Inside the Prison Realm
You don't cry when they say his name.
You don't even flinch.
"Gojo Satoru has been sealed," Someone repeats, voice strained, like saying it again might make it make sense. "We need to assume he's unavailable indefinitely.
Unavailable. Like he missed a meeting.
You nod. Calm. Steady. You even speak - God help you, you speak.
"Okay," You say. "Then we regroup. We count numbers. We prioritize evacuation zones and cursed energy hotspots. Panic will not help."
Yuji's eyes glaze over in worry, something unspoken. Maki tightens her grip on her katana.
You don't break.
You don't scream.
You don't throw the nearest object against the wall with every bit of force you can muster.
You hold it together, because someone has to. You'd lost more in one night than you could have ever imagined, but you damn well weren't going to lose it in front of everyone, and especially not all these kids. God knows they're going through enough as is.
When you finally excuse yourself, you don't stop walking until you're alone.
A stairwell. Empty. Concrete walls closing in around you.
You brace your palms against the railings -and that's when it hits.
"There's no way," You whisper to the cold, damp air. "There's no way you're dead."
The words feel obscene in your mouth. Wrong. Incorrect. Unfathomable. Erroneous. Revolting. And yet, they don't stop.
"He's sealed. Is he alive? Dead?" The only way the others referred to him was 'neutralized' but that only raised more questions than answers. You couldn't bear to think of his cold, dead body held inside of a god forsaken cube. You couldn't bear to think of him in his final moments - swallowed by silence, with no one there to hold him as the world slipped away.
You scratch at your throat, desperate to regain some semblance of breathing.
Satoru, who laughs too loud and touches too often and never takes anything seriously - except you. Satoru, who promised, half-smiling, "I'll be back before you even miss me."
You slide down until you're sitting on the steps, pressing your hands to your face, muffling every sound, every breath.
Liar.
You don't allow yourself to cry. You can't. Everyone else needs you steady.
So you just sputter on the cold, bitter air.
Somewhere deep inside a cursed object sealed with ancient techniques and divine restraints:
Gojo Satoru scratches his back.
"Ohhhh, yeah," He hums, dragging the wooden curve of the back scratcher between his shoulders. "That's the spot."
The Prison Realm is quiet. Timeless. Boring.
He's already tested the boundaries. Already yelled. Already tried brute force, finesse, cursed energy overload, and sarcastic taunts.
Nothing really works.
So now, he's sitting, man-spreading, one arm resting on the chair while the other taps the back scratcher up and down on his thigh.
"...Man," He mutters, staring into nothing. "They're definitely freaking out."
He grins.
There's no doubt in his mind, not for a second, that you're out there holding the world (or what's left of it) together with as brave a face you could paint. That you thought the worst. That you're hurting.
His grin softens.
"Hang in there," Gojo says quietly, almost as if the cube could hear him. "I'll be back."
He stops bouncing the back scratcher.
"After all," He adds brightly, "I can't leave my favorite person worrying over me like that."
he was my friend, too
