Note: I'm completely and utterly unapologetic about this chapter.
It's important for the plot... I guess? To Character development, at least...
.....
Tokyo Jujutsu School reaches Kyoto with no problem, and in the same second that they left the train, Hakari goes in another direction.
"I'm gonna look around. You guys do the boring stuff." He says without looking back, waving his hand at the group that was left behind.
"Hey, I'm with your baggage." Megumi half-shouts at him.
"Yes! And thank you Megumi-chan~ Please take it to my room, okay~ Luve U!" Hakari shouts back and winks at him.
"Ugh." Megumi shudders at that. "I'm gonna throw it in the trash..."
Kirara follows behind Hakari after giving Megumi an apologetic smile and a bow.
"Well, let's do the boring stuff then. The Event will not be today, so we will have time to go around later." Gojo says before leading the way
The groups of a teacher, two students, and their future husband left the station, finding a driver from Kyoto Jujutsu High ready to take them directly to the school.
"What are the good places to visit Kyoto again?" Megumi watches the city pass by the window.
"Are you kidding? There's a lot!" Mai asks in disbelief, unaware that thanks to the 'fusion' of souls, this Megumi is 'less Japanese' than her, and this knowledge is kinda put on a second plan "I want to see the 10.000 gates on the Inari Temple and the Bamboo forest."
"There's a samurai and ninja experience museum here, right?" Maki asks, half interested
"Why do you want to go there? You're basically a samurai and a ninja..." Megumi deadpans
"It's the one that looks interesting." She shrugs "And I want to see if they are full of bullshit or not."
"You just want to find something to complain about." Mai rolls her eyes "Just try to be nice and enjoy nice things.
" 'Being nice is free...'" Megumi quotes " "...but being a hater too'. Do what tickles your brain." He and Maki laugh, making Mai scoff.
"You guys can't lose the opportunity to experiment with the food." Gojo interjects "Places you can see by pictures."
"True. If we go back without at least a tummy ache, I will consider this trip a waste."
...
They finally arrive at Kyoto High School
"Not that different... It's only looks older." Maki comments while looking at the buildings, different from Tokyo where is possible to see some hints of modernity, here all of them look like some sort of temple or dojo.
"I think traditional is the most appropriate word." Mai corrects
"It looks like a yakuza home. Like the Zen'in clan." Megumi adds
"Ah, that's why this place stinks like old people." The older Twin realizes.
You guys are not that wrong. Kyoto High was founded before its sister school in Tokyo, and the ones that went to take care of the development in Tokyo are the young and non-important people, while the traditional people stayed here." Gojo gives some explanation "Only later, when Tokyo became the capital, did the Higher-ups change their meeting place to Tokyo."
After a walk on a rock path, they finally meet who Kyoto sent to greet them. A duo of women waits for them.
When the two groups see each other, two proportionally opposite reactions appear on the faces of their Leaders.
"Utahime~" Gojo squeals with a big smile on her face, opening her arms while approaching the black-haired woman with a scar on her face and wearing Miko clothes.
"Gojo Satooru..." Utahime wrinkles her brow and nose while her mouth purses in distaste. "Where is Principal Yaga? Or Kusakabe-san?" She narrows her eyes seeing Gojo approaching her, obviously aiming for a hug
"They couldn't come, so I volunteered myself. Aren't you happy?" Gojo unceremoniously pulls the other woman into a hug, rubbing her breasts in her face.
"Happy like that time I had an eye infection..." She deadpans
"Oh, don't frown so much. The wrinkles will become permanent, you know? That's why you look like you're nearing your forties~" The blindfolded woman says with an innocent big smile.
"..."
"They look like they get along well..." Megumi says, seemingly oblivious to their relationship
"..."
"Yes, we do!" Gojo says fast "Even though Utahime was, technically, my senpai I always had to save her flat ass. That's how this equal-standing friendship blossomed!"
"It's not flat..." Utahime finally gets off Gojo and smoothes her clothes "And I don't doubt that this you how you remember things. Your ego must have changed your memories." She huffs.
