Something that really got to me about the Salt Lake Crew scenes so far is that they don't feel like friends. Yeah sure, they have some issues, mainly the Love Triangle Trio, but they are longtime friends. They are Loyal to each other above all else rn. They were in this decision to come after Joel together, even if Abby was the main motivator. Abby didn't convince them to help out of hierarchy or fear of her, but because they wanted to. Because they cared about her and what they all lost. She doesn't order them around as if they're subservient.
Without something similar to Owen and Abby's playful-then-difficult conversation, we don't get a feel for them as people. All the righteous justifications in the world mean nothing for swaying an audience if it's isolated; just words from a strange and hateful mouth.

Actually. Looking at the chronology. The last time Gideon and Harrow talked alone before the pool scene, Gideon accused Harrow of being a jealous creep for telling her to stay away from Dulcinea.
A whole lot of stupifying things happened in between, but really, it wouldn't be surprising if her first panicked reaction to Harrow disrobing was to think Harrow was making a move on her. Relationship definitely hurtling toward something.

you ever just. become overwhelmed by a sudden out-of-nowhere wave of tenderness and affection and longing for reconnection directed towards someone to whom you no longer speak for Very Good Reasons
#‘out of nowhere’ she says like she hasn’t been doing a lot of reading/thinking recently about various tragic messy breakups#and the later regrets of the parties involved#anyway. tell me not to text her#it’s been over two years since the last time we talked… absolutely no reason to break that streak now. lord give me strength#she was really fucking mean to me! like objectively intentionally unwarrantedly cruel! it ruined an entire year of my life#and fundamentally changed me as a person on a deep level! there’s a lot of things i used to like about myself that i don’t think i’m ever#going to get back#and yet every once in a while we have to do the whole ‘maybe i could make things right’ song and dance 😔#the thing is most of the time i’m not even really angry with her anymore like enough time has passed since all the shit went down that#really i just sort of look at her behavior and feel sad. both because of the impact on me but also because of the ‘that’s really how you#felt you needed to act towards someone who cared about you? you couldn’t have just expressed your feelings in an honest and productive way#instead of just lashing out in the cruelest possible way and ruining the entire relationship beyond hope of repair?’#and i feel bad and sorry that it went that way and honestly i kind of pity her and hope she’s gotten some of her shit worked out#so i’m not like. actively pissed off at her anymore. but also i can’t think about her without thinking about the worst year of my life so 🙃#i don’t actually feel that trying to reopen that door would be very healthy for me at least#we did try a Reconciliation of sorts a couple of months after the initial falling-out and while it was kind of helpful for me in that she#like. apologized lmao. and affirmed that i wasn’t crazy and she did in fact On Purpose say the most hurtful things she possibly could have#said to me given the information she had at her disposal. and that i really had not done anything to her that could warrant that. etc.#it also left a sour enough taste in my mouth that i just don’t see a future where the two of us spending time together is enjoyable for me#and yet… the regret will always live inside me i think. maybe if i were a stronger person…#caseyposting

If you can’t tell I uh. I finished disco elysium last night so. My apologies for the spam except not cause it’s Very good
#may go back and play it again but definitely should not right now#I stayed up till 6 two days in a row playing this game it’s a problem#but god. it’s so good#the entire game is about grief. mourning and how we lose ourselves in the past#Harry is a wonderful piece of shit#Kim is. I mean. jesus cheist Kim kitsuragi#I think Kim kitsuragi gave me a praise kink#klassje is so weirdly relatable in a way I can’t explain#I love the concept of the pale#I love cuno. yeah that’s right I love cuno#genuinely the best representation of a 12 year old I’ve ever seen#I work with kids and just. yeah that’s what it’s like#kids only lash out like that when they’ve gone through something#and just being able to suss out this kids gentle and creative and vulnerable side#and like Harry du bois should not be his father figure but the fact that you can help at all#that you can make yourself cool in his eyes and then affirm his interests#I will adopt cuno. and I will buy him so many bugs and give him uncomplicated attachments to a caregiver#god it’s such a good game#I think the only thing that bothered me was that you couldn’t hold a belief without also being incredibly violent#the only nonviolent version of things was centrism and I’m just like#I dunno man I think maybe we could socialize the government without murder#but I also get that that’s not what the game is ABOUT#so more of a minor thing for me where I’m just like. stop calling me a centrist cause I picked the one option that was like#‘maybe we shouldn’t genocide…anybody’#like there’s no option to be like ‘hey the union is a net good and their goals are admirable but maybe they shouldn’t be a mob???’#but again I get that the game is about the fact that that CANT happen#because the point of the game is that everyone is so stuck in the past that they can’t move forward to the future#there was a violent monarchy and a violent revolution and a violent takeover by foreign powers#so they can’t conceive of a nonviolent mode of change. I mean the inciting incident is LITERALLY a holdover of the war killing someone#like BLATANTLY the past haunting the narrative both sociopolitically and personally with dora

I don't think a lot of the fandom really understands the reality of being mentally ill in the way John is. He doesn't just have something that is decently manageable with medication and intermittent talk therapy. At any point, any moment, he can just have a lapse of judgement and say or do something harmful, either to himself or others. It's not something that will just go away with time or doctors.
John genuinely doesn't understand most people's sense of ethics and morals, and he wont suddenly understand them on drugs, or after being talked to about it for the millionth time.
His polite and friendly behavior is behavior that he tailor suited to get him into a position he wants. He's nice because it gets him things. He cares about others because they impress him personally, or can, again, get him things.
John is able to and will hurt people without even thinking about it because it's possible for him to just forget to put on the mask of his "correct behavior" self, due to distraction, stress, or even just complete lack of care at the moment. He chooses to be nice, and if he's not fully aware of himself he will usually be a bit nasty as the default.

had a dream where i was only nominally in charge of the narrative. it was my dream but some characters would punish me for it. as the dream went on more and more people i knew in real life, people i didn’t “create” left the story as other characters bled into it. it was still a dream so it’s not like i had any real control to begin with. woah .the consequences.

