Jujutsu Kaisen X OC (The Red String of Fate)

【 CHAPTER 2 】 Acceptance

Inari's POV

Itadori, in the most absurd yet somehow effective way, managed to suppress Sukuna and regain control of his body.

Which should have been a victory! Should have been.

Because while Yuuji was still catching his breath, Fushiguro decided to go full sorcerer mode.

"Under Jujutsu regulations, Itadori Yuuji, I will exorcise you as a curse!"

WHAT?!

"Absolutely the fuck NOT!" I shrieked, nearly throwing myself in front of Itadori like I was shielding a royal heir.  "Try it, and I'll personally bury you!"

Fushiguro's eye twitched, clearly not expecting resistance from me of all people.

Meanwhile, Itadori threw his hands up like he was getting arrested. "H-Hold up! I'm fine! See?! Totally normal! We're all beat up—shouldn't we be heading to a hospital instead?!"

I grabbed Itadori's face, tilting it side to side, inspecting for any lingering cursed marks. The black lines were gone.

"Yuuji?!"

"Yeah, it's me. It's me," he reassured, rubbing my back comfortingly.

His hands were warm. Ah~~ it's my Yuuji...

Fushiguro, meanwhile, was still in existential crisis mode. "I can't tell if the one speaking right now is Itadori or the cursed object. Damn it! What should I do?!"

And just as things couldn't get any weirder—

"What's the situation?"

A new voice cut in, out of nowhere.

I whipped around so fast I nearly snapped my own neck. Standing there, casually like he hadn't just materialized from the void, was a man with a blindfold.

What. The. Hell.

Fushiguro groaned. "Gojo-sensei?! Why are you here?!"

Gojo...? Wait, Satoru Gojo? I blinked, recognizing him instantly. Oh. Him.

Wow. He looked... different from when I last saw him. It had been a year—no, two. The last time was when he dragged me into some meeting about an Okkotsu-something guy.

Gojo's head tilted as he finally noticed me. "Oh? No way! Inari Kamikaze, gracing us with her presence? I could've sworn you swore off all this sorcery nonsense!"

"Yeah, well, Blame fate." I waved a hand. "I had a plan, and then—life came at me fast, and I had to wing it."

"Inari...?" Itadori blinked between us, looking like a lost puppy.

Oh. Right. Introduction time.

I cleared my throat. "Yuuji, this is Gojo Satoru—my very distant cousin. And Satoru, this is Yuuji, my boyfriend. Introductions over."

A/N: She's not lying they are distant cousins despite no direct blood relation.

Gojo just stared at me. Then at Yuuji. Then back at me with a look that said, You rejected me for him? looking personally offended.

I shot him a glare saying And what exactly is wrong with my baby?

Fushiguro was still waiting for an actual explanation. "Sensei! What are you doing here?!"

Gojo ignored him entirely. "Hey, I wasn't really planning on showing up, but man, you look rough! I gotta show this to the second-years." He whipped out his phone taking pics. "C'mon, look this way!"