"Your 'straight man' routine is still on point, Utahime." Gojo laughs, completely ignoring the animosity leaking from the slightly older woman.
"Hello to you too, Tooru-chan." The second woman, Mei Mei, makes herself noted with a playful smile
"Oh... You're here..." For some reason, Gojo is much less enthusiastic about seeing Mei.
"It's a good gig. My technique is very useful to watch the students during the event." Mei Mei doesn't appear to notice Gojo's difference in treatment, then she turns her attention to the students "Oh~ Are these the students? No... You must be Fushiguro-kun, right?"
"Hm? Am I famous?" He tilts his head
"More or less. You are always one of the interesting topics that me and Gojo talk about." The older woman says while approaching him "But I have to say, I expected you to be a boy... but look at you... A man already~" She says with a strange tone, her hand going for his bíceps
"..." The twins look at that interaction strangely. It appears that she is flirting, but at the same time maybe they're overreacting.
The mood is awkward, the people present don't even know what to say.
Well, everyone except Megumi. "Gojo... I think she wants to do something bad to me... I need an adult." You can leave it to him to be shameless enough to address the issue to its face.
Mei Mei chuckles "Fufu~ You're fun. It's just that it's always useful to know people in this line of job, you know? It's an adult thing~ I can teach you some other time~" She says the last part with a sultry tone
"...yeah... I think I'm gonna let you do that bad thing to me."
"Okay, Mei Mei. You're creeping the kids out." Gojo finally intervenes, putting herself between Megumi and the predator.
Seeing Gojo acting like that, only made Mei Mei's smile grow bigger, maybe that is her objective. Mess with the strongest sorcerer and old friend. It's not every day that you have the opportunity after all.
"If you guys can stop being weird, follow me." Utahime sighs before walking away, not giving them the chance them start some other strange situation.
They follow her some seconds later.
"So... Do you like older women?" Mai asks Megumi, from the back of the group.
Maki is also staring at him intensely.
"..." He has a big mouth, but he knows when the right answer is to say nothing.
But they didn't even walk 10 meters before someone suddenly dropped from the sky.
"I was waiting for you, Tokyo!!" Todo shouts while removing his shirt and dropping it on the ground.
"Todo! Don't go jumping from the roofs! And don't take off your shirt for everything!!" A blonde girl riding a broom gets closer while shouting.
Utahime groans, she just gets out of an annoying situation and another just jumped in front of them.
With the exception of Megumi, that is smiling, everyone from Tokyo is looking at the newcomer with different degrees of "what the fuck?" expression.
"Hmm." Todo looks around the people from his sister's school "So, only one man? It's enough... I'm feeling something from you... A resonance!!" He shouts while opening his arms.
"He is not a student yet. He is only accompanying his... cousins." Gojo Interferes "Hakari-kun went around..."
"Oh." Todo looks surprised by that, once again he gives Megumi a look "Whatever, that is not important. What is your name?"
"Me? Fushiguro Megumi...14 years, I will enter Jujutsu High School next year."
"I'm Todo Aoi, second-year... Now let me ask something, Fushiguro Megumi..." Todo strikes a stance "What kind of woman is your type?"
"..."
"..."
Utahime and Broom Girl facepalm at a certain time.
The people from Tokyo morph the "What the fuck?" look into "Are you an idiot.?" Look. Only Gojo and Megumi appear to find amusement in the situation.
"My type of woman? It's a very complex answer... Not something I can discuss with anybody." Megumi smiles mysteriously
"C'mon, don't disappoint me now!" Todo urges him.
"My type... My type... Hmmm..." Megumi looks around, considering the Original Megumi type, that still lingers on him, his original type of woman, the fusion of the two, the answer that can please Todo.
He looks around... He is surrounded by women. Targets. Maybe he should be careful... Maybe he should tease them...
The conflict inside of him is big.
