Hey do you know alot about internal organs. Cause if so then i have a pretty specific question.
Are... are your organs covered in blood??? Since blood tends to flow thru the blood vessels, and if your body is healthy and all your blood vessels are imtact then your organs shouldn't be covered in blood, right? But just saying that feels wrong.
No, unless you are actively experiencing internal bleeding then your organs are not covered in blood. They are however wet, but it's cerebrospinal fluid and mucus that keeps them that way.
Trust me you do not want them to be in any other condition. If they were covered in blood then there would be no way for your body to effectively circulate that blood, leading you to bleed out. As for them being wet, I personally would not want to experience dry friction on my organs so I am more than okay with that
Also just to clear up any further confusion, cerebrospinal fluid (as the name implies) is contained to just your brain and spinal cord. The rest are protected by mucous
Small correction to my original answer: your organs are not covered in blood unless you are bleeding internally or happen to be a bug
I love tumblr

NOTE: If you've never seen Nikto from COD before he does have acute dissociative disorder, so at times he will refer to himself as 'Us/We' a bit randomly.
Ever since your little evening reconciliation with Nikto it had gotten..

That fucking blog thatâs mocking black reader/writers have nothing better to do just like the tojioffline account, both just so despicable and disgusting. Jjk fandom needs a damn cleanse fr
tw discourse and bulllllshiiiiit
the concept of creating a blog solely to talk shit and then not have to take accountability when you create an unsafe space for people𫤠donât tell people to do better when youâre encouraging harmful behavior.
weâre all here to write or read and i think almost everyone would be a lot happier if blogs like @/tojioffline didnât exist.
i want everyone to remember that you donât know these people!
at the end of the day youâre spending time sending in/responding to asks about creators who you have no real relationship with to other creators that you also have no real relationship with. itâs fucking weird.
you donât actually know anything about anyone here and itâs odd to be talking like you do.
the wonderful thing about being online is that thereâs a block button wherever you go, so letâs start utilizing that instead of doing whatever the hell this is.
you donât like that someone did something? block. you donât want to read certain content? block. you donât like the way this persons blog is laid out? hey! you can block for that too!
grow upđŤś
This is so disgusting and absolutely heartbreaking that anyone would even consider making this. So I am asking people to report this blog for bullying. I don't have to tell any of you why creating a place that encourages negativity is awful. And then sending an ask to inform after? Yeah, you all know exactly what you're doing.
not to mention "anons for jjk". yeah. you all must think you're fucking slick huh @tojioffline
what is even going on the jjk fandom
what could possibly possess you to do this đđđ
i love how everyone on this website is kind of pathetic it brings such a sense of understanding and community

đ¸six strings - satoru gojo x reader
summary: you think gojoâs forgotten about you, after all heâs the guitarist of the most famous band - six strings - the same band you pushed him to pursue with his best friends shoko and geto. he got it all, the band, the fame but lost you in the midst of pursuing this passion. however, with the release of their new song has gojo really forgotten about you?
| wc: 5.3k | art credits - clemenlush | listen to the playlist attached for the best reading experience| rock star gojo au, angst.
ââ ⢠ăťâ¸â¸
satoru gojo had always been described as someone built for the cosmos, as if his entire existence had been engineered for equations, telescopes, and the kind of research that made academics salivate. his parents certainly believed it -- theyâd mapped out his future with the precision of a launch trajectory, leaving no room for deviation, let alone rebellion. to them, he was a prodigy destined to expand humanityâs understanding of the universe.
but you, youâd never met anyone who looked more suffocated by praise.
the universityâs astrophysics building loomed over the courtyard like a monument to ambition, it was all sharp lines and reflective panels that caught the afternoon light in a way that made the whole place feel like whoever you were...you were going places with your life. you stood beside satoru on the steps, both of you pretending you werenât waiting for the results of the latest exam to drop. the two of you had been rivals since first year, constantly pushing each other, constantly pretending it was all casual.
it wasnât casual. not even close. is it ever?
there was a current between you that neither of you acknowledged outright, an unspoken awareness that every argument, every lateânight study session, every shared glance carried a charge that didnât belong to simple rivalry. it was apparent in the way he leaned a little too close and in the way you never quite pulled back, both of you pretending not to notice the gravity drawing you in. and somewhere in that unspoken space, the pattern revealed itself .
six eyes seeing too much, six strings waiting to be played, and saturn circling as the sixth planet.
all of them orbiting the same truth that the two of you kept avoiding, as if the universe itself had been quietly arranging your trajectories long before either of you realised.
satoru nudged your shoulder, âif the professor doesnât adjust the marking again, half the cohortâs going to riot,â he said, his voice carrying that familiar mix of arrogance and theatrical despair.
