out of curiosity: would you pay to cuddle or nap with a furry animal, if you had the option? if you didn't have to do any cleanup and you're assured they won't have rabies or anything like that.

i've met enough people who seem to want physical comfort of this type, so i thought i might ask.

[ this is a sincere enquiry, please respect his post! ]

Comments

I have. He was already here when I arrived. As were Gojo-san and Itadori-kun.

[ As well as a few others, but since they have left again there's no need to go into that. ]

I don't know what you've heard but he's not half-bad once you get to know him. Back in school he was half of the idiot duo beside Gojo.

[ perhaps not nanami-san's intention, but he's giving megumi a clearer timeline this way. it probably won't be much use, but it's comforting to know the little details.

not to mention, gojo-sensei certainly isn't going to provide him with information this easily. ]

geto-san has been surprisingly forthcoming. it's surprising.

i thought he'd be less... like that. are you two friends again?

oh megumi 🥲

[tokakujuho]

[ There is no need to be secretive or adopt one of those hypocritical 'but think of the children!' stances, not after learning from Itadori that the kids ended up doing well without the useless adults.

Are you two friends again?

Nanami ponders on how to respond to Fushiguro. It's the 'again' that has the ex-salaryman pause. Did they ever truly stop being friends or were those ten years simply an extended break? Nanami doesn't feel like they were ever not friends. ]

Geto-san was always a helpful person. He would have been a good teacher or at least mentor if he'd stayed.
Gojo-san can tell you more since they used to be close.

But we can catch up over tea if you have time.
Or a meal.
Have you been eating properly?

my typos reminding me why i don't tag on mobile

[ megumi only has agreement for what nanami-san's remarks about geto-san's character, reminding himself that despite appearances, the sorcerer is only a year younger than both gojo satoru and geto suguru. he knew the man before he was made inhuman by his actions in the eyes of their society.

but as for the second part of nanami-san's message— ]

i'd like to share some tea and a hot meal with you too, nanami-san. if it's not too much trouble?

is it too much to ask now what you've been told? about what happened after shibuya?

[tokakujuho]

It's never trouble, Fushiguro-kun.

[ Nobody has talked to Nanami in detail about what happened after his untimely demise. To be fair, he hasn't tried to dig too deeply either. After Gojo's surprise death reveal on his birthday, the ex-salaryman hasn't felt like wanting to know. ]

Not too much.
Only that you kids all made it out alive.
I'm very glad things worked out even though we all let you down.

[shadowban]

[ talking would've helped a lot of them in hindsight, megumi thinks with some bitterness. too many things left unsaid had led to a particular brand of misery; maybe if they'd all been a little more honest with each other it would've been better for everyone.

but the past cannot be changed, far as megumi's concerned. they can only move forward. ]

you did all that you could, nanami-san.
uhm, maybe we could talk in person sometime?
if it's not too much to ask.
i understand if you're busy, as well.