Bitches be fighting (it’s the head children 😘☺️)
#just pav things#We love it when they start yelling at each other 😌#Though there’s only really a select few that yell in this sort of accusatory way and point fingers and I’m thinking of Idyllia!#I did another take on the end of arc 2. Or maybe it’s a continuation of the existing developments#I don’t think she would take very kindly to the two boys having their mini-argument right in front of her (who would?)#And she would ESPECIALLY not take kindly to Dism calling Inigo a. y’know. murderer ✨🌈#I think she has some inner empathy towards Inigo even if she doesn’t say it yet (they both know they share similar feelings towards Archie)#They both feel like they failed Archie and wear that on their shoulders (albeit in complementary ways)#Of course this is Arc 2 and they’re still offput by each other. it’s uncomfortable to look at someone else and see yourself.#So she would slap Dism for his callousness :))) and then berate them both for their self-absorbed nature#Very in line with how she yells at Archie in Arc 3 for much the same thing :3#She perceives it as cowardice in both situations ✨ Dism being unable to admit he made a mistake and Archie unable to get over himself#and finally reunite with his brother instead of stringing things along#She gets angry because she dislikes that quality in herself :3#Anyways it’s fun to see how the head children react when they’re upset ❤️#Dism loses all tact and will say anything that comes to his mind. Very snide in his wording.#He loses his inhibitions and lets his shadow side come out to say what he ‘really’ thinks about others#Inigo who delicately holds himself together 24/7 struggles under duress and becomes irrational and hysterical#Jumps to conclusions WAY too quickly#Archie who hates himself more than anything is able to bear pain without lashing out#He directs his pain inward. He was never one for fighting.#Cynthia becomes very quiet and teary and unsure of herself. A stark contrast to her normal demeanour ✨#And as for Archie’s kids. Theon becomes very aggressive and physical (violence is the answer >:3)#Luna would just burst into tears if you made her upset :(#And Ewan takes half of Dism’s approach and half of Theon’s#Which honestly explains why he gets into so many scrapes. 0 conflict resolution skills ✨✨✨✨

you're bit too possessive toward your nerdྀི
the moment you spot them through the glass wall of the library study room, something primal inside you snaps.
your nerd. your sweet, tall, stuttering nerd.
and some other girl leaning all over him. all giggles and twirls of her stupid hair, looking up at him like he hung the stars. you can practically see the way her fingers brush “innocently” against his forearm. and gojo—this sweet, beautiful idiot gojo. he's just smiling, shyly pushing his glasses up the bridge of his nose, completely, utterly oblivious of the advances the girl is making.
you see red. not the cute, flirty kind of jealous. no. 
you see murder.
by the time you stomp into the study room, he lights up the second he sees you—like a golden retriever seeing its favorite person. “babyy!” he blurts, half-standing so fast he nearly knocks over the chair. his knees bang the table. his pen scatter. he's flushed pink already, hands fidgeting with the hem of his stupid neat sweater, beaming at you like you're the sun itself.
meanwhile, the girl beside him falters, confused as hell when you swoop in, grab a fistful of his collar and yank him down into a messy kiss—a possessive and mean one, kissing him like you're marking him, like you're making a fucking declaration.
gojo gasps against your mouth, stunned, but immediately melts, tilting his head to give you more. he kisses back with desperate little noises, afraid if he doesn't, you'll change your mind and leave. when you pull back, he's breathless, blinking at you all dazed and drunk, glasses slipping halway down his nose. “i missed you…” he whispers.
you don't answer him, to focusing on the other girl. staring straight at her awkward form peeking up her books, face pale. you tilt your head and smile—sharp, unfriendly, a predator showing teeth. she scurries away without a word.
gojo blinks between you and the empty chair, confusion pinching his brows. “she…left? we didn't end the explanations—”
you grab his jaw in one hand, squeezing his cheeks until his lips squish pouty. “you,” you hiss, leaning so close your breath fans his pink ears, “are so fucking stupid, satoru.” his wide, panicked eyes blink down at you. “i-i am?” he stutters, looking on the verge of tears just because you're mad at him. “i-i didn't even—i mean…i was j-just doing the private lesson…i-i told you about it!” he babbles, desperate. not understanding a thing.
you shake his head a little by the jaw, making his glasses slip down worse. “yeah, yeah. i agreed on a private lesson." you snarl, voice dripping poison-sweet. "not private fucking sex.” you yank his wrist, dragging him out of the little study room, ignoring the curious heads turning to you. 
satoru stumbles after you, tripping over his own feet—over himself just to keep up. “y-you're mad,” he whines, almost breathless, cheeks burning red. “w-what did i…i didn't—”
his voice gets smaller when you spin around, shoving him back hard against the nearest wall. his back thuds against the cold surface, and he freezes up, chest heaving. “you really don't get it, huh?” 
that dumb, pretty face of his—lips pink from your previous kiss and from him nervously chewing them, his glasses crooked, his hair all messed up—god, you could eat him alive. “you let that clingy bitch touch you like that?” you spit. “smile at her like that? let her giggle and bat her lashes like you didn't already have someone who should be the only thing you look at??”
satoru is practically vibrating in place, like a kicked puppy. his Adam's apple bobs hard when he swallows. “i-i didn't notice!” he chokes out. “i swear, angel, i didn't! i-i didn't even l-look at her. .” your nails scrape up his chest through his hoodie, making him whimper. “you're mine, aren't you, 'toru?” he nods so fast you think he might give himself whiplash. “y-yes!! yours! of c-course, only yours!”
your hand snakes lower, palming the half-chub tenting his sweats. poor thing :( so quick to get hard just from yelling at him. “you're lucky you're cute,” you snap, but your heart is hammering at how real the panic was in his voice. 
you squeeze him through the fabric. his hips jolt into your hand with a pathetic little gasp. you watch his pretty white lashes flutter, poor boy was genuinely confused why you're so pissed—poor sweet nerd who only ever wanted you :((
you click your tongue. “my pretty nerd,” you mock sweetly, squeezing his cock harder through his pants, making his knees buckle. “getting hard just ‘cause i’m scolding you? bet you'd cum just from me slapping your face.” 
“i-i could! i would, i-if that's what y-you—ah!—want,” his mouth works uselessly searching for words, his brain short-circuiting because your hand's still lazily stroking him through his sweats. you lean up, biting his jaw hard enough to make him whines. 