âyou mean youâll riot,â you replied, adjusting your bag. âyou looked like you were about to combust halfway through question three.â
he scoffed, flicking his platnium hair out of from his glazes, revealing his bright blue eyes. âi donât 'combust'. i merely reassess my priorities.â
you rolled your eyes, but the truth was youâd noticed the way his leg bounced under the desk, the way his pen tapped out restless patterns, how he stared at the page like he was somewhere else entirely. satoru gojo was brilliant, but brilliance didnât always mean contentment.
youâd known him long enough to see the tension beneath the surface, he would stiffen whenever his parentsâ names came up, he always avoided talking about the future, and his fingers drummed on tabletops with a flow that didnât match any academic habit youâd ever seen.
you didnât understand it fully until that afternoon.
instead of heading to the study session youâd both agreed to attend, satoru veered off the main path without warning, hands shoved deep in his pockets. âcome on,â he said, not bothering to check if you were following.
you did, because you always did.
he led you across campus, past the observatory and the labs, past the places where he was meant to thrive. eventually he stopped in front of the old music building -- a relic from a time when the university pretended to care equally about the arts. the paint was peeling, and the windows rattled in the breeze, but there was something strangely inviting about it.
satoru pushed open a side door, and the scent of aged timber and dust drifted out.
inside, the room was cluttered with forgotten instruments and abandoned sheet music. he walked straight to a battered guitar case propped against the wall, hesitated for a moment, then opened it with a care youâd never seen him show to anything academic.
the electric guitar inside was sleek and dark, it was an instrument that demanded attention and fit his cocky personality perfectly. it didnât match the version of satoru the world expected. but it matched the version of him youâd glimpsed in fleeting moments, the one who seemed desperate for something he couldnât name.
âsince when do you play?â you asked.
âsince before i knew what astrophysics even was,â he said, his tone stripped of its usual bravado.
he lifted the guitar with a familiarity that made your chest tighten. his fingers slid along the strings, not producing sound, but tracing something like memory.
âthis is what i actually want,â he said, eyes fixed on the instrument. ânot the research, not the expectations, not the future everyone keeps planning for me.â
you stepped closer, studying the tension in his shoulders. âthen why arenât you doing it?â
he let out a breath that seemed to carry years of pressure. âbecause wanting something doesnât mean itâs possible.â
you didnât even think before responding. âthatâs rubbish.â
he finally looked at you, and for the first time, his expression wasnât smug or amused or performative. it was uncertain, almost vulnerable, like he was waiting for you to confirm that he wasnât being ridiculous.
âyeah?â he said quietly. âand what do you reckon i should do?â
you nodded toward the guitar. âstart there.â
ââ six strings: the rise ⢠ăťâ¸â¸
fame meant freedom to satoru gojo -- and he's chased that for years, the kind he only reached because you were the one who told him his music wasnât a distraction but a direction.
you were the first person who treated his playing like something worth taking seriously. you listened to every rough demo, every lateânight recording, every halfâfinished idea he sent you with a mix of nerves and hope. you told him he had something rare, something that deserved a stage, and your belief became the foundation he built the rest of his life on.
the band formed around him with a sense of inevitability. suguru geto stepped in as their vocalist, his voice carrying a raspy, seductive sensitivity that cut through any room and held attention without effort. ieiri shoko joined on drums, grounding their sound with a steady, deliberate rhythm that shaped every track. satoruâs guitar threaded through it all, distinct and controlled, the element that gave their music its identity.
they called themselves the six strings, a name that stuck quickly and spread even faster. their first major release, robbers, hit the scene with a unsettling, restless energy that caught listeners off guard. the intro sending chills down listeners spines and it climbed charts with surprising speed, appearing on radio rotations, festival lineups, and playlists across the country. people connected with the intensity of geto's vocals and the precision in satoruâs guitar, and the bandâs following grew almost overnight.
