i think sometimes we forget that gojo is equally as affected by trauma as geto is. more often than not, i see people empathize more with geto and it makes sense because we witnessed his downward spiral during the spv arc (hidden inventory arc), we were with him when he left. geto is humanized and gojo, while equally as loved, is infallible and βdoing okayβ because heβs funny and flippant. heβs the singular, the strongest.
but geto had a family, a support system. he wasnβt outright honest with them and he had to wear a βmaskβ for the most part (especially around mimiko and nanako, who he had to be strong for), but he had them, nevertheless, and he involved them in his plans, in his thoughts.
gojo completely shut out after geto left. he moves alone and heβs better like that, but who did he share his thoughts with? his feelings? his vulnerability? heβs a walking bag of trauma and if anybody needs all-encompassing love in jjk, itβs him.
(everyone, of course, but especially gojo.)