"you’re gonna make it up to me," you murmur against his skin, voice syrupy sweet. "gonna let me use you however I want. gonna be a good boy for me, huh, satoru?" he was towering over you but he was so, so submissive.
he nods so fast again his glasses damn near fall off. "a-anything," he breathes. "please. please let me—lemme be good—i'll be so good, promise!"

(Spoken as someone who is in unfortunate possession of a lot of South Park knowledge from 2011) The whole South Park v. Trump thing is hilariously coherent, to me, both in it happening and in MAGA acting like this is a betrayal they could not possibly have seen coming.
The most important thing to understand about South Park is its identity does not align with any one political group. Its identity is a rabid hatred of censorship.
South Park, at the end of the day, wants to line up a bunch of idiots representing all sides and say Absolutely Anything about them. The show itself strikes a "Caring is Cringe" Enlightened Centrism by making sure you see that everyone who cares on either side is an idiot.
But. And this is important too: They do it in a way that can honeypot just about anyone into thinking they're the ones being agreed with.
This is because the bullet spray of mockery hits all targets. And you can, without much stretch, assign a character who is probably in the right, right? The show creators thought so too, right? This character is the least idiot.
So many plots are structured around Kyle (one of the main boys, the progressive one) taking some stance of compassion and anger over a social issue, to then be absolutely dicked around by Cartman (who needs no introduction.)
And it's actually so very easy to have two people watch the same episode and have one person conclude "Obviously Kyle was in the right. And he's getting dicked around by Cartman who sucks." while the other person concludes "Hahaha stupid Kyle with his bleeding-heart liberal BS. Cartman is so funny and awesome."
If Kyle says "I support the environment" and then spends the whole episode getting tormented for it: it's because this is righteous narrative comeuppance for a bleeding-heart idiot stance, or this is actually representing the tortured reality of being the only smart compassionate person in a world of cruel idiots. It's both. It's neither. It's clown nose honking.
Everyone is an idiot. Every side is full of idiots. So when an idiot character says, "I support gay rights", the audience can say either "South Park said gay rights!" or "South Park made fun of the idiot who said 'Gay rights'." with equal conviction.
Now--with no real political convictions and beliefs--South Park does have plenty of episodes that assign a winner. They will shoot down whoever they find most annoying. And they will shoot down whoever is trying to tell them what they can and cannot say.
And, while this is where my knowledge is about ~14 years out of date, I'm going to make the safe assumption that "You can't say that, because Woke" has been a constant target of the last maybe half-decade.
Okay, now with that context:
It is entirely unsurprising of me to think South Park has (or had) an enormous swath of alt-right, conservative, MAGA fans who think South Park is their show. They can watch every politically non-committal episode and say "Cartman is so cool and awesome. Kyle is a whiny little bitch." And they can watch every committal "We hate Woke for telling us what we can't say" episode, and happily conclude South Park is on their side.
But back to the thesis: South Park hates censorship. South Park hates censorship so much more than they could possibly care about any one political party.
And, the fact that Trump is lashing out with threats, blackmail, and every political cudgel he has to make people stop talking--that's already going to get you on South Park's shitlist.
But it got so much worse: because a sister-show on South Park's network (The Colbert Show) is being canceled as an appeasement to Trump. By the network hosting both IPs.
And Canceling a show for saying something politically unsavory is the worst possible offense, according to South Park.
There is no worse sin.
I hope South Park spends the entire season biting Trump's dick off.

POWER PLAY - GOJO SATORU
Tumblr media
summary. Gojo Satoru’s used to getting everything he wants—until his company hires you, the shy assistant who’s all glitter, gloss and charm. But the more he tries to stay professional, the harder it gets… in more ways than one.
word count. 9.3k (not 10k wow)
content. mdni fem!bimbo! reader, ceo! gojo, gojo crashing out for multiple reasons, down bad simp gojo, heavy tension, teasing, jealousy, pet names, smut, multiple scenes, fingering, oral (m and f rec.), p in v, office sex, desk sex, praise, creampie, slight overstim, aftercare
author's note. inspired by this by my leslover @cairoverse i'm sorry this took so long ml </3
Tumblr media
The wine’s expensive, but not because he’s trying to impress her.
He just likes the taste.
The restaurant is sleek, candlelit, with soft jazz humming in the background. It’s the kind of place that whispers luxury, not screams it — understated elegance, a lot like his watch. Or his suit. Or the car he pulled up in.
The girl across from him is… nice. Pretty in that polished, social-media kind of way. Knows which fork to use, laughs at the right moments, has a thousand-watt smile and legs he noticed the second she slid into the booth.
For the first time in a long time, Gojo thinks: maybe.
Maybe this could go somewhere.
She sips her wine, sets the glass down, and leans in just enough for the scent of vanilla to drift his way. Her voice is smooth, easy. “So, what’s it like, running an empire?”
He smiles, a little self-deprecating. “Exhausting.”
She laughs. “Bet it pays well, though.”
A harmless joke, maybe. But something cold flickers at the edge of his ribs.
He hums, brushing it off.
But then she tilts her head, lashes fluttering just so. “I mean… you must be, like, what? Eight figures? Nine?”
There it is.
His smile doesn’t falter, but something in his chest withers.
He takes a slow sip of his wine. Lets the silence stretch for a beat too long.
Eight figures. Nine.
She’s still looking at him, expectant. Playful.
He should be used to this by now. Hell, he is. But it still stings. Every damn time.
“I stopped counting,” he says lightly, setting his glass down.
She laughs again, tossing her hair over her shoulder. “That’s such a rich guy answer.”
And just like that, the candlelight feels too warm, the wine too bitter. The space between them grows miles wide.
Gojo leans back in his seat, fingers drumming lightly on the tablecloth. He already knows there won’t be a second date. No nightcap. No exchanged texts or cheeky goodnights.
And when he finally slips into the backseat of his car an hour later, staring blankly out the tinted window at the blur of city lights, a single thought loops in his head like a broken record:
Maybe this just isn’t in the cards for me.
Not the connection. Not the late-night calls. Not the stupid domestic shit he secretly wants — tangled legs on a couch, coffee in chipped mugs, someone who sees him.
He huffs a soft laugh, more bitter than amused.
Gojo Satoru has everything.