fallingforyou pushed them further. the track carried a silent tension, and audiences latched onto it instantly. it became the song people played on repeat, the one fans recorded covers of, the one that turned the six strings from rising artists into a band everyone recognised.
then heartout arrived, and everything accelerated. the song exploded across social media, festival crowds screamed the lyrics back at them, and ticket sales for their tour vanished within minutes. journalists compared them to the biggest acts of the decade. critics praised their cohesion, their sound, their presence. the bandâs name appeared everywhere -- billboards, magazines, lateânight shows, international festival posters.
concerts became events. fans queued overnight, traded bootleg recordings, and filled venues with an energy that felt electric. shoko commanded the stage with ease, geto drove the rhythm with precision, and satoru played with a focus that drew every eye in the room. he became the face of a new generation of guitarists because he wasn't someone who didnât just perform but shaped the entire atmosphere of a song.
the six strings were a listers, they were the band everyone talked about, the band shaping the sound of the moment, the band that seemed to rise out of nowhere and take over everything. and at the centre of it all stood satoru gojo, living the life you once told him he deserved.
ââ six strings: about you ⢠ăťâ¸â¸
on february 14th, six strings dropped a song called âabout youâ with an album announcement following later that may. if six strings were popular before, then the release of âabout youâ lead them straight to music royalty status. it was everywhere yet never got over played, even after a month of constant media attention to the song the hype never died down. it was a timeless piece, slowly becoming a classic. everyone wanted to know what the song was about, more so who?
ę° ď˝Ľ a clip from an interview ď˝Ąďž ęą
interviewer: why are you called âsixâ strings when there are only three of you?
geto: the extra three came from when i f#cked your mum last night-
[camera cuts]
shoko: it just sounded cool, can we not sound cool? why does everything have to have this deep meaningâŚweâre six strings because it sounds cool!
gojo: saturn is the sixth the planetâŚwhen i was younger someone special to me loved saturn and space the way i loved music and guitar. the guitar has six stringsâŚwhen i came to that revelation it only made sense to call us the six strings. an ode to the instrument and the person who- uh- six strings because of the instrument.
geto rolls his eyes and sighs, just then a group of girls cheer in the audience just at his mere existence. shoko is sitting there unbothered, fidgeting with the cigarette pack in her lap which sheâs been restrained from opening. gojo however bites the inside of his cheek, shocked at himself for stuttering when answering such a clear question with an even clearer answer.
ę° ď˝Ľ end clip ď˝Ąďž ęą
youâre back in your room and the only light comes from your desk lamp, warm and soft, pooling over your physics notes and the halfâfinished assignment thatâs been draining your soul since dinner. the equations stretch across the page like theyâre mocking you, each line a reminder that your life now revolves around deadlines and problem sets instead of guitar strings and halfâbaked dreams in someoneâs mumâs garage.
itâs almost comical when you think about it. a few years ago, you and gojo were sitting on the floor arguing over which formula applied to a projectile motion question, both of you waving pencils like weapons and insisting the other was catastrophically wrong. now youâre not even sure what he talks about anymore.
maybe heâs debating which toner keeps his hair from going brassy under stage lights?
maybe heâs deciding which part of the chorus is the optimal moment to stick his tongue out for maximum crowd hysteria?
the hater in you cringes at the theatrics, at the glitter, at the persona heâs built like a second skin.
but beneath all that, thereâs an admiration you canât quite shake. because you know, better than anyone, that this version of him isnât fake. itâs loud and messy and dramatic, sure, but itâs also the truest heâs ever been. the same ambition that used to spill out of him in that cramped garage. the same dorky enthusiasm that made him bounce on his toes when he figured out a new chord. the same spark, the same damn thing that made your heart surrender long before you were ready to admit it.
you finally close your laptop, the click shut sounding like victory after hours of mental warfare. you stretch your arms above your head, feeling every muscle complain, and wander into the bathroom to start getting unready. the mirror greets you with tired eyes and smudged mascara, a reminder that youâve lived several lifetimes in one day. you tie your hair back, reach for your cleanser, and let the warm water run over your hands.
just as youâre about to wash your face, your phone buzzes sharply against the counter, one of those vibrations that feels urgent, like the device itself is panicking.
you freeze, water dripping from your fingers.
another buzz, louder this time, rattling against the porcelain.
you grab it, thumb swiping across the screen, and your best friendâs name flashes at you, followed by a message typed with the kind of ominous energy only she possesses:
âanswer your phone. iâm calling.â
before you can even process it, the screen lights up again-- this time with an incoming call. you sigh, wipe your wet hands on your pyjama pants, and pick up.