"Well, if you don't want the complex answer..." He says slowly before a big shit-eating grin spreads on his face "Personality..."
He can see some of the women nodding at him from the corner of his eye, and the inevitable reaction from Todo happens almost instantly.
Todo pinches the bridge of his nose, tears running around his face...
"Is this my destiny? Does no one understand it?" He finally looks at Megumi again "You broke my heart, Fushiguro."
And suddenly he is dashing forward, reaching the younger teen in an instant.
Megumi meets his advance with a chuckle.
With his hand in his pockets, he raises his leg and stops the incoming lariat that he would have received.
"Oh... You're good." Todo praises "But this is what makes your answer even more disappointing!" He lowers himself, his arms outstretched in a position that shows that he is going for some sort of wrestling move.
Megumi jumps over Todo, dodging the arms that try to grab his waist. The Kyoto student spins around faster and delivers a punch.
Megumi meets the Punch with one of his own, and the two fists crash creating a small air dislocation.
"Why are you like that, Fushiguro?!"
"I said that is a complex answer..."
The two give a step back, before... *Bam* They punch each others face.
"What is your type, by the way?"
"I like tall women with a bug butt!"
They talk while then *Bam* they punched each other again.
"Why are they not dodging?"
"This is just like a drunk brawl..."
"I think that is because they are men..."
"So they are idiots?"
"Isn't that what I said?"
The women onlookers talk among themselves
While this is going on Megumi and Todo continue to attack each other without dodging like it's some sort of unspoken rule, that whoever dodges first loses.
"Ah~ So are we talking about physical appearance?" Megumi suddenly says in realization before preparing his next attack "I like that too!"
*Bam*
"But it was not your answer! Your first thought is always your most pure answer!"
*Bam*
"And I will not change it. Personality is the most important!"
*Bam*
"See? It appears that we can't see eye to eye Fushiguro!"
*Boom*
After a particularly stronger exchange, the two are sent sliding back some steps.
The two don't appear to be that hurt, reinforcing the fact that they're not going all out. Heck, Megumi looks as good as new. Attentive eyes would even notice that he didn't use Cursed Energy during the whole battle.
Todo, also looks fresh, with the exception of some light bruises.
Now, with room to talk longer, Megumi starts "Let me elaborate the more complex answer... You have your creed and I have mine. And I believe..." He takes a deep breath before declaring proudly "...no real man has a type!!"
"..."
"Yes, maybe some biotypes attract your eyes and activate your neurons, but a woman's physical appearance will never be the deciding factor of a man's choice!"
"..."
"Look over there, those two are my girlfriends." Megumi points at them "They're twins. They are destined to be the same, but their personalities are different. This changed them, it even changed their bodies!"
Everyone's attention turns to the twins, making the two a little uncomfortable.
"I love them both equally and the thing I love the most is that they're different personality-wise... For example-"
"Megumi shut up." Feeling where this is going Maki tries to stop him
"Hold up, let him cook..." But Gojo stops her
"The older one, Maki, has that cold and bitchy exterior but she is a genuine girl. Her harsh words come from a surprising caring intention. You can't deny that her bad upbringing molded her, but she doesn't let it change her into a bad person. She can be cold and distant to everyone, but if she is harsh with you it's because she cares... It's because you gained one of the few precious places in her heart. A place that I'm proud to occupy. She is also very protective of the ones she truly cares about. And has a cute side... She gets shy when her qualities are exposed and talked out loudly, like right now. See? She is blushing but glaring at me like she wants to rip off my jaw. It's hot and cute. And look, a part of her personality is that she is a hard worker and a serious girl... And that made her body different from her sister. She is muscular but still feminine. With a toned body, and curves in all the right places. Mai on the other hand is more outwardly the perfect Picture of a lady. Soft-spoken and demure, but inwardly you would be surprised to know that she has a mean side. She can say the most poisonous and offensive things to you with an innocent smile on her face, not that it's bad... It's just that different from Maki who would punch you, Mai would tear you apart with words without even cussing you. She has a black heart, but it's okay, I love that too. And even when her sharp tongue is aimed at me, it's easy to take it as a joke because of her sharp wit. A sharp wit that escapes her when I tease her back, and is another thing that I love to see... The effects that I have on her, knowing that I can make the mean Mai, who looks at people like they are trash, splutter, and go red-faced... Exactly like now! Don't hide your face, Mai! I love you! See what I'm talking about? They're twins. Literally the same, but their personality changed them. It gives them a special 'flavor'. Unique to them. And that's the thing I love the most about them, I love that they are different! People can have similar physical appearances, just go to California and you will meet a Blondie every two meters. And we can't even say shit because we're Asian! But personality gives us this uniqueness, and the UNIQUENESS is what makes a man enter a serious relationship with a woman, not their physical appearance!"
