Chapter Text
One day when Yuta received the mission to purify a low-level cursed spirit, the moment the cursed spirit turned into black smoke and disappeared into nothingness, a white light suddenly flashed from the center of the cursed spirit. Yuta quickly took a defensive stance even though he clearly couldn't sense the presence or cursed energy of any cursed souls around anymore.
‘Pop’
When the light dissipated, a 'pop' sound made Yuta immediately open his eyes, a small creature the size of a palm jumps out of nowhere, surrounded by colorful fireworks effects like in a cartoon.
“Huh ~”
The creature looked like a stuffed animal with small ears and a tail, and appeared to be wearing a black fur suit. It has wavy white hair and big, sparkling sky-colored eyes that are extremely adorable, oh, and small round sunglasses on the bridge of its tiny nose.
'Why does it look so familiar...'
“Ah..”
Going back a few seconds ago, when the cursed spirit was purified, it created a side effect of creating a Chimi plushie with the shape of the person that the purified person thought about the most.
“Gahhhhh”
“Ah!”
The plushie that appeared in mid-air suddenly became aware of gravity, falling freely like a ripe apple, making Yuta scared out of his wits so he ran as fast as he could to catch it. The plushie fell straight into Yuta's chest, his already sparkling eyes were now even more sparkling, feeling like he had just found a new world that belonged to him.
“Are you okay?”
“Hm! nah ~”
Yuta breathed a sigh of relief when the child in his arms didn't look hurt at all, but buried his face in his chest and looked extremely happy. Although Yuta doesn't want to judge potentially dangerous things by their appearance, but...
'So cute...'
It felt like the star candies stored in the heart-shaped drawer were melting, clinging to the sensitive, cat-like tongue of the special grade student.
'I shouldn't let my guard down but...it's obvious he won't do any harm, right? So cute...'
Yuta carefully watched as he held baby Chimi up high, his face similar to Gojo-sensei's was made as cute as possible to look like a 3 year old baby, making Yuta unwilling to try any purification method...
“What should I do..ughhh..?”
Seeing the person who had just saved him make a hesitant expression that looked both funny and awkward at the same time made Chimi-Gojo tilt his head in wonder.
“Obviously the best way is to thoroughly purify this kid..”
But the idea that had just been sparked before it could be brought into the discussion was immediately extinguished by the sparkling sky-colored eyes radiated an innocent aura like a newborn child that pierced Okkotsu Yuta's weak heart. And more importantly, this child has Gojo-sensei's face!! How could Yuta directly harm this lovely creature!
“Yuta, let me do it for you?”
Rika suddenly came out and proposed to purify this adorable little cotton ball when Yuta didn't look like he wanted to do anything with it.
“Rika-chan…thank you but let me think about it some more okay..?”
Small and cute..? Did Yuta try to look at Chimi-Gojo's arrogant face when he and Rika glared at each other?
“Do you want to come with us?”
When asked, Chimi-Gojo immediately gave up his fiery eye duel with Rika, then looked at the ocean color that was so gentle that it seemed like it wanted to hug him. Because he was born as a side effect of the curse, Chimi-Gojo knew how much this person cared about his main self. Because Chimi-Gojo is made up of memories and genes (a strand of white hair accidentally stuck to Yuta's body when 'someone' pulled him back and rubbed his shoulder like a cat marking its scent before going to work), so it can be said that he is still Gojo in many different senses.
And of course because he is also part of Gojo's genes, Chimi-Gojo also has a special sympathy for the human in front of him.
With the above information, the way Chimi-Gojo deduces Yuta's feelings is:
Yuta likes Gojo + Chimi-Gojo is also Gojo => Yuta likes Chimi-Gojo.
While patiently waiting for Chimi-Gojo's answer, Yuta was a little confused as he looked at the tiny plushie seriously contemplating something while smiling brightly.
“Yuta, uh nah, come!”
The plushie nodded firmly while jumping up and down in the palm of the special grade sorcerer's hand. Rika next to him had the feeling that Yuta had sunk so deep into this creature's cuteness that he couldn't let go...
