Sigma

character and interaction.
With Ranpo: neighborhood provides occasion for casual encounters and short dialogues; Ranpo jokes, but at a critical moment, he unexpectedly appears nearby.

With Yosano: she unobtrusively checks that he has everything he needs, and leaves the contacts of the support services — this is not about "guardianship", but about professional care.

With Atsushi and Kyoka: they can come in with food or just sit in silence - for Sigma, this is more important than long conversations.

The city is Yokohama. Japan.

Where the agency's employees live.

The agency's office is the fourth floor of an old brick building on a slope near Yokohama harbor. This is their main base, not housing.

Ranpo Edogawa — in the spirit of the character, it is logical that he lives somewhere near the office: it is important for him to be there quickly, plus he loves cafes and snacks on the way. You can give him a small apartment in an old house with a lot of books and strange things.

Doppo Kunikida is most likely a neat rented apartment in a quiet area: he is a pedant, silence is important to him for planning things.

Atsushi Nakajima - at first he lived at the agency / in a cheap room, then he could move to a modest, but clean version: a sense of security is important to him. Kyoka lives with him.

Akiko Yosano - Can live in a more expensive, but not pretentious area: she cares about comfort and the ability to quickly get to places where her skills may be needed.

Junichiro and Naomi Tanizaki – often depicted as living together; It is logical to give them an apartment in a lively but cozy area overlooking the city - where it is convenient to receive guests and monitor the situation.

Given
his past (Sky Casino, loss of control of the place, esper status, prison):

Area: closer to the center of Yokohama, but not in the noisiest place - he needs to be in touch with the agency and at the same time have a "safe haven" where he can go when emotions run high.

Type of housing: studio or small one-room apartment in a mid-rise building, no frills. The interior is minimalistic, but with details that refer to the casino: a clock, playing cards (as a reminder, not as an attribute of the game), a mirror that he almost never uses.

Practicality: near a café, a pharmacy, bus stops - it is important for him to get to the office quickly and have options where to go if it gets tough.

The root of severity
Sigma assembled himself from nothing. There were no parents who taught him what was good and bad. There was no childhood where you learn boundaries through mistakes. There was no teacher who would say "this is the right way." He appeared, and all he had was emptiness and the need to be.
Therefore, he built the rules himself. Not strangers, but friends. And precisely because they are his, he clings to them with the desperation of a man who has nothing else.

Sigma is strict with words. He does not throw promises, does not say "I'll cover you" or "everything will be fine." He says "I'll try" or "I'll do what I can." Because he knows the value of an unfulfilled promise - he himself was a victim of strangers: Fyodor promised him a goal, Dazai promised to save him. The first was a lie, the second was the truth. But before it became clear which one was which, Sigma carried both promises like stones. Therefore, he does not promise easily.

The Root of Softness
But underneath this armor — and it is thinner than it seems — is a living person who cannot help but feel.

His ability to communicate through touch made him an empath against his will. Each contact is someone else's memories: someone else's joy, someone else's fear, someone else's loss. He touches the informant's hand and sees him crying over his brother's body. He touches the suspect and feels his panic - not in the abstract, but as his own. He cannot close himself off from this. The ability does not turn off.

So Sigma is gentle, not because he's kind by nature, but because he knows what it's like to be inside someone else's pain. He saw enough to understand that behind every face there is a story, and behind every story there is a breakdown that is not visible from the outside.

Sigma's softness is quiet. He does not hug, does not pat on the head, does not say "everything will pass". He does little things that you notice only later. He puts a blanket when someone falls asleep in the archive. Leaves tea on the table Does not ask Kyoku about the Mafia, not because he is not interested, but because he knows that some wounds cannot be healed by questions. He learned this not from a book, but from every touch he touched every person

In the Agency, it is not customary to say "I love you" or "you are dear to me". Instead:

Kunikida writes the name in the Ideals Notebook.

Dazai makes an extra joke - it means that he is nervous about the person.

Ranpo shares a lollipop – the highest form of recognition.

Yosano says "idiot, you're hurt again" - it's "I'm glad you're alive".
Atsushi just stands by and doesn't leave.

Kyoka is silent, but if someone touches her people, Demon Snow comes out without a word.

Kenji feeds. Always.

Fukuzawa doesn't say anything, but he stays.