He said all that in one go.
"..." Everyone is shell-shocked
And Megumi is not done! "Humpf, it appears that you're not convinced... I could give you the example of Tsumiki, the one with the best personality and the reason that I still have faith in humanity, but because you don't know her let me change... targets." He looks around before his eyes suddenly stop on...
...Nishimiya Momo, the broom girl.
"Hiih!" She stepped back in fright, she had a bad feeling "Someone stop him..." She grabs her broom tightly, ready to fly away
But she was betrayed by her fellow woman.
"No... Just accept your fate..." Maki catches her broom and looks at her with dead eyes
"Aaah..." She moans before gulping loudly after feeling a shadow being cast over her. She looks back robotically, like in a horror movie, only to see Megumi looking down at her with a smile.
"Look at this example... You said that you liked tall women, but can you really deny the appeal of a petite one? Yes, she doesn't have a big butt or curves, but she has the curves perfect for her stature. It's her charm! It's Justice! And her personality can multiply her appeal... I don't know her, but maybe she is the tsundere type, that combines with her twin-tails. If she is the bossy type, the Gap moe would be so good, exactly because she is petite. The contrast of someone smaller than you and so cute, acting all bossy... I can imagine her puffing her cheeks in irritation and putting her hands on her hips. And she is older than she looks, right? Even better, see the Gap Moe? Na older sister type that looks like a little sister. Two-in-one!"
"Please... Take your boyfriend back..." Momo hides her face with her broom, but it's possible to see the effects that Megumi words have on her by looking at her red ears.
"I'm going for the combo... I'm not stopping now..." Megumi declares before he disappears from his spot and reappears close to Mei Mei
"Oh my~" She chuckles and waits for him
"Now this is a mature woman." He appraises with a satisfied nod "A beautiful one with great assets, but you know what makes her even better? The mommy vibes!"He says making Mei Mei giggle "Or if you want to go to another Route... She has that dangerous vibe, she is obviously evil in some way... The type that would swallow you whole and spit the bones out. Do you see? Two completely different vibes, from completely opposite personalities, that are equally attractive and I'm all for it!".
"I would say that you're being rude... but you are not wrong~" Mei laughs while resting her cheek on a hand
"See? Evil... But I like evil too. Evil girls are the type to spoil you while treating everyone else like crap. Who doesn't want an Evil Sugar Mommy?!" Megumi points at her
Then his focus changes again...
"Don't you dare..." Utahime starts
"I'm already on it..." Megumi stops her before he starts "Look at her, thanks to the conservative Miko's outfit, you can't accurately see her curves... But that's a sort of charm in itself!" He declares proudly
"Please not another Gojo... Please not another Gojo..." Utahime murmurs a prayer while keeping her eyes closed, trying to escape reality
"A hidden beauty is attractive thanks to the mystery and what guy doesn't want to have that feeling of conquest and monopoly over a woman's beautiful form? Now let's couple this conservative outfit with a serious personality... So fitting. Or maybe a warm and caring interior? *Mwah* Cheff kiss. Even the few things we can see tell an interesting story, that makes us want to unveil the mystery of these Miko's clothes even more. That badass scar, the raven hair tied back... And she is also a teacher, right? But what kind? Does the charm of a mature woman hide beneath this serious exterior, serious profession, and serious clothes?"
