week 4 - izaya - saturday, post-trial

[completelycrazy]

[This is not going to be a fun conversation. Hell, Newt half thinks Izaya might just slit his throat on the spot. He's not sure what the rule is on murdering outside of curfew, but he has a feeling Izaya won't care about that, either.

But he needs to get this over with.

He finds him in the Italian place, which... Is poetic. Ugh.]

Guess we should talk, huh?

Comments

[completelycrazy]

I... Maybe? I don't know.

[But Izaya's right. It does sound likely, just, yikes. This is really coming out of left field. He's gonna need time to process.]

If she's really a Reaper, we're in good hands. I trust her.

[voyeur]

Is that so?

[A knife appears from Izaya's sleeve and slams into Newt's left shoulder. But that's merely a distraction, because a second knife has gone through Newt's right hand, straight through, to pierce into the table. And he twists.]

You trust a girl who feigns sorrow and embraces self-righteousness, who would leave a man's corpse in a 'respectful' and 'peaceful' repose although that man cares nothing for such things and would have wanted his death to be seen as the ugly thing it was. In other words, you trust someone who deludes herself and projects her ideals onto others against their wishes. Yeah, you trust that kind of person, but when it comes to someone who's honest about the kind of guy he is, you decide to kill.

[He twists. He twists and twists and twists, so that the wound will not be simple, so that it will be difficult to heal.]

Ah, that's funny, that's really funny! That you'd pick the self-righteous hypocrite who thinks she's a hero over the honest villain who does not ask forgiveness for what he's done! Truly, the way humans decide who to trust is remarkable, it's always, always remarkable to me! I love your humanity that decides to spit on an ugly truth in favour of a saccharine lie, I love it with all my heart!
