That gets quite a big smile out of Togusa. "Fair point. Especially with Retrospec now." It was the biggest contrast: two moments, six months apart. Togusa and two of his friends went into the subways, a very dangerous situation, and the first time they were heavily relying on Togusa to protect them. And then when the same three went down again, it was vividly clear that suddenly Togusa was the one on the low end of the power scale. Not that he was complaining.

Togusa gives Soujirou a concerned look, but he nods. "I can get it." It's a precarious balancing situation, to nearly drape himself over the edge of the pier to reach the boat. He can snag the rope a little, and pull the boat the smallest bit closer. Then he gets a firm grip on the edge of the boat. "Okay. I got it." A worried look at Soujirou. He doesn't like it when someone else is the one to put themselves at risk. But he knows this is the right call.
