⋮ ⌗ ┆WORD COUNT. 1185 — SUMMARY. late night patrols can get a little boring…thankfully (unfortunately) you ran into nightshade—who always enjoys making your day a little better (worse).
cw ݁₊ . slightly suggestive
The rooftop air was thick with heat and humidity, a sticky film clinging to your skin under the night-black suit. Tokyo City buzzed below with a life of its own—blaring car alarms, the distant wail of sirens, and the thrum of neon signs flickering in and out like broken stars. The skyline was a jagged line of silhouettes, painted silver under the glow of the full moon.
Perched like a shadow atop a residential rooftop, you admired the spoils of your nightly hunt. It had been a profitable evening…mostly.
“This one’s a dud,” you muttered, holding a jewel to the light. It shimmered with the elegance of something real—but your instincts and visor confirmed otherwise. It was just a well-crafted fake.
With an annoyed sigh, you flicked it off the edge of the building. It fell silently, swallowed by the depths of the alley below.
Next came a glistening pearl earring. You lifted it into the moonlight, flicking through the AI visor’s settings. A satisfying chime confirmed its authenticity.
Your lips curled into a victorious grin. “Score,” you whispered, tucking it away. That earring alone could give you two months’ worth of loan payments.
But the night was never without interruption.
A subtle change in the wind, and a flicker in your peripheral told you that something was off.
You stilled, one hand on your pouch, ears straining. At first glance, the rooftop was deserted. There was nothing but dusty chimneys and utility wires.
Then came the unmistakable sensation of being watched.
You sprang back instinctively—and landed facing him.
There he was. That familiar cocky silhouette, hair tousled silver in the moonlight, and his two-toned suit clinging to every inch of his lazy confidence. Nightshade.
“Just when I was so close…” he said, his tone teasing. “What are ya up to, kitty?”
You rolled your eyes, groaning under your breath. “Of course it’s you.”
With a sharp turn, you crossed your arms, unwilling to show even a hint of surprise.
“Shouldn’t you be doing something more productive with your time? Like, I don’t know—actual patrols?”
“I am doing my patrol, doll,” he replied, strolling toward the ledge you occupied, as if it were casual. “Got an alert about a break-in from Mrs. Saionji. Says someone stole her family jewels. Know anything about that?”
You shrugged, feeding the vigilante a well-rehearsed lie. “Nope. I’ve been here all night.”
Gojo tilted his head, eyes narrowing slightly behind his mask. “Really? Then what’s in the pouch, Cheshire?”
Your spine stiffened. You swung the pouch behind you, suddenly hyper-aware that you’d let your guard down. You’d forgotten how sharp he was, how easily he could see through things, and how he was actually a threat when he wanted to be.
“Things that belong to me,” you say firmly, stepping back. “Finders, keepers.”
“Yeah…no,” Gojo said, clapping his hands together. “You see, Mrs. Saionji’s a good friend of mine. She’ll definitely want those back.”
A beat passed. A moment of silence. And then—you ran.
Leaping off the building, you danced across fire escapes, ducked under satellite dishes, and sprang over alley gaps like a phantom.
You heard his footsteps echoing off the walls, always a half-step behind. The city was a blur beneath you—flashing billboards, rusting vents, broken windows.
“I can do this all night, sweetheart!” he called, voice annoyingly cheerful.
You groaned, vaulting a railing. “I hope you know you’re annoying!”
Through an abandoned apartment, out a shattered window—you landed on a narrow balcony, searching for your next move. Up. There was no other way but up.
“Thank you!” Nightshade’s voice came too close. You turned just in time to see him on the same balcony.
Startled, you leapt. But instead of grabbing a ledge, your fingers clutched a loose satellite dish.
“Shit—” The rusted metal groaned under your weight. You kicked off it just as it tore free, tumbling down with a crash that shattered the balcony.
“Nightshade?” You coughed through the debris cloud, peering over the ledge. You couldn’t see anything.
Suddenly your heart skipped, and worry overtook you. ‘No way…’
You jumped at the voice. A gloved hand gripped the ledge, and you watched as Gojo pulled himself up, dust trailing behind him, his grin undisturbed.
“It’ll take more than a rusty satellite to get rid of me.”
Relief flickered through you. Even though Nightshade was a nuisance, you didn’t want him to die. Especially not like that.
“Yeah, that would’ve been an embarrassing way to go.” You say with a grin, deciding not to run away, but step closer.
Gojo blinked, his eyebrows lifting in surprise.
Your mentor once told you that the best way to beat the enemy is to confuse them—and sure enough—Gojo fell right into your trap.
He lunged forward, unleashing a pulse of cursed energy. You ducked, claws swiping at his utility belt, as you swept under him. A pouch clattered to the ground.
“If you wanted to be under me so bad,” he started, his breath warm as he caught your wrist and spun you around, pinning you against him, “I could’ve arranged that.”
Your chest was pressed against his, instantly causing your breath to shorten. He smelled nice, like soap, musk and expensive cologne. Every part of him buzzed with power.
Dangerous, cocky, and infuriating power.
“Cute trick,” he whispered, his breath warm against your ear. “But now I’ve got you.”
You felt the tug as he unfastened your pouch—and you let him. What Gojo didn’t know was that you had already slipped something from his back pocket.
“Oh, sweetie…” your voice purred, “you never had me.”
Your knee jabbed between his legs—not too hard, but just enough to startle. You twisted, rolled him onto his back, and brought him into a straddle.
The rooftop gravel scraped beneath your boots as you held a clawed finger to his throat. His mask shifted with a grin.
“If you wanted to be on top of me so badly—” You pressed the claw against his neck, mimicking his earlier words. “You should’ve just asked, baby blue.”
His laugh was low, hungry. “I think I want a lot more than that, doll.”
You leaned close, breath grazing his cheek. You felt his arms ghost by your side—almost hesitant to hold your waist. And that’s when you retracted.
In a flash, you flipped backwards onto your feet and leapt off the building. Gojo scrambled up, rushing to the ledge in pursuit—only to find nothing.
Except a sticky note taped to his chest:
“Thanks for the gear, lover boy. Can’t wait to pawn them to the highest bidder! 💋”
His head snapped down, and sure enough all of his pouches were gone. All of them, except the one you’d let him take. The bag of Mrs. Saionji’s jewels.
Gojo blinked, then laughed through an exhale, raking a hand through his silver hair.
What he didn’t see, was that two rooftops over, you paused to watch him. A smile played on your lips, with your fingers still tingling from the shared moment.
