you know i adore you (3)

TEEN!gojo x FEM!reader (soulmate AU)

TW⚠️: gojo's being a little manipulative, angst, mentions of death and blood, mostly fluff tho

1: what you see, i see

2: where you go, i go

A/N: gojo is so 1989 coded

Her phone had buzzed for the tenth time during her student council meeting, and for the tenth time, she ignored it. She didn't have to look at the caller ID to know who it was.

Who knew Gojo Satoru would be so clingy? And here she thought she would be the one hanging on his coat tails. Not that they were dating because they weren't. They were friends with emphasis on friends - she had decided that after the high of finally seeing each other face to face.

The morning after was very clarifying for her. She tried to remember her dream the night, only to realize that Satoru had not slept the entire night - he had been watching her sleep the entire night. It was especially clarifying when her mom knocked on her door, and she processed that not only did she have a strange boy in her room, but that he was also soaked in blood. A hectic morning of her hiding her soulmate in the bathroom. It didn't help that he was complaining the entire time - it was a miracle her mother didn't hear him.

Fact of the matter is it would be irresponsible for her to start seeing him romantically without actually getting to know him first and she was a responsible person. So responsible that for the time being, she had to put student council duties first over her friendship with him, especially with the festival coming up.

She would call him after the meeting was over, "Now, do we have everything prepared for the festival tomorrow?"

Everyone nodded as they checked classrooms, and fixed decoration, and they put up the banner outside of the school that would be welcoming everyone in. After this task was done, she would leave.

From atop a ladder, she tied the elastic ribbons into a bow and smoothed the banner over with her hand, "Everything alright on that side?"

Her peer smiled at her from the other ladder directly on the other side of the banner, "Yeah!"

She climbed down the ladder and looked at their handiwork. It was perfect. All that was left was to go get her things.

One of her classmates giggled besides her, "Your boyfriend's here again."

"Who's boyfriend?" She asked.

The girl pointed at the entrance of the school, "Yours." She smiled cheerfully at him, "Hi, Gojo!"

And there he was, walking over to them - pouting.

This was her fault she should've known he would show up if didn't at least answer one of his calls or texts.

"We've been over this." She said, "He is not my boyfriend."

"Does he know that?" The girl said.

Another classmate chimed in, "Why not? he's super cute."

She hoped Satoru hadn't heard that. His ego was big enough as it was.

A pair of strong arms wrapped around her waist as he nuzzled his head in her neck, he said, "Yeah, I am super cute. Why not?"

Of course, he heard them. He looked at her expectantly over his glasses. He really was adorable when he wanted to be, enough that all of her classmates (boys and girls alike) practically swoon for him when he does anything.

She ignored him, "Meetings over. Everyone, go home."

Satoru huffed in annoyance but didn't let go of her, "Why don't you answer your phone?" He tilted his head so she could see more of his vibrant blue eyes despite his glasses, "A text would've been enough."

She fought the urge to run her hands through his hair, "I told you I had a student council meeting today." She twisted in his arms to face him, "and I told you that I wasn't going to be able to call or text until after."

He buried his face in her neck again and groaned, "Yeah, yeah, yeah, you did."

This was a little more than friendly, she knew that, but she also learned at the beginning of their friendship that he also didn't know what personal space was. Besides, she would stop him before he got too far, but she would admit, she liked it when he daringly pressed his lips on her neck to test just how far he can push the boundaries she had set for them. But today, she would enforce them.

She tugged his head back from her neck, "I have to go get my school bag, Satoru."

She stilled as he leaned in and kissed her in the corner of her mouth. Another thing he did to see how far he could go.

She pursed her lips, "That's more than friendly."

He raised an eyebrow, "You mind today?" And let out a dramatic sigh, "it's cause people are watching, isn't it?" He shifted all of his weight on her, "I'm a dirty little secret!"

She finally hugged him back. Not to actually hug him but keep them from toppling over.

She heard footsteps and giggles as her classmates walked past her and Satoru, "Yeah, he's totally not your boyfriend."

She saw a glimpse of Satoru's cheeky smile before he stuck his lower lip out and rubbed his cheek against hers.

And like clockwork, "Aw~"

She glared at her peers, "Do not encourage his behaviour."

They all snickered as they left.

