“Going to the Highschool division to check out their culture fest for ideas?”
Everyone in the room turned to Gojo. Everyone being the entirety of the student council plus the class representatives. Gojo shrugged in response, “Well yeah? It’s not like that’s illegal. Plus, my brother invited me. How could I say no to him?!”
Geto Suguru, Gojo’s boyfriend, replied, “He’s on the Highschool student council, right? If that’s the case then it’s probably ok to go.”
Gojo stood up,clapping his hands as he said, “Wonderful! Suguru, Sukuna, Yuuta, Nanamin, Utahime and I will visit the highschool culture festival!”
Yuuta, who wasn’t even on the student council, couldn’t protest like Utahime no matter what he did. He could only hope nothing goes badly for him.
-x-
As it turns out, the plan to talk to Gojo’s brother went awry on the first step. When they had arrived in front of the aforementioned brother’s classroom door, they were denied entry as Gojo’s brother was inside, scaring people as he should be doing in a haunted house.
“Well now what?” Utahime asked.
“We simply go inside then! Yuuta! Come with me!” Gojo took hold of Yuuta’s arm and dragged him inside, leaving Utahime, Sukuna, Geto and Nanami outside.
“...I’m not following them inside.” Nanami deadpanned. The other three silently nodded, praying for Yuuta.
Inside, there was a creepy feel to it. There were long winding corridors that formed a maze. Their objective was to get from the entrance on one side of the classroom to the exit on the other side all the while encountering the students playing the roles of the monsters and simple booby traps. It was supposed to be easy. They have yet to encounter any students and traps.
“Well this isn’t scary at all!” Gojo declared.
Suddenly, something sharp poked Yuuta in the small of his back. Slowly turning around, he saw a small white haired figure, glaring at him through their bangs. The figure hissed at him and raised their arm. In their hand was a very realistic looking knife. Yuuta screamed in response and Gojo tugged him away, running off.
The figure chased them everywhere, allowing them to slip by somehow when they rounded a dead end. It alternated from dragging their knife on the walls and attempting to grasp Yuuta in their arms. They would also attempt to trip Gojo and have him land face first on the floor. Most of the time, it worked.
Eventually, someone yelled out, “Everyone out! It’s time for our 15 min break to enjoy the festival!”
The figure stopped and stood up straight as the lights flickered on. Yuuta could now properly see that they were dressed in a yukata that had a gradient of a dark purple color into a light grey color. The sleeves were all tattered with holes and the person had black markings around their mouth.
“T-TOGE!!”
Gojo launched himself at the figure that’s been chasing them for the past few minutes. Toge quickly sidestepped Gojo and stood behind Yuuta. Gojo pouted and said “How rude Toge! To not accept a hug from me, you, my dear brother, are practically breaking my heart you know!”
Yuuta turned around to see Toge flipping Gojo off before huffing and motioning for them to follow him. They do so but not without Gojo constantly trying to touch Toge in some way. When they made it out, Toge sprinted to stand behind a girl with dark green hair in a ponytail and a chubby boy with black hair and white streaks.
“Toge? The hell is wrong with you?” The girl asked.
He hissed and made a rude gesture towards Gojo who pouted again. He gestured for the chubby boy to bend down and as he did, Toge began whispering in his ear. The girl also listened in as they did. There were several gasps of “Eh?” and “Really?”
“You better not be talking bad about me over there!” Gojo called out.
Nanami turned to Gojo and asked, “Am I right to assume that’s your brother, Gojo?”
Toge, piped up and he said, “No! My name is Inumaki Toge and I’m not biologically related to that asshat!”
The chubby boy turned to Toge saying, “But didn’t you just say…?”
“Toge’s adopted!” Gojo happily chirped out.
“AND I WISH I WASN’T!! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?! I TOLD YOU NOT TO COME AND VISIT BUT YOU JUST LOVE SCREWING ME OVER HUH?!” Toge screeched out.
“Hang on, you told him not to come?” Utahime asked.
Toge waved her off, saying “I don’t mind you guys. He’s the problem here.”
