    Summary

    “You know, Ryoma, it strikes me that a little drifting isn’t a bad thing for someone searching for a purpose,” Chiho said. “But I wonder if there is a way to keep yourself... anchored, while you look.”

    “What, like a hobby?” he asked with skepticism bleeding into his voice.

    “If you like,” she answered, undeterred. “Anything that gives you a way to fill your days, at least while you’re figuring out what you want to do with your life now that you’re outside of the game.”

    That was the problem, he thought but did not say. Nobody had bothered to ask if he even wanted to have this strange, second chance at life. Now he was supposed to figure out what to do with it?
