Emptiness was something Akagi was used to, but it had never been this bad before. It had cheered him up for a while when Erol had accepted his challenge, but slowly faded away with the realization he would have to wait almost a week for it. Then, when Angela had accepted, and immediately -- he thought for sure it would fill him, if only for an hour. But seconds after he had won he could feel the high fading, leaving him unsatisfied yet again. He had hardly cared enough to go through with the punishment, walking off looking empty as ever even as Angela's screams rang out through the casino.
He lit up another smoke. sticking the butt of his last one into his pocket with a pile of others. He had gone through about twelve packages of cigarettes in the last three days. And he didn't even usually smoke. But it made him feel better somehow, and he would take anything he could get at the moment.