And somehow, he feels like he has nothing.
-
“What did you just say?”
Gojo doesn’t raise his voice. He doesn’t need to. The sheer weight behind the words is enough to make the room still.
Nanami adjusts his glasses, like he hasn’t just dropped a nuclear bomb in the middle of Gojo’s morning.
“The quarterly reports,” he repeats flatly, “were emailed to Zenin Holdings.”
A pause.
“And the Osaka merger documents,” he adds. “Along with internal notes referring to their CEO as—” he consults his tablet, “—��an off-brand Ken doll.’”
Gojo presses a hand to his temple, like he’s physically holding in the migraine.
“Who?” he grits out.
Nanami doesn’t blink. “The new recruit.”
Another silence stretches.
Then Gojo lowers his hand. “Bring them to my office.”
Nanami nods once, and without another word, leaves the room.
-
You’re not sure why you were summoned.
You clutch your little pastel folder to your chest like it might protect you, knees squeezed together as you sit—perch, really—on the plush chair outside the glass doors of the executive office.
The receptionist gave you a look. You’re not sure what kind of look. It felt kind of judge-y. Or maybe pitying?
Then, the doors open.
“You can go in,” Nanami says, voice flat as ever.
You blink up at him, eyes wide. “Oh! Okay. Um. Am I—” You pause, then smile nervously. “Am I in trouble?”
He doesn’t answer.
That’s fine. Totally fine.
You step into the office with careful little steps, the kind of walk that says please don’t fire me before I finish paying off my student loans.
Inside, the man behind the desk looks up.
White hair. Stupidly pretty face. Cerulean eyes that flick over you like you’re a puzzle that somehow assembled itself upside-down.
He’s not smiling.
You don’t meet his eyes—not for more than a second—just dip your head as you approach his desk.
“I—um. I was told to… to report here?”
Your voice is so quiet he almost misses it.
He leans back in his chair, elbow on the armrest, thumb brushing his jaw. “You’re the new recruit?”
You nod once, too fast. “Y-Yes. I mean, I think so. That’s what Mr. Nanami said, at least. He said—um, he said this is my new position now.”
You step fully into the office, holding a pink folder like it might bite you. You’re wearing a cream sweater that looks two sizes too soft and a plaid skirt that’s about four inches too short for HR standards. Your ID badge is flipped backward. Your heels click awkwardly against the tile.
And he suddenly understands how people end up doing very, very stupid things for women.
You stand there, shifting your weight from one heel to the other, clutching your folder like it’s a lifeline.
“And you are…?”
You whisper your name so faintly he has to repeat it aloud just to be sure.
“Right.” He pauses. “Well, take a seat.”
You hesitate for a second too long before perching on the very edge of the chair across from him—back stiff, eyes focused on the edge of his desk.
Gojo leans back in his chair. He’s quiet for a beat too long.
Then “So,” he says, tone deceptively mild. “Tell me. Why did Zenin Holdings get our quarterly reports?”
You freeze.
“I—I didn’t know they weren’t supposed to?” you offer, blinking up at him.
He blinks back. Slowly.
You chew your lip in thought. “They were in the CC list… and I thought that meant they were part of the, um… quarterly club?”
“The what.”
“The quarterly club?” you repeat, voice smaller now. “Y’know. People who… get quarter stuff.”
You trail off, wilting under the weight of his silence.
Gojo stares at you. Hard. Trying—trying—to remember that you are a human being. With feelings. With softness. With a little clip shaped like a bunny holding back your hair. His eye twitches.
“And the Osaka merger notes?” he asks slowly, enunciating each word like it might hurt.
Your expression brightens slightly, like you've just remembered something important. “Oh! Yeah, I added a couple of personal notes to that file! Like, color commentary. For context.”
He raises an eyebrow. “Color commentary.”
He almost sighs. This is who HR sent? The one who forwarded classified financial statements to a competitor because their logo “looked kind of familiar”?
But then you shift slightly, fidgeting with the hem of your skirt, and he catches a glimpse of that anxious expression. The way you bite the inside of your cheek. Like you're waiting to be yelled at. Like you already know you’ve messed up and can’t even figure out how to explain yourself.
And, god help him, something about that makes his chest ache.
Gojo closes his eyes briefly. He’s going to need to do breathing exercises. Maybe call Shoko and have her prescribe something illegal.
You smile again. It’s like watching sunlight struggle through a stormcloud. “Was that bad?”
He exhales.
He should fire you. Realistically, that’s the correct response. A sane man would do it.
But when he opens his eyes, you're still standing there—wide-eyed, a little nervous, but so terribly, painfully earnest.
And his heart does that stupid little lurch again.
“No,” he mutters finally. “Not bad.”
You brighten instantly. “Oh, yay! I was worried—”
“But,” he cuts in, holding up a hand, “you’re going to be working directly under me from now on.”
Your brows lift. “Really? Oh my gosh, that sounds so fancy!”
“It’s not,” he lies smoothly.
He’s already planning which desk you’ll sit at in his office. Already making a mental note to have HR triple-check your email access. Already dreading what happens when you accidentally reply-all to a company-wide memo.
You give a delighted little bounce, clearly thrilled by the promotion.
Gojo’s not even mad anymore.
He’s confused. He’s concerned. He’s possibly having a stroke.
And he’s completely, utterly fucked.
-
It starts with the printer.
You stand in front of it for ten minutes straight, staring like it personally wronged you. Gojo passes by, slows, then stops entirely when he sees you poking the touchscreen with a single perfectly-manicured finger.
“…Need help?”
You turn, lip caught between your teeth. “I think it’s jammed.”
He crouches down, opens the tray, and immediately pulls out a crumpled sheet that’s very clearly been inserted upside down.
“Oh,” you murmur, eyes wide with awe. “You’re so smart.”
He straightens slowly. “Right.”
Then there’s the time he catches you on your way to send a very important file.
You wave at him, cheerful. “Hi, Mr. Gojo! I’m going to fax that thing you said.”
“Email,” he corrects gently, already bracing himself.
“Oh—right! Email. I meant that.”
(You did not.)
Still, when you do manage to send the right file—to the correct company this time—he gives you an exaggerated look of impressed approval.
“Nice job,” he says. “Look at you.”
