what a lovely and bittersweet piece. it's true, akira knows two men who have been deeply affected by sai (three, including himself, four, if you count ogata). he would ask questions.
“So - does this meeting even have a purpose?” Your Go is majestic, but this game has been played so many times -
“Not everything is permitted that luxury.”
these lines were striking.
overall, the mood is one of acceptance... and resignation.
What a beautiful, dream-like take on Sai. ♥ The title is especially lovely, and I love the whole surrealness of it all, Sai's focus on the game and Touya's questions, this really is just love~

(One specific comment: I like that you used the Japanese where you did, though usually that bothers me.)
