when col!gojo is asked what his favourite part of the day is, he often answers something silly—eating his sweet treat, pestering nanami, spending time with his oh-so-beloved students; the list goes on.
but this has been a revelation years in the making—how can he explain the paradox of feelings that surges from being in your arms? how can he explain that his heart swells, fills up each morning he wakes to find you next to him? you—being the first and last person he sees at the beginning and end of each day is a fact of life now that he still finds difficult to comprehend.
so when you’re dozing off, eyes half-lidded and mouth slightly ajar as a yawn creeps in, he doesn’t know what to say.
“what was your favourite part of today?”
he blinks, snuggling closer as you pull him in tighter.
this.
your fingers instinctively draw circles on his back—dragging up and down and around.
it’s this—the very thing he once thought he couldn’t, shouldn’t have.
now he can’t imagine life without it; doesn’t want to, either.
conversations on love #3 (gojo x reader) lil snippet sneakpeak!
Print photos aren’t as important anymore when cloud storage spaces are just as–if not more–accessible, but Gojo is admittedly sentimental despite every front he puts up to hide it.
He’s kept every single gift you’ve given him and camouflaged it as decoration in his office, and the family drawing 10-year-old Tsumiki made is still folded between the pages of a self-help book Yaga gave him when he first decided to teach.
When every moment is experienced so vividly, seen through a muddle of infinite energies, there are those he wishes could stay still—ones that take up space to remind him: ‘this is real, it happened, and because of it your life is irrevocably changed’.
For the longest time, Gojo has kept a photo hidden, locked away in the drawer by his bedside as if keeping it there means the memory will stay guarded forever—untouched, unspoiled, unruined.
It becomes clearer to him then, by the look in your eyes and remembrance soft-spoken, that what good is a photo unseen?
every time u call gojo ‘toru’, anywhere, anytime, he goes a lil crazy ! maybe wants to kiss u ! hold u ! fuck u so that’s the only word u speak (bc… it just !!! always brings him back to the first time 🥺 and !!! he remembers everything)
I was wondering more about col couple and i'm curious what do lovebirds do together in their day to day lives now that both of them can be at peace after everything that has happened? Do you think they'd have mini versions of themselves sometime in the future? (Ignore this if it's something uncomfy for you ^^)
Anyhow, i keep going back to re-read them over and over, it's just so captivating and my favourite thing yet so i love you so so much for creating this, you're also such a lovely individual here !! 🤍😭
tina darling!!! hiiii 🥹 i’m so touched that you’re re-reading omg??? 😭 pls i am sending u cookies and love mails!!! thank u so much for reading!! and u always say i’m a lovely person, but i hope u know that u are too!!! 😭 i hope you’re having the most beautiful day as well ❣️
i’m so touched that u’re thinking abt the col couple, they’re on my mind all the time too 🤧, thank u for asking this!!! 🥹
hmmm what do they do in their day-to-day now that everything’s more settled…
sorcerer work is still there, although a lot less!! and they handle a lot more on the admin side of things now (which i vaguely mention in the collection i think!)
satoru’s trying really hard to be a better partner 🥹 (whatever ‘better’ means, he’s just whipped!!! wants reader to feel all that he feels for em 🥹) & reader doesn’t ask for it, but he does all the cheesy things!! anniversary plans, those date ideas you can find on tiktok or ig reels, and he searches the top 10 romantic places for a picnic but forgets to check the forecast so it rains that day 🥹🤧😭
he tries to vlog some of it too!! for the ~~memories (and lowkey for the clout…) and posts it on his socials!! (yuuji leaves the sweetest comment and megumi gives a thumbs down 🤧) & it booms for a while but reader starts getting hate from like… 13 year olds… (he becomes a social media heartthrob unfortunately 😔) so he takes it down 😭 (and also—he sees comments on how hot reader is, some of them kind of… 😳, and he’s jealous so. nope. for his eyes only from now on!)
reader spends a lot more time w the students, or former students now, really & reader likes picking up new hobbies all the time!! trying out new things!! so there’s a rotation of the people that join in 🥺 (pottery with megumi, cooking with inumaki, yoga with yuuji (gojo joins in…. 👀🤨), dance with nobara 😭 and more!!!)
and!!! they move in together 🥺 officially 🥺 and his office is now theirs, also officially 🥹
would you all be interested in me writing more pieces on stuff like this for ‘conversations on love’? 😳
talks of children, kids, parenting, etc. under the cut
i don’t mind talking abt them having kids at all!! but thank you for being so thoughtful tina 🥺
i do love me a good papa!gojo 🥺 and i think reader would make such a loving parent too 🥺 so i can totally see it happening with them!! but!!! i don’t think it’s a priority, or something they actively think about/plan to happen 🥺
there’s definitely a lot of reluctancy with it (on both ends actually) —given that they’ve had a bit of experience with megumi and tsumiki despite being kinda thrust into it back then— they’d be more careful and conscious about it now, that if they do decide on mini-me’s, they want to be sure they can be present, in a world that’s safe and right to raise their own children 🥺
sorry this got so long!! but i hope i answered all your questions 🥹
@stellamancer tagging u here bc col couple is urs as much as they r mine 💘
i wanna know. i need to know, is gojo protective of col reader? i mean kinda dumb question, he probably is but i wanna know the details smh, what's he like? if she was in a threatening situation and all that i fell into this hole and i love them so much your honor !
omg nonie hello!! 🥺 thank u for dropping by n asking this!!!! i miss d col couple so much 🤧 i’m so happy u love them 🥹 thank u so much❣️
gojo’s protective of reader, yes, ofc!! but not too much i think!! i think the fact that they’ve been friends for so long + reader is also a sorcerer shows that reader holds her own!! i think gojo has a certain level of trust and respect for her (and her abilities) that he lets her experience things without him meddling and if getting hurt is part of it, because it’s part of the job, he understands that!! (i think reader would honestly feel a little insulted if he babies her for the serious things)
ofc he won’t allow anything drastic to happen though!! gojo’s kinda crazy but i also see him as extremely logical 😭 i think the only way reader can affect his judgment is when there are other things + reader at stake, and instead of being completely cold (choosing the most logical solution), he tries to save both!! (they probably have an understanding though—the whole, don’t save me if x y z is at stake, etc.)
if reader was ever in a life-threatening situation, i honestly think gojo would either: 1) go feral or 2) just shut down like go completely cold and practical.
i think!!! the only time gojo really gets protective of col reader is with the small things 🥹 esp when it’s just them! in their relationship :’) like !!! he actually gets jealous pretty fast lmao so i think he’s wary of other people, esp ~creepy ones taking notice of reader!
and!! when he notices reader getting bruises from accidentally bumping sharp edges in the apartment, he’s baby-proofing those asap lmao 😭 if not, then he just uses his hand when he notices her about to hit it.
he’s also really protective when it comes to reader’s dignity i think! more than anything, if reader isn’t respected by the people around him, he gets pretty pissy about it!!
i hope i answered ur question nonie!! & that i made sense 🥹 thank u again for asking this question aaaah i loved thinking abt it!! 💓
