first page of what will likely be no more than a few page one-shot because i miss rieru and taira and i just can't get enough of exploring taira's life as a neurosurgeon. >;3 (rieru is azelyn's; he'll show up in the next page.)

i think there's something ridiculously hot about his struggle to help people and taking that emotional baggage to a guy (rieru) who really seems to understand the futility of it all. there's something comforting in that, i think. when life is complicated and emotional, having someone there who keeps it simple can be a critical survival tool.

...plus rieru's just fucking sexy. >:D you'll see.
