Summary
""You were the last person I was expecting to see."
It's ridiculous, really. Just minutes ago, sorcery was as far removed from Nanami's life as it could be. The idea of cursed energy—of his life before moving away—was like something he dreamt up, a farfetched tale that only returns to him in his nightmares. But here, right in front of him is the veritable mascot of that world. Nanami scoffs, derision rounding out the sound. "Shouldn't I be the one saying that?""
Or: Six months into Nanami's salaried position at a downtown debt support service, he walks into a bar and sees Gojo Satoru.

Summary
It's no secret that Gojo gets attention for his looks from both sorcerers and non-sorcerers alike. At this point, it's a fact which is just as present as his technique. Gojo wrinkles his nose, pulling the blanket back. "I could sleep two hours a night and still look the same. Why? Do you not want people looking at me?"
Gojo says it in jest, just to tease Nanami. But the younger boy looks up at him through his lashes, more stoic than usual. "Is that what happens when I'm not around?"
Or: Gojo Satoru is awake and in love and all is good.

Summary
Gojo is stood on the other side of the wide road. He's uniform-clad and is looking in their direction. At once, Nanami is reminded of his recent nightmares, all of which always start out the same way. Gojo's sudden reappearance and his burgeoning vitriol. He's bitter over the leaving, always leaving, leaving, left, kicked to the curb like a dog with no teeth.
Only this has to be reality because this Gojo waves.
Or: Nanami was a fool to think he could prepare for this inevitability.