She rolled her eyes at them and grabbed Satoru's cheeks with one hand forcing his lips to pucker as they looked at each other, "Stop." She pushed him off of her and finally, went to go get her belongings.

She sighed when Satoru slipped his hand in hers. If she pulled away he would whine for the rest of the day, so she let their fingers intertwine.

His eyes wandered away from her from time to time. She closed her eyes for a second. Little spectres were staring at them, peeking their heads from their hiding spots, and whenever, Satoru directed his gaze at them they'd duck back into their hiding spots in fear.

Oh.

She opened her eyes and quickened her steps. Her soulmate kept up with her new pace with ease. She opened the door and quickly picked up her school bag, but Satoru took it from her hand before she could sling it around her shoulder and swung it over his instead.

"Those curses shouldn't scare you. You know, they're too scared to come out and hurt anyone," he said, "They're too weak."

She grabbed her phone from the table, "You know I can't see them the way you can."

He pressed a kiss on her temple, "I can handle them, no problem."

She rested her head on his arm. He was right if any curse dared to rear out their ugly heads against them he would excorcise it easily. She was safe. They were safe.

She flipped her phone open as they walked out of the school.

47 MISSED CALLS from Gojo Satoru

He was not serious.

83 TEXT MESSAGES from Gojo Satoru

Oh God.

2 TEXT MESSAGES from Geto Suguru

Geto.S: He's being insufferable

Geto.S: Answer so he'll stop whining to me and Shoko

She shoved her phone in his face, "For real?!"

"You weren't answering!"

She shook her head as she went through the text messages.

Gojo.S: Wanna go check out the new boba place <3

Gojo.S: Whatcha ya doing? :3

Gojo.S: Oh right student council

Gojo.S: How long is it gonna to take?

Gojo.S: it's been 30 minutes :(

Gojo.S: Pls answer the phone </3

She skimmed the rest of texts until she got near the end.

Gojo.S: The decorations look great!! :b

Gojo.S: r ya seriously going to check every classroom?

Gojo.S: For real?????

Gojo.S: ______ <3

Gojo.S: Suguru punched me :(

Gojo.S: kiss it better pls

Gojo.S: How much longer?????

Gojo.S: A ladder for what???

Gojo.S: :'(((((((((

Gojo.S: <////////////3

Gojo.S: I'm heading over there

She flipped her phone close, "You are such a stalker, Satoru."

He gasped offendedly, "I am not."

"Yes, you are."

"Am not!"

"Really?" She said, "What about the time you were literally watching me sleep for hours?"

"I wasn't myself that day." He quickly added, "and you were sad all day! What kind of soulmate would I be if I didn't let you know I was okay?"

"How'd you know where I live?" She retorted.

"It's a cute little bakery!" He smiled, "how is anyone supposed to miss that."

"Uh huh," she hummed, "suuureee~"

She was right, Satoru had somewhat stalked her that day and with how empowered he felt - he tracked down the very little cursed energy she did have with his six eyes.

"You stalk me too!" He pushed back.

"Hardly."

She was lying, but there was a difference between his stalking and her stalking. She only wanted to make sure he was safe. After what happened a few months ago, she couldn't help it and she only stalked him when he goes on missions not for everyday things like he does.

"Liar," Satoru said, "I can tell. I have really good eyes and senses."

She blushed, "It is not the same." Stupid six eyes, "You stalk me for no reason."

"It's not for 'no reason' - I miss you." He readjusted the straps of her school bag on his shoulder, "Besides, you don't have to worry about me like that anymore. No one can get the jump on me like that again."

She knew what he meant: I'm stronger now. Don't worry, I'm not dying anytime soon, and he was right. Nothing could touch him anymore unless he wanted it to, even her. Still, he didn't know what it felt like to have him gone from her soul. It wasn't a fading feeling of him slipping away - No, it was violent and soul wrenching - he was viscerally ripped from her. She was left cold and alone with her heart being the only one left beating. She was with him the whole time when he was desperately trying to learn and understand reverse curse technique to heal his bloody and dying body. All Satoru knew was that she cried.

Soft lips pressed against her cheek and then to the other. It was so sweet, so wonderful she hadn't realized she was crying.

"Is that why we aren't dating yet?" He continued to kiss her tears away, "you scared?"

