[ They both know what a futile effort it is to try to talk Gojo out of something once his mind is made up, and deep, deep down…he knows it already is. The writing has been on the wall ever since the day he arrived, and a hotel is not a home. It’s just that — a place to stay away from home, not a permanent residence. That’s true for Nanami, and it’s true for himself. Everything he’s had here, everything relationship he’s forged and founded…
He doesn’t want to say they’ve been destined to end. Can’t say it, after the promises he’s made. But…even if he can eventually come back, there are things that only he can do, and he sure as hell can’t do them while he’s lingering here. It’ll eat at him, knowing what he knows now, especially. He…has to go back. Soon. He has to make sure that Nanami’s death wasn’t in vain. That whatever or whoever it was that did this to Yuji pays recompense. There will be a reckoning.
…Yet that’s only when he’s unsealed. ]
…Wish I could tell you. [ A harsh sigh spills from his lips. ] I couldn’t even tell you how much time has already passed while I’ve been in there. Could’ve been minutes, or years.It’s all…jumbled.
[ His mouth thins into a hard line. ]
But it doesn’t matter how long it takes. Either I’ll find a way out, or the others will. The special grades only sealed me because they knew they couldn’t kill me. I’m overdue to remind them why that is.
[ He always takes so much pleasure in jujutsu, in decimating his foes, but it will be a rare kind of privilege to tear apart the ones who sealed him. The one who stole Suguru’s body and paraded around in his skin.
