"WAZUPPPP!" gojo boomed from near the stairs that led down to the track. "how's it goin'?" he asked yuta.

"oh, it's going-"

"don't get distracted, newbie," maki instructed him, while slapping her staff into yuta's face.

i had to hold my hand over my mouth to stiffle the laughter fighting to leave my mouth like a child. when i looked to my side, inumaki just playfully rolled his eyes at me.

gojo walked down the stone steps to stand beside panda, as i sat on panda's other side. next to me sat inumaki.

yuta and maki continued to spar, yuta not even managing to land a single blow on her. it was a little sad, but it was also funny as fuck.

"it's been three months since yuta came to jujutsu high. his movements are getting better everyday," panda observed.

"salmon," inumaki thoughtfully agreed.

"even his personality is more positive now," gojo added.

"salmon roe."

"and maki looks like she's having more fun too," panda continued.

for me, it's been two and a half months since i've joined jujutsu high. i've already been promoted to first grade.

gojo said the only reason that i couldn't be promoted to special grade was because i couldn't actually exorcise the curses, just trap them in the orbs that i would hand to gojo after missions.

i've assimilated much more smoothly than yuta, probably because of my more traditional cursed technique. not only that, but i've progressed much quicker.

not to crush yuta's moment or anything.

"yeah, i don't think she's got to spar very often with other weapon-" i tried to add on before panda cut me off with a loud gasp.

"I'VE HAD A REVELATION! HEY YUTA, COME HERE! COME OVER HERE," he boomed, waving his arm in the air. him and inumaki walked down the steps to meet yuta, while i stayed back.

i already knew what he was plotting.

"huh? what's up panda?" yuta asked as he ran over to panda.

panda whispered something is yuta's ears, causing yuta to spit out a jumble of words in response, his face flushing pink.

"MAKIIII! you have a shot!" he excitedly informed her, spinning around like a ballerina before stopping to smile.

"what crazy ideas are you getting in that head of yours?!" she spat, marking the beginning of their argument/fight.

"what are they fighting about?" yuta giggled as i finally walked down to the step right above him and inumaki. i rested my chin on the top of inumaki's head, predicting his response.

"kelp," me and inumaki mumbled in unision, earning a another soft giggle from yuta.

i wonder if yuta understands any of what inumaki says. he still seems a little tense around him.

"oookaayyy, gather round," gojo said as he walked down the stairs. "you two, continue training- or whatever it is you're doing," gojo spoke, pointing at panda and maki childishly fighting for control of her weapon, before she snatched it and hit him over the head.

"toge, you've been requested for a curse that you're perfect for. shouldn't take you too long to exorcise it," our teacher continued.
