Summary
For Yuji Itadori, saving Megumi has always come easy. As a matter of fact, he would even describe it to be as easy as breathing.
And even in the face of death itself, he will always fight to keep him alive.

Summary
Yuta tried, before it all came crashing down. He tried to help. Tried to understand. He tried to get Gojo to see just how cared for he really was, but more than that, he tried to tell him that he was seen. That he was heard. That even if it seemed as though hardly anyone cared for Satoru, Yuta did.
Don’t try to be the monster all alone anymore.
Yuta hadn’t understood why Gojo was so against it. Not until now. Not until he was able to see for himself all of the things that made up who his teacher was on the inside, regardless of everything he tried to be on the outside.

Summary
Satoru Gojo had never known love.
He never found it in the warm arms of his mother, nor the gentle corrections of his father as he grew from a young child into a boundless teen. He never found it in friendships, for no human being would ever be able to handle the unfathomable enigma that Satoru was. Not that they could even get close. He never found it in his clan, never found it in the ever-changing world around him nor the people in it.
But he did find it in someone, once.

Summary
Suguru huffed angrily, spinning back around to face the water, a wave splashing over his feet. He gazed at the raging ocean for a long time, trying every way in the world he now existed inside of to come up with literally any reason to solidify that the choices he made on Earth were the right ones.
Because if he was wrong, then what did he have now?

Crash and Burn (I'll Burn Along With You) by IntrovertedWorm

10 May 2024

Summary
It’s a painful realization, he thinks, to finally understand that Megumi had become so much more important to him than he ever could have imagined. He’d picked up the kid when he was young, taking him under his wing and training him up to be a sorcerer under the watchful eye of the bastards he’d made the agreement with. He never intended for it to become anything beyond a teacher-student relationship.
But it did, and fast.
And even with the Six Eyes, Gojo still could not see that Megumi Fushiguro had effectively become his son.

Set Me Down Easy (I Just Need Time to Breathe) by IntrovertedWorm

Tags
Summary
Yuji wanted to be okay for everyone around him, to fight as hard as they were and motivate them to keep moving forward even if pieces of him were chipping away and fluttering to the ground with every agonizing step towards the future.
He understood now, as he stopped to pick up a broken fragment and place it back where it belonged, why Gojo smiled even when it didn’t matter.

Don't Let Go (Because I'm Not Ready to Leave) by IntrovertedWorm

02 May 2024
Tags
Summary
Saying goodbye to someone you care about is one of the hardest parts of being a sorcerer. But saying goodbye to that person a second time, especially after seeing them again, is even harder.
And when Satoru announced to his best friend in the whole world that he wouldn’t be going along with him to the other side— that he still had something he had to take care of back on Earth— it was the hardest decision he ever made.

Ascending To Infinity by IntrovertedWorm
Fandoms: 呪術廻戦 | Jujutsu Kaisen (Manga), 呪術廻戦 | Jujutsu Kaisen (Anime)
02 May 2024
Tags
Summary
Infinity allowed pieces of Satoru to shine from time to time, and Utahime had picked up on them. It had supposed that her aptitude for observation was a reflection of her soul, much like Limitless was a reflection of Satoru’s. If Utahime was observant, and put so much time and effort into the benefit of others, that must have meant that she was not as harsh as Gojo often provoked her to be. It also meant that when there was an opportunity to truly see someone, she would take it without question.
And each time Infinity revealed something, she saw it before anyone else.

The Mystery of Me and You by IntrovertedWorm

Summary
Every piece of knowledge she had acquired of him over the course of a decade had finally fit into place, and on some impossible transcendence of the very barriers that Gojo had put up around himself (metaphorically and literally), Utahime finally breached into his core. It was incomprehensible, overwhelming even. But as the pieces fit together, she was finally able to make sense of it all.
And what she saw was not anything divine, or even holy. It was nothing short of haunting— to know that this was what was hiding inside of him all along— alone, scared, and forced to be something else.

Hold On To Me (And Tell Me It'll Be Alright) by IntrovertedWorm

25 Apr 2024

Summary
The Night Parade. The Exchange Event. Shibuya. Everyone who had been part of that, at least those who were still left, were feeling the true effects of what it meant to be a sorcerer. And Gojo, despite being the very pinnacle of what jujutsu was meant to be, must have been feeling it too.
Maybe he had been for a long time. His exhaustion just hadn’t boiled over until now. Or perhaps it had a few times in the past, and this was just another one of those times. Either way, Utahime knew this struggle all too well.
And casting her hatred for him aside, she believed that Satoru Gojo did not deserve to face this alone. No one did. Not even the best of them.

Summary
To even lay eyes on jujutsu high’s campus after everything that had happened should have been considered a death-deserving act. Because Megumi had not been strong enough to fight Sukuna, to stop him, everything that happened in Shinjuku was his fault. Everything that happened from the moment Sukuna took over his body was his fault.
He had failed so badly that the most powerful sorcerer of the modern age, one of the most important people in his life, was killed. Of course, Gojo’s legacy could still be carried on through him, and he was well aware of that, but how could such ideals be carried on if there was hardly a world left to carry them into?

Summary
“Is… is that yours?”
Megumi stares at Gojo incredulously, his eyes darting from the bundle in his sensei’s arms to the man’s beaming expression. If he’s being honest, Gojo showing up with a literal baby clutched carefully in his grasp was not on his mental agenda for events to experience on this considerably fine spring day, but when does anything normal ever happen around here?

Which is Worse, to Grieve or to Regret? by IntrovertedWorm

Summary
Of course, it wasn’t like Yuta thought it wasn’t possible that Gojo could die. That’s why they made their contingency plan in the first place. But sending him out there alone? He and the others knew that was how it had to be, but in some second, regretful afterthought, Yuta now wonders if that was true.

I'm No Angel, But I'm No Devil Either by IntrovertedWorm

Summary
The jujutsu world is a cruel one, Megumi knows that. It’s relentless and unforgiving and many don’t make it out of here alive. But a world without jujutsu? The possibility of trading that hell for an even worse one was something Megumi, even if he understood the intent, couldn’t fully accept as a good idea.
Maybe it was Tsumiki lingering in the back of his mind, or maybe it was just the shadow of his own morality, but Megumi decides that these circumstances were fated from the very beginning. Curses exist. Sorcerers exist. The evil that lingers in this world exists. But on the other hand, good people also exist. Goodness, in itself, also exists. And Yuji, though a sorcerer, is a good person— a mix of the two worlds that he supposed Geto once believed were at an infinite crossroad.

Summary
“But,” he adds slowly, earning Suguru’s attention again. “I can say this. Your friend back there, he cares about you. Always will. Try not to forget that.”
Satoru knows it’s futile to say such a thing. He knows his words hold the utterance of some kind of twisted hope that he can somehow change something about this. Perhaps in his heart, he hopes it’ll change anyway.
Or
Gojo goes on a journey to understand who he really is as he seeks passage back into the real world.
