Oh Shit I Dropped My Coffee and Ruined All My Set Clothes

Summary:

Exclusive Behind the Scenes of Jujutsu Kaisen!
by A. Ham

The new summer sensation Jujutsu Kaisen has a brilliant script, enormous funding and beloved cast members. The BBC were fortunate enough to be granted an opportunity for an exclusive interview with the cast members to get a sneak peek into the backstage workings of the show! Here are some of our favourite moments!

---

Or, the actor au where peace was never an option (and the manga/anime was too sad so author needed a safe space to play pretend with fictional characters)

Notes:

I’m gonna be 100% for real this was an absolutely crack idea that came at the most opportune time considering that S2 is starting to dive into the deep ends of the DEEP SAD and every new manga drop comes with a bucket full of stress. This is a space to live, laugh, and love, folks.

Now some credits for where credits are due.. I found some tweets here and here that inspired me (along with the fics linked above) to make some happy JJK content because god knows we need it. I just love them so much and I want to see them be goofy and stupid :3

Just a quick disclaimer: there will be more tags for people, relationships, etc. that I’ll add as the story goes on, bc EVERYONE will make an appearance. I am not kidding (probably) bc I have plans for everyone to be included :D

Chapter 1: Pilot

Notes:

(See the end of the chapter for notes.)

Chapter Text

"In one word, could you please describe what's it's like working at Jujutsu Kaisen?"

The camera is focused on a boy, light pink hair standing out with even more contrast to the dark background of the studio they are filming the interview in. The boy tilts his head and raises a hand to his chin.

"It's crazy."

The interviewer looks at the young boy. There is no elaboration. They suppose they did ask for just one word.

"Uh… Do you mean crazy in a surreal way? A I-can't-believe-I-made-it sort of way, if I may? After all, it is a star-studded cast… filled with A-list actors all around."

The boy — freshly new to the acting scene and yet set for the rest of his life — laughs. "Haha, that too, but I meant more crazy in a I-thought-we-banned-taking-in-stray-animals-we-found-on-the-sidewalk-next-to-the-Starbucks-but-the-new-one-just-took-a-bite-out-of-Kugisaki's-prop kind of way."

"Ah."

INSTAGRAM LIVE (👁️ 120K)

The frame is a singular shot of a girl, who starts out by adjusting her phone and absentmindedly saying hi and hello to the flood of people coming in.

She looks to be in the process of getting her hair done, with a couple of other people fussing over it and scurrying around in the background.

"Yes, hi, hello, it is indeed me, Kugisaki Nobara, ya girl, back at it on set. Don't let anyone tell you I don't work hard! I'm actually the first one here!" She huffs.

There's a string of emojis flying by the side of the phone, and a tidal wave of comments flooding her phone.

"Calm yourselves, you guys! My phone won't be able to handle the insane amount of you here! Thanks for being here, though, of course!" She waves her hand, half-heartedly, "Hey, maybe I should ask Gojo-san to buy me a new phone! God knows I need an upgrade from this shitty one from back when I still lived in the countryside."

She pauses to read comments. "Why not just buy it myself? Because that would be BORING! And Gojo-san’s loaded! Eat the rich and whatnot! Girlies, if there’s ever a lesson I want you to take away from me, it’s this: if you ever run into a rich man, steal all his money and leave him to rot."

She waves her hands at the comments that express doubt over her amazing life lessons. "Besides, Gojo-san is annoying!!! If you knew him for who he was, you would agree to taking all his money too. Fuck him for being a millionaire; annoying people should not be millionaires."

L, Gojo-san

gojo seems so cool though ;P

Notice me, Nobara-chan!!! 😍😍

AGREED EAT THE RICH

the queen coming in with the true life lessons‼️

HOW DO I BECOME A SUCCESSFUL ACTRESS LIKE YOU? pls help a struggling acting student 😭😭😭

Gojo should buy all of us new phones!!

omgg i finally managed to catch a nobara live

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I thought everyone on JJK was paid really well.. do we need to start a riot for you, Nobara-kun?

OMG IS THAT FUSHIGURO?????

MEGUMI CHANNNNNNN

OMG MEGUMI!!!!!!!!!

Nobara turns to greet her costar, who had walked into the makeup trailer while talking on the phone.

"No, mom, I swear everything is fine, you shouldn’t believe everything you read on the web. I wasn't even in that area-"

"Yo, Fushiguro!!" Nobara calls loudly. "I'm live! Right now there's… a hundred and twenty thousand people hearing your phone call with your mom."

Megumi steps into frame, his hair messy and curled as though he just woke up. He looks closer at the live, his hand holding his phone kept a distance from his head. He turns to look at his costar.

"Nobara, what the fuck. You were banned from doing lives on set for the foreseeable future."

MAMAGURO!!!!!

OMG MEGUMI LOOKS SO HOTTT

don’t mind us king, we’re only listening in on your every move to try and find content

HI MEGSSS

MEGUMI MEGUMI MEGUMI

"Look everyone!! It's our special guest, Fushiguro-kun!!" Nobara ignores Megumi and throws jazz hands around his face.

Megumi pushes them away. The two jokingly go at it until it dives into an actual game of catfighting. Nobara's elbow knocks into the phone, and the screen spins as muffled sounds come from the speaker.

"Oh shit-!"

There’s a scuffle, before the phone is picked up and Nobara comes back into frame.

"Fuck, my coffee!"

"Megumi, you f-"

LIVE ENDED

Notes:

I hope you all found it at least a little amusing; a short, sharp exhale at the funnies :D

Can’t believe we’re almost at the end of Gojo’s Past Arc in the anime. Suguru my beloved you deserved better boo. One more ep with him and we’re onto Shibuya 0-0’. That’s horrifying

Also, I just realized this is actually my first JJK fic :0 Hopefully my characterization of the characters don’t peeve off anyone. They are half-OOC because they’re supposed to be actors and I can’t make them the exact replica of their characters ;P I’ll still be keeping them as lose to canon characterization as I can without things being convoluted.

Also, here’s the plan: I’m going to try to update this fic at least once a week so that I can help you get through Jujutsu Thursdays with Season 2 (and everything that comes with it D,:)

I hope you enjoyed, and look forward to more!!
