fell in love a few times. Her sons were born. She raised one. And eventually, she saved herself.

    Summary

    Lupin, Zenigata, and a skeleton crew of cops are snowed in at the ER over Christmas, and it's bringing back a lot of bad memories for everyone. Thanks to the failed heist that nearly got Lupin killed and a redhead from Zenigata's past, it's also turning into a game of Clue—except, the murder hasn't quite happened yet. Zenigata might be able to clear Lupin of a terrorist bombing and get them out alive, but only if the mystery of the thief's dramatic flashbacks (and his crime) can be solved in time. Unfortunately, Lupin isn't making it easy....

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Arguably one of the best, most gripping pieces of fiction ever written. Re-reading this again and again always feels like coming home.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Actually the perfect short story. There is nothing about this that is not either beautifully or horribly heartwrenching.
