[ they do not think gojo is going to make school lunches. they seem hesitant to talk about this, but since it is PARENT TO PARENT(? THEY ARE BOTH YOUNG) communication. ]
...Stupidly strong. But innocent. It's a dangerous combination, so he's staying with people who will put him on the right path.
[ you ever meet a guy who is so good at everything that he's annoying... but i want one of gojo's packed lunches ]
Yes. [ they seem reluctant to elaborate any further. ] I wish the way the world worked meant that strength would keep him safe. But it takes more than that.
[ this is too self-indulgently open though so that's enough of that. ]
[ why must he be potentially good at everything i don't like it... maybe if i get to die and there's food in the gy ]
Strong and naive really is a scary combo. The world's harsh and cruel. [ It is what it is. He starts pondering guardianship sincerely. ] Can't shield him from that if you want him to grow, too. I'm wondering what kind of balance—if there's a perfect ratio.
Well, even before I killed his dad, he and his sister had been taking care of themselves for a good amount of time. Soooo self-sufficient? Independent? Looks out for his own. In terms of potential, he can become one of the strongest in our society.
[ Is Gojo a thoughtful dad... is this why spoon loves him so ]
...Right. It is harsh. Sheltering anything too much leaves them vulnerable to the slightest infection later. Letting someone get hurt too much means they won't thrive. It's complicated.
[ Having someone to talk about parenthood is weird, though Gojo being a murderer is kind of weird. ]
Doesn't surprise me. People tend to leave geniuses alone. They get scared—or feel inferior. Why'd you kill his dad?
[ listen................... expedite growth for adults. Nehan's response has him laughing! He understands. ]
Exactly. His target was a middle school girl, by the way. [ Purposely makes Toji seem like the worst man in the world because he has a grudge. ] He didn't request anything outright, just told me he was selling his kid back to his estranged clan.

Yeah! I'm going to make them school lunches.
[ he will forget ]
What's yours like?
no subject
How cute.

He blinks a couple of times. Baby Mugen... ]
I wouldn't say Megumi is innocent, but... Yours is strong, too?
no subject
Yes. [ they seem reluctant to elaborate any further. ] I wish the way the world worked meant that strength would keep him safe. But it takes more than that.
[ this is too self-indulgently open though so that's enough of that. ]
...What is Megumi like.

no subject
Yeah... If you ever figure that out, you should share me your notes.
[ Simply, ]
He attacked me first.
no subject
In the next few months? I'm not sure I'll have unlocked the secrets of guardianship that quickly.
[ almost said with a sense of humor. ]
Anyway, why would someone do that.
no subject
You never know. A big event could unlock all the answers for you. [ That's just trauma. ] He was a hired assassin and I was protecting his target.
no subject
No thanks. Huge, eye-opening truths don't usually come peacefully. Maybe this is something better left learning as you go.
[ anyway... ]
Fair enough reason to kill him. [ IS IT ] Surprised you honored his request in that case.
no subject

Maybe Megumi and your kid would get along!
no subject
...I see.
[ their voice is pulled thin enough to maybe hint at some disdain. ]
Maybe they would. I hope this Megumi doesn't take after his father too much.
no subject
Naw. Actually, I'm worried he might to be soft inside, so he'd play nice. [ ... ] Ever met a five year-old who can cook?
no subject
...I have. It's unfortunate.
[ no one that age should be responsible for cooking for themselves. ]
What sort of life was he living...? I guess I should ask how he is now, as well. [ are you a good dad, gojo ]