âwhat,â you say, not even trying to hide the exhaustion.
your friend doesnât bother with hello. âokay, donât freak out, but i just scored glastonbury tickets.â
you blink. âyou what.â
âfrom that guy iâm hooking up with,â she continues breezily, like this is the most normal sentence in the world. âhe had extras. like, actual passes. not the fake ones that get you arrested.â
you stare at your reflection, cleanser still foaming in your hand. âyouâre joking.â
âi never joke about free festival tickets,â she says, dead serious. âpack a bag. weâre going.â
you let out a breath thatâs halfâlaugh, halfâgroan, the absurdity of it all settling over you. glastonbury. the band. the boy youâve spent years trying not to think about. the world you left behind.
and now itâs knocking on your door again, loud and impossible to ignore.
âyou in?â she asks, voice buzzing with excitement.
your heart thuds once, hard.
you donât answer and cut the call. mainly because your friend knows you all too well and that your answer is yes.
ââ first live perfromance of 'about you'⢠ăťâ¸â¸
the crowd forms, six strings are headlining glastonbury, an even higher career high from everything they achieved with their first EP. this was massive, performing the most popular song of the moment in one of the most renowned festivals. this is what dreams are made of, baby!
ę° ď˝Ľ back stage: 3 hours before going on stage ď˝Ąďž ęą
shoko: you don't think your hair gel is a bit excessive, suguru?
geto: i think you're a bit jealous i'm on girls pinterest boards for hair inspiration and not you. and for the record, i don't use gel...i use kerastase hair serum.
shoko elbows him, geto whincing even before her elbow reaches his crotch.
shoko: for the record i don't give a f#ck about being on anyones pinterest board, i myself am the pinterest board. and i think you're forgetting there was only one memeber in our band not invited to paris fashion week and it wasn't me or toru.
gojo is fidgeting with his guitar strings and let's out a deep chuckle.
geto: why am i even arguing with you? i am supposed to be saving my voice for our performance in a bit.
shoko: funny way to accept defeat.
gojo walks up to the both of them. doing little excited jumps and shaking his hands to get rid of his nerves.
shoko: eww, i don't want to ever see a 6'5, grown man ever do something like that...
gojo tilts his head, going up to shoko to condescendingly squish her cheeks.
gojo: whatever you say...and i'm not in the mood to argue so say whatever you want...we have the number one song in the world, we're young, we're talented, and we're headlining f#cking glastonbury! we're on top of the worlddddd
this gets geto and shoko to smile, both shaking their heads at gojo's cheerful antics.
shoko: excited to finally tell people who 'about you' is about?
gojo sitffens, usually youthful blue eyes turning dull, perssing his lips together.
gojo: it's not about anyone...it's just a concept i came up with in the middle of the night.
gojo looks to geto for support, but he throws his hands up and points to the fact he can't speak because he's saving his voice. shoko places a friendly hand on gojo.
shoko: the only way we're going to make this performance iconic is if we give the people what they want, and what they want is answers to what this ethereal yearning anthem is actually about.
gojo: i told you it's not about anyone.
shoko sighs and goes to put on her jewellery, leaving gojo to his own devices. it wasnât rocket science for them two to figure out all these lyrics from fallingforyou to now about you are all about the same girl who used to accompany them all when they would practice.
ââ ⢠glastonbury, 30 minutes before setăťâ¸â¸
thirty minutes to glastonbury and the festival feels like itâs conspiring against you, every path you take folding back into the same heaving artery of bodies moving toward the main stage, as if the entire place has decided you need to confront the one thing youâve spent years pretending youâd outgrown. the air is thick with unpleasant beer breath and the sweet burn of incense, and the sky is doing that smug lateâafternoon shimmer where everything looks dipped in gold, which would be lovely if it didnât make every memory of him feel more brighter, harder to ignore.