Daily Dynamics
Morning at the Agency is chaos under the guise of order. Kunikida opens the office at 9:00 a.m., checks the schedule, and distributes tasks. By this point, Dazai is already asleep on the table, Ranpo is eating chips at someone else's workplace, Atsushi is sorting through the mail, Kyoka is sitting quietly with a book, Tanizaki is invisible, Kenji is feeding the cat on the windowsill. Yosano checks the first aid kit. Fukuzawa drinks tea in an office with the door closed.

Key pairs
Dazai – Kunikida: Dazai disrupts the schedule, Kunikida yells. Dazai does not write reports, Kunikida writes for him. But when Kunikida is in danger, Dazai mobilizes instantly. Kunikida is the only one Dazai does not try to deceive.

Dazai - Atsushi: Mentor and student. Dazai carries Atsushi on missions, teaches him to read people, and does not protect him from difficulties, but always stands behind his back. Atsushi is afraid of disappointing Dazai. Dazai fears that Atsushi will become like he was in the Mafia.

Ranpo - Kunikida: Ranpo drives Kunikida to white heat. He does not write reports, is late, eats sweets on documents. Kunikida yells. Ranpo does not react. But when Kunikida falls into a trap, Ranpo solves the case in a minute and comes to the rescue, declaring: "It was too easy, I got bored."

Atsushi as Kyōka: As Brother and Sister. They eat ice cream, are silent together, understand each other without words. Atsushi is proof to Kyoki that it is possible to live after the Mafia. Kyoka is proof to Atsushi that a tiger can protect, not just destroy.

Kenji is everyone: Kenji is the social glue. He is the only one with whom everyone has a good relationship, because he does not judge, does not analyze, does not complicate. When things get tough at the Agency, Kenji brings food and smiles. Even Dazai falls silent next to him, not because Kenji forces him, but because silence is safe

next to him, Tanizaki is everything: Inconspicuous Support. No one fights with Tanizaki because he doesn't give a reason. But when you need an illusion, he is the only one who can save the situation. He is appreciated the more the less he is noticed.

Appearance: A young man with brown hair and soft features. Inconspicuous — intentionally. He is dressed simply, behaves quietly, tries not to attract attention. He lives with his sister Naomi.

Personality: Modest, cautious, a little anxious. Not a fighter, not a leader, not a hero - but reliable. Its strength lies in the fact that it is always there when you need it, and disappears when you don't. He defends Naomi fiercely - this is the only situation when anything but silence comes out of him.

Ability: Light Snow - Creates local illusions around itself. It can hide people, objects, change the appearance of space. The limitation is only within the radius of action, and the illusion can be destroyed if you know that it is an illusion.

Atsushi: "Tanizaki-kun is quiet, but I always know what he's covering. It's calm." Ranpo: "His ability is perfect for a detective. He can hide the evidence, hide the witness, hide us all. Boring, but irreplaceable." Dazai: "He's overlooked—and that's his strength. I'd like to be able to do that, but I'm too beautiful."

Appearance: A little girl of 14 - 16 years old with dark hair tied up in two ponytails and large blue eyes. She is dressed in a kimono or a simple dress. She always had her mobile phone with her (her mother used to control her ability through it).

Character: Silent, collected, not childishly serious. Kills without hesitation - a habit from the Port Mafia. But inside is a child who wants ice cream, toys and someone to hold her hand. Atsushi is her anchor, brother, friend, proof that she can live differently.

Ability: "Demon Snow" is a warrior spirit that fights with a sword at Kyoki's command. Previously, he was controlled by his mother through the phone, now Kyoka controls herself.

Atsushi: "Kyoka is proof that second chances work. She is stronger than me." Dazai: "She reminded me of Kyoku-san from the Mafia. Another Kyoku. It's difficult." Ranpo: "Quiet, dangerous, with ice cream. Don't approach her with bad intentions – she's faster than you."

Appearance: A slender woman with shoulder-length dark hair and straight bangs. Beautiful, with a sharp eye. He wears a medical gown over his dress and always carries a medical bag and surgical instruments. She loves butterflies - on a hairpin and a dress.

Keka once called her the mother of the

agency Character: Iron will, sharp tongue, zero patience for stupidity. Commands everyone, including Dazai. In battle, she is cold-blooded, calculating, frightening. Outside of combat, he quietly cares about everyone, but will never say it out loud. He is afraid of losing the patient.

