Chapter 1: The Day Everything Changed
Tumblr media Tumblr media
“Oh. The flowers? Is it a special day?” Gojo asked, poking his head into your empty classroom as you sat at your desk grading papers. 
The roses he spoke of were in a pristine glass vase. A gift from your boyfriend.
“Kento got them for me for our anniversary,” you replied shortly. 
“Oh really? How long has it been now?” he asked, cocking his head to the side as if thinking. 
“Two years,” you replied. 
Surely he knew. How couldn’t he? The two of you had history and call it arrogance but given that history you were sure he kept tabs on your romantic life. 
“Congratulations,” he said, though his enthusiasm seemed forced.
It was enough to make you snap 
“Is there a reason you came to see me?” you asked. 
He smiled and walked into the room fully now, a pink bag in his hand and placed it on your desk next to the flowers. 
“I got you a souvenir from when I went to Kyoto,” he said, seemingly pleased with himself. 
Curiosity winning out, you peered into the bag to find a medium sized white box. Taking the box out, you lifted the lid and gasped. 
“It’s Kyogashi! Oh Satoru you shouldn’t have,” you said with glee at him having gotten you your favorite flower sweets.
Caught up in the moment you stood from your desk and hugged him. His chest vibrated as he laughed at your enthusiasm. His arms enveloped you as well and you felt his hands stroke your hair. Pulling back, you saw him looking down at you.
“It’s been a while since we’ve been this close,” he said, the corners of his lips flickering upwards. 
Your face flushed beet red as he referenced your past with him. 
“For good reason,” you said, shoving him away. He reluctantly let you go. Straightening your blouse, you hoped his cologne didn’t linger on your clothes. You wouldn’t want to have to explain that to Nanami. 
“Have you ever told him about us?” Gojo asked, as if reading your mind. 
“No. That’s all in the past. It was a long time ago so there’s no need to bring it up. Besides, you broke up with me. Remember?” 
He appeared visibly hurt at your words, but there was no denying the truth in them. He had been the one who had ended things with you, even if it had been in an unorthodox way.
“Remember what?” Nanami walked into the room, having caught only the last of your words. You seemed flustered but luckily Gojo was quick on his feet as always. 
“She was just reminding me that it’s the two of you’s anniversary,” he said. 
Nanami walked over to you and placed an arm around your shoulders as he always did for comfort. 
“Oh good. That’s exactly why I’m here to take her out for dinner. Otherwise she’ll work herself to death,” your boyfriend said laughing slightly. He peered over at your desk at the box  and asked, “what are these?” 
“Gojo got these for me as a souvenir from his mission in Kyoto,” you replied.
You’d never lie to Nanami, he didn’t deserve that. Plus it wasn’t unusual for Gojo to bring everyone souvenirs of some sort. 
“Oh that’s nice. You deserve so many sweet things, darling,” he said, giving your shoulder a gentle squeeze. He then addressed Gojo, “if you’ll excuse us I made reservations for us tonight so we really must be going.” 
Nanami led you to the door, but not before stopping to grab your purse and drape it over his shoulder to carry it for you. 
Tumblr media
“I wish we could stay like this forever,” you said, snuggling into Gojo’s chest.
The two of you were laying down in a hammock outside, basking in the sun. Since there had been nothing pressing and it was an ‘off day’ the two of you had hiked near the outskirts of campus to set up the hammock and relax. 
“So do I,” he replied, his lips grazing the top of your hair. 
It was a nice spring day, the kind where the warmth of the sun shot dopamine into your veins and made life worth living again. Take into account the added warmth of Gojo’s body and you couldn't imagine a better place to be.  
These getaways between the two of you had been more frequent and a secret from the rest of your cohort at jujutsu high. It’s not that the two of you had intended to make things secret, but you both found comfort and beauty in the privacy your relationship had to offer. 
You felt Gojo’s lips at your jawline, trailing kisses there. 
“Listen, about this upcoming mission…” he began what had been a source of contention between the two of you this past week. 
“I know what you’re gonna say. I’m not staying behind, Yaga said I’m ready.” 
You looked up at him, he was silent for a moment, his mouth forming a rigid line. Snuggling into him more, you tried to break down his resolve. “Satoru, you don’t have to worry about me, I can handle myself.” 
His crystal eyes softened behind his frames and he pressed another kiss on top of your head before speaking.
“It’s not that I don’t think you’re ready. It’s not about Yaga thinking you’re ready. It’s just that special grade curses are different. They are on another level.” 
“Well if it’s not about me being ready then what’s it about?” you pressed. 
His cheeks grew pink.
“I just can’t lose you. I can’t stand the idea of you being hurt,” he said. 
It was the closest to a confession about his feelings you’d gotten. He was sweet, affectionate, caring, and very much protective. But one thing Gojo struggled with was voicing his feelings. The fact that he did so now emphasized to you how serious he was about the upcoming mission and the danger it presented. 
“I know, but that’s why you’ll be there to help protect me. Plus there’s Nanami, Yaga said he’d be going too.” 
Gojo nodded, but his eyes had again taken that look where he seemed so far away in thought. You often wondered if his mind was occupied by the intersection of cursed energy and humanity as he always seemed lost in complex thought. But oftentimes when you’d catch him in this rumination, he’d quickly snap back to his carefree self, leaving you wondering if you had imagined it. This time, he let his rumination linger. 
“Satoru, I’ll be fine. It’ll all be fine,” you said, softly inching upwards to snuggle your face into his neck, breathing in his ocean breeze scent. 
“You better be, because I don’t know what I’ll do if it’s not.” 
With the conviction he said it, you wondered if it’s the first time in his life Satoru Gojo felt truly vulnerable. 