Megumi ends, leaving a Utahime twitching with multiple emotions... Embarrassment, anger, the desire to kick him...
But when Megumi turns around to continue talking with Todo, he is interrupted
"Hey! What about me?" Gojo asks pointing at herself
"..." Megumi turns to her confused "What? Oh yes... You're a woman..." He looks like he suddenly realized
*Bam*
In an instant, Megumi was hit with a Punch in the gut. If asked, he would swear that he saw black sparks flying.
"Okay... Okay... Let me think..." Megumi says after a groan, he looks at Gojo with a more critical look, hand on his chin
"..."
"....."
"....."
Time passes and he says nothing. He will never lose the chance to mess with Gojo.
"Hmm... Eeh... Hmmm... Hm... Like... There's... You know... Er... Something..." He struggles a lot
Utahime mood is uplifted seeing that, she laughs in her hand while giving Gojo a smug sideglance.
*Bam*
Another one, right on the solar plexus.
"Bitch... You're violent... And some guys like it..." It's what he can squeeze out of his mouth.
After a second, he shoots off the ground and continues like nothing happened "Anyway, I believe I made my point. I can understand your passion in liking tall women with big butts, but appearance it's not like that's what really matters. It's attraction and lust, not that this is unimportant, because it's the first step. But Personality is the sauce, the thing that gives flavor and makes us truly love women. Like pizza, the different toppings change everything."
"Is he really comparing women with pizza?" Momo asks in disbelief
"Yes, he is." Mai facepalms "And the worst part is that he really is complimenting us..."
Megumi ignores them, his focus is on Todo only.
"I will answer you again, Todo. Women in all forms and shapes are my type!" He once again stuffs his chest to declare his preference. This gives him some nods of approval from the feminine audience at least "Except fat bitches."
"..." He really said this. The man is not afraid of shouting his preference, in some way, he is similar to Todo.
"Hey! After all this, you will exclude big women?" Momo shouts at him in outrage
But Megumi will not them jump to conclusions and slander him.
"Shut up, who said that I don't like big women? I love big women!" He points at her in his best impression of the 'Objection' Pose "There's no problem in women being chubby. Gimme some belly rolls and I will grab them!"
"..."
"I'm talking about fat obese bitches! The ones that lost their womanly figure! Their hourglass shape! It's doesn't matter how small or big is the 'hourglass', but it has to be an hourglass! If your belly is bigger than your hips, you're doing something wrong! The waist-belly ratio needs to be respected!"
This really shuts up Momo "But... But... Big women deserve love too..." She argues weakly
He only scoffs "Hmpf! Not from me."
"And what if you're losing someone with a great personality because you don't like her big?"
He scoffs again "If she is so fat that she stands up with difficulty, can't even see her feet or run for 10 seconds... Her personality is not compatible with me anyway."
"And what if I suddenly gain a 100 kg Megumi? Huh?" Mai challenges
"I would never allow you to let yourself go like that, and even if it happens, I would make you hit the gym with me. Because I already love and want the best for you." He says seriously while looking at her deeply in the eyes
"~~~" She can't help but blush and avoid eye contact
"Don't you see, girls? The fact that we like your bodies is not about lust... It's because we appreciate the efforts that you guys put into getting pretty." He says sincerely
"..."
"Skincare routine, hair saloons, workout... Don't say that you guys don't like being skinny and beautiful because it would be a lie. So we can't appreciate it too? Should we simply brush off and ignore your guy's effort and pander to people who don't care even about themselves?"
"Damn..." Maki comments
"He is making too much sense..." Mai adds
"He knows too much..." Mei also gives a commentary
"We should kill him..." Momo suggests
Megumi sighs and shakes his head, like a misunderstood hero "It's okay... You guys don't need to say anything. I know that you all love to be pretty and fit in pretty clothes, and like to be noticed too. But I also know that it will sound bad if you admit it. It's okay, the fact that you all are bipolar is also good... The 'flavor' of your personality changes with your mood swings and keeps things interesting."
