When you and Sukuna leave the woods, Tenshi and Yuji are trying to build a snowman. Your friend is dressed in appropriate winter clothes as he instructs Tenshi to place the carrot on its face to make a nose. You shiver from the cold and you feel a cloth wrap around your neck. Sukuna is wrapping his scar around you. You thank him and rush to join Yuji and Tenshi in their snowmen-making. Sukuna smiled only for it to slowly turn grim as he watched his brother.


"And there ya go!" Yuji yells as he finishes his snowman. Tenshi stood beside his snowman as Yuji stood beside his snowman. Yuji made a Gojo snowman, the spikey hair and used a scarf to make a blindfold. Tenshi made a regular snowman. Giving him an adorable tophat and carrot as a nose and buttons. As Yuji stood proudly by his snowman, a sudden slash in the Gojo snowman appeared in the middle and sliced it in half. "Gojo-sensei!" Yuji yelled as he quickly grabbed 'Gojo's' upper torso.


Sukuna cackled as Yuji tried to fix his snowman. "Hurt my snowman again and I'll crush your goddamn toes!" Yuji yells, fixing his snowman.


Sukuna grinned and lifted his foot threateningly to kick it. Only to stop when he noticed you giving him a look. "Tch, you two are no fun," Sukuna grumbled as he placed his foot down. Meanwhile, you admire Tenshi's snowman and nod approvingly. "That's the most handsome snowman I have ever seen, Tenshi!" You praised him.


Now it was your turn to build a snowman. With heavy struggle, you rolled the big snowball around to build the base. For Sukuna's second face, you outlined it out of tree bark. After building the body you went around to gather a few twigs.


"Sukuna! Give me back my snowman piece!!" Yuji yelled as he chased after Sukuna, who held a ball of snow in his hands. You laughed and stuck four twigs into your snowman side, giving him four arms. Four pebbles to make four eyes and it's just missing something....


You snap your fingers take off the black scarf and wrap it around its neck. You then presented your snowman to Tenshi. "Lookie, it's Sukuna!" You cheered, holding your arms out as you presented your snowman to your brother-in-law.


"Whoa, he's so adorable!" Tenshi said, clapping at the cute creation. Though he's still not completed. You went to work on his hair and the tattoos.


Suddenly, you felt a large presence from behind you, a large shadow looming over you and your snowman. You glance up with a smile as Sukuna leaned down to peer at the snowman, while still holding the snowball out of Yuji's reach.
