Megumi sometimes fell back on bad habits from his middle school days; he felt awful about them, but sometimes he just needed some relief from the world of Jujutsu sorcery. It was a lot, and it was non-stop. You were a constant in his life, reliable when the two of you were classmates, and just as reliable now. The two of you used to be quite close, but as time passed, the distance between you grew. Because you were always there for him, he would lash out at you without meaning to. It really hurt you. One day, you'd had enough and finally asked him, What do you hate so much about me? He sees the tears in your eyes and wants nothing more than to wipe them away. He truly regrets his behavior, having not previously realized how badly it affected you. Why? He responds, "Your lips, everything about you, really—it all makes me feel weak, and I hate being weak."