Tumblr media
“How are you liking your meal?” Nanami asked over a bite of his own steak. 
“It’s excellent. The salmon and lobster are to die for,” you replied. 
The waitress stopped by and asked if the two of you needed anything. Nanami asked for more champagne as it was a special night. 
The thing about Kento Nanami is that he was a lot more loose and laid back than people would think, of course under the right circumstances. Holidays and anniversaries provided those circumstances. Of course there was you, whenever the two of you were in a room together, people saw a side of him they usually didn’t see, a doting and affectionate side. 
“My love, I want to take a moment to thank you for spending these past two years with me. Every moment of everyday you’ve given me something to live for,” he said. His hand reached out over the table to cover your free one, the warmth of his calloused palm made you shiver. You couldn’t help but compare his hand to Gojo, whose skin was soft. 
No, that wasn’t right. 
Why were you thinking of Gojo right now? You love Nanami, you have always been certain of that. 
“Love?” Nanami questioned, worry forming behind his spectacles. 
“I should be thanking you, Kento. You’ve treated me like a princess these past two years,” you replied. 
He smiled, and it reached his eyes. 
“I love you,” he said. 
“I love you too,” you said. 
You loved Kento Nanami and his calloused hands you knew he had acquired from his years of hard work, both physical and mental labor that shaped the foundation of who he was and his beliefs. It was better to leave Satoru Gojo and his soft hands in the past, there was no place for him or them in your life anymore.  He had been the one to make that clear.
Tumblr media
“Just stick by me and you’ll be fine,” Gojo said to you as the three of you came upon a corporate office in the special wards of Tokyo. 
The veil had been cast and the area had been blocked off by authorities so there wasn’t any concern of civilians being caught in the crossfire, or so it would seem.
“Remember this special grade can shapeshift, so it’s best we stick together. From the reports, it’s intelligent so it’s been camping out in this office building and luring victims inside using its shape shifting abilities,” Nanami said, giving you two a rundown in case you hadn’t done your homework.
Maybe other times he’d be justified in doing this, as Gojo was known for winging it, but given your presence, he had made you read the reports with him over and over. 
So you knew that not only was the special grade curse a shapeshifter, but that it had been luring victims all over Toyoko in different places for the past few months. Due to its intelligence, the trail of it had gone cold as it was acting as a serial killer of sorts and had covered its tracks once it had sensed it was being hunted. 
Most wicked of all the curse seemed to have had access to a missing person database and therefore transformed into the missing person and lured friends and family to their deaths. 
It was awful, but it explained why Gojo was so worried, the curse exploited those dear to you. 
“I should go in first, and scope it out. If I see it I’ll exorcise it,” Gojo said. 
So much for sticking close to him, you thought. 
“That wasn’t the plan,” Nanami refuted, “Yaga said we should stick together. Besides, it’s more logical that way. If it turns into you and we’re separated it can cause more confusion.” 
“It can’t copy my techniques,” Gojo said, unconcerned and determined to go at it alone, no doubt his intention was to protect you. 
“We don’t know that for certain. It hasn’t transformed into a sorcerer before. It’s best we stick together on the off chance it can mimick more than appearance.” 
Gojo’s jaw was clenched. Nanami had him backed into a corner with his logic, there was no refuting it. Whether splitting up or staying together, there would still be risks posed to you. 
His eyes locked with yours, but he made it seem as he was talking to the both of you. 
“Stick by me.” 
Tumblr media
“Mmm, Kento” your head fell back in pleasure as he laid kisses down your neck, the door to your shared penthouse apartment just closing behind you. His kisses were heated and lustful, bringing out a side of him only you had the privilege of knowing. 
“I want you, badly.. need you right now,” he said through gritted teeth. 
“Fuck, so take me,” you replied. 
He picked you up, effortlessly as though you were weightless, carrying you to your bedroom. He plopped you down on the bed and you fell back against the silken sheets. 
“You’re so beautiful. I’ve been thinking about this moment all day,” he confessed as he undid the buttons of your blouse. You helped him shrug it off your shoulders until it was discarded to the side. That left you in your bra, breasts spilling out of the tight cups, a lone nipple just managing to peek through the top. Nanami cursed, hardening at the nip slip. He couldn’t seem to help himself as he bent forward to kiss you again, the kiss festering into a passionate make out of tongues, the stream of salvia that connected the two of you even after you broke apart served as evidence for the heated exchange. 
“Ken,” you whimpered, the jolt of heat between your thighs growing painful. 
“I know, all in good time,” he cooed. He groped your breasts, squeezing them slightly so they spilled over in the cups, both nipples fully exposed now. His hands moved quickly to undo your bra, fully removing it now. His lips found yours again, and you moaned into the kiss as he massaged your sensitive breasts. With shaky hands, you began to unbutton his shirt, revealing his muscled torso. The kiss became hungrier as you palmed at his pants to undo his zipper, when your hand made contact with his hard on, he muttered a faint “oh fuck,” against your lips. He gently pushed you back so you were laid down on the bed fully as he positioned himself on his knees in front of you. Quickly, your lower half was undressed panties and all until you were completely naked before him. 
“So beautiful,” he praised once again, his face inched forward and you knew what he was going to do, “and all mine,” he added before his tongue licked at your folds. 
You gasped, grasping at the silken bedsheets to stabilize yourself as he continued to pleasure you. His fingers began to join in and between them and his tongue he was crafting a symphonic arrangement uniquely curated to you and all your sensitive parts. His fingers stimulated your clit while he lapped at your arousal which continued to flood, overflowing and dripping on his chin. 
“Kento, yes..it feels so good,” you moaned. He picked up the speed and as he did your hands went from the bedsheets to his hair, in an effort to be even closer, you pressed his face against your sex. You cried out as you felt the friction from his frames against your vulnerable skin. 