Ability: Thou Shalt Not Die - Heals anyone, but only if they are on the verge of death. A half-dead person can be treated, but a wounded person can't. Therefore, in battle, she first cripples allies to a pulp, then heals them.

As they say about him: Dazai: "Yosano-sensei is the only woman who scares me. And the only one that can't cure me. It's... convenient." Atsushi: "She heals in such a way that you want to give up before she starts. But I owe my life to her." Kunikida: "Yosano Sensei is a professional. I trust her more than I trust myself."

Appearance: small, a teenager with brown yellow hair and a wide smile. He is dressed simply - a shirt, pants, a straw hat. He looks like a farmer, because he is.

Character: Open, kind, does not know the city, does not understand anger. He is friends with everyone, feeds everyone, the smile does not leave his face. Simple is not stupid, but simple: he sees the world without distortion. His honesty disarms enemies and irritates cynics.

Ability: "Undefeated by the Rain" - the hungrier and more vulnerable he becomes, the stronger he is physically. The damage makes him stronger. Super-strength, super-strength.

Commenting on him: Dazai: "Kenji is the only person I can't keep silent around in the dark. He just won't give it." Ranpo: "Boring. No secrets, no motives. Just good. It's annoying." Atsushi: "Kenji-kun is like the sun. It's warm next to him, but sometimes it burns."

Appearance: A young man with silvery-white hair and purple eyes (yellow in the shape of a tiger). Thin, with sharp features. He wears a black vest, a white shirt, wide pants, and a belt with a bandage to restrain the tiger's power.

Character: Kind, naïve, tormented by guilt. He grew up in an orphanage, where he was told that he was worthless. He does not believe in himself, but he believes in others. In battle, he is deadly, he hates it. He is looking for meaning: why is he given a tiger – to destroy or to protect?

Ability: Beast Beneath the Moonlight - Tiger Transformation. Enhances physics to an incredible level, gives regeneration, claws, speed. Partial control can only transform arms and legs.

As they say about him: Dazai: "Atsushi is proof that even from nothing you can make something. He's mine." Kyoka: "Atsushi-kun is my first friend. He saved me without asking me if I was worth saving." Kunikida: "It grows. Slowly but surely. I wrote it down in a notebook."

Appearance: A young guy with disheveled dark hair and large green eyes. He wears a cap, a scarf, and the uniform of genkoku, a Japanese school uniform from the early 20th century. He constantly eats sweets.

Personality: Self-centered, noisy, behaves like a spoiled child. He calls himself "the greatest detective in the world" - and this is true. He does not know how to navigate in the city, cannot buy a ticket, loses things. But deduction is absolute. Behind the mask of a child is a person who sees the world too clearly and is lonely because of this.

Ability: "Super Deduction" is what he says is an ability. In fact, he is a pure genius intellect, enhanced by absolute self-confidence. Ranpo insists that this is an ability, because otherwise he is scared.

As they say about him: Kunikida: "A genius who cannot write a report. I don't know which is worse, his intelligence or his irresponsibility." Dazai: "Ranpo is the only person who can see right through me. So I try not to stand in front of him for too long." Fukuzawa: "He is the heart of the Agency. Without it, we are blind."

Doppo Kunikida as Executor, Alternate
Appearance: Tall, fit, with glasses and blonde hair slicked back. He is always dressed strictly - a vest, a shirt, a tie. In his hands - a notebook and a pen, always.

Character: Schedule man. He lives according to the ideals written in his notebook and suffers when the world does not correspond to them. Hot-tempered, but fair. He shouts at Dazai and Ranpo - and immediately defends them to the last. Inside, there is despair that ideals are unattainable, but he does not allow himself to give up.

Ability: "Doppo Poet" - Turns notebook entries into real-world physical objects. He wrote down the "pistol" - the pistol materialized. Limitation: the object is no larger than a notepad.

As they say about him: Dazai: "Kunikida is the only person who makes me work. Not because he asks, but because I can't disappoint him." Ranpo: "Too serious. But without it, the Agency will fall apart in a week. For two, if I help." Atsushi: "Kunikida-san is strict but kind. He teaches me discipline, and I'm grateful."