She hadn't cared for him then and she fell apart. Imagine the damage it would do to her if she was in love with him? Her lip quivered at the thought. With a shaky breath, she buried herself in his chest in a hug, and nodded.

Satoru soothingly ran his long, slender fingers through her hair, "My girl's a bit of a little cry baby, ain't she?"

Her heart fluttered, my girl.

"I have every right to cry," she mumbled stubbornly in his chest.

He kissed the top of her head, "Yeah, you do." He tilted her chin up so she would look at him, "Boyfriends give more kisses you know."

She smiled as she wiped her tears, "No fair, I'm emotionally vulnerable right now."

Satoru's lips pressed ever so softly on hers. It was barely even a kiss, but she melted in his arms all the same. It would be so easy to fall into him and he would catch her every time. Yet, he pulled away and rested his forehead against hers.

She was right. He shouldn't take advantage.

He sighed... if time was what she needed then he could wait a little longer.

Part 4: i'm crazier for you

Gojo: y'all be scared to double text? Not me! Ding ding ding it's me again bitch!

Part 5: baby, you're the life of the party

Part 6: something's made your eyes go cold

Let me know if you wanna be tagged!

The jumpscares i get outside this app it is wild out there... People are legit debating “how evil Lottie is” like excuse you??? Have we been watching the same show? Lottie is the scapegoat. She tried to die multiple times over. She’s over there trying to meditate away her psychosis while traumatized teenagers assign her magical powers. They sent her to hunt in below freezing temperatures with only a knife because “she doesn’t need a gun the wilderness is on her side” she didn’t even say a word. She’s lying there with a possible kidney infection, maybe even a concussion, and she gave them consent, “don’t waste my body, live, don’t feel guilty, I give you absolution” and they decided nope we’re slaughtering a live one :) Then they pin it on her, every single bad thing they did they pin on her. They escape and they call her the crazy one and move on. It’s all on Lottie. And adult Lottie is struggling, she asked them to leave, she knows she’s bad for them and they’re bad for her, she’s in active psychosis and she needs help. Travis made her responsible for his suicide, triggering her psychosis back and putting yet another awful thing she didn’t ask for on her conscience. And she did the best she could, kept an eye on Nat knowing their history and knowing what Travis’ death would do to her. Then the others showed up, supposedly to find Nat, and then proceeded to trauma dump on her. She was terrified when she saw them, but stepped up, welcomed them, offered them hospitality and help. But how is she supposed to help with sleep-walking and stabbing and kidnapping? She is scared and taken right back to the wilderness because if they’re still murdering left and right then they never left. Just so we’re clear, I am not blaming anyone here, I love every single one of the yellowjackets with my entire heart. They are traumatized and fucked up and complex and layered and the reason I’m watching. But how can you watch this and decide “Lottie is evil”??? Between this and the people picking “team Nat” or “team Lottie”, are we watching the same show? If you think this show is about pitting women against each other, you haven’t been paying attention.

tbh i gotta take back what i said before. totk hasn't really done anything to make me care about this version of zel*nk

#bwark #don't get me wrong it's still a fine ship but i think this is just a case of me preferring their friendship #and also it's more of a criticism of this incarnation of link than a criticism of the game itself #he's just too. static. i don't like that he shows more emotion at cooking than at the actual tragedy of the plot #and i know that it's stated that he has anxiety from the pressure of the calamity but like i said he's still capable of showing emotion #but like at the wrong times. it's cute that he's happy about food but where's the shock that he was asleep for 100 years and everyone he #once loved is dead and he doesn't even have memories of them before seeking them out #or that his best friend had to suffer a millenia as a dragon for the sake of everyone #compare this to like. idk tp link's horror when ganondorf holds up midna's fused shadow and crushes it with his hand #and his relief at the end that not only is she back to her true form but is still the same mischevious midna he's known the whole game #or sksw link's pure anger at ghirahim for kidnapping zelda near the end #or ww link's visible guilt and heartbreak at having to leave his grandma behind and alone to go and save his sister #not trying to be mean because i still like him. he is still link after all. but idk he just falls a bit short for me #like his promise to mipha's father comes across as very shallow when he kept a blank face at her in both the memory and her spirit scene #the only character that benefits from him being flat is revali and that's because it fuels revali's dislike of him because of a #misunderstanding and lack of communication #totk spoilers #<- in the tags at least

sometimes I think about the last enw fight and how zenos asks if it was all worth it. I think cala told him she just wanted to go home