All the white he continued to lap, the lewd noises of your wet skin and his lips permeating the dark room. 
“Ken-I’m so close,” you warned. 
“So cum then, cum all over my tongue,” he panted before resuming. 
His voice, so animalistic, so unhinged and unlike his usual composed self, set you on edge and you felt your toes curl as the familiar sensation of an orgasm overtook your body. 
Gasping for air, you felt your body give out to the sweet release as below Nanami lapped it all up. 
“Tastes. So. Good,” he said each word between laps, savoring it.
By this point, you had fallen fully back against the bedsheets, hands over your head, your ribs and breasts rising and falling as you caught your breath. The view of Nanami, glasses drenched with moisture, hair flopping out of its usual gel style, and mouth puffy and pink made your heart race. And it began to race even more as he stood up, undid his tie, and shrugged off his shirt you had unbuttoned. His glasses soon followed, revealing his stunning hazel eyes. Finally, his pants and boxers were discarded. 
Although you and Nanami had been very sexually active these past two years, it still caught you by surprise how big his cock was. It was long and the girth was impressive, and his pink head was the same color as his lips.
“We’re not done yet,” he whispered, lining himself up with your sex. “Spread your legs even wider for me, love.” 
You did as he asked and the glow of the city lights coming in from the window shining on his skin made him all the more handsome. You felt his mushroom tip fetter its way into your folds easily and you both moaned in unison at the skin to skin contact as he slid his length into you. When he completely bottomed out inside you, he paused for a moment, allowing himself to soak inside of your warmth. 
“You feel so good,” he sighed in complete bliss. Throughout your relationship during your pillow talk and aftercare he had described being in you as being in a domain. All he could feel was you, as though all he was ever meant to do was be inside of you, every moment of his life all the hard work and hours he has put in as a salaryman and a sorcerer had been to lead him to this moment, soaking inside of you, his heaven and his relief. He rested his forehead against yours for a few moments, the two of you savoring the sensation and tension of the unprotected contact that felt just as good as the first time even after two years. Shaky breaths and whimpers were the only sounds in the room. That is, until he spoke again. 
“Tell me you love me,” he requested,”need to hear it again.”
“I love you,” you replied, genuinely. 
“I love you too,” he reciprocated. 
He then began to thrust in and out of you, setting a steady pace. You felt his cock going in and out of you, each time more wet than the last as he coated himself in your arousal, the sounds of slapping skin echoing. 
Your eyes rolled back in pleasure as he continued until all you could feel was Nanami. 
All you could think of was Nanami.. 
Tumblr media
“Nanami? Did you hear that?” you asked as the three of you combed through the halls of the warehouse. Gojo led further up front, having requested, no more like commanded, to take the lead. 
Nanami paused, cocking his head to the side, his long blonde hair falling like a curtain in the same direction. 
“I didn’t hear anything, but it’s safe to assume the curse knows we’re here now. It’s best that we all stick together,” he said somewhat pointedly at Gojo.
The corporate office was truly a sad sight, where it was once a place no doubt bustling with business, the lights no longer worked and the few bulbs that remained in use flickered, threatening to go out at any moment. The three of you were on the first floor, having walked through the lobby and several conference rooms, there was no sign of the curse.
Except, you had heard rustling, and you felt the hair at the back of your neck stand up as though you were being watched. 
“Let’s move on to the second floor,” Nanami said before calling out,”Gojo let’s move on.” 
Gojo was crouched down on the floor dipping his finger in a small puddle of water. 
No, not water, upon further inspection it looked like.. 
“Blood. Cursed spirit blood by the looks of it,” he said as the purple liquid dipped down his finger. 
“So it’s been wounded recently? From what?” You asked. 
“Maybe a victim tried to fight back and managed to puncture it somehow. Perhaps there’s still a survivor or it’s taken hostages,” Nanami said, thinking through the logic, “either way it’s vulnerable which means-“
“It’s a whole lot more dangerous,” Gojo finished. He locked eyes with you again, and the look in them made you gulp. “I’ll go on ahead and search. Nanami, you stay with her.” 
Not this again, it seemed as if he was determined to go at the mission alone, and no doubt it was because of you. 
“We’ve been through this. Due to the curse’s ability it is more advantageous for us to remain as a group,” Nanami said. 
“So take her back to the school. We all know I can handle it on my own. Then we don’t have to worry about it changing into one of the two of you,” Gojo said. 
“Satoru, I'm staying here,” you said with finality. 
That did nothing to dissuade him. 
“This isn’t a sightseeing trip or low level mission. You could die!” He shouted. 
His words were like cold water. You knew the skill difference between the two of you, but he had never made you feel inferior before.
“I knew the risks when I came on. We all know the risks of being a sorcerer,” you said, your lip shook a little. 
Regret formed in his crystal eyes and he opened his mouth to speak again but whatever he was trying to say was drowned out by a shriek. 
Your shriek, it took a second for you to register the sound and the fact that it wasn’t coming from your mouth. 
It was the curse. 
The three of you turned and down the hall stood an exact replica of you, a perfect imposter.
Gojo cursed, and you knew this is what he had been afraid of. 
Tumblr media
Nanami planted a kiss on your bare shoulder as you snuggled back against him in bed. The two of you were still naked from your love making and had taken to cuddling afterwards. 
“Your skin is so soft,” he said, as his lips took to the  curve of your neck up to the back of your ear, now making you laugh. 
“I think part of the credit for that goes to you, you spoil me with all these fancy creams and lotions Kento,” you said. 
