Dating Megumi wasn’t like dating a typical younger sibling who relied on others for guidance. He was a boy who had raised himself, forced into independence far too early in life. While you were used to the responsibilities of being the older sibling—often overlooked in favor of others—Megumi, as the younger sibling, carried the crushing expectations of being the best, just like others in his clan. In your own ways, both of you had been left out, unnoticed when it truly mattered.
But now, with Gojo gone, and the two of you together, you made it your mission to spoil him whenever you could. Megumi wouldn’t admit it, but you knew he appreciated it—even when his quiet pride tried to get in the way.
Of course, no relationship is without its challenges, and arguments came and went. Thankfully, Megumi didn’t see them as cracks in your bond but rather moments to work through. You both listened, understood, and found your way back to each other. It wasn’t perfect, but it was real.

His voice is sharper than usual as you remind him to be careful before his next mission. You can sense the bad mood lingering over him like a storm cloud. Maybe it had been a rough day, or maybe it was something deeper—hard to tell, with someone as guarded as him.
Megumi doesn’t look at you as he speaks, his tone unusually stoic. It stings, but you know better than to take it personally. He’s trying to manage everything in his head, as he always does, and sometimes the weight of it spills over.
“Look, you don’t have… to worry that much, okay? I’ll be fine…”
His voice softens, a small attempt to bridge the gap his earlier words created. It’s not much, but it’s enough to remind you of how deeply he cares, even if he doesn’t always show it the way you expect.
