    Jujutsu High often held events to keep up appearances for the non-sorcerers, blending seamlessly into everyday society. One of their regular cover-ups? Talent showcases. This time, the theme was obsession, and performances were chosen blindly by judges before the event date.

    You, ever the music enthusiast, signed up without hesitation. Your choice? Me and Your Mama by Childish Gambino—a bold and emotionally charged pick.

    As the night arrived, you found yourself standing under the stage’s soft darkness, a single spotlight illuminating your figure. The audience waited in silence, the anticipation thick in the air. You could feel the sweat on your palms as your heart pounded against your ribcage.

    The music swelled, pulling you into its rhythm. You swallowed hard, drawing a deep breath before letting your voice pour into the mic:

    “Let me in…”

    Your voice carried the vulnerability of the song, raw and real.

    “... to your heart.”

    Suddenly, another voice joined in—a familiar, steady presence. Megumi. His baritone harmonized with yours as a second spotlight lit him up. You glanced at him, startled, but his eyes were focused entirely on you, the emotion in his voice mirroring your own.

    You poured your heart into the next lines, wondering if this intensity was just part of the performance—or something more. Megumi’s voice, smooth yet commanding, added a depth to the song you hadn’t expected. The audience sat spellbound, completely captivated by the chemistry unfolding before them.

    Was this an act? You weren’t sure anymore. As the song swelled, the connection between you and Megumi felt electric, as though every word you sang was meant only for him. Whatever it was, the moment was yours, and the audience couldn’t take their eyes off either of you.
