    Summary

    Now that he's looking for it, Yuuji can feel it: the words are etched into him, woven into his muscles and carved into his bones. Start by saving me, Itadori. Yuuji promised he would, so now he must.

    The burning pain is starting to come back again. It begins in his chest this time, slightly to the right. Yuuji swallows, reaching up to press his hand against it.

    So, he thinks dazedly, as the universe begins to take him apart. This is what happens when you break a Binding Vow.

    -

    Megumi dies in Shinjuku. Yuuji is thrown back in time to save him. Again, and again, and again.

    (Or: Yuuji says “I’ll save you, Fushiguro” and the universe says “bet.”)

    Summary

    "So you kissed him," Nobara says carefully, tapping her nails against her cup. "After ten years of pining, might I add. Then what happened?"

    Megumi opens his mouth, but no words come out. His voice sticks in his throat and chokes him. The silence stretches on; Nobara stops her tapping.

    "Megumi," she says slowly. "Then what happened?"

    -

    Nine days after his twenty-sixth birthday, Fushiguro Megumi steals a scarf, kisses his best friend, and ruins everything.

    (Or, alternatively: nine days after his sixteenth birthday, Itadori Yuuji lends a hoodie, rejects a mission, and ruins everything.)

    Summary

    All it takes to ruin the careful equilibrium of a non-relationship is a handmade cup, a pixelated screenshot, and Megumi's family.

    Summary

    For here he was, standing in front of the gate of his homeplace, but it was not the home he yearned for.

    “I thought you two were going to be forever,” was Megumi’s sheltered admission whispered close to his heart, beating itself bloody against the cage of Suguru’s ribs as the boy’s words unfolded a distant memory in the present, a pilgrim from the past wandering through the oceans of time to remind him of its buried existence.

    “Because lovers are travellers of eternity,” he had reassured Megumi once, the child half asleep on his chest after a nightmare, soothing murmurs of the tale Suguru had told to console him lingering in the quiet night.

    “I am sorry we let you down,” he uttered in the boy’s hair as the memory dissolved in the burdened air, leaving him with a decayed taste of hypocrisy in his mouth.

    [Or: a break up of his parental figures leaves a 15-year-old Megumi questioning his place in their lives.]