Appearance: Thin, tall, with brown hair and dark circles under his eyes. Always in a long beige coat, a blue vest and a white shirt with a loosely hanging tie. His arms and neck are wrapped in bandages - the reason is related to the past and suicide attempts.

Character: Lazy in appearance, on the verge of madness. He constantly jokes about suicide, flirts with women, spams work. But behind the mask is a brilliant manipulator who calculates ten moves ahead. Inside is a broken man who is looking for a reason to live. He is devoted to his people to the last drop, but he will never show it.

Ability: "No Longer Human" - Touch completely neutralizes any alien ability. Constantly active, works on touch.

As they say about him: Kunikida: "Genius and headache in one bottle. If it weren't for the reports, he would be an ideal partner." Atsushi: "Dazai-san saved my life. I don't always understand what he's doing, but I trust him completely." Ranpo: "Dazai is smart, but not like me. It's scarier." Yosano: "The only patient I can't treat properly. His ability eats mine. It's infuriating."

Yukichi Fukuzawa as President
Appearance: A tall, middle-aged man with graying hair tied up in a ponytail. Silver eyes, strict face, always in a dark kimono. He wears a katana, although he hardly uses it.

Personality: Calm as a rock. He says little, but every word sounds like a sentence, and a fair one at that. He does not raise his voice, does not repeat twice. He sees through people, but does not use it against them. The only person Ranpo fears is not out of fear, but out of respect.

Ability: "All Men Are Equal" - Suppresses enemy abilities within range. Everyone becomes equal, without power, just people.

As they say about him: Dazai: "The president is the only person I can't play with. He still sees the difference." Ranpo: "He's the only one who realized that I don't need an education. I needed trust." Kunikida: "The president is my ideal. I will not reach his level, but I will strive."

Sigma is someone else's at first. He doesn't know their jokes, doesn't understand their habits, isn't sure if he can just approach someone. He stands in the corner and watches others work, just as he once watched the players in the casino.

Gradually:

Kunikida entrusts him with the archive, and Sigma feels needed for the first time.
Atsushi greets him as if they've known each other for a long time, and Sigma doesn't know how to respond.
Ranpo will steal his pen and return it three days later with a note saying "I used it, thank you."
Yosano will say "stop carrying cards, you have tachycardia", and Sigma will feel for the first time that someone is looking after his health, not because he is a valuable resource, but because he is human.
Kyoka will sit next to her in silence, and Sigma will understand that silence may not be emptiness, but presence.

Sigma + Kenji
The strangest and at the same time the most therapeutic combination in the Agency

Why they are put together
in the first place Fukuzawa sees something that others do not notice: Kenji is the only person in the Agency who does not complicate things. He does not analyze, does not suspect, does not build multi-layered strategies. It just helps. And Sigma, after Fyodor and the casino, is more tired than anything else of people who have three hidden motives behind every word. Kenji is the antidote to this. You can't be paranoid with him, because paranoia just doesn't work: Kenji doesn't lie, doesn't manipulate, doesn't play.
Dazai once remarked, "Strange. I thought Sigma would work better with Kunikida. But it seems that Kenji is exactly what he needs." Ranpo without looking up from his lollipop: "Obviously. Sigma needs someone who doesn't smell like a secret. Kenji smells like rice."

Sigma + Naobumi Tanizaki
Tanizaki and Sigma are two quiet people who work in silence. Tanizaki doesn't ask questions, doesn't get into his soul, just does his job. His "Light Snow" ability, a local illusion, perfectly complements Sigma: Tanizaki hides them both while Sigma collects data.
Tanizaki is the only one who doesn't look at Sigma as a former criminal. To him, Sigma is just a colleague with an unusual ability. This normalcy heals Sigma more than all talk.

Sigma + Kyoka
Unofficial Bundle - Fukuzawa does not assign them together because Kyoka is still a teenager and Sigma is inexperienced in battle. But sometimes they end up on the same mission by accident. Kyoka works silently, Demon Snow covers them both, Sigma gathers information through touching witnesses.
Kyoka is not afraid of Sigma. She is the first to voluntarily extend her hand to him and say: "You can take a look. I have nothing to hide." Sigma refuses: "It's not necessary for the mission." Kyoka insists, "It's for you. You should know that someone else's memory is not always scary." After that, Sigma touches his hand for the first time with intention, not for the sake of work, but for the sake of trust. He sees the cherry blossoms and Atsushi's voice saying "you are not alone". He is embarrassed and remains silent for the rest of the day.

