Fun fact I learned from drawing the SB epilogue scene:
The epilogue says Chuuya was on a road in the San'in region. I looked up where that was on a map, out of curiosity for how far away that was from Yokohama:
Then, knowing Asagiri loves references (as should be), I went on a little wikipedia hunt and found that the Nakahara Chuuya Memorial Museum was built where his father's clinic was established after the war. The house's description and what was around it in the novel's translation didn't seem to match the museum, so I ended up improvising a new place. However, using that as a reference point for where the in-world house and clinic was, we get:
an 11 to 12 hours drive to get there
Chuuya showed up on his motorcycle. Akutagawa and Higuchi were already there in a mafia car. They all DROVE there!!! Chuuya stayed for like half an hour to watch from afar before just leaving!!!!!!!
look me in the eye and tell me this isn't one of the coolest shots in any star wars tv episode. and don't even get me started on when his voice overlapped with Vader's-
something something tma starts with an anglerfish luring you in, something something tmp starts with a canary telling you to get out while you still can

the sob in Percy's voice when he says "I didn't mean to-" because he's so horrified at what he just did. Luke was the boy he trusted, the boy he admired, the boy he told his mom about because when they met he was so relieved and sure he'd finally made a friend.
and now Percy, whose fatal flaw is personal loyalty, who is actively being stabbed in the back, is convinced that he himself is the one doing the betraying. he's hurting Luke, and the guilt of it is going to tear him apart from the inside out.
i'm fucking sick. i just remembered that each time that n reached out to the girls that he loved, asking them to let him help them and it just got him hurt in the end
