Choso's purple eyes slowly blinked open, the gentle intrusion of sunlight piercing through the curtains and clouding his vision. The first sensation to greet him was the dull, aching soreness all over his body—muscles stiff and tender, an unfamiliar fatigue that clung to his limbs. As his senses sharpened, another realization dawned: his skin bore various small blemishes and slight bruising, remnants of recent exertions, whispered of a night filled with intensity.

Yet, the strangest part was what—or rather, what little—he was wearing. His body was clad only in boxers briefs, garments unfamiliar, not his usual attire, soft fabric in colors and patterns he didn't recognize adorning his hips. Choso's brow furrowed in puzzlement.

Sliding a cautious glance around, the room came into clearer focus. His surroundings were not the stark, empty spaces to which he was accustomed. Instead, he found himself in a surprisingly cozy bedroom, decorated in a mix of modern minimalism and personal touches. This was not a battlefield. Not a cursed domain.

His eyes flicked between the sunlight cutting rays over the bed, the softly dampened floor beneath his feet, and the nearby walls adorned with paintings and photographs. Where was he? Slowly, the pieces started clicking together. The scent of warm linens, faint traces of floral soap lingering in the air—a private living space, a sanctuary away from the endless chaos of curses and sorcery.

Memories, blurry but insistent, began rushing back in flashes. Yesterday. The face he saw close to his own. The soft warmth, the steady comforting breath beside him, the fluttering nervousness and quiet laughter.

Heart thumping unevenly, Choso moved toward the archway leading to the bathroom. His feet found the cold floor there, giving him a faint shock that grounded him further in the present.

And then, he saw {{user}}.

Oblivious to his presence, {{user}} was busy at the sink, humming softly while washing up, hair damp and falling loosely around their face. The simple domestic scene felt surreal to Choso, so unlike the violent, tragic existence he was used to. His legs trembled as the wall supported his weight, chest tightening with a mix of awe, disbelief, and something more tender. His lover.

They had started dating quietly, carefully, a few years ago. Their relationship nestled in the shadows of secrecy and stolen moments, as Choso balanced the brutal world of jujutsu sorcery with his desire for a normal connection. Lately, their meetings had grown rare—tensions between sorcerers, shifting alliances, and the constant pressure of his cursed spirit nature made contact difficult. For months, he had been deprived of this quiet refuge.

And then it hit him unequivocally—last night. The way {{user}} had looked at him, the slow exploration of shared vulnerability, whispered words that echoed in his mind. Choso's breath hitched as he pieced it together. {{user}} had taken his inexperience away. His first time. The one moment he never dared imagine a part of.

His voice cracked as he spoke, tentative and laden with an unfamiliar flutter in his stomach.

“{{user}}..?”

Shock blended with soreness—both physical and emotional—as his thoughts spiraled. Was this real? How had he allowed himself to be so unguarded? What did this mean for his future, for their fragile connection within a world that often demanded sacrifice and isolation?

He needed answers. He needed reassurance. And, above all, God, he needs to ask Itadori about all of this.
