¤ (Y/n)'s Point Of View ¤

My eyes turned soft as I watched Gojo train Sukuna's vessel. He had a grin on his face the whole time, failing to take anything seriously. It was nice to know that some things never changed. I leaned my head against the tree bark, watching from afar as Itadori Yuuji failed to control his cursed energy. But Satoru never made him feel like a fool. I suppose that's what always made him a good teacher.

Gojo mocked Yuuji as he fell tiredly to the ground. I could hear his laughter from here. It made my heart ache with both anger and longing. I missed him. But I hated him. Sometimes, it was hard to tell which was more important to me. I huffed with amusement as Yuuji tried to kick Gojo, stopped by his infinity technique.

It must be annoying, to want to hit him but never be able to. I have never felt such a way. I've always been the exception for Gojo's techniques- not even he knew why. I was the only person that could sneak up on him, the only person that could touch him. If I wanted to slap him, I could slap him- and when I wanted to stab him, I stabbed him. I wonder if the wound scarred, or if he healed himself with his cursed energy that day.

Gojo looked so happy now, his smile as bright as ever. I wondered if his eyes were the same shade of blue that I remembered. He still wore my blindfold though. That probably means that he hasn't forgotten me- our friendship. He was great at hiding that though. Compared to me, he was doing great. Because despite my anger, I still checked up on him every once in a while.

My phone briefly buzzes in my pocket, snapping me out of my daze. I pulled it out of my skirt pocket, seeing that Geto had just texted me, asking me to come home now. I guess it was getting late. The sky was a dark shade of navy blue and the moon shone in full glory. Everyone was probably back in the base now, playing a game or something. I suppose it was time to return. I sighed as I took to my feet, balancing on the branch of the tree that I was sitting on.

I was fairly far from Gojo and the vessel, far enough that he couldn't sense my cursed energy as that was the only way he'd be able to tell I was there. His six eyes never worked on me and now I wondered if that was because he once promised me privacy always. I dusted off my skirt as I gave Gojo one last look, watching him stand with his arms crossed as he spoke to Sukuna's vessel. I should stop doing this. I needed to move on.

With that thought, I warped away, a gust of wind blowing over me. Ash and petals blew in the breeze- the only thing that could distinguish that I was ever there. I warped back to the hideout, appearing in the living room where I expected my brother to be waiting for me patiently.
"Suguru?" I called out softly, placing my handbag on the sofa as my eyes flickered around the room.

"Why are the curtains shut again? The moon is very pretty today." I told nobody in particular, walking over to the curtains and drawing them. I smiled softly as I laid eyes on the moon, it looking further away than it did minutes ago from the height of that tree and yet just as beautiful. I sighed as I took the next few moments to watch the moon, not yet noticing my brothers reflection against the glass.

"You went to see him again, didn't you?" I heard my brother ask from behind me. I jumped at his sudden voice and spun around to face him, hitting his chest lightly with my hand in fright.
"Suguru! Don't sneak up on me like that!" I scolded with a scoff, pushing past him as I made my way to the sofa.
"Don't avoid the question." He told me with pursed lips, making me stopping walking and sigh quietly.

"Yeah." I whispered shamefully, looking down at my feet with a frown.
"(Y/n), I thought we spoke about this?" Geto told me pointedly with a raised brow, seeming dissapointed.
"I only went to see the vessel! I feel like everyone's seen him but me!" I whined, now looking up at him. It was true. I did go to see Itadori Yuuji. It was a coincidence that Gojo was there too.

Suguru hummed with doubt, clearly not believing me. But still he let it go, ruffling my hair gently with a sigh.
"Fine. I'll pretend to believe that." Geto told me with a smirk, making me huff.
"Come. We have much to discuss." He told me, placing his hand on my lower back to guide me into the meeting room that was once a dining room. Mahito was inside already, playing with the shape of his fingers as he leaned against the glass doors that led to the outside.

"Mahito, are they here yet?" Geto asked as we walked in. My brother pulled out a chair for me and motioned for me to sit before walking over to the other side of the table and taking a seat himself.
"They? Whose they?" I asked him with confusion as I hesitantly sat down.
"Yes, they're wondering around the patio." Mahito answered, both of them completely ignoring my question.

"Bring them in." Geto ordered, making Mahito giddly leave through the sliding glass doors to retrieve the guests that i didn't know we had. I turned to my brother with furrowed brows.
"Who's they?" I asked again, baffled.
"(Y/n), do you remember our talk about the cursed womb spirits?" He asked me, making my brow raise. I vaguely remembered him talking about them- I mostly remembered being confused.

"Yeah..." I replied slowly. Geto began to grin slowly, a look he got only when his plans were going the way he wanted them to. My brother smirked mostly with his eyes, a sinister look really.
"I have revived three cursed womb spirits." Suguru told me proudly, making my eyes go wide immediately.
"Already? But Suguru, it's far too early." I objected, only because we still had weeks untill the Kyoto event and therefore weeks untill these spirits would be put to use. They'd grow restless and cause trouble.

"I know. I know." He sighed, brushing his fingers through his long black hair.
"I thought that they'd appreciate getting accustomed to this era for a short while untill their first mission." Geto told me, making me tilt my head with doubt.
"And if they start killing uncontrollably?" I asked him incredulously.
"What's harm will become of a little bloodshed?" The man asked me, causing me to glare. He began chuckling soon after.

"Don't worry, (Y/n). I've assigned a person to watch over each cursed womb- a tour guide, if you will." The man joked, making me sigh tiredly.
"A tour guide? Really, Geto?" I rolled my eyes, making him chuckle.
"You are to watch Choso." He told me, making my eyes go slightly wide.
"What? Geto! I didn't volunteer for this!" I whined, falling back into my seat.
"Exactly. You don't volunteer for much, (Y/n)." He told me, amusement no longer in his voice.

"You need to accept you're no longer a jujutsu sorcerer anymore. You are a curse user. I've allowed you to slack off this far because it seems to me that you're still mourning who you used to be. But it's time you move forward, (Y/n)." Geto told me sternly, making me look down at my lap. I wasn't mourning who I used to be, just reminiscing. But he was right. I need to do more now. It's time.

"Okay, fine. Who is this Choso that I'll be watching over?" I asked him, clearing my throat and getting over the bitter and sour taste in my mouth. My brother smiled at me, haply to see improvement.
"He is the eldest brother. He's not much of a talker and he's far more mature than his brothers so he shouldn't be much of a hassle. I'll assign two others for the other brothers." He told me, making me nod. A man who does not talk much? Considering I'm known to never stop talking, he's going to hate me really quickly.

"Alright." I told him and myself, nodding as I accepted the task. Before Suguru could say another word, the glass doors slid open and Mahito came bursting through- loud and proud.
"Now announcing the three cursed womb brothers~! Introducing the-" Mahito's loud obnoxious behaviour was cut off as a pale hand rested on his shoulder.

"I can manage with introductions." A deep voice told him, interupting Mahito's announcement. Mahito pouted as he moved to the side, allowing the mysterious man to step into the room. Two other stood behind him, silent as they allowed him to speak first. His hair was as black as mine, only contained into two messy buns. His eyes dark and weighted as if he had not slept for weeks. We made eye-contact very briefly before he looked away and began speaking.

"I am Choso. These are my brothers, Kechizu and Eso."
