"You're late, Satoru. Eight minutes late. Not enough to chastise you for, but I know I told you to fix your habit of being late." You all looked as the intimidating man was making cute things, you seen him glance at you "Y/n, your never late but since you're with Satoru I'll excuse it." You quickly bowed "thank you Yaga-san." Yuuji's face hardened as he stared at the stuffed animals around the male 'That old dude's making cute things!'

Despite your formalities Gojou was more informal "If it's not enough to chastise me for,
then don't chastise me. You're just making dolls, anyway. What's a measly eight minutes?" You elbowed the male making him huff and turn to Yuuji "That's Principal Yaga Masamichi."

"That's the boy?"

The pinkette then bowed with his eyes closed "Itadori Yuuji! I'm into y/- I mean girls like Jennifer Lawrence! Pleasure to meet you!"

"What did you come here for?"

Yuuji opened his eyes at the deep voice as he stood up straight "an interview?"

"But why Jujutsu Tech?"

"To learn jujutsu?"

"1 mean beyond that. What do you hope to find once you've studied curses and learned how to exorcise them?" Yaga then leaned back as he stared down the pinkette "Well, I mean... I'm going to collect the fingers of Sukuna. It's dangerous to just leave them as is." Yuuji hesitantly spoke out. "Why? People you'll never know die every day due to crimes, accidents, and diseases in the natural course of life.

Gojou nudged you with a grin on his face "Here he goes again." You smiled a bit before quickly shushing him. He huffed once more and leaned on you, you just crossed your arms. "But you're telling me you can't overlook it when that death is caused by a curse?" Yuuji leaned his head down a bit with slightly narrowed eyes "It was someone's dying wish. I don't care about the details. I just want to save people."

"A dying wish?" Yaga stood up. "So you're saying you'll fight against curses because someone else told you to? You fail." Yuuji's eyes widen. Yaga then stretches out his arm as a green doll stands up and growls. Yuuji stared in shock "Those weren't dolls?!"

"Cursed corpses. They're dolls. Dolls infused with my curse." Yaga then slightly flicked his hand as the doll disappeared before Yuuji's eyes before appearing in front of him and aimed a punch for his stomach. Yuuji quickly took his bag off his back and blocked its punch with it 'it's heavy!' The force of the punch, knocking the male into a pillar "Is that really a doll?!"

The doll then started to flex and taunt the male, you couldn't help but chuckle, causing Gojou to smile and locked you in a death hug "Y/n-chan! Your laugh is infectious~" you groaned "let me down Gojou." Gojou only tightened his hold. Back to Yaga "A person's true nature reveals itself during a crisis. I'll keep attacking you until I get an acceptable answer."

Yuuji stood up "Look, man, it wasn't just "someone else."" Yuuji then started to run towards the doll "It was a family member's dying wish!" He exclaimed as he punched the doll making it bounce back before bouncing from pillar to pillar at fast speeds, taking the light with it.

"Shit, where is it?!" Yuuji frantically looked around, trying to spot the doll. The doll then stopped and launched itself at the pinkette who turned around at the last moment, causing it to head butt him. The male hit the ground and roll. He then hit another pillar "ow.." he rubbed his head.

"A family member is still "someone else."" Yaga pointed out as he walked forward. Yuuji watched at the doll did another victory dance, he clenched his teeth 'Right, it's a doll. It doesn't get hurt or frightened.' He thought. Yaga looked at you and snapped his fingers. In a blink of an eye you were out of Gojou's grip and next to Yaga with a lit match. He nodded at you and took the match, lighting the candle next to you "A jujutsu sorcerer is constantly facing death. And not just their own death. Sometimes you must ignore those murdered by a curse to rend the flesh from it. It's an unpleasant job. You have to be a little crazy and highly motivated to handle it. You'd do that because someone else told you to? Don't make me laugh."

Despite his words being harsh you agreed with everything he said this job wasn't easy and can cost you your life "It'd be more believable if you told me you were doing it to postpone your execution." Yuuji narrowed his eyes, you could tell he was annoyed and frustrated "screw you! I-" Yaga interrupted him "Are you going to blame your grandfather when you're killed by a curse, too?"

Yuuji's eyes widened in realization before relaxing a little bit "You say some pretty damn harsh things, old man." Yaga rubbed his chin "Education is making people realize things." Yuuji placed his hand on his face as he was in deep thought "I'm not really..." before he could finish his train of thought he was met with a punch to the jaw, his body did a full of flip.

