Using her back, Natsuki slams the front door closed behind her. She holds her empty coffee mug in her hands and shakes her shoes off, letting them land messily on top of Yuji and Gojo's shoes.

She walks into the living room and spots both Gojo and Yuji bent over the kitchen side, their hands busy in a tray she recognizes all too well...

"Hey! Oi!" She stumbles over to them, shooing them away as she inspects the demolished brownies that remain as only crumbs in the tray. She rubs her face and sighs. "I'm glad you two liked them, but they weren't meant to be eaten like this!"

Gojo leans on the counter, picking up the crumbs from the tray. "Oh?" His eyebrows quirk upwards. "How were they meant to be eaten then?"

Looking at him with a slightly annoyed look, she grabs the tray and puts it in the sink to rinse. "They were meant to be eaten together! Or in smaller portions at least," she points at the crumbs around both Yuji and Gojo's lips.

Before Gojo can respond, Yuji cuts him off by bowing, "Sorry, ma'am! But Mr. Gojo told me that you would be okay with us eating it all in one go!"

"Mr. Gojo?!" Gojo turns to Yuji creepily as Natsuki frowns, her eyes going dark. "Ma'am?! God, what is it with you boys and calling me 'ma'am'? What do I look like to you? A granny? Christ!" She resists flicking the boy before turning to Gojo, who's holding his hands over his mouth, giggling. She points to him accusingly, "And you! What's so funny, Satoru Gojo? You got called 'Mr.', which is arguably worse!"

"God, you're funny when you're angry," he chuckles, annoying her even more.

"I'll show you angry in a sec—" she catches herself, attempting to conceal her loud and embarrassing words with the palm of her hand. God, Natsuki! Whatever happened to 'not rivals but not friends'?

"Sheesh, Hirai! Good on you for telling Mr. Gojo off! He does get awfully annoying, doesn't he?" Yuji chuckles, wiping the crumbs around his lips off with the back of his sleeves. For once, she agrees with the kid. "He does, yes." She shoots Gojo a look before smiling to reassure him she's just teasing.

Quickly wiping the crumbs onto the floor, she hops up onto the kitchen side and begins swinging her tired legs. "You guys doing anything tonight?"

Gojo shrugs his shoulders, stuffing his hands in his pockets as he leans on the counter next to her. "Not really. Probably just watching some more films." He turns to Yuji, a playful smile on his face. "That okay with you, Yuji?"

He instantly shakes his head and hands. "No! No, no, no! I'd rather just go home if you want to watch more movies!" Natsuki tilts her head, inspecting his distressed face. "Why not? You scared of Gojo's teen dramas—?"

Gojo's quick to silence her, not touching her but holding a finger in front of her mouth as he dashes in front of her. "No! Nope! Not that, we just don't know what to watch, right, Yuji?" His neck cracks as he whips his head over to the boy.

"I mean, we have a big enough selection, right?" He points out a massive pile of DVDs behind him in front of the TV. When did those get there?

"If you don't know what to watch, then I have a recommendation! Well, it's not quite something I'd watch... but this boy I was talking to, who's around your age, Itadori, and he recommended *Human Earthworm Four*. He had this really cool emo haircut, and he seemed so interested in it, but I think it just sounds gross." She's never been a horror fan, but perhaps they are.

Yuji lights up, nodding. "Oh wow, I do love the first three, but I didn't know four was out already."

"Hmm.." She shrugs at him. "I don't actually know if it's—" Gojo makes an 'X' with his arms, shaking his head. "There is NO way I'm watching a movie with such a gross name!"

"Oh!" Natsuki's ears flush red as he denies the one film she had dared to recommend.

"No offense, but *Human Earthworm Four*? That sounds gross." He stands back up, ignoring Yuji as he silently begins boxing the air around Gojo.

"It wasn't even my recommendation, so no offense taken." She hops off the side and walks back over to the doorway between their rooms and the kitchen. "If I were to recommend a film, it would be a good one, like *Whisper of the Heart*." She waves to the pair as Yuji crosses his arms grumpily. "But that's just my opinion. Goodnight now!"

She disappears into her room, and Yuji walks around grumpily. "*Whisper of the Heart*?! Sounds romantic and gross! Way more gross than *Human Earthworm Four*!" He nudges Gojo, who seems happily lost in his own world. "Eh, eh?"

"Absolutely not!" He snaps out of his daydream and pushes Yuji gently, cackling.
