Nighttime in Japan's cities were almost just as busy as the daytime. M/n had strayed away from Hanami and Jogo, not being able to take anymore of the hot-head complaining about being beaten. He had put on his human disguise like he was ordered to and was just walking around. The noise and the city air were a lot to get used to a year ago when he was first summoned. But now it was just mute to him. Walking among the people gave him some sense of familiarity after what happened a thousand years ago.

As M/n walked through the crowds and crowds of people, he noticed a couple of grade one and three curses floating around and hanging off window sills, etc. They weren't being a bother just yet. But they were staring. The curses could feel the power of his aura from a mile away, which was why they were being so cautious. One curse, however, on that was hardly a grade one decided to start some trouble, not knowing any better.

The worm like curse floated down to M/n and wrapped itself around his neck. The boy froze in the midst of the crowd, making a couple of ongoers scoff and curse him angrily for stopping so suddenly against the surge of people. The curse snuggled and moved against M/n's neck, leaving a mess of slime in its wake. A moment later, M/n snapped, and the little curse exploded in an instant, its entrails getting all over the pavement and M/n's clothing.

"So messy. That should teach all of you better than to even lay a single one of your limbs onto me." M/n looked up at the curses that witnessed everything go down before them. All of them cleared out the area immediately to get away from the monster they saw before them.

"Vermin. Rot in hell." M/n snapped once again, and the curses that were running off met the same fate as the small one before. The purple like blood rained down onto the streets, only to be seen by him and-

"Wow~ Neat trick you got there. Though you do have a little something on your neck there." M/n looked up to see the white-haired male before him staring at him with his ocean hues and a wide smile. "I think you should come with me to get that all cleaned up, okay?"

"Hm. And who might you be?" He asked with a singular eyebrow raised, and eyelids drooped in feign suspicion.

"Oh, forgive me. I'm Satoru Gojo. Now that we've gotten that out of the way, will you come with me?"

"You seem a little suspicious, Satoru Gojo. You saw what I did to those curses. What's stopping me from doing the same to you?"

"Aweee, c'mon! What part of this face looks untrustworthy?"

"Every single bit of it. Even so..." M/n looked him over and hummed softly. Before he started to walk again, he spoke one last time. "I like tea."

M/n and Gojo stopped at a local cafe after their run-in with each other. M/n held a glass tea cup in his hand and took a small taste to deem if it was just as good as quality as the café claimed it to be. It was indeed what it was cracked up to be, so he drank a little more the next time he picked up the cup. Setting the glass down on the small plate, M/n looked up that the male in front of him, who was just watching him without taking anything any bites out of anything he ordered.

"So, about what exactly happened back there. You're probably wondering why I even bothered to stop you in the first place."

"I know why. There is no need to explain. Why would you need to speak about what I did? You see them too, and I'm assuming you know just how much of a nuisance they can be when they just...crawl all over you like that."

"You seem to be a bit bothered. Not to say that I wouldn't be too of they could touch me."

"Don't feel a need to elaborate. I don't wish to know. What I do want to know is why you're trying to butter me up."

"Woah, hey now! We were just getting to that, weren't we! See now, I work for a school in Tokyo known as Jujitsu High. And what you did, which was killing the curses, is what I like to say we Jujitsu Sorcerers like to strive for."

"If your aim is to get me to join, then you're going to have to try harder than that, Satoru Gojo." Gojo's smile still kept on his face as he handled the immediate rejection from the boy in front of him.

"You're smarter than you look. However, what if I were to tell you that I know exactly what you are?" M/n wasn't surprised. Despite his rather dumb attitude and his aura, Satoru Gojo was known to be rather perceptive. According to Geto, they're both on par with each other when it came from intelligence.

"You're smarter than you look as well. It's almost to the point of frightening me. Though you could keep dreaming on that part. Even if you were to know who I was, why do you want me to join you?"

"It's obvious. You are close to Sukuna."

"Hm, now that's a name I haven't heard in a millenia. What does this have to do with him, though?"

"Sooo many questions and sooo little time. You're almost boring me. And you weren't known to exactly talk first, were you?"

"Just get to the point, Gojo."

"Anyways, Ryomen Sukuna has found a vessel. Yuji Itodori has managed to survive eating one of his many scattered fingers. The higher-ups, or my bosses, plan to execute Yuji Itadori after he has consumed all of the fragments of Sukuna."

"Their plan is to find all of Ryomen as soon as possible and despose of him. There's twenty fingers as far as I'm aware. You plan to use me to find all of them quicker. I hate to break it to you, but I'm not a radar for you and your old asses to use!"

"Sorry about that, but I know you have some sort of information on him. You two were rather close...right~?"

"That was years ago. That was over and done with before we both were sealed."

"And here I thought the love birds were going to want to see each other again. I know that Sukuna is eager. What's he think when his attempt to rekindle an old flame was denied upfront."

"You can go fuck yourself. I'm not dealing with you any longer."

"I won't keep you. I know that you probably have better things to do than to talk with me. Anyway, here's my contact information if you change your mind."

"I won't. But it'll be useful to have. I suppose I have to repay you for the meal."

"A curse has money?"

"Something like that." M/n begrudgingly took Gojo's contact information and pocketed it seconds later after folding it up.

"I have one last question for you." He sighed and turned back around to face the man.

"What is it now? Last question, and then I'm gone."

"Do you ever let your actual vessel get some air?" Gojo asked with a small head tilt. "I mean, do you ever let him take control of the body every once in a while?"

M/n was surprised. Gojo couldn't tell that this wasn't a vessel? He could use this for his to his advantage.

"No. And I don't plan on letting him show himself. We made a deal. End of story."

"Hm, interesting. Alright, I suppose I can let you go. I'll be seeing you later then~"

"Oh hey~ You're back! I was beginning to think that Hanami left you for dead~ Did you just see that awesome point that I just made?" M/n just glanced at the blue haired curse and laid down on the beach chair that was laid out before him. Geto approached him and sat in the chair beside M/n his signature smile present as he looked out towards the clear ocean.

"So, what did you manage to see on your little outing?" M/n remained silent as he looked out towards the sea just as Geto was doing. "Come on, you don't come in here looking almost annoyed that often."

"I met with Satoru Gojo. He saw through me, but he didn't know I'm not using a vessel. He offered me a place at Jujitsu High. I...also found out that Sukuna knows I've been unsealed and has been actively looking for me ever since yesterday."

"We could use you to our advantage. Considering both of your histories together."

"N-No. I don't plan on seeing him or Gojo again. I'll attack with you on October 31st."

"Incase you forgot. We made a deal. I hope you don't plan on defying me. You'll be taking that offer, and we'll help on the sidelines. Sound good?" M/n was silent for a long while before nodding.

"Good. Now, Mahito is calling you. Go see what that's about." M/n nodded once again before getting up and walking towards the curse who called him over.

"So~ How do you feel about a trip to the movies..?"