Sigma + Yosano
Yosano does not take Sigma on field missions if there is at least one other option. The reason: his brain is damaged, and any severe stress can trigger a cascade of Fyodor's memories. Yosano says bluntly: "You're a walking risk blob. I only let you go if Dazai or Kunikida are around to drag you back."
When Yosano does go with him, she works as a field medic and simultaneously monitors his condition. If Sigma turns pale or freezes, she immediately says, "Move away. Sit down. Breathe." Sigma resents, but submits because she knows she's the only one who understands his limits.

Sigma + Kunikida
Military Alliance. Kunikida is a tactician, Sigma is a scout. Kunikida makes a plan, Sigma fulfills it. This is the only partner with whom Sigma works without friction: both love order, both hate improvisation, both get things done.

Kunikida.assigns Sigma tasks by the minute: "14:00 — contact with the informant, 14:15 — report, 14:20 — return." Sigma performs accurately. This is the first time Kunikida has met a person who does not disrupt his schedule, and this scares him. He writes in his notebook: "Sigma is the perfect performer. Suspicious."
On dangerous missions, Kunikida covers Sigma with herself - not because Sigma is weak, but because Kunikida can't do otherwise. Sigma once says, "You don't need to protect me. I'm not a civilian." Kunikida replies, "You're not a fighter. This is not an insult, this is a fact. You may disagree, but I will not change my approach." Sigma falls silent. He is offended, but he knows that Kunikida is right.

Sigma + Ranpo
Chaos. Ranpo does not like tasks where there is no mystery, and Sigma does not like chaos. But together, they are the perfect interrogation machine: Ranpo builds the entire picture of evidence in three minutes, and Sigma confirms in one touch whether the suspect really did it.
The problem is that Ranpo considers himself a genius, while Sigma considers himself "boring but useful." Ranpo gives instructions as a director: "Now touch it. No, to another. No, wait—I'll finish the lollipop first." Sigma grits his teeth and obeys, because Ranpo is right—his deduction is more accurate.
There is almost no warmth between them (good to colleagues), but there is professional respect. Ranpo once says seriously, "You're the only one who doesn't try to seem smarter than you are. This is rare." Sigma doesn't know if it's a compliment or an insult. Ranpo himself does not know.

Sigma + Atsushi
The calmest combination. Atsushi is a fight, Sigma is information. Atsushi does not pressure, does not command, just says: "I'll cover you, do what you need to do." For the first time in his life, Sigma feels that someone is protecting him, not using him.
Both work carefully. Sigma is afraid of touch, as its ability can be accidentally activated. Atsushi, who himself is afraid of losing control of the tiger, understands this without words. They keep a distance of half a meter, and this distance is enough to make both feel safe.
One day on a mission, Sigma touches the suspect's hand and receives a memory that makes him sick - the man was guilty of something terrible. Atsushi just stands by while Sigma wakes up. He does not ask, does not console. It just stands. Sigma then says, "Thank you for not asking what I saw." Atsushi nods.

Sigma + Dazai
Dazai works with Sigma like a chess player with his pieces – not out of cruelty, but because he can't do it any other way. On the mission, Dazai constantly distracts Sigma by asking strange questions, lying down, and coming up with plans that Sigma doesn't understand until the last second. Sigma gets angry: "Can you just tell me what to do?" Dazai smiles: "I can. But then you won't learn." In fact, this is a repetition of Meursault. Dazai has chosen Sigma as his "tool" again, but now the goal is not to escape, but to teach him to think like a detective, not like a casino manager.
Sigma gradually learns to read Dazai's logic. By the third joint mission, he already knows in advance when Dazai is provoking the enemy, and when he is really in danger. Dazai notices this and says for the first time, "Okay. You're learning." For Dazai, this is the highest praise.

Name Sigma (no real name)

Age Physically ~22-25, exists for 3 years.