“So um...why don’t you like Satoru, Inumaki?” Geto asked.
“Well for one, he never picks up his laundry so his room smells like shit, he always ruins scary movies for me by covering my eyes during jumpscares, AND CAN I TALK ABOUT THAT TIME HE FORCED ME TO TAKE AN HOUR AND A HALF TRIP TO BUY CHIPS ONLY TO SAY HE DOESN'T WANT THEM?!” Toge flapped his arms about and kicked the floor in anger.
“He does that to you too?” Yuuta asked.
Toge’s eyes lit up, though he wasn’t smiling when he answered, “Yes. Absolutely. He’s a horrible brother and I hope he gets lost in a ditch.”
“I like your brother more than you, Gojo.” Utahime said. Nanami agreed and when Gojo turned to Geto to see if he also agreed. Gojo was surprised to see Geto looking away from him.
“Ack! Whatever! Toge? Do your older brother a favour and-” Toge cut Gojo off by promptly saying, “Do you want me to buy us both onigiri for breakfast only for you to eat them all while I’m in the bath?”
“Togeeee~” Gojo whined “Stop making me look bad in front of my friends! Anyways, not today. I need you to tell me what your student council planned for the culture fest-”
Once again, Toge refused to let him finish his plea before saying, “No. Absolutely not.”
‘I-Inumaki? Could you please tell us what you guys had in mind for the culture fest? You could even be vague about it if you want.” Yuuta asked.
Toge visibly brightened up, and said, “Of course! I’ll have to give you the plans tomorrow though if that’s alright with you?”
“Ah? Yeah. That should be fine. Thanks Inumaki!”
“TOGE WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE?!” The green haired girl suddenly yelled out.
“Woah, you sound mad…” The chubby boy deadpanned.
“Didn’t I just say? Gojo is the old man I talk about a lot. They’re probably his classmates...and one of them is his boyfriend? I think so anyways.” Toge explained “The girl is Maki Zenin and the boy is Panda. They’re my friends.”
Gojo’s presence suddenly became imposing as e said, “I do hope none of you are-”
Once again, Toge cut him off with a hard hit to Gojo’s abdomen. Toge claps his hands as if cleaning the dust away from them before saying, “Do you guys want to explore the culture fest with us? Experiencing it for yourself would be the best way to get ideas after all.”
“Oh. yeah. That’d be nice. Can we stop by Class 2-B? I need to give my younger brother his lunch.” Sukuna said as they began following Toge, Maki and Panda.
“Huh? Why’d you need to do that? Did he forget it again?” Nanami asked.
“Yeah. It’s not a big deal though. I’m his older brother so it’s normal to do this kinda thing.” Sukuna shrugged.
Toge paused, seemingly getting irritated again. He turned around and pulled Gojo down to his height using his grip on his ear. “DID YOU HEAR THAT YOU HOBO?! THAT’S HOW YOU BE A GOOD BROTHER!! YOU DON’T JUST LET YOUR YOUNGER SIBLINGS GO TO SCHOOL IN THE MORNING WITHOUT TELLING THEM THEY ONLY HAVE AFTERNOON CLASSES, LEAVING THEM TO THINK THEY’RE LATE!!”
“Oh. We’re here.” Maki noticed.
The door opened and three people peeked out. A girl with short brown hair, a boy with spiky black hair, and a boy that looks eerily similar to Sukuna if not without the two lines under the eyes peeked out.
“Inumaki-sen- Ah? Sukuna-nii?” The Sukuna clone said.
“Yo, Yuuji. We’re here looking around for ideas for our own culture fest. “ Sukuna greeted his brother and passed on the bag he was carrying.
“Inumaki-senpai is everything ok?” The black haired boy asked, to which Toge replied by saying, “A useless person pissed me off.”
“Jeez. Never seen the Onigiri Man get so pissed off before. This person must really be a shitty guy.” The girl quipped.
“Definitely.” Nanami replied.
“Mhm. Laziest person I’ve ever met.” Utahime agreed.
“I’d really prefer not to slander him like this but…” Yuuta trailed off.