#endwalker spoilers #home is lots of places to her. mostly people #but also this is the only time she showed zenos any emotion except anger or fear #idk I just think about their interactions a lot #bc cala refused to try to empathize with him #even in sb when she had all that rage and saw similarities between them. that realization only made her angry and afraid for *herself*#bc how could she be like this person who did such awful things. so she was always guarded around him at best #and when he came back she just wanted him to leave her alone #i think at most she may have pitied him #but that was the extent of it #her last words to him were the only time she told him what she truly wanted #anyways. sometimes i'm sad that cala didn't try to understand him. the whole my mirror thing...she never got it.#but it's also so tasty to me

silly

#me for the 891st time: see it's cool because they just LIKE -#the way she doesn't really even try to talk him out of it (she knows better alskdfj)#she just makes her case and then when he insists on still going for it she's just like 'ok well call when you get into trouble #(and don't associate yourself with us aldsfkj)'#and he just grins and goes 'you got it' (which he'd never - sincerely - say to another 'supervisor' without causing them a major headache)#(not to mention that like 20 seconds before this she was standing in front of her boss holding in a giggle at the fact that they both knew #jane wasn't going to leave this alone and now here she is essentially letting him run rampant)#'she's just a girl with a crush' a big fat one and it's so funny to see because she's also the only one he even half listens to #she's the only one who can really reign him in but she's also the one who knows best that sometimes he just needs to be let loose #their dynamic is just so delightful to me a weird little overattentive nitpicker's dream maybe #tm

im itching to infodump about the songs in the syndisparklez playlist again bc cats post got me thinkin about the delicious little bit of “behind the scenes” story between capsize, tom and jordan i wrote in my head to talk too much by COIN and violet by bad suns that is exactly the whole bit about capsize being jordan’s scapegoat (loving her bc he was in denial about tom) and tom’s side of it being absolutely fucking pissed and seeing right through it all

#its a plot i admittedly dont talk about a lot but its very much there in chaos and balance #i still havent found the song that’s capsize’s pov but. surely one day #like removing that from the canon takes away one of the best conversation in that whole episode #capsize calling tom’s bluff and her just like violently shaking jordan like ‘OPEN YOUR FUCKING EYES YE WANKER’#deadass ‘holee fok m8 just go be with your stupid ass bf and leave me the FUCK alone’#mianite by a gay man #for ref- talk too much is jordan’s voice; violet is Tom’s #i can describe in vivid detail (aka the animatic in my head) how it’s the scenes of the whole affair with that its quite fun actually #the ‘BTS’ of it is the ‘offscreen conversations between jordan and sonja where she’s trying to slap some sense into him. interludes you coul #could call. it (stares in TH roleswap)

ive been thinking abt a helio/stratos swap recently and mostly just like. the reality of a vace+rex+nomi childhood friends trio in this au is so. man

#me realizing i think vace would be essentially the pov chara for this au: MAN #stratos kids in this concept is really fun i am soooo obsessed with military sol #mama flulu in a military heavy au is so......... man #flulu who's met geranium and is doing a little better than her previous military days but she's still this decorated soldier right #and sol wants soooo bad to make her proud. so they work really hard.#not realizing flulu really hates seeing them do this. but she knows its to impress her #so it's this awful feedback loop where sol is trying so so hard to make her proud and she is!#but also they can tell she's kind of reluctant to praise them so theyre like #well obviously i just need to work harder then :/ and end up becoming one of the best younger soldiers lol #them and marz are kind of always at odds for control over the social circle i htink #they tend to win tho just bc of like...... their clout etc. but marz sometimes gets little victories just bc. U Kno.#cal is like the weird outcast on this ship lol #i think him and sol were closer as kids but his utter pacifism leaves him completely on the outside u kno #dys is a bit of an outsider too but he's more of like a #doesnt play well with others outsider rather than a Freak outsider #he does well enough in training etc that ppl leave him alone mostly i htink #he and sol are definitely Weirdly Obsessed With Each Other #also military ship engineer tang like...... lmao #to prevent gvf would be either like. actively sabotaging her i think. its a whole thing #god. thinking thinking thinking #teenexo stuff #helio sol versus military stratos sol are different concepts lol #helio sol is like. pressure from mom makes them shut down so they kind of suck #versus military stratos sol where mom doesnt have hte pressure and instead is like #someone theyre trying so hard to impress themself #so they work way harder and better #its a whole thing. fun concept #thinking constantly always