You beam. “Really?”
“Yeah,” he says, completely serious. “You’re crushing it.”
He swears your cheeks actually flush. Like you’re the one who just got complimented for launching a satellite into orbit instead of… attaching a PDF.
Another time, he asks you to bring him a hard copy of the quarterly budget report.
You come back ten minutes later with a full-color printout of a Pinterest banana bread recipe.
You fidget when he just blinks down at the paper, eyes wide. “I, um… I might’ve labeled it wrong on my desktop.”
He hands it back. “Looks delicious.”
Despite everything—everything—he just can’t seem to get frustrated with you. Your voice is always soft when you speak to him, full of tentative politeness like you’re worried he might bite (he won’t—unless asked). You apologize earnestly for every tiny mistake, so genuinely mortified each time that he ends up reassuring you.
And when you do get something right—God help him—he reacts like you’ve cured polio.
“That’s perfect,” he tells you one afternoon, glancing at a neatly stapled stack of documents you’ve triple-checked for typos. “You nailed it.”
You blink up at him, mouth parted just a little. “…Really?”
“Mmhm. Proud of you.”
You go quiet. Blush furiously. Practically flee the room.
Gojo grins at the door after it clicks shut behind you.
He’s doomed.
Absolutely doomed.
-
“Do you need to stand there like that?” the exec snaps, arms crossed. “That machine isn’t rocket science.”
You blink, startled. “O-oh… I’m just— I’m trying to find the—um, the collate button?”
“It’s literally right there,” he scoffs, jabbing a finger at the screen. “God, how did you even get hired?”
You flinch like you’ve been struck. Eyes down, voice small. “I—I’m sorry…”
And that’s exactly when Gojo shows up.
You don’t even see him coming. One second the air is stiff with tension, the next it’s cut clean by the sound of his voice—smooth, pleasant, deceptively light:
“Everything okay over here?”
The exec stiffens. “Sir. I was just—”
“I saw,” Gojo says simply, stepping in beside you. He doesn’t even look at the guy—his gaze is already on you, sharp and assessing.
“You alright?”
You nod quickly. “Mhm. Sorry. I was just confused—”
“No need to apologize,” he says, almost too softly. “That’s what training is for.”
Then he finally looks up—at the exec—and there’s something in his eyes that wipes the smug off the latter’s face immediately.
“Unless,” he adds with a tilted smile, “you’re suggesting I made a mistake hiring her?”
Silence.
The exec stammers. “Of course not, sir. I—”
“Good,” Gojo says. “Then don’t talk to her like that again.”
The exec makes a quick, flustered exit. Gojo turns back to you, and his whole demeanor changes—softening.
“Hey,” he murmurs. “You okay?”
You nod again, a little stunned. “…I didn’t mean to make trouble.”
“You didn’t,” he assures you. “Some people just forget how to be decent.”
And then—because you’re fidgeting and biting your lip and looking far too much like you’re going to cry—he gently takes the stack of papers from your arms.
“C’mere,” he says. “I’ll help you.”
You trail after him, still pink in the cheeks, still utterly confused by the way his hand just barely grazes the small of your back as he guides you to his office.
(You don’t know it yet, but Gojo has already scheduled a little "chat" with HR.)
-
He checks his watch for the third time that morning.
9:47 AM.
You were supposed to be here by 9:00.
Gojo exhales, drumming his fingers against the arm of his chair, irritation simmering just beneath his skin. Meetings have been pushed, calls delayed. He’s not even sure why he’s this impatient—he has other assistants, more capable ones at that. But none of them stumble into his office with sleepy eyes and whispered apologies like you do.
And like clockwork, the door swings open with a quiet creak.
You enter in a flurry—breathless, hair slightly disheveled, cheeks flushed with panic. The top two buttons of your blouse are undone, likely forgotten in the rush, and your skirt is just slightly askew. Your chest rises and falls in frantic rhythm, lips parted as you gasp, “I’m so, so sorry I’m late—”
Satoru turns in his chair, ready to scold. Ready to lecture you into next week.
But the words die in his throat.
His gaze drops.
The loose fabric of your blouse shifts with each heavy breath, revealing just enough skin to make his jaw tighten. The delicate slope of your collarbone, the curve of your breasts pressing faintly against the silk. One deep breath away from completely derailing his morning.
You don’t notice the way his posture stiffens. Or the way his grip on the armrest turns white-knuckled.
He stands slowly.
Silent.
You freeze when he starts walking toward you, every step measured. His voice, when it comes, is quieter than you expect. Lower.
“Why are you late?”
You blink up at him, confused by the shift in tone. The air around him feels… heavier somehow. You fidget, your voice soft, guilty. “I—I overslept. My alarm didn’t go off and then the train was late and I didn’t mean to—”
He stops in front of you, towering over you. Close enough that you can smell his cologne—warm, expensive, intoxicating.
You glance up nervously, throat bobbing.
“I didn’t mean to,” you whisper again, lips trembling in the tiniest pout. You’re not even aware of how you sound, how you look. Not aware of the storm building behind his gaze.
And that is the worst part.
Because you don’t know what you’re doing to him.
You never do.
Gojo inhales sharply, jaw clenched. He watches the way your fingers twist in the hem of your cardigan like you’re expecting to be punished.
But instead of snapping, instead of chastising you like he knows he should, he closes his eyes for a second, forcing down the heat licking at his spine.
“...Don’t let it happen again,” he says at last, voice hoarse.
You nod quickly—eager to please, still breathless, completely unaware that he’s already running through several very unprofessional thoughts involving those undone buttons and his desk.
He turns away before he can say something stupid. Or worse—do something worse.
“Go grab your coffee,” he mutters. “You’ll need it.”
Because he sure as hell does.
-
Gojo thinks he’s composed. Polished. Unshakeable. He built an empire from the ground up, commands boardrooms with a single glance, and has executives stuttering when they see his name on a meeting invite. And yet—you.
You waltz into his office in pink heels, with a notepad that’s more doodles than notes and a voice so breathy it makes his vision blur. You don’t even mean to drive him insane, he knows that. That’s the worst part. You’re just sweet. Oblivious. Soft in ways that make his dick ache.
