[Toshi's mental voice sounds a little anxious - he's trying to hide it, but he has no idea when he is, just that finally there are other people around and some of them look familiar]

Hey, what did I miss? Is Souji still here?

[there's a pause, and then he sounds a little calmer, and a little embarrassed]

I got stuck in some weird patch of liminal space where time was all fucked up - watch didn't work right or anything.

I'm sorry, I don't know who that is. I hope you find him.

[nicotinized]

Thanks.

Is there anything I can do to help?

[nicotinized]

I'd say 'let me know if you see him' but if you've never met him, that's probably not that easy here.

[truthvalue]

Right. [Stupid impulse to help.] Maybe if you described him, I could still keep an eye out?

[nicotinized]

Five-six, slender, light skin, of Asian descent, long black hair usually kept braided back. I don't think there's anyone else I know of that fits that description.

Who should I ask for if I do see him?

[nicotinized]

I'm Toshizou Hijikata - there are two of us, but the other one can get in touch with me if need be.

[truthvalue]

I'll let you know if I see or hear anything.

Thanks. I appreciate it.