"..." He is arguing with six women... and winning.
Then everyone starts hearing a slow clapping sound, turning to Todo they see him crying in an ovation.
"I was not wrong about you, Fushiguro..." He sniffs, he then turns around to hide his tears "But we met too soon..." he looks at the sky
"..."
"I believe that a man needs to have a pin-point drive and ambition... A visualization of his desires that pushes him forward! You're spreading yourself too thin, Fushiguro!" He shouts before his voice goes softer "The next time we meet... I hope you will have found your path."
"Zeha~" Megumi laughs and also turns around "Maybe my path is difficult to the average man, but I know I can walk down on it." He says while looking at the Horizon
The sun illuminates the two men, their backs facing each other.
"Then I hope you can still say the same when I ask you again... 'What kind of woman is your type?'." Todo says before starting to walk away with a placid smile, his hands in his pockets.
Megumi also does the same, the two physically walking in different directions, but in the same line. A representation of their views... Maybe they will never meet eye to eye, but they are on the same length.
"You two idiots know that you will need to walk the same way to enter the school, right?"
"..."
....
Megumi P.O.V.
Pfft~ That was funny~
I chuckle to myself as I walk with the twins to do some sightseeing before going to sleep. The Goodwill event will be after tomorrow, ending on Saturday, giving us some time on Sunday to go around Kyoto. But I can enjoy the now, it's not like Maki needs more training.
I laugh internally again after remembering the earlier events. In hindsight, maybe I should not be so..." honest" in front of the girls and Capture Targets. The best way to capture your prey is to isolate them, there you can act differently and appropriately to the situation and match the target's needs...
But it was funny! Pfft. And not a lie. Being honest is good too. I will not hide that I'm a pervert and I think it will be very fun to get them even when they know I'm kinda scummy. Girls can't resist a bad boy~
That broom girl left giving me some looks. Most of annoyance and a little anger, but it's fine. Rage is not the opposite of love, apathy is. Feeling something about me is better than feeling nothing. Now I'm in their heads at least, I can work from here.
Not that I think I will have time to do more than leave an impression.
"Megumi, are you gonna get other girls?" I was shaken off my thoughts by Mai's sudden question
"..." Well, that's a problem... Maki also appears to be interested in my answer.
Should I keep quiet? Diverge the answer? Nah... Let's be a little honest.
"Those things should be kept to Fate. I met you two by chance, maybe I will meet someone by chance in the future..." I say diplomatically
"..." The stare the two are giving me makes me a little uncomfortable. Didn't the Company help with jealous feelings?
"I mean... It will be hard, after all, I already have you two and Tsumiki. So I will need the approval of you guys. I will not add someone that will bring problems to our relationship." Even though I'm confident that I can convince them eventually "But isn't having a big family a nice thing?" I gave them my best smile. Kachaw
"..."
"Just don't stick your dick in just anyone..." Maki finally sighs
Yes! "Please... Didn't you guys hear my passionate speech? A connection is needed for me to make a move. I'm a romantic guy."
"You're a perv, that's what you are." Mai shots back
"The two are not mutually exclusive..."
....
I walk together with Mai in a room to watch the massacre that is about to happen. Like, seriously... Maki alone can solo Kyoto. Even Todo can probably only delay the inevitable.
I will consider it a win if Maki figures out some weak points in herself and works on improving them.
"Sup." I say to the people present, Mai gives them a short bow.
Beyond the people that I saw Yesterday, three more people are present. The principal from Kyoto, and Mechamaru and Miwa.
"You're Fushiguro Megumi from the Zen'in clan, right?" The principal who has a name I don't remember addresses me.
"I'm Fushiguro Megumi from Fushiguro Megumi." I answer while sitting in what I guess is the "youngsters row" together with Mechamaru and Miwa. Particularly at Miwa's side, I will try to talk with her later.