Like today. You’re sitting on the edge of his desk, babbling on the phone about a nail appointment while absentmindedly reapplying your lip gloss—shiny, sticky, strawberry-scented. He watches the wand glide over your bottom lip like it's a slow-motion scene from a movie no one else gets to see. He’s staring. Unblinking. Dying.
And when you leave, heels clicking, skirt swaying, you forget the gloss. He doesn’t even hesitate. Just picks it up and rolls it between his fingers, stares at it. It smells like strawberries. You smell like strawberries. His head hits the back of his chair. He’s so fucked.
It happens again and again. You lean over his desk to show him your “cute calendar” for the month—full of glittery stickers and hearts—and your cleavage is right there. Right. There. He knocks his coffee into his lap and doesn’t even flinch. Just stares at you while it soaks through his slacks, wondering if this is how men go insane.
And then in the elevator. Five minutes. Just the two of you. You don’t even notice the silence thick with tension. You’re talking about your new lip liner. He’s clutching the railing behind him like it’s keeping him tethered to Earth. If you’d looked at him, you’d have seen the vein in his neck pulsing like a warning sign.
But nothing—nothing—compares to the time you shyly step into his office and whisper, “I finished typing the reports, sir.”
He doesn’t breathe for a full ten seconds. Just stares at you like you just moaned it instead of murmured it. Sir. Sir.
He shifts in his seat. Crosses his legs. Forces a smile. “Good,” he manages to say, voice tight.
You beam, oblivious. “Thank you, sir!”
He books a week off.
For “stress.”
-
His voice is calm. Measured. Smooth as silk over the phone speaker as he discusses quarterly projections with someone powerful on the other end. It should be just another meeting—another conversation where he dazzles and dominates, where the board eats out of the palm of his hand.
But you're sitting beside him. So it’s not just another meeting.
You’re perched on the edge of his long leather couch, notepad in hand, eyes wide and glossy with focus—or something like it. You’re wearing that tight little pastel skirt again, the one that always hikes up when you sit, riding dangerously high on your thighs. He’s not looking. He’s not. He can’t.
You chew on the tip of your pen. Take little notes in bubbly handwriting that looks more like diary scribbles than minutes. Your perfume curls around him like sugar—sweet and sticky and heavy.
He swallows thickly and forces his voice to stay even.
“Yes, I saw the numbers from Q1. I’m more concerned about the international—”
Your pen clatters to the ground.
You let out a tiny “Oops!” and bend down to retrieve it.
And he sees it.
The hem of your skirt lifts, slow and innocent. And beneath? A delicate peek of pink lace. Just a flash. Barely anything. But enough. Far too much.
His throat goes dry mid-sentence.
“—international… ah—i-interest projections,” he chokes, dragging a hand down his face like that’ll fix the heat flooding it. On the other end of the call, someone asks a question. He doesn’t hear it.
You sit back up like nothing happened. Like you didn’t just flash your lace panties in front of a man on the verge of damnation.
You turn to him with a soft, clueless smile. “Did you want me to jot that last part down, sir?”
He makes a sound. It's somewhere between a sigh and a whimper.
“…Y-Yeah,” he rasps, gripping the edge of the desk so hard his knuckles go white. “Write it down, sweetheart.”
He ends the call early. Tells them he has a migraine.
And when you leave, swaying your hips and humming under your breath, he sits there in silence. Staring at the door.
He needs a second. Maybe a sedative. Maybe a priest.
-
The next few days are… strange.
You don’t do anything differently. Not really. You still show up on time, still take notes in pink ink and heart your i’s. Still trail after him in those little skirts and heels that click sweetly on the marble floors. But now?
Now you catch him looking.
At first, you thought it was your imagination—just a trick of the lights in his big glass-walled office. But then there was that meeting where you leaned over to grab a file from across the table, and his pen slipped right out of his hand.
The way he stared at it on the floor for a solid five seconds before muttering, “I’ll grab it later,” like it had personally wronged him.
Or how his jaw flexes every time you call him “sir.”
And maybe, maybe you're not as airheaded as everyone thinks. Maybe you notice the way his breath stutters when you get a little too close. The way his fingers twitch when yours brush his as you hand him his coffee. The way he clears his throat, sharp and low, whenever you pout a little at the copier machine and ask, “Sir, can you help me? I think I broke it again…”
He’s unraveling. Quietly, pathetically. And now you know it.
So one afternoon, when it’s just you two in the office, you decide to test a theory. You're by his desk, sorting through a stack of documents, when your pen slips from your fingers. Again.
This time, you don't rush to pick it up. This time, you bend at the waist slowly, keeping your knees straight, skirt riding up with every inch.
You hear it—barely—a sharp inhale through his teeth. The creak of leather as he shifts in his chair.
And when you straighten up, all innocent, pen in hand and a small “Got it!” on your lips, you glance back at him.
His eyes are locked on his screen. His jaw is tense. His ears are red.
“Something wrong, sir?” you ask softly.
His hand flexes on the mouse. “No,” he says, too quickly. “Just… keep working.”
You turn back around, letting a little smile play on your lips as you resume sorting. And behind you, you swear you hear him exhale like he’s been holding his breath for hours.
-
The office is quiet. Still.
It’s late—past nine—and everyone’s gone home. The usual buzz of ringing phones and fast-clicking heels has faded into silence, replaced by the distant hum of the city through the tinted glass.
You zip your purse, your reflection faint in the darkened windows, and start toward the elevators when you pass by his office.
There's a light. A thin sliver glowing beneath the heavy door.
You pause. He usually leaves before you—always gone in a blur of cologne and tailored coats, muttering about dinner meetings or conference calls. But tonight?
You don’t even think to knock. You just twist the handle gently and step inside.
He’s on the couch. Jacket off, shirt sleeves rolled to the elbows, tie loosened. His head’s tipped back, long legs spread lazily, one arm resting across the back of the couch. But it’s his face that stops you—brows knit, lips parted slightly, tension carved into every sharp line of his expression.
“Sir?” you ask, voice soft.
His eyes snap open instantly.
He blinks once. Twice. Like he’s still anchoring himself to the present. Then he straightens slightly, clearing his throat. “You’re still here?” His voice is rough—raspy, like he hasn’t spoken in a while. Like maybe he’s been sitting there, alone in the dark, trying to exhale something that refuses to leave his chest.