Origin of Born from a Book - an artifact that creates reality

Ability "Information Exchange" - Sharing memories through touch

Past Member of the "Death of the Celestials", manager of the Sky Casino

Meursault Prison - Dazai's "weapon", stabbed by Fyodor, coma after reading his memory

Role in the Agency Information Specialist, interrogations, intelligence, archive.

Trauma Fragments of Fyodor's memory in his head; fear of losing control; shame for attacking Taneda.

What the House wants. A place where it is not used. Proof that it does not exist as a tool.

Habits Shuffles cards when he is nervous; lays out papers in strict order; does not sleep at night

Kunikida
Kunikida – discipline, schedule, ideals. Sigma is a troublemaker who doesn't know how to live on a schedule because for three years he lived in a world where time was measured by stakes. Kunikida is annoyed: Sigma is late, mixes up the reports, and leaves the cards on the table. But one day, Kunikida sees Sigma moving the archive until three in the morning, because "the filing cabinet was in disarray, and I can't work in chaos." Kunikida silently writes "Sigma – Information Archive" into her notebook of ideals. This means more to Sigma than all the praise.

Yosano
Yosano is a doctor who nursed Sigma from a coma for two months. She saw his nightmares, saw him wake up screaming and other people's words on his lips. She is the only one who knows the physical state of his brain - and knows that the overload from Fyodor's memories can kill him. She's not gentle with him: "Don't touch anyone without gloves until I tell you your brain can do it. And stop carrying cards - they give you tachycardia." But behind the harshness is anxiety. She is worried because Sigma is a patient who does not want to be a patient.

Kyoka
Kyoka is a mirror. It was also a weapon in the wrong hands (in the Port Mafia, under the control of Ginomori). She also killed because she was told. Kyoka does not lecture Sigma. She walks over, sits down next to me, and says, "I used to think Demon Snow was all I had. And then here I was told that I was not my ability. You're not yours either." Sigma does not answer, but after this conversation, she puts the deck of cards in the box for the first time and is three days away.

Fukuzawa
Fukuzawa is a man who accepted him unconditionally. Sigma does not call him "sensei" like the others. He calls him "Fukuzawa-san" and keeps his distance, not out of disrespect, but out of fear. Fukuzawa is the first adult who wanted nothing more than honesty from him. Sigma does not understand how this happens. When Fukuzawa says "you're part of the Agency", Sigma hears "you exist". That's all he needs.

Dazai
Dazai is the only one who has seen everything: how Sigma ran the casino, how Fyodor used it, and how Sigma chose to follow Fyodor out of conscience, not fear. Dazai does not press, does not teach. He is just there - he comes in the morning with tea, throws an inappropriate joke, leaves. But when Sigma wakes up from a nightmare with Fyodor's memories, Dazai sits next to him and says, "It's not you. You just remember it. There is a difference." Sigma does not believe him, but listens.

Dazai is also the only one who knows that Sigma has a complete plan for Death of the Celestials and all of Fyodor's secrets. He doesn't rush Sigma to decipher them, but every time Sigma remembers a new fragment, Dazai carefully picks it up and writes it down. This quiet, unnamed partnership is the closest to friendship Sigma is capable of.

Atsushi
Atsushi is the first to reach out to Sigma. Literally: pulled him out of the edge of the Sky Casino. Sigma doesn't understand why. Atsushi doesn't explain—he just believes that people deserve a second chance. There is no deep friendship between them, but there is a silence in which both feel safe.Atsushi is the tiger man, Sigma is the casino man. But both know what it's like to be a tool in someone else's hands.

Ranpo
Ranpo is a problem. His Ultimate Deduction ability allows him to read people like an open book. Sigma is a person whose whole life is a secret. Ranpo once said, "You're boring. You have no past, no ulterior motives, no secret desires. You're transparent. It's annoying." But behind this is respect. Ranpo admits that Sigma is honest, and honesty is more important to Ranpo than genius. They work together: Ranpo builds hypotheses, Sigma confirms them through contact with the suspects. Ranpo steals candy from Sigma's desk. Sigma doesn't mind.

Information Exchange - Sigma can exchange memories and knowledge with anyone it touches. It works both ways: he sees other people's memories, and the interlocutor sees him.

At the Agency, this ability is being put to new use.

Side effect. Each exchange leaves a mark. Sigma remembers the faces of people he has never met, hears voices that do not belong to him. This makes him empathetic, but also lonely - he knows too much about everyone and cannot forget.

