[All in all, Shizuo had been doing a lot better with controlling himself and his strength. Before seeing Sola fall to his death, Shizuo had been in a relatively good place, and had established a level of confidence that, previously, he had been unable to obtain. His control had been far from perfect, but it had been an improvement.

Then came Sola's death and the fallout with Izaya, and that fragile control had been shattered. And as though that weren't enough, Shizuo was affected by the curse and not only sick, but also weak - a foreign concept to him. Though he's back on what can be considered a better path again, he has regressed, and finds himself with more frequent temper outbursts once again.

There are probably plenty of reasons for it - readjusting to his strength after being so weak the week prior, a delayed reaction to the fear and trauma of Sola's death, or even a way of venting that faint sense of jealousy Shizuo felt over Izaya the evening before. But Shizuo just isn't the kind of guy who over-analyzes his situation. He just goes with the flow.

And going with the flow this time has him erupt on one of the natives - a man who bumped into him just as Shizuo was lighting a cigarette, causing him to drop it. A minuscule offense, but Shizuo's nerves are on edge and rationality is not an option. Up comes a lamppost, and halfway across Vatheon flies the native.

It isn't a source of pride.]
