Summary
EMPATHY – Something’s wrong. The Togata you know and love isn’t humanly capable of finding wisdom in voices other than his own. And he’s still red-faced--
LOGIC [Medium: Failure] – Admittedly, people do get a tad…*steamed* when physically near you, and he’s part of that majority, but you’re not *that* close to each other. You can’t be. He’s not wearing his spacesuit. This whole thing reeks of actual, diagnosable illness.
YOU – Sorry, the Togata I what?
Agni, Togata, a quest for cigarettes, and whoever has the misfortune of bumping into them. Featuring: the voices in Agni’s head.

Summary
There it is. The faintest incline of his thumb. L’appel du vide.
“We don’t have many spots left.”
Denji waits. Then, without warning, he plucks the card from Yoshida’s hand; barely pinched between two fingernails, like it’ll burn him if he holds more than just a corner. Nevertheless, he takes it.
Say you’re the average San’ya street kid and a mysterious, suited stranger offers to play menko with you. This leads to two distinct discoveries: you absolutely suck at menko, and Tokyo’s got 455 others who empathise with your troubles.

Summary
Again, it’s Agni who breaks the silence. “I’ll come with you.” His promise quivers in the bare inches between them. Togata remembers that this is probably the closest he’s been to another human in multiple years. Explains the heavy breathing.
His frustration departs through means of a long, shaky sigh: a funnel of steam, which – restive – soon twirls up, up, and away into non-existence. (The ephemeral.)
“Great.” Somehow, he sounds more put-together than Agni. “Well, let’s get going.”
In another timeline, Togata burns to death after saving Agni from a watery grave. In this one – the one where Agni lets him go – things turn out a little differently.

Summary
“Do you know how to use a gun, Sang-woo?”
Gi-hun, Sang-woo thinks. Gi-hun, Gi-hun, Gi-hun.
The answer is yes. Although both of them know what Sang-woo would do if God pressed a loaded pistol into his hand.
Unlike most guards, Sang-woo only has two problems. One of them is that, even four years post-resuscitation, he still thinks he has nothing left to lose. His other problem is a repeat offender who goes by the name of Seong Gi-hun.
