Your hand stays on your chest as you try to stay calm and keep breathing. There's no telling how much damage you have internally, with how much smoke you inhale. The burns you received on your legs, which came from grabbing Sukuna from falling into the fire, are the least of your worries. You just hope your body doesn't shut down on you. Sukuna could also die from how much smoke he inhaled, he gave you his scarf. He barely covered his mouth after all. Glancing up, Sukuna looks at his fingers annoyed, they were burned really badly. The two of you are still in the woods, seeing the huge black smoke from the home over the sky. After getting tired of this silence, you decide to just talk to him.
"Now see at worst we could die of multi-organ system failure with all the soot we inhaled," you tell Sukuna out of boredom.
His gaze twitches in annoyance as you tell him this. "Brat if you don't stop telling me the many ways we could die, I will strangle you with that scarf," Sukuna sighed as he leaned against a tree.
"Alright, alright," you said, putting your hands up to show you're backing off.
Sukuna reaches into his kimono to look for the drawing, but he doesn't feel it. His eyes widened slowly as he searched desperately for the drawing. You weren't paying attention to him as you closed your eyes, your gaze turned to the sky. Sukuna searched everywhere, but the drawing was not on him! He must've lost it in the fire!
Sukuna is livid. Not only did he get hit with a precious memory, but your stupid fear burned down one of his sacred momentums! If only he could crush your puny neck right here. "Ugh, I hope the next place we find has a shower, ah but we need clean clothes too," you said, sighing. You glance back to Sukuna and notice he is scowling at you. Great, now what did you do?
"What did I do now?" you asked, now growing used to this.
"Everything, your good for nothing fear ruined everything," Sukuna fumed, not giving a good enough explanation to make sense. You were taken aback by this sudden display of anger. Somehow he looks more pissed than he ever did.
"What are you talking about?" you asked, confused.
"You go on about how this is your fear this and fear that. You do know you're not the only one stuck here! You're so goddamn annoying!!" Sukuna exclaimed as he stood up abruptly.
Your jaw slightly drops and you slowly close it. Well, this was new to Sukuna, he was expecting you to argue back like you always do. Though it's probably a good idea to try to calm him down, even just by two percent. There's a feeling leaving Sukuna like this will bite you in the ass later. You quickly stand as well, reaching into your back pocket. 'Ah, so you're going to challenge me brat?' Sukuna thought as he looked down at you with a scowl. 'Pretty cowardly to attack when you rely on an amulet to keep you safe.' Sukuna gets ready for any attack you will throw at him only to pause when he watches you pull out a piece of paper.