It was true. Nanami was loaded, filthyfully so, but he was so humble about it one wouldn’t know it. It’s not that he didn’t enjoy luxury he did, but his form of luxury wasn’t branded items to show off to others, it was silent wealth, expensive items he enjoyed for their quality and longevity such as his watches or the rare edition books he was fond of collecting. Most of all, he loved to spend his wealth on you. Anything you even showed interest in was yours, the bathroom was stocked with luxury brands for you to use and he had gifted you more lingerie sets and clothing than you knew what to do with. 
“Spoiling you gives me something to live for,” he said, nuzzling his face into your hair and breathing in the scent, “ask me for anything and it’s yours.” 
You turned to face him, his eyes were so kind as they always were. That was something you had always enjoyed about Nanami, his eyes were kind towards all, but of course there had always been a certain fondness in them that was reserved for you. It had taken you embarrassingly long to notice that. 
“I want you to not work yourself to death. You’re always saying I do that but you’re worse than me. You’re always going away on missions,” you said cupping his cheek with your hand. 
“I can’t do that, dear. You and I both know the responsibilities of a grade one sorcerer,” he said. 
Yes, you both did. 
Perhaps it would have been a responsibility the two of you shared if it hadn’t been for you no longer continuing to practice your techniques and skills. Perhaps if you had only continued you could accompany him on these missions, instead you had opted to remain at the school teaching in class instruction only.
Ever since that day, that mission so long ago.. 
“Hey, I didn’t mean anything by it,” he said softly, he turned his head to kiss your palm. You dropped your hand, returning it at your side. You didn’t look at him. 
Yes he didn’t mean anything by it, but this was a source of contention between the two of you. It was because of your guilt of not being able to accompany him on missions, your fear of losing him, and most of all the deep rooted shame you had in yourself for quitting. 
Yes you could still practice now, get stronger and better, but was it worth it? 
You had been out of the field for so long and you enjoyed the life you had now with Nanami. It was a life of comfort, stability, but still you wondered if there was more you could be doing. So now every time Nanami left, you worry about losing him. He did have a good work life balance but he was a man of conviction and principles who took his responsibilities so seriously that he wouldn’t hesitate to lose his life in an instance if it was for a higher calling, the thought scared you. 
“You said ask you for anything I want, and that’s what I want,” you said in a small voice. 
He chuckled slightly. 
“No fair, sweetheart. You know I can’t deny you anything,” he said. 
You moved closer, so your face was a mere few inches from his. 
“So don’t, stay with me,” you whispered before kissing him. 
He moaned into your kiss, and you could tell you were threatening all of his resolve. 
“Fine, love. You get your wish. I cut back on the number of missions I take,” he said. 
“But?” You pressed, waiting for the other shoe to drop. 
“But?” He repeated.
“Do I have to do something in return?” you clarified. 
He laughed.
“At a later date I’ll ask you for something in return. For now, let me enjoy being this close to you.” 
Tumblr media
The shriek still echoing in your ears, you didn’t have time to process anything as the curse disappeared from in front of you and a black sinking hole appeared underneath your feet. 
Your own hands, duplicate imposter hands, grabbed at your feet and dragged you through the sinkhole. You heard Gojo call your name but it sounded so very distant. 
When you got your bearings straight, you looked around and saw you were in a basement of sorts. The three of you hadn’t even thought to start with the basement! In fact the three of you hadn’t even thought there was a basement as most modern corporate offices no longer had any. It was a minor error, but a critical one all the same. 
“Don’t try to run, it won’t help your friends,” the curse said in your voice. 
It still looked like you, identical down to your shoes. 
“I don’t have to run. They’ll find the basement soon enough,” you said. 
You didn’t move as the curse dragged you by the arm and took you further back into the basement. To your surprise, there was an old automobile there. The curse took you around it, sat you down facing forward. It was then that you noticed some thick rope and a wad of duct tape there. 
“Seems like you’ve thought everything through,” you said. 
Now would be a good time to use your abilities. 
But should you? 
Perhaps the curse only copied what it could see. If you used your abilities would more danger fall upon you? Physical combat would be better, much safer.
The curse tied you up on the car leg while you debated this. You struggled against it and spat in your own face as it held up the duct tape. 
That caused the curse to strike you in the face, and then put the duct tape on your mouth. Then it left you there. 
Did it mean to steal your identity? Gojo and Nanami were smarter than that, they’d expect it. But it was clear the curse was operating on higher levels of intelligence than anticipated, it was scheming even. 
“Stay here,” it spat at you as though you had any other option. 
The curse then went back to the front of the basement. 
You heard racing footsteps, Gojo’s footsteps. 
“I got away but the curse it’s still out there!” You heard your voice shrillish, and authentic. 
“Did you see where it went? Are you hurt?” Gojo asked. 
No, something was wrong.. how could he not tell it wasn’t you? 
Perhaps he was toying with the curse, letting it put its guard down. 
You turned your neck and could see ever so slightly Gojo and yourself standing several feet away. The height difference between the two of you was more jarring from this perspective. 
“I didn’t see where it went. I’m okay but it was so scary,” the curse said, still imitating you. 
Gojo bent down pressing his forehead against yours.
“It’s okay. I’m here now,” he said.
To your horror the way he said it, in the soft tone reserved just for you, served as evidence that he had been duped.
But how?
Couldn't he sense it with his six eyes? What was going on? 
Even more horrific he leaned forward and so did the curse as if to kiss their lips mere inches apart…. 
Suddenly, Nanami ran into the room and without hesitation used his sword to slice the curse in two, purple blood flying everywhere. 
That’s when you began to cough up something sweet in your throat. 
You heard the two young men arguing. 
The last thing you heard before passing out was Gojo screaming your name… 
You woke up at Jujutsu High a few days later, in the medical wing of campus. 