your friend is halfâdragging you, halfâfloating through the crowd, her wristbands clacking together like sheâs wearing festivalâissued handcuffs, and you keep trying to slow her down with increasingly desperate distractions. you linger at a stall selling ethically questionable henna, you pretend to be fascinated by a man balancing on a slackline, you even stop to examine a pair of sunglasses shaped like fried eggs, but sheâs immune to every tactic, buzzing with the kind of excitement that makes her impossible to deter. she keeps talking about how this is a onceâinâaâlifetime moment, how six strings are about to rewrite history, how youâll regret it forever if you miss even a second of their set, and you nod along even though your stomach is twisting itself into a sailorâs knot.
the bass from the previous act rolls across the field in slow, heavy waves, vibrating through the soles of your shoes and up your spine, and you canât help thinking about the nights you spent sitting crossâlegged on the floor of gojoâs mumâs garage, watching him fiddle with pedals and strings like he was trying to coax the universe into tune. you remember the way heâd grin at you-- wide, reckless, too bright for the dim little room, and how youâd pretend you werenât melting under it. you remember geto humming halfâfinished melodies, shoko tapping out rhythms on empty paint cans, all of them dreaming out loud about stages like this one while you tried not to imagine what would happen when those dreams carried them somewhere you couldnât follow.
you try to shake it off, but the universe is committed to the bit. the crowd shifts, and suddenly youâre staring straight at a massive screen looping behindâtheâscenes clips of the band: geto adjusting his mic with that lazy confidence, shoko spinning a drumstick between her fingers, and gojo...god, gojo laughing at something offâcamera, head thrown back, hair a mess of whiteâblond chaos that somehow still looks intentional. the sight hits you like a punch, devastating, and you look away so quickly you nearly collide with a girl wearing angel wings made of tinsel.
your friend squeezes your hand, oblivious to the way your pulse jumps.
âweâre close,â she says, weaving you deeper into the crowd until youâre swallowed by a sea of glitter, sweat, and anticipation. the stage looms ahead, enormous and electric, framed by towers of lights that flicker like theyâre warming up to blind you. the countdown clock is projected across the screens, each second slipping away with the smug inevitability of fate.
you tell yourself youâre fine, that youâre just another face in the crowd, that he wonât see you, wonât think of you, wonât feel that old gravity tugging at the edges of his composure. but then the lights dim, the field of people finally goes silent, and the first soft hum of the opening synth drifts across the air like a ghost brushing past your shoulder. the crowd erupts, a tidal wave of sound that rattles your ribs, and you lift your head despite every instinct screaming at you to look anywhere else.
the stage blooms in blue light.
the silhouette of his guitar is unmistakable.
and in that suspended moment, caught between the past you ran from and the present youâve stumbled into -- you realise youâve spent years avoiding a story that was always going to find you again.
ââ ⢠flashback: university first yearăťâ¸â¸
you step inside just in time to see geto pacing like a man reconsidering every life choice that led him here, his hair tied back messily, his jaw tight. shoko is slouched over her drum kit, tapping the rim with a stick in a way that feels less like rhythm and more like a threat. gojo stands in the middle of the room, guitar hanging off him like itâs personally offended him, shoulders hunched in a way youâve never seen before.
you lift the bag in your hand, the plastic rustling with the weight of your peace offering-- pocky, umaibo, kinoko no yama, those weirdly addictive calbee prawn chips, a couple of ramune bottles clinking together like theyâre cheering you on. the smell of strawberry and seaweed hits the air, and shokoâs head snaps up like sheâs been summoned by a deity.
âoh thank god,â she mutters, abandoning her sticks to rummage through the bag before youâve even set it down properly. âi was about five minutes away from committing a crime.â
geto stops pacing long enough to take a ramune, popping the marble with a sigh that sounds like relief and despair at the same time. âhe keeps missing the timing,â he says, gesturing at gojo like heâs presenting evidence in court. âand then he says heâs not missing the timing, which is somehow worse.â
gojo bristles, cheeks pink, fingers tightening around the guitar neck. âiâm not missing it, youâre just counting weird.â
âiâm counting in four-four,â geto deadpans. âthe most normal, simple, time signature known to man.â
shoko snorts, mouth full of pocky. âtoru, babe, youâre playing like youâre trying to summon a demon.â
gojo groans, dragging a hand down his face, and for a moment the room feels too small for his frustration, too small for the dream heâs trying to force into shape. geto and shoko exchange a look and then theyâre grabbing their things, muttering something about vending machines and fresh air as they slip out the door.
the room is just know you two, the leftover unspoken tension settling like dust that geto and shoko left behind. gojo stands there, staring at the floor, shoulders still tight, breath shallow. you walk over slowly, the crinkle of snack wrappers the only sound between you. when you reach him, you lift your hands and cup his face, palms warm against his flushed cheeks.
he startles a little, eyes flicking up to yours -- blue, bright, uncertain in a way that makes your chest ache.
