Summary
He's yakuza. You're a doctor. The nice girl falling for the bad boy is a tale as old as time, but you're less an angel in white, more a psycho with a grudge against the Japanese underworld.
Reader meets Nishiki during 1988/the Yakuza 0 period, and then revives him after the 2005 Millennium Tower explosion of Yakuza 1/Yakuza Kiwami.
..........
"Why did you save me?" He croaks. The right side of his face doesn't move--it's one massive scab after the millennium tower explosion.
Were Akira Nishikiyama anyone else, you'd give a generic response: this is your job, saving lives is a doctor's highest calling, blah, blah, blah. Nishiki knows you better than the bullshit and you know the cameras in the room. There's no audio recording, Nishiki's a Tojo patriarch, and you're the angel of Todai. Who'd believe him if he told? So you move into position, your face hidden from the cameras in case a lip-reader ever reviews the footage.
"I'm the best damn trauma surgeon in Tokyo," you tell Nishiki. "and the yakuza ain't fucking my track record."

Summary
Your lips just came together for a brief moment, before you slipped away, saying it was late and about time you hailed a cab and headed home.
Saejima hadn’t gotten the hint then. The words echoed bitterly in his memory now.
Yer as thick in the head as ya are in the gut, kyōdai.

Summary
"Stay awake, dammit!" Nishiki pushes the shirt against his wound harder, and Kiryu gasps. "What makes her weird, huh?"
"She… she makes me wear glasses." Kiryu's voice is too soft, too breathy, but he's trying. His head drops completely forward and Nishiki almost screams, but Kiryu keeps going. "…I don't get girls."
"What's not to get? So she likes her men with glasses, that's pretty tame." Nishiki pushes at his shoulder to jostle him, and he doesn't respond. "Kiryu? You have to keep talking. I can't—"
"Nishiki… am I dying?"
