    Summary

    There was a ritual in it, Satoru thought - buttoning up the nicest shirt he owned, freshly ironed with the wrinkleless slacks he only ever took out for that day. He brushed his hair out in soothing, repeated motions. Once, twice, thrice; over and over as he breathed deep and slow. He was a metronome, following the tempo of his anxieties, preparing for the day to come. As he slid his round, blacked-out sunglasses on, he couldn’t shake the feeling something truly terrible was about to happen. He tried to ignore it, hoping he was wrong - that it was just paranoia.
    He’d never been wrong before.
    He knew he wasn’t wrong this time.

    It was like waking up and feeling as though the air had changed. Or how some describe they know a family member has passed before someone breaks the news. Suguru felt like his lifeline had been trimmed. Like something beyond decided that today would be his day. The final step. And his actions hadn’t helped. Since last year he’d stacked the odds against himself, putting ticket after ticket into the reaping for another bag of grain, another piece of meat. It kept them fed, but the cost was coming. He knew. He just did.

    Summary

    Gojo Satoru has a problem with obeying authority. He always has. Even when his clan elders ask him to attend omiai meetings, even when it’s an order.

    So when he encounters a Special Grade curse that manages to inflict its powers upon him, Satoru finds it excruciating that throughout the year that follows it — unbeknownst to anyone else — he is forced to obey the commands of the person closest to him.

    (Or: Satoru and Suguru’s relationship in their second and third years, after the events of Caesura.)

    Summary

    (Here’s something that a harbinger of tragedy would never find the courage to admit: there are moments in between the bitter self-hatred and the visceral, tangible consequences of your sins in which you almost think you’re worthy of forgiveness; of second chances; of a life beyond your greatest regrets. It’s a unique brand of pain, and it looks like this:)

    “Let me help you with this,” Satoru mumbles, so quietly that it’s almost reverent.

    Summary

    Satoru doesn't survive the fight with Fushiguro Toji. He dies, cold and alone, leaving behind only a curse with a taste for carnage. Suguru brings that curse to his lips, swallows down the remains of his best friend, his one and only. He doesn't know if it's Satoru's soul or just a mindless curse he's ingesting, but still, he can't part with it.