“I was just leaving,” you say, stepping in hesitantly. “I saw the light. Thought something was wrong…”
His gaze drags over you, slow and unreadable. You’re still in your little work outfit—tight pencil skirt, soft pink cardigan buttoned just enough, gloss fading but still catching the light.
Something shifts behind his eyes. Not predatory, not quite. Just tired. Tightly wound. Like he's been holding his breath for days and didn't realize it until now.
You take another step in, voice gentler. “Are you okay?”
He huffs a laugh under his breath, low and humorless. “That’s a loaded question.”
You offer a tiny smile, unsure. “Can I… get you anything? Water?”
He leans back again, dragging a hand through his already-messy hair. “I’m alright. Just… stressed.”
You take a small step closer. Your heels click against the floor, the sound delicate and deliberate in the thick silence of his office. “Stressed?” you echo, like it’s a foreign concept. “Is it work stuff?”
He chuckles, but there’s no humor in it. “It’s always work stuff.”
You hesitate. Then, softly—“I could help you.”
His head tilts just slightly. “Help me?”
“Mhm,” you nod, all sweet sincerity. “Like, if there’s something that’d make you feel better…” You give him a soft little shrug, voice light. “I’m good at taking direction. And I always try my best. Especially for you, sir.”
It cuts to silence.
Except it isn’t really silent—just muffled. Wet sounds echo low between your bodies, broken only by the soft catch of your breath and the rougher gasps he keeps trying—and failing—to hold in.
You’re on your knees in front of him.
The carpet’s rough under your skin, but you barely notice. All your attention is on him—on the way he looks half-wrecked, head tipped up like he’s praying for strength he doesn’t have.
His shirt’s half-open, wrinkled and clinging to his chest. His tie’s slung loose around his neck. His belt is unbuckled, slacks shoved just low enough to free his cock, flushed and heavy against your tongue. You’ve got one hand wrapped gently around the base, just to keep him steady, and the rest of him is disappearing into your mouth—slow and warm and dripping with spit.
He’s so hard it hurts. His thighs are tensed under your palms, twitching every time you suck just a little deeper, every time you swirl your tongue just right. His knuckles have gone white where he’s gripping the edge of the desk behind him, and the only reason he hasn’t fucked into your throat yet is because he’s too stunned to move.
One hand’s in your hair. Not tight—barely there, fingers trembling where they tangle in your strands. Like he’s scared to hold you too hard. Like he doesn’t trust himself not to snap.
Because you look up at him with those pretty, shiny eyes—sweet and obedient, mouth stretched around his cock like it’s nothing, like you were made to take it. Every time your lips slide down, you hum like it makes you happy. Like you’re just trying to make him feel good. Like you really think this is helping.
But it’s not just good. It’s fucking devastating.
“F-fuck,” he chokes out, voice thick and raw, eyes squeezing shut like it’s the only thing keeping him grounded. His hips twitch and he immediately pulls back, like he’s punishing himself for even thinking about pushing deeper. “You—god, you have no idea what you’re doing to me…”
You pull back with a soft, wet pop. Your lips are swollen and slick, gloss long gone, spit clinging to your chin. And still—you look up at him like you don’t understand why he’s shaking. Why his voice is breaking. Why his jaw’s so tight.
You blink slowly, lashes fluttering. Your voice comes out light. “But… I thought I was helping, sir.”
And that’s it. That’s the moment Gojo knows he’s fucked.
Because you’re too sweet, too soft, too good—kneeling on the floor with your mouth still open like you're waiting for permission to keep going. And he doesn’t want to just ruin you.
He wants to worship you while he does it.
His whole body goes still.
Like that last sentence knocked the breath out of him. Like the sight of you—so sweet, so sincere, kneeling between his spread legs with spit on your lips—is too much.
Gojo’s chest heaves, one hand still barely resting in your hair. The other drapes uselessly over the back of the couch, knuckles twitching like he doesn’t know what to do with himself.
He looks down at you. Really looks—at your flushed cheeks, your glassy eyes, the gloss long gone from your lips. You’re still stroking him, slow and gentle, mouth parted just enough like you’re ready to take him again the second he says so.
“You don’t even know what you’re doing to me,” he mutters, voice rough.
You tilt your head, blinking up at him. “I was just trying to make you feel better…”
And that’s what shatters him.
“Fuck,” he breathes, hand tightening slightly in your hair. Not rough. Just… grounded. Like he needs you now—needs the feel of you to keep from falling apart.
“I’ve dreamed about this,” he admits, eyes fluttering shut for a second. “This exact thing. You. On your knees. Pretty little mouth full of me. Acting like you don’t even realize what it’s doing to me.”
When he opens his eyes again, they’re glassy. Wild.
“I think about it all the time, you know? In meetings. At dinner. Late at night in my apartment—fucking my fist wishing it was you.”
Your breath hitches at that. He notices.
And when he strokes your cheek—soft, reverent, thumb brushing over your spit-slick lower lip—you don’t flinch. You just lean into it, eyes wide, mouth still open a little.
“God, baby…” he whispers. “Look at you. You don’t even realize how fucking perfect you are, do you?”
Then, low and commanding, “C’mon. Open up again for me.”
You do. Instantly. No hesitation.
He groans, head falling back against the couch cushion, hips lifting just slightly as you take him back into your mouth—slow, deliberate, deeper this time.
He’s panting now. One hand in your hair, the other gripping the couch so hard the leather creaks under his fingers.
“Good girl,” he murmurs, voice broken. “Just like that. Let me use your mouth, sweetheart. Let me fuckin’—” He cuts himself off with a ragged gasp when your tongue flicks along the underside of his cock just right.
He tries not to buck his hips.
Tries not to grab your head.
Tries not to lose it completely.
But it’s no use. Not when you look so soft. So obedient. So eager to take everything he gives you.
And somewhere in the back of his mind, he knows this isn’t just a one-time thing. Not after this. He’s never letting you go.
You can feel it in the way his thighs tense under your palms. In how his hand tightens just a little too much in your hair, like he’s trying not to pull you down—trying to be good.
But his self-control’s shot to hell.