“Hey, there’s our girl,” Shoko said, smiling at you. She was sitting at your bedside.
“Where’s Gojo?” you asked. 
She ignored your question and touched your temple, causing you to relax instantly.
“Do you feel okay? I had to work long on you. I also wanted to keep a close watch on you it was a very interesting case study actually-“ she stopped, knowing her comments would only make you more curious. 
“Shoko. Where’s Gojo?” You pressed. 
She seemed hesitant as if she wasn’t sure how much she was at liberty to say.
“He came to see you several times. I can let him know you’re up. He should be here soon.” 
She then left to do so, whipping out her cellphone. 
It was odd. 
The Gojo you knew would be here, at your bedside. 
But day turned into night and he still didn’t see you. 
For whatever reason you weren’t allowed out of the medical wing on Yaga’s orders apparently. 
Three days past, and he still didn’t see you. 
It was only on the fourth day when you woke up from one of the Shoko induced slumbers via sedation that you saw him standing there in front of your bed.
He looked like he had lost weight even though it had only been a few days. His shades fully covered his eyes. 
“Why didn’t you come to see me? What happened? Was the mission successful?” Your mouth spilled out several questions without even thinking. 
He was silent for a while before answering.
“The mission was successful. Nanami killed the curse easily. It evidently was on the brink of death already.”
“But?” 
That’s when he explained. Truly explained.
The curse was unique in nature in that it had to suck the life force out of another organic being in order to survive. That’s why it had taken on the appearance of the missing children and lured family and friends. It fed off the feel good energy that the family and friends emitted upon thinking they found their loved one. Except here was the twist, the children died because their loved ones believed the curse was them. It was that transfer of energy that allowed the curse to add to its lifespan and in short take the energy from the person it was imitating. It was a leech in nature. 
That’s why when the curse had been killed you had begun to choke as well because it had linked its life force to your own.
“But it had to have tricked you. Surely there’s something else, another ability it has to dull the senses and that’s why you thought it was me,” you said. 
Because this truth was too difficult to accept. Satoru, your Satoru would know you anywhere wouldn’t he?
“That’s just the thing. I’ve racked my mind around it. There’s no ability, no reason why I of all people could have fallen for something so simple,” he turned away from you now, his back facing towards you, “the simple truth is I didn’t see it because I wasn’t looking.” 
He then walked out of the room, despite you calling him to come back. 
You chased after him but he was gone, vanished into the air.
In the subsequent days he was gone and when you asked Yaga, all he said was that Gojo had taken a leave from the school for personal reasons. 
Days turned into weeks.
Weeks turned into months. 
Months into years.
It was six whole years before you saw him again. 
By that point you were in your early teaching career and he evidently had gone to the Kyoto school to finish his studies and become a great grade one sorcerer. 
For a while you had dreams of him abandoning you, dreams of that day where everything changed…

my gjhm hcs/prompts/scenario/drabbles 5️⃣🎶💘
more personal hcs i have! also in continuation/addition to my utahime hcs post 👍 this is just a mix of gjhm, utahime and some sprinkle of utashoko, sugushoko hcs if you stare hard enough..
i stand by the idea that these two started out as hot and cold frenemies during their time as students. so not exactly fluffy/shippy material here but i digress, it's fun to speculate what gjhm were like as annoying students getting on everyone's nerves.. i think those two would have been adorable, funny, and annoying 😂
also, i wrote this in mind that gojo is the one that fell first and fell hard for utahime. so almost everything here is just a perspective of someone crushing on their senpai LMAO. in my head, utahime doesn't start noticing gojo until they're both in their twenties. i feel those two would be a slow burn like a very angsty slow burn 🫠🫠🫠
note: i had to research more of the tokyo tech school, calculate the years, ages to try and be accurate as possible to the canon timeline. this long list starts at around 2005/2006 pre-HI arc. if gege doesn't state something explicitly, i feel it's free real estate to interpret and develop headcanons 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️
young gojo and utahime formally met around late spring to early summer of 2005 and immediately had a rocky start. they met through shoko one afternoon after class. however, gojo has already known about utahime prior to this. while not paying attention to yaga's lecture. he noticed the senior singing to herself as she tended the campus community garden with the other upperclassmens/sorcerers. her soothing voice is what he notices first
gojo was awe struck by utahime at first glance and it's been bad for him since then. his senior who is 2-almost 3 years older, short, calm and too easy of a target to pick on is very much adorable when angy
bc of the nature of shoko and utahime's CT, they're often at the main campus ground together. they'll hang out in the infirmary or chilling somewhere nearby. post missions, the boys tend to visit the infirmary just to annoy them and get treatments/checkups even if they don't have a visible scratch
the gang made it a tradition to have dinner every sunday, every week as possible. it started with utashoko going to a potluck/bbq restaurant frequently until the boys learned about it and crashed it >_>. since then, they have dinner at campus where they all cook together. everyone has to pitch in. utahime likes to incorporate in-season crops to the cooking. gojo doesn't usually eat veggies but somehow can have seconds of songstress's hotpot
when on missions, utahime keeps a journal and a camera to document memories. gojo makes fun of her for it, but ends up enjoying it and helping her with the camera work, finding spots to take pics. he sometimes helps take pics too bc of his tall stature
the tokyo tech high campus is LOUD when gjhm are bickering. and they're always bickering! it doesn't matter who started it (it's gojo always), so those two end up getting scolded by yaga often
on days when utahime is paired with another sorcerer for support, the campus is quiet and gojo is sad :(. when he gets sent to missions, he doesn't get the same support. he's aware he's a special grade and don't need it but it's so boring to do it alone!
