    Summary

    Jin “Jiji” Enjoji is a funny guy, really - a very, very fun guy to be around. Ask anyone you know, and they will probably say, “Oh, yeah, that guy? Funniest guy I’ve ever met.” And then they’d probably laugh and recite some odd story of a funny face he made or a poorly timed joke that had everyone doing the ol’ knee slap and cackle. “He’s fun to be around!” Some would say. “I’m sure all the ladies love his sense of humor!” Others would call out. And they’d all surround him with smiles and pats on his back, laughing with him.

    But mainly laughing at him.

    Well, all except the one and only Ken Takakura.

    Or, in which Jiji is deluded that he needs people to like his funny side for people to want to be around him, and when Okarun refuses to laugh at anything Jiji says, well, let's say... he starts to freak out.

    Summary

    One late spring day, Shane decides to knock on Elliott's door and ask the writer for advice on how to write a card for his goddaughter's birthday.

    It marks not only the beginning of an unusual agreement, but the start of a deeper connection between two completely different, yet equally lonesome people.

    -

    “You know, since I’ve met you, I’ve paid more attention to my emotions,” Shane continued. “It’s difficult for me … to be present sometimes.”

    “What are you feeling now?” Elliott asked when their eyes met again.

    Could it be that the dark circles under Shane’s eyes had faded, if only a little?

    In that moment, everything about him was gentle, Elliott thought. Not at all harsh or even resentful, like he’d often perceived the man from afar, before he’d truly gotten to know him.

    “I can’t really say,” Shane replied quietly. “Because I’ve never felt like this before.”

    Summary

    All at once, Stirling came into consciousness.

    It was an odd, almost over-stimulating feeling- but that’s just the thing. He was thinking his first thoughts, feeling his systems boot up, hearing a voice.

    “Hello? … are you on yet?”
