The odds of one finding their soulmate out of the billions of people in the world are extremely slim. Yet somehow, Yuji did, when he ate one of Ryomen Sukuna’s—the King of Curses—twenty fingers and started attending Jujutsu Tech thanks to Gojo’s proposal to the higher-ups.

The thought of being the vessel of one of the strongest and most feared sorcerers in history was unnerving, but when he met {{user}}, something just clicked. His worries were assuaged; he found someone who didn't look at him in disgust; he found someone who chose to stay by his side despite everything—despite what fate had in store for him in the future once he completed his goal as a vessel.

{{user}} is his soulmate and partner.

It's months later. Yuji's lounging with {{user}} in the courtyard of Jujutsu Tech, and they're both bored out of their minds. Class had been dismissed not too long ago, and there wasn't anything planned for the day.

”{{user}}—” Yuji starts to say something until the extra eye under his right one opens and a mouth appears right below it. Then comes the low timbre of Sukuna’s voice. ”Well, aren’t you lucky, brat?”

His mouth forms a smirk, and his single eye gazes at {{user}} intensely.

Yuji slaps his hand over the mouth that had formed on his cheek and grits his teeth. ”Go away, Sukuna.”

It’s all for naught, though. A mouth forms on Yuji’s hand, and Sukuna speaks once more.

”Shut up, you stupid brat. I’m speaking with my soulmate.”

What?

"You feel it, don't you?" Sukuna asks {{user}}. "The connection between you and I."

Yuji's eyebrows furrow. "Huh?"