âhey,â you say, voice low, steady, threading through the room like a melody meant only for him. âyouâre fine. youâre more than fine. you just need to breathe.â
his lashes flutter, the tension in his jaw easing under your thumbs. he leans into your touch without meaning to, like gravityâs doing the work for him.
âiâm trying,â he murmurs, the words small, he is so embarrassed. âi just⌠i donât want to hold them back.â
you shake your head, brushing your thumb along his cheekbone. âyouâre not holding anyone back. youâre going to be the biggest star in the world, toru. you just have to keep going.â
the words land softly but deeply, sinking into him like theyâve been waiting for a place to root. his breath catches, something bright flickering behind his eyes. hope, belief, the beginning of something enormous.
he smiles then, slow and crooked, the kind of smile that could light up a stage long before he ever steps onto one.
âyou really think so?â he asks, voice barely above a whisper.
âi know so,â you answer, and for a moment you can feel his heartbeat and yours sync up.
ââ ⢠glatsonburyăťâ¸â¸
gojo steps up to the mic, shoulders tight, jaw clenched, eyes flicking between the crowd and his bandmates as if either one might save him. getoâs staring at him with a confused halfâfrown, one hand hovering near his own mic like heâs ready to yank it back. shokoâs frozen midâlean over her drums, her expression somewhere between what is he doing and this better not ruin my eyeliner.
the crowd screams anyway, loud and wild, because they think this is part of the show. because they donât know heâs improvising. because they donât know heâs seconds away from saying something heâs avoided for years.
he grips the mic with both hands, knuckles white, and clears his throat. the sound echoes across the field, sharp and awkward. he winces. shoko winces. geto winces harder.
but he doesnât step back.
he takes a breath. slow, shaky, a metaphor for it dragging his whole past up with it, and then he starts talking.
âpeople change you,â he says, voice rough but steady enough to carry. ânot in some big dramatic way like in those sappy movies. sometimes itâs just⌠one moment. one sentence. one person who looks at you like youâre capable of more than you think.â
the crowd quiets, leaning in.
âand when someone believes in you like that,â he continues, eyes fixed somewhere far past the lights, âit sticks. even when life moves on. even when you do. even when youâre trying really hard to pretend it doesnât matter anymore.â
getoâs eyebrows shoot up. shokoâs mouth falls open a little. neither of them expected this.
gojo swallows, thumb brushing the mic like heâs grounding himself. âi wouldnât be here without that. without⌠someone who told me to keep going when i was ready to quit. someone who said i could be something. someone who meant it.â
the crowd murmurs, everyone have their phones pulled out and recording by now.
he lets out a shaky laugh, more breath than sound. âso before we play this next song⌠i just wanted to say that. that sometimes the right person shows up at the right time, and it changes everything.â
he pauses, chest rising and falling, the truth sitting heavy in the air.
âand this song is for them.â
the field erupts.
and gojo stands there, heart pounding, knowing heâs just crossed a line he canât uncross.
shokoâs sticks hover above the snare, her whole body coiled with the clean, sharp focus she only gets right before a song starts. she gives the band a quick look, geto steady, gojo wired like a live wire, and then she counts them in, her voice cutting through the roar of the crowd.
âone, two--â
the lights shift, the synth swells, and the opening chords of about you are seconds from breaking open across glastonbury. geto steps forward, ready to sing the first line, breath already drawn, posture relaxed because of all the hours he spent practising.
but gojo moves before the sound even hits the air.
itâs quick. messy, instinctive, almost clumsy. he reaches out and grabs the mic stand with one hand, dragging it toward himself so abruptly that geto actually stumbles a halfâstep, eyes wide with shock. shokoâs sticks freeze midâair, her mouth parting in disbelief. not again.
the crowd screams, thinking itâs part of the show, but the band knows better. gojoâs chest is rising too fast. his fingers are shaking. his eyes are locked on the crowd like heâs searching for one face in a sea of thousands.
the backing track still playing, but the entire field goes still.
gojo leans into the mic, breath catching once in his throat before he forces the words out-- loud, clear, and so direct it slices through the night like a blade.
