    Summary

    Everyone is born with a small pale mark on their chest that turns into a tattoo of a flower bud made of simple lines on the day of their sixth birthday, each with their own colors. Belonging with that flower, every person is born without a tamana - the name of their soul - and it has to be bestowed upon them by their soul's parental figure(s). That name is something that the parent(s) chose with great care and meaning, making the tamana something similar to a title.

    Tsumiki grows up wishing for her tamana, but when her soulmark doesn't bloom, she decides that she doesn't need it to have a family.

    Megumi doesn't care about soulmarks. However he does regret the consequences that not having them brought.

    Satoru thinks soulmarks, soul names and the weight that people give them are pointless. Raising a pair of kids was 100% accidental and 100% his choice.

    Summary

    “I killed your dad." Satoru blurts.

    He's not sure exactly why —

    Well, he is sure why.

    Geto Suguru is dead at his hands. The night parade of a hundred demons has been thwarted, and victory is in the hands of Jujustu Sorcerers once more. Rika is freed of her curse, Okkotsu Yuuta's execution has been finally rescinded.

    But Geto Suguru is dead.

    And Gojo Satoru killed him.

    Megumi's ocean blue eyes had careened toward Satoru, standing in their living room with his soiled boots on and cuts on his knuckles because of Miguel's whip. He had a bowl in one hand, and a gallon of milk in the other. Satoru is sure he's going to eat cereal because why wouldn't he? He's home, in the home Satoru placed him in. The home he never got to have because Zen'in Toji was a piece of shit and so was Tsumiki's mother and because Satoru killed him—

    "Okay." Megumi says.

    Or, Satoru is a grieving idiot.

    Summary

    Naoya understands that the sin of the insignificant is the ignorance of true strength, so he trains with Satoru every chance he gets—as humiliating as it is.

    “Come on, Naoya-kun,” Satoru says, grinning wolfishly above him. After the koi pond, Naoya hasn’t had another chance to knock Satoru on his ass, and Satoru hasn’t let him forget it for a single moment. “Try to keep up!”

    “I am keeping up,” he says through gritted teeth. Naoya is at the top of his class, the pride of the Zen’in clan. To compare their skills isn’t fair.

    “Mhm, sure.” Satoru laughs like he doesn’t believe him. “Prove it, then!”

    And he will. One day, Naoya thinks. One day he’ll stand at the top and his name will be synonymous with Satoru’s, and everyone who matters will know who he is.

    Especially Satoru.

    Summary

    “C’mon, don’t cry. This isn’t like you. Where did my ‘Gumi go?”

    “Ask me when I don’t feel like crap and don’t call me that.”

    “Ah, there you are.” Satoru tries to smile as he finishes wiping away excess tears, unfazed by gross snot. He wipes his hand against Megumi’s shirt and then claps suddenly. “Come on, let’s get something to bring down that fever. I left the medicine on the counter. Let me go grab it—“

    Megumi throws himself into Satoru’s arms, wrapping his own tightly around his neck and shoulders, just shy of strangling him. “—for you,” he finishes. His hands hover with uncertainty over Megumi’s back because in all the time he's known him, Megumi's never done this.

    ---

    or Megumi is sick and Gojo has never been needed before.