when utahime comes back from missions, she always brings back treats and souvenirs for everyone. yes, that includes her annoying junior who in return starts doing the same thing at his missions. she ends up bringing him sweets, like tons of sweets she thinks he'll like (he does). gojo started doing the same gesture but he tends to lie that he didn't bring anything for utahime--which she'll say she doesn't care. but by the time she returns to her room, she'll find a gift bag and a note placed on her desk from the same junior who likes to be dramatic about everything
since utahime is the top student at their campus and aces every exam they have. it's become a thing for her to lead their study sessions. she does her best to tutor and simplify things for them. gojo tends to be a distraction at first but tends to help her out on these sessions. they end up pass out next to each other with his uniform jacket placed on her as a blanket. the others often wake up early before those two and notes how peaceful they are
sugushoko definitely picks up on gojo's crush on utahime before gojo is even aware himself. they been quiet about it the whole time, just watching the disaster unfold. shoko brings up the idea of mentioning it to one of them at one point but geto wants to see how much longer until one of them realizes it or something funny happens
geto one day asks gojo who's his type. gojo's answer makes it so obvious he's describing utahime but he doesn't even know. geto teases him that he just described their senior. gojo just gives him an annoyed look and changes the subject
shoko just drops the information about gojo's crush to utahime out of the blue and utahime just gives her a disgusted look. "gojo just likes to be a brat." utahime goes into a long tangent about gojo. shoko notes the songstress definitely does not look at gojo like that except as an annoying junior and laughs to herself about it. poor gojo 🤭
utahime gets asked out a lot by upperclassmen and non-sorcerers. it definitely doesn't bother gojo! nope, not at all! but he makes it a goal to disturb whoever he sees talking to his senior when utahime should be studying or tutoring. their courtship is distracting the flow of education! utahime ends up apologizing for her junior's bratty actions
december 2005: gojo turns 16 and the new years are near. the trio decides to celebrate over break. everyone except utahime are present during this month. due to the songstress graduating in a few months, she's been occupied in missions back to back. it doesn't bother gojo that she's not present during his bday or the gang's winter break or for new years celebration. but he is annoyed he doesn't even get a simple text or email from her! what kind of senior is she not to acknowledge her junior's bday or greet a simple new years? he definitely does not miss her or wait for her message on his phone 💢🙄
what he doesn't expect is to find himself walking to campus in the crisp january weather after new years. he sees utahime sitting on one the benches. she stands up after noticing him and waves at him. gojo quickens his steps towards her, already planned out what snarky comment to say. what he doesn't expect is for her to suddenly reach out a big giftbag to him. gojo pauses and looks at her. "happy belated birthday and a happy new year, gojo"
utahime's gifts to him were handful of sweets, varying from different prefectures. there are mochi, chocolate, pastries, etc. one that stood out to him was a stuffed white cat keychain wearing some dark glasses. she states she saw it and thought it resembled him. she got matching ones for sugushoko as well and can't wait to give it give to them. gojo doesn't have a joke or anything in return to say and thanked her for the gifts. he doesn't end up using the keychain but places it in his desk inside his campus room. displaying it neatly next to his lamp and a picture of their friend group
gjhm rarely fights. sure, they get into arguments, bickering contests, loud banter--but fights are very rare. when they do fight, it's usually something that started from stubbornness, pettiness, even miscommunication. but they're both willing to apologize soon right after the heat of the moment ends. they don't like giving each other the cold shoulder
since gjhm are pretty young and are still inexperienced, i think them apologizing won't be so direct. they're both equally stubborn when it comes to each other and stumble with getting their thoughts across but they'll make it up halfway towards other means (likes small gifts, tea, nonchalant convos about it, etc)

You read every gojohime fic???? That's amazing!!! What are your favourites?
hello anonie! i guess i can say i’ve read at least a good 80% of all the fics, at least. probably. most likely because the fic tag at the start of the year was tiny and now the community’s grown so much there’s almost 600 of them. that’s insane to me. like hello?
i have a lotta fics that come to mind, that i should honestly make a master post on because i love them all. so here are a few many that came to mind immediately as i typed this up.
gojohime fic recommendations!

multichapter
limitations by ohmytheon 
“Parenthood chooses you," her mother used to tell her, but Utahime never understood that saying more than the moment she realized she was pregnant with Gojo Satoru's child. They were never meant to be something serious - never meant to be more than they were - and yet they both suddenly find themselves in a world that doesn't care about their desires - and that brings them closer in a way that no one else can understand. It won't be easy and it won't be kind to either of them, but it appears as if the universe has other plans for them
no one is what they were before by ohmytheon 
The world broke when Gojo Satoru turned on jujutsu society. It's not the hopeful place it was before, but Utahime has never been one to give up. Until she's placed in a dangerous position directly in his path, and she finds herself trapped in a web that doesn't seem intent on ever letting her go.
and touch me like you never by ohmytheon 
In public, Gojo is a special grade bastard, especially to Utahime, and has been all their lives. He knows exactly what insults to throw and what buttons to push to drive her up a wall. In private, however, he's got quite a few other things to tell and show her, which only makes things more confusing. It would be easier if she could avoid him entirely, but for some reason, he won't let her go entirely.
gravity by aerfei
This is Utahime, fierce and indomitable, and this is Satoru, who despite holding the world’s regard, still craves something that Utahime has had all her life. Coming together is sometimes an act of desperation, and sometimes a deliberate choice. Or: An Iori Utahime character study, through the lens of her relationship with Gojo Satoru, starting from the beginning and ending at the Goodwill Event arc. Manga spoilers and (at least 95%) canon-compliant through (at least) chapter 135.
