#celty's neck shadows hardest part to edit it -_-

Just took my t-shot, and thought about Shizuo taking his. Do you think he has to do it harder because of his thick skin/muscle (as evidenced by that one illustration in the books where Izaya stabbed him and the knife barely went in)? If you have any more thoughts on this, I'd love to hear them!
thank you so much for the ask, i was hoping to do a trans shizuo post for pride month and you gave me the much needed inspiration! kind of late but from when you sent this we also take our t shots close together ehehe :3
supposedly it’s his muscle that is steel-like which is why he still bleeds/gets cut easily, but i believe shizuo is a t patch wearer for that reason and a few others!!
injection requires a precise hand and patience he does not have (esp early on or before the series) where a patch requires none. and a patch is easy to hide under his bartender get-up and the go to thought for anyone who DOES see it and has ever been in his vicinity for more than 15min would be "oh, nicotine patch." he wouldn't even have to lie about it if someone pressed what the patch is for! in either case the answer is the patch works to keep him from murdering anyone for asking!! :D
the funniest option would be injection tho. hands down. like just imagine. shinra hunkered down next to him with a steadily filling sharps trap after abandoning subcutaneous injection bc of his twig arms and legs and shizuo nearly kicked his head in like a horse when his fingers went groping his stomach, so he has to try for intramuscular with different needle sizes, different angles, different locations.... there's a comedic back and forth of shinra telling shizuo to relax but only in ways that would make him more pissed and tense and having to walk it back lest he be the next thing shizuo snaps. celty is there watching on in horror.
(non-artist's rendition)
when she mentions in the novels that she watched shizuo and shinra converse before and it was like watching someone handle live dynamite - this was the conversation she meant, trust me.
#personally feel it wouldnt be out of character for others to think if he was using a nicotine patch to quit#he would use it wrong and keep smoking <3#or for him to justify taking little smoke breaks with it on and actually use it wrong lol#durarara#shizuo heiwajima#shizuoposting#trans shizuo hours#celty's neck shadows hardest part to edit it -_-