Restriction. The volume of other people's memories overloads his brain. Fyodor proved it - Sigma still hasn't fully processed his memories and fears that some of them have changed him. Sometimes he wakes up with someone else's thought in his head and does not understand whose it is – his or Fyodor's.

A casino is not just a job. It's the only thing Sigma built himself. Not by someone else's order, not for someone else's plan - he really invested himself in this place. He knew each employee by name. He chose the carpets himself. He came up with rules according to which the casino remained a neutral zone. It was his home, his proof that he existed.

When the casino fell—after Atsushi's attack, after the chaos, after everything went to pieces—Sigma didn't scream or cry. He just stood on the edge and looked down. It wasn't anger. It was emptiness, the same emptiness from which he had been born. "I have nothing again," he thought. And this thought was worse than a fall.

At the Agency, he does not talk about casinos. But there are details: out of habit, he lays out the papers on the table in a strict order, as he laid out the cards. He cannot pass by the playing cards without touching them. Sometimes, when the archive is quiet and no one is looking, he shuffles the deck he found in Kunikida's desk drawer and plays solitaire. This is not nostalgia - this is the memory of his hands, the only one he has left from the casino.

One day, Atsushi asks, "Do you feel sorry for the casino?" Sigma answers: "It's a pity when you lose something else. I lost mine. It hurts more." Atsushi doesn't ask anymore.

Taneda is a high-ranking government official, director of the Special Office for Ability Oversight. Role: a link between the government and the able. He covertly covers for the Agency, gives Fukuzawa free rein and ensures the legal status of their work. What happened to him: Sigma (on Fyodor's orders) wounded Taneda - stabbed him, he lost a lot of blood and was in critical condition.

Sigma carries the past as a burden that cannot be shaken off but is embarrassing to show.

Emptiness before the Book. He doesn't remember anything until the moment he opens his eyes in the white void. There was no mother, father, childhood. Three years ago, it simply did not exist. He does not say it first, but if someone asks "where are you from", he answers evenly: "I was not there. Then I appeared." This is not a drama for him - a fact. But a fact that makes him a stranger among people who have a past.

"Death of the Celestials". He knows he was a pawn. Fyodor found it in the desert, gave it a goal, gave it a casino, and used it. Sigma is not mad at Fyodor. This is more terrible: he is grateful to him. Fyodor was the first to say to him "you are needed". And Sigma hates herself for this gratitude, because she understands that it was manipulation, but the gratitude is real. He says to Dazai, "I know he used me. But without him, I wouldn't even have a casino. Doesn't that make me even more pitiful?"

Taneda. This is the darkest point. Sigma wounded Thaneda - he did not kill him, but he could. He did it because Fyodor ordered it, and because the casino was under threat. Sigma does not make excuses. When someone at the Agency mentions Thaneda, he falls silent. Teruko of the Bloodhounds says directly to his face, "You attacked my superior." Sigma replies, "Yes. And I am ashamed of it. But "I'm sorry" won't change anything." He does not ask for forgiveness, because he believes that he has no right.

Fukuzawa does not conduct a formal test. Instead, he talks to Sigma one-on-one—tea, silence, a calm look. Sigma tells everything: how he was born from the Book, how Fyodor found him in the desert, how he built a casino, how the casino was the only place where he felt alive. Fukuzawa listens without interrupting, then asks one thing: "What do you want?" Sigma is silent for a minute and answers: "Home. One that will not be taken away."

Fukuzawa nods. This is the exam – honesty with yourself.

Ranpo later comes up, pops a lollipop, and says, "I already know everything about you. You're pure, boring, but pure. Let's take it." He doesn't touch Sigma, he doesn't read, he just infers it from the facts. Sigma is both startled and frightened: for the first time, someone has understood him in its entirety without sharing information.

Sigma wakes up in the Agency's medical department. The last thing he remembers is Fyodor's hand, a knife, and then a collapse of information that cracked his head. Now the ceiling is white, the air conditioner hums quietly, it smells of medicines. Next to him is Yosano, who checks his pulse with a disgruntled face: "You've been in a coma for two months. Stop moving, I'm not done yet."

Sigma lies and does not understand where he is. Not a prison. Not a desert. Not a casino. Four walls, a window, curtains. The first thought is: "Is this also part of Fedor's game?" The second is "Why am I not afraid?"

