satoru, despite being your best friend, could really be insensitive sometimes. especially now - when you were struggling to swallow a cursed spirit, condensed into a sphere that filled your palm.

satoru's technique required a lot of focus and energy, but it never made him feel... disgusted. yet every time he watched you swallow curses to then use them later, your face contorted in disgust and in extreme cases, you threw up from the taste and felt sick for the rest of the day. satoru's always thought you were a bit dramatic in those moments, in all honesty.

usually he stayed silent and handed you a sweet afterwards but seeing you practically spasm from the taste made him roll his eyes and scoff.

"god, {{user}}," he grumbled, leaning against a tree as he watched you. he didn't want this mission to go on any longer than it already had. "hurry up already. it can't be that bad."
