Summary
The Crossing of the Bridge is a ceremony that requires each new emperor or empress, on the first solstice of their reign, to walk the entire length of the bridge over the Istandaärtha from eastern to western shore, alone save for their nonecharei, carrying nothing but a brazier of incense. We can be relatively sure that this tradition traces its roots to the very creation of the Wisdom Bridge, and that the first emperor to enact it was Edrehasivar the Seventh.

Summary
Dazai appears on the street, head turning around before he fixates on the motorbike and its rider. He makes an immediate beeline for them, and though Atsushi can't see their face for the helmet blocking it, he hopes they can see his face and the get away immediately look he’s sending in their direction.
They don't kick off of the pavement and roar away into the traffic, so either they don't see him or have chosen to ignore him. He spares a small prayer for the person, about to turn away from whatever scene is about to commence outside when Dazai steps right up against the person, far too close for it to be at all friendly.
He winces, squinting his eyes until they're almost shut, waiting for the inevitable attack on Dazai. The person doesn't react at all, leaning back a little further and not winding up to punch Dazai square across the jaw.
---
Or: five times Dazai’s co-workers observe his interactions with his...spouse (?), and one time the confusion is (mostly) removed.
