GAGGING AT THE concentrated smell of incense, Seia quickly opened his windows and turned on his purifier to somehow lessen the smell. The apartment was surrounded of fog due to the now ash of incense. Seia always hated their smell but now this was taking it too far.
So he left his bag, locked his door, and decided to visit Yuuji's grandpa. He bought some food for Yuuji (just sandwiches) knowing that he probably ran all the way to the hospital again. The streetlights were starting to turn on and the people were all busy trying to go home.
It was already night by the time he arrived in the hospital. The dark and silent hall gave him a heavy feeling of something weighing him down but Seia shrugged it off and surprisingly he felt light again. It must have been the fatigue talking.
He made his way to the reception just in time to see Yuuji talking with the nurses. Seia was about to yell his name but saw how gloomy Yuuji looked. Something must have happened but it must not be what Seia was thinking about right? It couldn't be...grandpa was very healthy yesterday...
" Itadori Yuuji, correct? " Seia jolted in alarm as he faced the person obscured by the shadows of the dimly lit halls. The stranger's voice sounded young and the uniform he wore looked like a gakuran of some local highschool (from what Seia could tell atleast).
" I'm from Jujutsu Highschool. I know you're mourning but-- "
" Yuuji? " Seia tried to insert himself as both faced his direction.
" Seia! What are you doing here? " Yuuji hurried over as Seia raised his arm that was carrying the sandwiches. The highschool kid looked a bit shocked but composed himself quickly.
" I didn't know a sorcerer would be assigned here too. "
" I'm sorry what? "

" So you're saying that what I found was a cursed object and that I should hand it over since it might cause a problem. " Yuuji nodded as he summarized what the kid told them. They were both standing as Seia sat down to munch into the sandwich he bought. It tasted like ash especially after hearing about what happened to Yuuji's grandfather.
" --I don't understand about Seia being a 'sorcerer' though. " Seia felt their gaze settle on him again as he tilted his head in confusion.
" I only know some simple card tricks. "
The stranger mumbled a few phrases that were too low for Seia to catch but judging from Yuuji's incredulous look it must have not been that important for now. He'll just ask him later.
" Anyway back to the main point, " the stranger reached out a hand as he sighed before giving Yuuji a deadpan stare, " can I have the box now please? "
" Alright alright but you better give my senpais a proper explanation. "
He handed the worn out box the size of a standard pencil case. It looked old and the talisman seal pasted in the front looked worn out. To think a small object like that could cause so much death... He opened it and from the quick shock filtering to his face, it must have been empty.
" WHERE ARE THE CONTENTS? "
" I TOLD YOU THE OCCULT CLUB HAS IT! "
" WHERE DO THEY LIVE THEN? "
Yuuji was about to shout before he suddenly seemed to think of something seriously. " They said something about peeling off the seal tonight at school. "
" Is something wrong? " Seia tried asking when the silence continued.
The stranger seemed flabbergasted at what Yuuji informed him about as he shook his head in frustration.
" It's not just bad... " he briefly closed his eyes tight before drawing a breath in and releasing it, " they'll die. "
" Huh? "
