The stink of alcohol didn't escaped his nose. So you choose to drown yourself with alcohol..? It wasn't a choice he couldn't understand. He was hoping Darc wouldn't end up picking this route. Izaya would rather have him slashing every trees in the biodome than to dull himself in drunken stupor. But it wasn't something he had control over and even if he was slightly disappointed, he swallowed it and accepted that his selfishness had destroyed the pride of a person who had sacrificed everything in order to protect him. He was to blame for what happened to the half-drakyr king.
Him alone.
"So it seems."

Occupied with his thoughts, he absent mindedly tried reaching out for a wound a little too far back for the comfort of his injured hand to clean. Not wanting to appear even worse than he already was, he bit back the groan from stretching his wound. "You should probably leave."

That all... doesn't matter.
While everyone else is probably going to punch him out for 103, Riku doesn't want to talk about that. Riku wants to talk about Darc -- because what happened to Darc isn't fair at all.
His thoughts aren't very organized, but that's fine.
Riku steps into the room after a moment of hesitation. He doesn't knock, just lets himself into the still-bloody room.]
Izaya.

[He's not surprised when Riku walks in. For being the only other person Darc trusted other than himself, he more or less expected his arrival. He doesn't look up from treating his injuries, merely nods and acknowledges Riku's entry to his room.]
If you are here to punch me, then don't hold back. Otherwise, hi.

[He sits down in the desk chair, looking the room over. Last time he was here, Darc was sitting on the floor getting wasted. It's about the same now, except Darc's not around. Riku folds his arms, not sure how to begin. He should have... written it down, or something. But that's okay. He'll just start where it feels most natural.]
... I just want to talk, to be honest. Ask some questions. Form an opinion. You know.

[Patching himself up is a lot harder than usual but that's mostly because there are more injuries on him than he would usually suffers from. Val not healing him is proof that he's right about his own usefulness wearing thin and he's not going to lie to himself and pretends that things are still fine and dandy.]
[He'll settles everything he has to and hopefully leave enough to continue facilitating the evolution of his beloved humans... even if they hated him so.]
Ask then. I'm in no position to deny you anything when I'm in this condition. It'll help if you could offer a Cure though, beats trying to answer you while I'm stingy in pain.

Once everybody had left, once there wasn't any heartbeats in the room except for Izaya's... Clark hovered in front of his room and knocked on the door.
Always polite.]
Uh, Izaya? It's me, it's Superman. Are you- do you need a healer or something by the sort?
Reply
Come in, Clark. I'll like you to hear me out again.
[There wasn't any need for him to hide his nature or his knowledge anymore. He wasn't going to bother keeping up with his good little mask any longer. He had things to finish and he will accomplish them before his time ran out.]

What gave my name away?
[Careful, careful as he walks closer to Izaya. He's obviously not as trustful as he was during their first meeting, but you can't really blame him. He's had Bucky nagging him about it since day one.]
Reply
Don't beat yourself over it. The only thing I cannot see in the network is what's locked beyond the super code provided by Val.
[Clark's reaction was nothing short of what he predicted. The map he had given him must have stirred quite a ruckus among the caped superheroes. About time they get off their lazy bums and do something.]
Are you willing to listen to me again?

Kenzi hovered by the door when she heard him moving around on the other side of it. Her hand gripped the doorknob, but she couldn't will herself to turn it. Everyone hated him, but had anyone really asked why he'd done it? Kenzi had a few things that none of them had. Faith. Trust. Loyalty.
She was probably an idiot for having any one of them where Izaya was concerned. He probably didn't even care that she was here. To him... she was likely just another pawn.
"... Izaya?" She opened the door slowly.

Kenzi reminded him of those girls back home. Those who knew just how horrible he is and yet willingly allow him to use them. Some even gave their life willingly, loving him unconditionally, just as every human should. It's foolish considering what kind of person Izaya is but endearing all the same.
"Come in and close the door, sweetie." His voice was no more than a whisper. Seated on the bed, he was packing and cleaning some items and letters.

Despite all the shit he put her through, he'd still been there when she needed him. You can't just turn your back on someone because of their past.
"Soooo... your boyfriend killed you. Shitty luck. Everyone else kind of wants to beat the crap out of you, too. Is there a plan?"
Reply
He was there so that he could use her, not that she didn't know. But it was fascinating to observe, that some people are able to accept someone despite what they did while some would shove and push them away like they're some kind of plague.
"My ex-husband, if you want to be technical about it. I'm aware of that. They can do that once I'm done with what I need to do." He paused from pushing a folded piece of paper into an envelop, "You'll help me with that."
