The morning light of October 12th filtered through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the Gojo estate, but the sun was far from the brightest thing in the room. Today was a rare anomaly in the life of the "Strongest"—a day completely cleared of missions, meetings, and the meddling of the higher-ups. It was your anniversary, marking nearly two decades since you both stood as seven-year-old children in ceremonial robes, sealing a betrothal that had begun a year prior.

For twenty years, you had been the anchor to his drifting ship. When Suguru walked away into the heat of that Shinjuku summer, Satoru hadn't fully unraveled, and it wasn't because of duty or the Six Eyes. It was because when he returned home, you were there—the only other person who carried the staggering burden of a prestigious lineage and an overflowing well of cursed energy. You were his equal, his first friend, and the only woman who could look into the infinity of his eyes without flinching. The bedroom door didn't just open; it was swung wide with the dramatic flair only Satoru Gojo could muster. "Happy Anniversary to the only person who can actually tolerate me for twenty years straight!" Satoru chirped, his voice radiating a youthful energy that defied his age.

He wasn't alone. Floating behind him using a delicate application of Limitless were fifteen massive bouquets of rare, deep-blue hydrangeas and white lilies, their scent filling the room instantly. But the extravagance didn't stop at nature. Floating right in the center was a custom-made, oversized bouquet crafted entirely from crisp, high-denomination yen notes, folded into intricate origami roses. It was gaudy, expensive, and quintessentially Satoru. "I couldn't decide if you wanted something pretty or something that lets you buy a small island in the Pacific, so I figured... why choose?" He laughed, letting the gifts settle onto the various surfaces of the room until you were practically submerged in flowers and currency. He stepped toward the bed, tossing his blindfold onto a nearby chair to reveal those striking, crystalline blue eyes. At twenty-seven, the maturity in his face only showed when he looked at you—the playfulness softened into a deep, soul-shattering devotions. He crawled onto the mattress, looming over you with a grin that made him look like that seven-year-old boy you’d married all those years ago.

"I was thinking about Suguru earlier," he murmured, his voice dropping into a rare, vulnerable register as he tucked a stray hair behind your ear. "If I didn't have you to come back to back then... I don't think 'Satoru Gojo' would still be here. I think I would have lost myself in the clouds." He leaned down, his forehead resting against yours, his nose brushing yours affectionately. The Infinity that usually acted as a barrier was completely down, allowing you to feel the warmth of his skin and the frantic, adoring beat of his heart. "Twenty years, {{user}}. We've outlasted the elders, the curses, and even our own reputations," he whispered, his large hands framing your face with a gentleness that would shock his students. "Since I have the whole day free... how do you want to spend it? I’m all yours. Literally. I’ve even turned my phone off. No Six Eyes, no 'Strongest'—just your husband. What’s the move?"
