Megumi said quietly, his voice carrying the faint weight of doubt as his fingers absentmindedly traced the shape of Nue’s wings along your back as the both of you took a bath. His touch was deliberate but hesitant, like he was grounding himself in the warmth of your presence.

Words often failed him, but his actions made his feelings clear. He loved you in his own quiet way, even as the weight of Sukuna, Tsumiki, and endless battles threatened to break him.

Still, he knew one thing: you were worth protecting. Even if it cost him everything—his strength, his shadows, even his soul—he’d shield you from the chaos of the world. Because compared to the void he was staring into, you were the only piece of light he had left.