"It's not easy to imagine how you'll feel on the verge of death. However, I can say one thing for certain. At the rate you're going, you could end up cursing your beloved grandfather. Jujutsu sorcerers never die without regret. I'll ask you once more. Why have you come here to Jujutsu Tech?" The doll was high up in the air, it held its arm back ready to hit the pinkette.

You watched as Yuuji had a realization as he dodged the dolls fist and head butted it while also tackling it. They both rolled towards Gojou, who felt sad that you left his hold. Yuuji then held the doll in a choke hold "Consuming Sukuna is something only I can do. If I managed to escape my death sentence and ran away from this responsibility, l'd be there eating food, taking a bath, or reading manga, and the moment I stopped to think, I'd go, "Oh, I bet someone's dying because of Sukuna right now," and become depressed. "That doesn't involve me."

"It's not my fault."

"You expect me to just tell myself that? I refuse to do that." Gojou smiled as you closed your eyes and smiled as well "I don't know how I'll feel when I'm dying, but I don't want to regret the way I lived!" Yaga looked at him before facing you, he then made a decision "Satoru, Y/n." You opened your eyes.

"Show him to the dorm. Explain the security and everything else to him, too." You nodded and with a bow, you were back beside Gojou who immediately hugged your arm.

"Huh?" Yuuji questioned.

Yaga turned from where you were and looked at him "you pass. Welcome to Jujutsu Tech."

Yuuji smiled and loosened his grip on the doll making it fail around then punch him in the face. It then started to dance, you laughed softly making Yaga smile just a bit.

"Oh, sorry. I forgot to release the curse."

"This place is huge!" Yuuji exclaimed as he threw himself onto the bed. You leaned against the wall with your arms crossed as you watched him flailed around. "All the second- and third-years are out at the moment. Except for Y/n" you missed Yuta but you were glad that you had Maki and the others.

Yuuji ran around the room as Gojou continued to speak "but you'll meet them soon enough. There aren't many of them. But there's really no reason for you to fight, too, is there? Fushiguro, Y/n and I could retrieve Sukuna's fingers. You could just wait here."

"It's fine! I said I'd do it, and I'm doing it!, also what year are you Y/n-san?" He looked at you before turning back to the poster that he put up, you did not like it but you answered anyway "second year." He then looked shocked for a second before calming down "then should you be out with the others?" He questioned as you sighed "this idiot likes to drag me around with him."

Gojou dramatically clenched his shirt where his heart is "But Y/n-chan! You love hanging out with me!"

"No I don't."

"Rude!"

Yuuji then thought for a moment "Though lazing around......while Fushiguro came in all beaten up to bring me a finger would be a funny sight."

"That's true." Gojou agreed.

You deadpanned "not really.."

Gojou then smiled happily as he loudly exclaimed "Well, I know there's no way in hell you're not gonna fight."

"Hey! You were testing me?!"

Gojou then leaned down to his height "you really need to learn about personal space." You told him but he dismissed it "If they were that easy to find, we would've found them all already." After explaining it to Yuuji you all walked out the room. "I think we can come to a win-win agreement there."

You seen as Megumi opened the door to his room as he stared at you three "You're next door?"

"Oh, Fushiguro! You look like you're doing well now." The mentioned male scratched the back of his head. You nodded in agreement "you're right this time Yuuji."

Megumi ignored the heat rising up to his cheeks "There were plenty other empty rooms, weren't there?" Gojou walked for with a smile "But isn't livelier better? I thought it'd be good for-" "Classes and missions are enough."

You nudged Yuuji, catching his attention you then gestured toward the open door making him grin and nod. You then lead Yuuji around them, neither one noticing you both. You both then looked inside "Wow, it's so organized." Yuuji said quite loudly. You made a noise in agreement. Megumi was embarrassed to say the least you were his crush after all.

Megumi gently grabbed your arm, pulling you back "I just said you're unwelcome!" He then slammed Yuuji's head in the door. Gojou clasped his hands together with his usual smile "Well, it's all good. More importantly, we're heading out tomorrow! We're gonna go pick up the third first-year."

"Wait who is we?" You said looking at the overlying exciting teacher who gave you a mischievous grin. You could only sigh 'here we go again.'