“He’s so irritating. Not surprised his own brother hates him.” Sukuna said.
“You’re all so horrible! I’m not that bad! Right Suguru?” Gojo turned to Geto who looked him dead in the eyes before turning away, and saying, “Well...You aren’t the most truthful and...Inumaki um…”
Toge raises his arms in triumphant glee and declares, “Your boyfriend likes me better than you! Eat that Gojo!”
“Toge?!! Suguru?!!”
-x-
The rest of the tour around the festival was spent by Toge, Maki, and Panda sticking by Yuuta’s side as he is closest to their age. Many times, Toge would launch into another ‘Gojo rant’. Many times, Gojo attempted to win Toge over and show that he is a halfway decent older brother but then, Toge would fire back with a negative experience that happened because of Gojo.
“Ah!” They turn around to face Yuuji, “I just realized! Inumaki-senpai, why don’t you call Gojo-senpai by his first name if you’re brothers?”
‘Now that you mention it…” Megumi trailed off, “Yeah that is kinda weird.” Nobara finished.
“Huh? Why would I? I don’t know him. He’s just a waste of space that could keel over and die at any moment and I wouldn’t care.” Toge deadpanned.
“Harsh, Toge. He’s your brother man, have mercy.” Panda ruffled Toge’s hair.
Toge wrapped his arms around Yuuta’s waist in an attempt to get farther away from Gojo as he said, “I’ve lived with this freeloader since I was four. I’m sick and tired of him. He should just turn to dust and go away.”
-x-
When the younger students had to go away to tend to their own attractions, Utahime said, “Your brother’s really cool.”
“Hmph! After all I did for him!” Gojo pouted.
Suguru calmly said, “After all he said, you should be thanking him. He did a lot for you.”
“Kind of pathetic that he needs to be taken care of by someone younger than him all the time.” Sukuna noted.
“SHUT THE FUCK UP.”
-x-
At the end of the day, Yuuta, Gojo, Geto, and Sukuna were waiting. Sukuna was waiting for Yuuji, Geto was supposed to go home with Gojo, Gojo was waiting for Toge and Yuuta was...well he never explained what he was doing.
“Ugh! Where’s Toge?! I might as well just leave him already. He’s always so slow at doing things.” Gojo complained.
At that point, Yuuji came by and heard Gojo complaining about Toge. “Ah, did Inumaki-senpai not tell you? He stayed behind to help clean up the corridors.”
“Just like a proper member of the student council Gojo .” Sukuna said.
And with that, both Sukuna and Yuuji walked off and went home. As soon as they left, Gojo began complaining again, “I mean, he takes so long taking baths! Not to mention studying-”
“Probably because he thoroughly does both and doesn’t half-ass it.”
“Shut your face Yuuta. I just don’t understand why I have to wait for him!” Gojo continued.
“Didn’t he say you forget to pick him up so he has to hitch a ride with his friends?” Geto asked.
“Yes. I did.”
They turned around and there was Toge, Looking very unimpressed.
“Toge! Finally! C’mon. Let’s go-” Gojo, for the umpteenth time today, was cut off by Toge who said, “ I thought Yuuta told you? I’m not going home with you.”
“Huh?”
Yuuta handed Toge a helmet and gestured for him to follow him to the School’s parking lot. “Congrats! You just wasted your time Gojo! Yuuta’s taking me home. See ya Geto-nii!” Toge quickly waved at Geto and ran to catch up with Yuuta who was already on his motorcycle. Stunned, the couple watched them ride away.
“OKKOTSU YOU FUCKER!!”
Bonus Scene:
Yuuta and Toge were in front of Toge’s house. The two boys got off the motorcycle and Toge was still giggling. “Thanks for helping me fuck with Gojo and for taking me home.”
“It’s no problem. Consider it thanks for the help with the culture festival and stuff. Plus, he likes giving me student council work even though I’m not even on the council. I kind of wanted to fuck with him too.” Yuuta admitted.
“Aw, I thought you were a big overgrown puppy.” Toge smiled.
“...But?”
“There is no continuation to that sentence.”