count every single leaf in autumn by florieneofthesea
“I told my family we’re dating.” Utahime’s hand hovers over the door. “What?!” (or: Gojo tells his family that he's dating Utahime to get them off his back, so of course they invite her to the dreaded family dinner™)
favourite colour by otherthingsonhold
At 28, Satoru Gojo's responsibilities only start to multiply. With his clan looking to him to lead the family, and the balance of the universe in his hands, Gojo isn't thinking of much else. But when his mother brings something to his attention, the only thing Gojo can do is follow through. But how is Utahime Iori part of all of this?
gojo catoru by ashittywriter
Utahime is tasked to catsit a suspiciously large Persian dollface cat with pristine white hair, the most boop-able nose, and to top it off the cutest cerulean eyes. Too bad the cat also happens to be her idiotic colleague Gojo Satoru.
at the tail-end of spring by florieneofthesea
Utahime doesn't expect to remember her ex's number off by heart but it comes in handy when she's a little less than sober outside a club in a city she's not familiar with and her battery on three percent. She just wishes things turned out differently for them. (Or, post-break up exploration where outer forces refuse to let them have their happy ending.)
a second chance by onewordmore
In another world, it wasn't Geto who sneered down at humanity, regarding them to be worthless monkeys that deserved to die. In another world, it wasn't Geto who openly defied the Jujutsu Council and brought down terror and fear to all. In another world, it wasn't just Amanai Riko who died that day, amidst the cheers and delighted cries of the insane. And Utahime was going to learn, first hand, the consequences of her own death.
from you to me by onewordmore
A drabble series regarding Gojo and Utahime. From fluff to smut to angst to love. This is going to have it all.
oneshots
oceansize by aerfei
The marriage is arranged by their families, small clans both, with all their hopes and traditions laid gently upon the shoulders of their only heirs -- and yet, this distance is impassable.
under the cover of darkness by ohmytheon
It takes a little alcohol, early morning hours, and a game of truth or dare for Gojo and Utahime to admit some difficult truths to each other.
risk/reward by ohmytheon 
No punishment had ever been more effective in making Gojo do his actual job than receiving praise from his secretary - or more grueling than when Utahime withheld it.
like a good roommate by ohmytheon
Utahime has a problem: her bed wasn't delivered to the new apartment. Her ridiculous roommate, Gojo, has a solution - but he's kind of panicking on the inside.
aware of us by halspur 
“We did alright, didn’t we?” Gojo put his phone down after taking several dozen photos of Tsumiki walking across the stage, his eyes soft. “I mean, we were just kids, too.”
love song by halspur
“Because you’re weak.” Gojo said, muffled into the thin skin of her throat. “I can’t leave you alone.”
tear you apart by halspur
“I don’t want to be mean to you,” Utahime’s cheek was pressed into his spine, her voice muffled. “I like you.”
cuddles are for clean boyfriends by just_trying_my_best_everyday
Utahime finds Gojo Satoru sitting right behind the door, blindfold hanging on his neck, completely soaked in blood and petting her cat with both hands. And he stinks.
honey by florieneofthesea
Gojo Satoru experiences love a decade before he fully realises it.
roots by florieneofthesea 
At the start of winter, Utahime starts to cough up blood. She thinks maybe its just the lingering damage from her last mission, but the coughing persists and it starts to scratch her throat, and itch at her lungs and when she finally makes the trip to Tokyo to ask Shoko for her help, she doesn't even get the first word out. Shoko welcomes her at the entrance to Tokyo Metropolitan Technical School and Utahime hacks up a single, pale blue petal, smattered with blood. She stares down at the flora on the ground and wonders if she's been cursed. Utahime looks up, and Shoko's eyes are wide.
to have and to hold by ashittywriter
“M’sorry," Gojo said his voice slurring at the end. "But please go away, I have a girlfriend." Utahime blinked in confusion. What the fuck? 
souvenir by PrettyKittyLuvsU
“Aha!” Gojo tugged something out of his pocket, his long fingers curled around it as he held his hand behind his back. His other hand waved before him, a cheeky grin splitting his lips. “Ora, ora! Hold out your hand.” Utahime stared flatly. “Ora, ora!” Gojo persisted, continuing to wave his hand as he grinned. “Hold out your hand already!” Utahime scowled at the hand swaying infront of her face. She had half a mind to slap the man instead, but her students were closely watching. Even Gojo’s students, the second years mainly—for Sukuna’s vessel was apologizing profusely as the brown haired girl continued kicking him while the quiet one made no effort to stop her— looked in fascination at whatever ridiculous souvenir Gojo wanted to hand her. Utahime slowly lifted her arm, already planning on throwing the thing back in Gojo’s annoying face. Gojo gets Utahime a very special kind of souvenir. Set during the start of the Goodwill arc.

