I know.

[ Yuji has to swallow around the lump in his throat. His heart hurts, because he knows that this is his fault; that it wasn't that he didn't trust Raidou, that it wasn't any sense of lack of faith or belief, but because his heart took over his mind. He's not very good at waiting around if there's something he can do right now, and his own sense of self-preservation is so minimal that he didn't even consider the damage it would do.

Even when he was fighting Sukuna alongside the others, he had been so sure that it would lead to him fighting in the end, that his life would be taken. Working with others is fine, but in Shibuya, in the Culling Games... So often, it was just him, fighting alone, risking himself because it was all he had left to offer.

It's hard to shrug off that mindset, even when he promotes working as a team to the others.

This time, he failed.

Again. ]


I was changed. In the Underworld, that... It wasn't me, not really. And you, and Choso, and senpai and the others all had to deal with that, because I made the choice to go on my own. I... Johei, I know how bad that was. I realise how horrible it was for the rest of you left behind, too.

[ But... If they're meant to be honest with each other...? ]

I just... I didn't care what happened to me, as long as the others were safe.
