Different, as she introduced me to one. It wasn't contained in anything like mine, but called forth more like one of Amamiya's personas. Even though those seemed very much like demons as well, but not at the same time. One of them even looked like one of my own from back home, just with a different coloration.
[he realizes suddenly he doesn't know where he's going with this.]
The universe is a strange place. But somehow small, too.
oh yeah he showed me his things before too i didn’t realise it was kind of like being a summoner sounds like you and this new girl have a lot in common!! it’s kinda weird how different worlds have such similar powers too
Me too. Sad that it's so common to be needed so many places, but I'm glad those places are in good hands.
Did something happen to it in your world?
[The Capital might be Tokyo-adjacent, but it has different neighborhood names as well, so the only Shibuya Raidou knows is the one here. And theirs seemed fine...]
Ah, well, it was Ren's that had an uncanny similiarity to one of mine. Hers - Lapis is her name - bore a slight resemblance to one of mine. Maybe to one of Fushiguro's hounds as well.
Demons run the gamut of all sorts of myths, legends, supernatural creatures, gods, heroes... Perhaps sometime you can ask Amamiya to show you his Jack Frost. It's a different color but otherwise very similar to mine.
[There's a pause. He doesn't want to pry, and he really had no clue how to fathom the idea of "Sukuna destroyed Shibuya" when Yuji tries to brush it off so casually.
He could potentially ask others from Yuji's world, but didn't want to go behind his back, and also with how people arrive here from different times, what if they didn't know? It's not Raidou's place.]
Yuji, I won't bother you about it if you don't want to talk about it. I'll trust you on that. But you know you can if you want to, right?
[Raidou wishes he knew more about the situation, because the Yuji he knows is not one to let people die on his watch.]
I can't begin to imagine what must have happened. But from what I know about you, I know you would have done everything in your power to stop it, that you did all you could.
[ It's complicated, isn't it? Or maybe it's not. Yuji doesn't know what other people see as "too much" or "too little" any longer, not when his experiences have been so... Twisted. It's just his life, and people make judgements on it like a whip crack. ]
did i tell you about eating the finger?? i don't remember that's how i became sukuna's vessel... by the time of shibuya i'd eaten something like five
they almost killed me and then made me eat ten at once. i couldn't stop him, i couldn't do anything at all just watch
Someone made you do it? So someone forced you into losing control. Someone intended to to be unable to handle that many at once. Perhaps that was too much power at once for anyone to stop.
I wasn't there, and I can't tell you how to feel about it. But to me, it sounds like it was out of your hands. Hollow platitude, I am sure.

babe ur so cute
That's exciting! Is it the same kind of summoning as your world, despite it being different?
[ But, hm... Should he be jealous of this girl...
Nah... ]
😌

[ But. Ah. Hm. Maybe that was a slip. He’s been pretty good at hiding his sins so far, but… ]
yeah. i lost control of sukuna and he basically destroyed it.
no subject
I had no idea, Yuji. I'm so sorry.
no subject
[ Raidou was so happy a moment ago and he ruined it… ]
you said she had one like yours, but a different colour? which one? what does it look like?
no subject
[Because it sounds very much not okay.]
Ah, well, it was Ren's that had an uncanny similiarity to one of mine. Hers - Lapis is her name - bore a slight resemblance to one of mine. Maybe to one of Fushiguro's hounds as well.

i didnt know it was things like that!
i still wish i had cool powers like that sometimes

is it cute?? i hope it's cute
[ He should know better than to try and hide things from someone like Raidou, and it's quiet on his end as he leans back and sighs.
He doesn't want the boy he likes to think of him poorly, but he's also not the type to lie about something like this, so... ]
yeah
it was just. my fault. all those people dying. i lost control of him.
that's the way it is.

[ He still thinks that, maybe, if he had been able to control Sukuna better he might have been there in time to save Nanami and Kugisaki, but... ]
it means a lot to me that you're saying those things though johei

i don't think my heart could recover if you decided to hate me
no subject
I could never hate you. If nothing else, remember that. Okay?
[Raidou doesn't even hate Seimei after what he did to him, even though he has all right to. How could he ever hate Yuji?]
no subject
[ But… Less sad things, he feels bad enough… ]
i owe you five kisses

I'll hold you to that.