In the many screens in front of us, I see the open space that is Kyoto High School. It appears that the group stage will be something similar to what I saw on Canon.
I see the two school groups waiting in their designated spots in some classrooms. Kyoto group is really composed of Todo, Momo, and the Kashimo guy.
"Did the rules get explained already?" I turn to talk with Miwa.
"Ah... The mission is to collect some flags all around the school, some are hidden, some are protected by cursed Spirits, and some are out in the open. And then they need to take the flags to the finish line." She answers after the small surprise of being suddenly called
"Ah..." I analyze the screens with a little more scrutiny "So those flags, huh? Kyoto will have the Advantage because of the broom girl... And some are inside those chests? But maybe not... Maybe they will lose time defeating cursed spirits? Carrying so many flags would make them an easy target, but finishing earlier gives you the disadvantage of not knowing how many flags the opponent will bring. Do they know the total of flags?" I analyze the game
"Eh... No."
"Then this puts even more pressure on their decision making." After my analysis I laugh and shrug my shoulders, grabbing my phone I start scrolling through it without worries "Too bad, Maki is on it. She can cheat by defeating everyone..."
"...planning is useless against Absolute power." I ignore the screens and the eyes around me and start watching some Indian guys building some primitive stuff.
Please, this is fake as fuck...
....
- ?? -
On a balcony with a good view of Tokyo, a teen girl is brushing the hair of an older woman. The woman seems to be contemplating something, probably something good because of the small smiles on her lips. Between her dainty fingers, she rolls a small piece of paper, a card.
"Your hair is so smooth, Geto-sama. It's so easy to brush." The girl comments
"Fufu~ Thanks. Your compliments Always brighten my mood." The woman, Geto, comments.
"You appear to already be in a good mood, Geto-sama." Another girl comments.
"is that so?" Geto looks surprised for an instant before laughing softly "It's just that the key to accomplish my objective has appeared." She rolls the card between her fingers again, it's possible to see that it's some sort of ID card.
From Okkotsu Yuta.
"Ehh~ So are we finally going to act?" The girl that is brushing the hair asks animatedly
"Fufu~, no. This key is simply enough to deal with Tooru. There's a lot to do before that."
"Tooru is Gojo Satooru, right?"
"Yes."
"And why do you have to deal with her? Is she an obstacle?"
"Yes. The most problematic one." Geto says softly
"I heard Suda-san say that she was in Kyoto. Wouldn't now be a good moment to strike?" One asks innocently
Geto laughs again "Underhanded tactics are useless against her..." Her eyes appear to be reminiscing about something "It doesn't matter what I do, if Tooru disagrees she can destroy everything I built. So I need to deal with her first. After all, she is the strongest."
"...even more than you?"
"Much more than me." Geto admits easily
"You know a lot about her, Geto-sama..."
"I do, after all, she is my best friend..."
"..."
"But we have different ideals... We walk on opposite paths, even though they are a little similar. I heard she got herself a cute protege too." Geto smiles warmly while pinching one of the girl's cheeks, making her smile
After some time, Geto sighs and looks at the Horizon.
"That's why only a direct confrontation will be acceptable. Our ideals will crash and we will discover who is right."
Geto looks at the ID in her hand "And the day of our final confrontation will be earlier than I thought, Tooru."
____________________X_____x_____X________________________
Author's Note: Yes, you guys just read almost 5K words of a guy talking about his type of woman.
If this is not peak Jujutsu Kaisen, I don't know what is.
Jokes aside, this chapter is like that because I promised myself that I would not let the chapters pass 6k words to not burn myself out. Don't worry, the Night Parade of Geto will start in the next chapter. It's not like this Goodwill Event will be suspenseful, right?
And then canon starts, and then things will speed up.
This arc is more to see characters interacting anyway. The time in canon is too tight. How can our boy woo the Kyoto gals in so little time?
Enjoy the nonsense while you all can.
Bye Bye~