Headcanons for the type of ppl who would attract or be of interest to Satoru Gojo and Kento Nanami???? WHATS THEIR (personality) TYPE
ooh, yes. there’s so much to love about these two & i like analyzing them from a personality standpoint
warnings: none really, i tried not to spoil too much since the anime is just getting going
Gojo
Tumblr media
I see him as someone who’d be attracted to those who are self-assured
That doestn’t mean you need to be brash, or outgoing, not that you can’t be those things, but we do see that he’s often very attuned & drawn to others who are a little quieter in their mannerisms in the manga: Getō, Megumi, Nanami. However, he also really likes being around louder characters like Yuji. So, I think as long as you give off an air of confidence and reliance, he’s gonna respect that
He’s also gonna look for that in a partner - gotta have some kinda foundation for him to notice & I think having an inner spark, or even a separate passion, is a great start
With that being said, I could see him having a difficult time being with someone who is not a jujutsu sorcerer
Namely because his own life is constantly on the line & he’s often away or busy with his own work
Chances are, curses are gonna know that you’re a weak spot & we’ve seen how manipulative and downright dirty some of them can get to achieve their goals
He’s likely not looking for a partner that he has to keep an eye on all the time
In fact, I can see that getting old, fast
Plus, he’s canonically stated that he doesn’t like those who are weak
So, sorry if you’re in the normie crowd
With a sorcerer, obviously you’re gonna be lesser than him, talent wise, but I think he’d also like to see growth and effort from you
I don’t see him being attracted to someone who settles
So even if you’re doing a sparing match and he’s completely got you on the back foot, don’t stop getting back up
I can totally see that piquing his interest because it shows that inner spark & if he’s gonna take down the higherup’s he needs people with that forward thinking determination
We’ve also seen that he likes people that push back: see - Getō
So, I don’t think he’d be bothered if the two of you have different opinions
However, he’s gonna want you to be able to hold your own in a debate
Speak your mind
Don’t just go along to get along
I do think he likes people that can keep him on his toes
He wouldn’t mind if you were someone who’s spontaneous
Just one day you’re like: Hey! We’re gonna do this! Come on! & refuse to take no for an answer
I think that’s a good way to keep his interest & keep things fresh
He likes the non-traditional things: so don’t think dinner dates, he’s fucking gonna take you along on this wild mission, or hey, found out there’s this cursed carnival, let’s GO
If he likes for you to be cuff of the moment, then you need to be able to put up with his own bursts of spontaneity, too - you have to at least tolerate his antics
However, don’t be clingy - we haven’t seen him dealing much with others like that & he’s been around independent people for most of his life
You need to be confident enough to be able do your own thing
He’s a busy guy: he can’t be on the phone with you all the time
But, I think he would like to be thought of
Let him know that there’s a spot for him in your life
By that I mean, even though you’re busy and have your own missions, you still might see something and pick it up for him
People expect soooo much from him & he’s got the weight of the world on his shoulders
So for you to just say: Oh, found this & know you like it! Here you go!
Be it candy, flowers, whatever - I think he’ll be so fucking touched by that
I can see him returning that favor to you - he likes to bring souvenirs back to those he cares about
It’s nice to know that you’re loved, even if your schedules don’t allow you much time together
Nanami
Tumblr media
I think what’s going to catch his eye is someone who encapsulates a mature and rational state of mind
Practicality and effort are gonna speak volumes, especially in the beginning
We’ve seen how he reacts to those who are over the top (cough: Gojo) and it’s not in a very positive way
Now, if you’re someone who is on the exuberant side, don’t give up hope!
Similiarly to Gojo, I think he can learn to accept and respect those outbursts, we’ve seen this from him, especially with Yuji or his partner Haibara
He has been shown to like bright and energetic people, but it’ll take a little more time to crack into his trust
If you’re more excitable you might face a more uphill battle, but if you want him, and honestly who wouldn’t, you just need to show him that you can be relied upon
Once you’ve cleared that, I can even see him liking that his partner has a different world view and a little bit more pep in their step
After all, I think he places a very high value on independence
He’s not gonna be the partner who immediately wants to move in with you, no matter how long, or how much he cares for you
No, he strikes me as the sort of guy who likes to know that he can lean on you & can go to you when he needs to, but he’s likely going to be very protective of his own space, and yours as well
Unlike Gojo, I do see Nanami being interested in a civilian and not just a sorcerer
He’s so big on comfort and just being able to kick back, he mentions that often when he’s discussing his future retirement and if you’re a laid back person, and not someone fully entrenched in the sorcerer world, I can totally see him looking twice at that
I think he’d like the normaliacy
After all, he’s one of the few sorcerers who have been in the “real world,” even though he was bored with his office job, I think there are still parts of that life that he values - hence why he dresses like a business boy
I feel like he’d like someone who can talk about low key things
It might seem like a simple conversation but I think he’d love chatting about the freaking news, or that new shop that just opened
OMG
Wait, WAIT
You immediately pass GO & collect the full $200 if you’re a baker & you snag his attentions
Like, dropping everything and haunting your bakery every free moment he has until you notice him
Yo. He is a foodie
If you’re a chill person who likes to restaurant hop, damn, you’re ticking boxes bb
OK. SORRY. Had to get that off my chest. BACK AT IT
He’s a cynical, realist - so I think he’d like to see someone who is encouraging and optimistic
If you’re easy going and can see the glass half-full, it’s likely a win-win for Nanami
His schedule varies, even when he tries to get off at 6 on the dot
So if he has to bail on plans, or things get moved, you need to be someone who’s understanding & can roll with the punches
But he’d also want someone who can set a routine and who plans things out
He’s big on rules and, let’s face it, he’s surrounded by incompetence
If you’re reliable and predictable, I feel that he’d really like that combination
It means he can let his guard down around you & for a jujutsu sorcerer that is HUGE
Again, don’t expect normal dates: I don’t see him being big on PDA, or the: let’s get a table for two with the candles bs
I’d see him really like making a meal with you, even if he’s tired
Restaurant dates would be fine, but I could see it being a more relaxed kinda thing: like two people who are hashing out the days gossip, not these long, drawn out, lovey topics
You’d likely look more like friends, than lovers
He is focused on money
So while he may not take you to cheap places, he strikes me as a bit of a penny pincher
Don’t expect hella fine dining every night of the week - as long as it’s got interesting food, he’s not gonna care much about the rest
He strikes me as an acts of service kinda guy
So anything you can do to help, be it big or small, I think he’ll appreciate you thinking of him
He’s a busy guy and it’s nice to have even the tiny things taken off of his list
Besides, the less he has to do, the more time you get to spend with each other
