You stood in a room with Gojo and Nanami.
"There's a serious flaw in Itadori's approach. He empathizes with the curses too much. It's a dangerous mindset."
Gojo smirked. "Well, he's got a good heart. Can't really blame the kid for wanting to see the good in everything."
"This isn't about having a good heart, Gojo. This is about survival. That empathy will get him killed—or worse, someone else. He needs to understand that curses are not something to sympathize with" Nanami said sternly.
Emphasizes curses..? He reminds me of my younger self. Weak.
Suddenly, your thoughts are interrupted by the sound of your name being called.Gojo waved his hand in front of your face. "Hey, you still with us? What's going on in that pretty little head of yours?"
"We need you to teach Itadori how to toughen up. You know better than anyone what happens when you let your feelings get in the way. If he keeps this up, it will be his undoing."
You glanced at both of them. "You want me to... teach him?"
"Exactly. You've been through this. You know what it takes to survive in this world. If you have to be aggressive and firm with him, so be it" Nanami replied.
"Besides, you're the best at knocking some sense into stubborn people. It's practically your specialty" Gojo tapped your head and grinned at you.
You looked at them, your mind now racing with the task they've placed on your shoulders. You sighed and nodded.
"Alright. I'll do it. He's got potential, but if he doesn't learn to harden up, he won't last long. I'll make sure he gets it."
"Good. It's not about losing who he is, but about ensuring he survives. We need him to understand that."
"Just don't go too hard on him. We don't want him breaking down in tears or anything" Gojo told you teasingly and poked you on the side.
You slapped his finger away.
You found Itadori in the room where he was always held in.
"Hey" you made yourself known in the room, Itadori looked at you. You noticed an upset look on his face.
Nanami probably gave a scolding of his own too.
"You probably know why I'm here to talk to you, Itadori" yo crossed your arms, Itadori didn't reply.
"You've got a soft spot for curses, Itadori. It's getting in the way." You broke the ice.
"They were people with lives! They had families, friends... just like us!" Itadori got defensive, you scoffed.
"Exactly! They WERE people with lives, but they're not anymore. They're curses now, dangerous and destructive!" You shouted back at him.
Itadori opened his mouth to respond, but your words hit him hard. He clenched his fists, frustration boiling up inside him.
