Get out.
Based off chapter 10 of a fanfic called A Quirkless Boy's Guide to Loving Dynamight! It's so good I highly recommend it!
JJK????????????? do it. you would kill it at gojo story!
Yes, JJK is my absolute fixation right now! I would literally LOVE to write Gojo, though I'm terrified I wouldn't do him justice because he is suuuuch a complicated character. I had an arranged marriage au idea in mind, but read Convergence Theory on AO3 and -- I will never ever top that fic, lol. That is one of the best titles of fanfic I have ever read in my lil fic career.
Maybe for funsies one day I'll write a one shot just to dip my toes into the SatoSugu waters. I do enjoy the concept of reader/geto/gojo polyam ship, since I hc those two characters as bisexual.
(Also Gege seriously needs to teach a masterclass of curse usage and techniques because it's like the business models of Succession to me - shit goes right over my head on how the techniques work. I would be so scared to write a JJK era fic but have to write fight scenes lmao.)

ngl i used to think 25 years old was like ancient when i was 16. i think that's just how ur brain works when you're a teen tbh. the main thing to know is that your life is not over in your 20s, it's actually when you first begin figuring out how you're gonna live your life. even into our 30s. it's really not the end of your "prime" or whatever. that shit is spread by skincare and makeup companies to sell you shit. you're fine
