Words of Affirmation
Gojo would be overly sweet with his words only when teasing you— in front of family, friends, or whoever, he loves to put a blush on your face as you stammer and hit him back with a witty response. He thinks it’s hilarious, and after his lengthy laugh about it, you miss the gentler smile he gives you momentarily before engaging with the conversation again.
He fucking loves bragging about you to anyone who will listen, in a very confident and assured way. The way he talks about you almost doesn’t even qualify as bragging, his words are so confident, so obvious, he speaks as if he’s stating fact; and then he gives a smug little smirk, and yeahhh he’s bragging (he can’t help himself).
He’s much more sincere in private moments; he still teases you, but it’s softer and more praising, a gentle whisper against your ear before he bites your earlobe or some dumb shit like that. Because as sweet as he can be with you, Gojo at his core is a fucking brat.
When you give words of affirmation to him, it’s hard for him not to deflect it. He hears it all the time, that he’s the strongest, that he’s godlike and powerful and ethereally pretty, he’s heard it all. Comments like those are impersonal at best and dehumanizes him at worst. But you don’t do that, complimenting his peculiarities instead: the way he hums in the mornings as he brews tea, the way he’s so expressionate and easily excited, the amount of joy he brings by just being in your life. When you say things like that, he looks at you, his mind going blank by the wave of contentless he feels. He may reverse the compliment with a blush here and there, but majority of the time he just stands there looking at you with a tilt of his head and a blush on his cheeks.
Gift Giving
If there is one thing about Gojo Satoru, it’s that he fucking loves buying you sweet treats. He always says it like that too, “I’m coming home with a bag of sweet treats, don’t fall asleep on me now,” and “me? Buying a sweet little treat on my walk? You know me so well— I’ll be home soon 😋”. When there’s enough time between missions, he loves taking you around Japan to visit a bunch of cafes to try out their desserts!
On the other hand, giving him a gift is kind of hard. It’s not that he wants super luxury items, but he has enough money to buy anything he could want. So instead of going the route of luxury, you get creative; taking Polaroids of your dates and compiling a photo album, annotating a copy of his favourite book with all of your thoughts (so that when he’s reading, it’s like you’re right there with him, even if he’s on a mission on the other side of Japan), and other things of that nature.
Acts of Service
One would think that a man who the world asks everything of, would maybe want to shirk his responsibilities when it comes to personal relationships, but no. Gojo’s acts of care are preventative; potentially dangerous situations are handled before the risk gets any bigger. He’s not building that shelf though, good luck with that one 💀
That’s where you come in though. You’d make his life less stressful by stepping in when he’s tired. He can’t handle everything, he’s only human, no matter what the higher ups think. So if it takes building that shelf by yourself as he naps on the couch, you’ll do it. It’s not a grand gesture, it’s not like you’re literally saving his life, but the small things add up, and he’s immensely appreciative of your presence. He trusts you to hold down the fort when he can’t, and even more so when he pretends he still can.
Quality Time
For someone as busy as Gojo Satoru, he highly values any time spent with you. Regardless if it’s cafe dates and shitty movies, or something quiet and simple like a lazy Sunday morning, he loves the time he gets to be present at your side. He’s always early to arrive and late to leave, lingering on the edges of you.
Y’all get into so much mischief together too istg, the sheer amount of hijinks you two cause should be fucking studied. Your time together is chaotic and messy, filled with nonsensical games, plots for the next prank, and a soulful cackles that genuinely scare birds out of trees.
Gojo is used to being wanted for his usefulness. He loves that you consistently seek him out outside of that, that you chose to spend silly moments with him instead of solely focusing on what he can provide for you. That seems like such a low bar but like, it’s Gojo Satoru. The number of people like that in his life don’t even reach double digits.
Physical Touch
Gojo Satoru is always up in your fucking space let’s be so fr. That man always has an arm draped over your shoulder, a hand at your waist, his body nestling into yours to no end. Oh but it’s not all sunshines and rainbows; he forehead flicks you to get your attention, or purposefully bumps shoulders even though he just did like five seconds ago. He likes annoying you, likes the way you react to him being so touchy, so flirty, so goddamn annoying. Your responses are comforting in their consistency, even if you sometimes just huff and puff at him. If you bump his shoulder back, nip at him after he bites your lip, or purposefully make him stumble after locking arms? Fuuuck, you’re just playing into it, he gets worse 😭 (if you do it back and forth with him enough times it turns him on a lot, it’s like his bratty way of flirting)
Asides from when you play back into his shenanigans, Gojo also really likes when you reach for him first: holding his hand when yours is too cold or when you tiredly lean your head against his shoulder? He feels that same wave of happiness hit him and it renders him quiet and still, a small blush dusting his ears. He’ll look away momentarily, his heart fluttering, before quickly looking back at you, not able to focus on anything else for too long.