Who is Ottile? I thought you had two cats and one was named Dinova??? Where did a third one come from..🤨

You’re correct! It was originally Rory and Dinova. There’s still only two, but here’s the story:

Chapter One:

When Rory and Dinova came to live with me here after the surrender prevention program they were in, Dinova became severely depressed. Worse than I’d ever seen her; she’d always struggled with Arlo, but even with medication and time to adjust, she wasn’t coping— she would not leave from her shelf in the tool room/basement cat room, stopped eating, stopped grooming. So even though it was one of the hardest decisions I’ve ever had to make, I had to allow the people from the surrender prevention program to find her a more suitable home. They did, and although I’m not allowed to know the details of where she is or who she’s with, I do know that she’s happier and healthier now, and she’s in a home with no dogs. I know it may seem terrible to rehome my eldest child for being unable to cope with my youngest, but Arlo would not be okay without me (and I wouldn’t be okay without him), whereas Dinova can be taken care of by anyone so long as they’re loving and are able to provide a space that she feels comfortable in. I wasn’t able to provide that for her.

Before we lost our home, I’d moved us into a larger, two bedroom home for the same reason— she wasn’t coping in a smaller space with Arlo, even after a few years. Unfortunately, even once I’m approved for disability, I will never realistically be able to afford a home large enough to accommodate the space she needs to comfortably live with a dog again. It would have been selfish of me to keep her with us just because I loved her.

Chapter Two:

Rory had never been an only cat before, not ever in her life. She’d also gone through the trauma of losing her home and her parent for a whole year without being able to understand why, only to lose her sister not long after being reunited with her parent in a bizarre new environment. So, after Dinova left, Rory became incredibly depressed. My silly goofy silky wind ferret alien thing was confused and lethargic and wouldn’t play, not even with her buddy Arlo. This lasted for some time with no improvement.

Eventually, Tyrell adopted Ottilie for Rory. How I came to find and select Ottilie is a whole story in itself, for another day maybe, but— Tyrell paid for Ottilie to be adopted and agreed to cover any emergency vet costs that may arise until we’re back on our feet (and cat food when I am unable to cover it myself). Once we brought her home, Rory was back to normal almost instantaneously. Not only that, but— while Dinova did love Rory, she was still always very standoffish with other pets and had trained Rory not to engage in play with her. Ottilie is the exact opposite— she’s brave and bold, playful and silly, and not shy with any animal, so over time Ottilie re-taught Rory how to play with her own species. It was very sweet watching Rory figure it all out.

Tyrell was also okay with adopting Ottilie because she and Thom had recently lost their 18+ year old gray cat, Winky, which was very very hard on them both. So on top of filling the Dinova shaped hole for Rory (and me), it also filled the little gray cat shaped hole in their hearts, too. Rory is happier than I’ve ever seen her. Ottilie has a home. Wherever she is, Dinova is happy and thriving for the first time in almost 7 years. Tyrell and Thom’s hearts are a little more soothed. My guilt is practically cured.

#Ottilie was picked out and named by me and adopted in my name and will leave with us when we can have our own home again #Tyrell’s just footing the bill until then #and lots and lots and lots of thought was put into the decision prior to making it #I fell in love with Ottilie the millisecond I saw her photo #Automatically knew she was One of Us just like I did with Rory and Arlo and Thimble #There was a very special set of circumstances that brought her into our lives #We’re all happier for it #Her name at the shelter was Ruby Dee #She’s named after my heart cat I lost in my teens- a nebelung named Oliver #and also bc Ottilie sort of like slant rhymes with Ruby Dee #I’ll post a photo of Oliver tomorrow if I remember #I only have one #Ottilie #I miss Dinova terribly but I know I did what was best for her well-being #almost every time I try to say Rory and Ottilie #it still comes out as Rory and Dinova #I appreciate you remembering Dinova #just for the record Arlo was trained to leave her alone and give her space #he was a good boy #she just couldn’t bear to live with him around #I think we’ve had Ottilie with us for around a year or so #if you click the Ottilie tag you can see photos #she’s very cute