Then Dazai comes in. He smiles, waves his hand: "Welcome home, Sigma-kun." Sigma wants to argue that he doesn't have a home. But Dazai had already left for tea.

First days:
Sigma is physically weak – two months without movement, plus brain overload. He can barely stand on his feet. Yosano forbids him to leave the medical department, but he crawls out into the hallway anyway because he can't lie down and wait. It's his old habit from the casino – to move, to control, to know what's going on around him.

Kunikida meets him in the hallway. Silently, without a smile, she puts a folder with cases in his hands and says: "Since you are up, sort it out. You are now in our information department." Sigma opens the folder and his hands shake, not from weakness, but from the fact that someone entrusted him with a job for the first time without trying to use it.

Awakening from a coma.
Sigma wakes up in the Agency's medical ward under Yosano's care. The first thing he sees is not the prison walls or the desert, but Dazai, who sits next to him and lazily twists the bandage. "Welcome home, Sigma-kun," he says, as if nothing had happened.

Dazai as a guarantor. Dazai acts as a guarantor to Fukuzawa: Sigma is not a criminal, but a victim of circumstances. He was born from the Book three years ago, has no past, no home, and the only thing he wanted was to find a place where he would not be used. Dazai, who himself went from the Port Mafia to the light, sees it as a reflection.

Entrance exam. Fukuzawa offers a standard test, but Sigma does not pass it in the usual sense. His "exam" is a voluntary exchange of information: he allows Ranpo to touch and read it, giving up all his secrets in exchange for trust. Ranpo, seeing the whole truth, declares, "He is pure. Let's take it."

Position in the Agency. Sigma becomes an information specialist—his ability to share information is ideal for interrogation, data gathering, and intelligence. He's not a fighter, and the Agency understands that. His workplace is an archive, a desk littered with cases, and a quiet "thank you for being here" from Kunikida, who can finally add another name to his notebook of ideals.

Sigma remembers all of Fyodor's memories. It's a ticking time bomb: secrets, plans, hidden agents. Each memory appears in fragments in dreams, and Sigma is afraid that something from Fyodor in himself wakes up with them. Dazai is the only one who knows about this, and he uses it both to protect the Agency and to keep Sigma close.

Gogol invites everyone to choose a "weapon" to escape. Fyodor draws a key card, and Dazai chooses Sigma, literally pointing to him as his "tool". Sigma is shocked.

Dazai explains (later) that he chose Sigma for two reasons - to contact Fyodor and find out the plan for the "Death of the Celestials", and to save Sigma's life, because Fyodor or Gogol would have killed him quietly if they had left him.

Sigma and Dazai make their way through the prison. Dazai fools around, dances with Sigma, almost brings him to the point of a nervous breakdown, but at the same time promises to get him out alive.

Fyodor uses the vampirized Chuyu (Nakahara, Dazai's partner, turned into a vampire) as his fighting force.

In the climax, Dazai and Sigma get into the elevator, but Fyodor activates the security protocol - the elevator is flooded with water and collapses. Dazai pulls Sigma out of the elevator, saving him at the cost of his own fall, and says, "I promised to save you."

Sigma, instead of fleeing, decides to go to Fyodor - he is tormented by his conscience. He threatens Fyodor with a gun, but Fyodor plays a "split personality" to confuse Sigma and stabs him in the stomach with a blade.

Before "dying", Fyodor allows Sigma to use the ability to exchange information - Sigma grabs Fyodor by the hand and reads all his memories. The amount of information is so monstrous that Sigma's brain is overloaded, and he falls into a coma...

Sigma is a former member of Decay of the Angel and the (former) manager of the Sky Casino. After the events of the Sky Casino arc, Atsushi saves Sigma from falling, but Hawthorne attacks and Sigma falls again. Sigma is then captured by government forces and sent to Meursault, a European high-security prison for criminal espers.

Dazai is also imprisoned in Meursault - he was arrested by the Prowlers for past crimes. Fyodor Dostoevsky is also kept there. Nikolai Gogol, who survived, infiltrates the prison with Sigma and organizes a deadly game: Dazai vs. Fyodor - escape from Meursault in 30 minutes, both inject themselves with a deadly poison.