âthis is about you.â
the crowd erupts into confused cheers, but he doesnât blink, doesnât smile, doesnât play it off. he tightens his grip on the mic, knuckles white, and says it again. slower this time, like he wants to make sure the right person hears it.
âyou know who you are.â
getoâs jaw drops. shoko actually nearly drops a stick, the clatter swallowed by the noise of fifty thousand people losing their minds.
and then gojo says the thing heâs been holding in his chest for years, the thing he swore heâd never say out loud, the thing that feels too big for a stage and too raw for a crowd this size.
âi love you.â
the field explodes-- screams, gasps, hands thrown into the air-- but gojo doesnât move. he stands there in the middle of the chaos he just created, breathing hard, eyes shining under the stage lights, looking like a man whoâs finally stopped running.
but itâs nothing compared to the way your chest caves in when gojoâs voice cuts through it. the words hit clean and direct, no metaphor, no shield, just truth thrown into the night like heâs daring the world to catch it.
this is about you. you know who you are. i love you.
your best friendâs head snaps toward you so fast her earrings nearly fly off. her eyes are huge, glitter catching the stage lights, and she looks at you like sheâs watching a plot twist sheâs been waiting seven years for. her mouth opens, closes, opens again--no sound, just pure shock .
you donât look back at her. you canât. your eyes are glued to the stage, to the tall figure standing under the lights like heâs been carved out of them, shoulders tight, chest rising too fast, fingers still wrapped around the mic stand like heâs holding onto something that might slip away.
your heart drops. it plummets-- heavy, sudden, like itâs falling through every version of your life where you and him were still in the same orbit.
the crowd is losing its mind, people grabbing each other, screaming, filming, crying, but all you can hear is the rush of blood in your ears and the faint echo of a rehearsal room years ago, when he could barely look you in the eye without turning pink.
your friend grabs your arm, nails digging in. âthat-- thatâs--â she tries to shout over the noise, but the words dissolve before they reach you.
because youâre staring at him, and heâs staring at nothing.
heâs not scanning the crowd.
heâs not searching for a face.
heâs not looking for you.
he doesnât know youâre here.
youâre one person in a sea of thousands, swallowed by lights and smoke and the sheer scale of the world heâs built for himself. heâs on a stage that belongs to legends, and youâre standing in the mud with a plastic cup of cheap cider, heart in your throat, listening to a confession meant for a ghost version of you heâs been carrying around.
the band launches into the opening chords of about you, the sound swelling, bright and aching. geto steps in, voice steady, shokoâs drums hit like thunder, and gojo bows his head over his guitar, fingers moving with a confidence he didnât have back then.
you watch him, this man who used to trip over his own amp cables, who used to ask you if his hair looked stupid, who used to grin at you like you were the only person in the room. and you realise how far away he is now. how far youâve drifted. how far heâs climbed.
youâre still supporting him, still cheering for him, still loving him in that quiet, private way that doesnât ask for anything back.
but youâre not part of his world anymore, youâre part of the crowd.
and heâs part of the sky.
the song ends, the lights flare, and the distance between you stretches out.
bittersweet doesnât even begin to cover it.
ââ ⢠the endăťâ¸â¸
an: formal apology for a) making t@kumi as geto, b) for not having a happy ending, because this was originally an angsty headcanon but then this storyy came to me. i love the 1975 sm, i just hope there is someone out there who loves jjk and 75â and is the perfect target audience for this. oki, baiiii

This is an important message that needs to get out to Markiplier!
There is a gang war in LA. The first gang to get to 100 kills, gets to take over that part of the city. You NEED to be careful, Mark. You could be at high risk because of your high status. PLEASE be safe, everyone in or around LA, and please reblog this to get it to the youtubers in LA.
I just worry about their safety.
markiplier stay safe! <3
i would like a hugâŚ. JUST KIDDING! i would like TWO hugs. (suddenly becomes cold and standoffish) i donât need anything or anyone and i donât want to talk about it.