You hollow your cheeks and ease forward just an inch more. His head snaps back. A long, broken moan spills out of him, and his other hand—still clinging to the edge of the couch—moves to cradle your cheek, palm shaking.
“Wait—baby, I’m gonna—fuck, I’m gonna—”
You look up at him. Eyes wide. Unfazed. Lips stretched around him, spit running down your chin. You hum softly—sweet and encouraging, like you want it.
That’s what does it.
Gojo groans deep in his chest, hips twitching once before he locks them still, his hand trembling where it cups your face. He comes hard, spilling onto your tongue, body shuddering like he’s been pulled out of orbit. And you don’t move—don’t flinch—just swallow quietly, blinking up at him like you’ve never done anything so natural in your life.
He’s panting when it’s over. Gasping like he ran a mile, chest rising and falling in uneven bursts. His hand slips from your hair and drags gently down the side of your neck, tender and dazed.
“Holy shit,” he breathes. “You’re unreal.”
You pull back slowly, mouth slick, lips swollen and pink. There's still a bit of him clinging to your bottom lip—and when you wipe it away with your thumb and suck it off absentmindedly, he makes a soft, wrecked sound in the back of his throat.
“Did I help?” you ask softly, like you’re not already his religion.
And suddenly he’s moving.
In one smooth, needy motion, Gojo leans forward, grabs you under your arms, and pulls you right into his lap. The whole shift is effortless—like you weigh nothing, like you belong there. Your knees settle on either side of his thighs, your hands instinctively resting on his chest.
He’s still breathing hard. Hair messy, tie hanging askew. But his hands are steady now, warm as they cup your hips and hold you close. His head rests against your shoulder for a second, like he just needs to feel you.
“Too well,” he murmurs. “You helped too fucking well.”
One hand lifts to cup the side of your face again. He strokes your cheek with his thumb, gaze softening like he’s trying to memorize everything—your flushed skin, your shiny lips, the way you’re still straddling him like it’s the most normal thing in the world.
“You’re so good for me,” he says. Quiet. Honest.
You smile, just barely. “I like being good for you.”
And it clicks for him then. That he’s completely gone. That he’d do anything to keep you like this—sweet, soft, his.
“Let me take care of you now,” he murmurs, leaning in. “You were perfect.”
His mouth brushes your jaw, your cheek, your lips—soft, reverent kisses. Nothing rushed. Just quiet, lingering gratitude, like he’s trying to say everything he doesn’t have words for yet.
He holds you there, warm in his lap, and for once in his life, Gojo Satoru feels like he has nothing else to run to.
-
It starts small.
A glance that lingers too long. The way his eyes flick down to your mouth whenever you talk. The way his voice goes soft—low and fond—when he calls you into his office now.
“Got a minute, sweetheart?”
He always says it like it’s nothing. Like his heart isn’t skipping a beat every time you look up at him with wide eyes.
But then there’s the night he catches you frowning at the copier.
Your arms are crossed, bottom lip caught between your teeth, standing in front of the machine like it just insulted your entire bloodline.
He rounds the corner, sees the blinking error light, and immediately slows his steps.
“Need help?” he asks, lips twitching.
You huff. “It keeps saying ‘paper jam,’ but there’s no paper. I looked!”
Gojo steps in without hesitation, one hand brushing your back as he leans close—so close—to peer into the machine with you.
“Let me help you, sweetheart,” he murmurs, voice warm.
You freeze a little when he says it like that. Soft. Patient. Like it’s the most natural thing in the world for him to come untangle your messes.
He opens the side panel, reaches in, and—sure enough—pulls out a crumpled little piece of paper stuck way in the back. You blink.
“Oh.”
He grins, glancing down at you. “You’re cute when you try to problem-solve.”
You open your mouth to protest, but before you can say a word, he leans down and kisses you. Soft, slow, sure. Right there in the hallway, lights buzzing faintly overhead.
It doesn’t last long—just a breathless few seconds—but when he pulls back, he’s smiling like you hung the stars.
“See? You do your best,” he says. “And I take care of the rest.”
Another day, another meeting.
You're seated beside him, nervously flipping through a stack of documents. The printouts don’t make much sense—some budget chart you barely understand—but you try to follow along, nodding like you get it.
Gojo notices. Of course he does.
He leans over, voice low near your ear. “That page’s upside down, baby.”
You blink down. Oh. It is.
Your face goes hot instantly. But he just grins, tugs it gently from your hands, and flips it around before setting it neatly back on the table.
Then he grabs your pen and starts jotting little notes in the margins to help. Bullet points. Simplified terms. Asterisks with arrows pointing to key numbers.
You stare at the page.
He nudges your knee under the table, gentle. “I got you.”
Sometimes he kisses you without warning. When you bring him coffee. When you trip over your words in a meeting and look at him like you’re going to cry. When you smile too hard at something stupid and he just can’t help himself.
There’s a moment in the break room—mid-laugh, holding a napkin in your hand—when he walks in, sees you like that, and kisses you so suddenly the coffee cup almost falls from your fingers.
He just pulls you in. Mouth hot and insistent. One hand curling around your waist like he needs you closer.
You gasp against him, wide-eyed, but don’t pull away. You never do.
When he breaks the kiss, he leans his forehead against yours, breathing hard. Eyes glassy.
“Sorry,” he whispers. “Couldn’t help it.”
But he’s not sorry. Not even a little.
And when he walks you out at the end of the night—past the quiet desks, the dark windows—he always makes sure your purse is zipped, your coat is buttoned, your phone’s in your hand.
“You good?” he asks, gentle. “Need me to call you a car?”
“I’m okay,” you say every time, small and sweet.
But he still walks you to the elevator, still touches your back as the doors close, still watches them until the numbers tick down and you're out of sight.
Because Gojo Satoru is in love. So in love.
And it’s getting harder every day to pretend he’s not.
-
You hand him the report in silence, nervous fingers lingering just a second too long on the paper. He takes it, brows lifted—expecting to have to fix something, as usual.
But he doesn’t say a word. Just scans the first page, then the second.
Then stillness.
He looks up, something unreadable in his eyes. “You did this?”
You nod slowly. “I… think I got it right.”
He flips back to the beginning. Reads again. His lips part, and he exhales a quiet laugh—disbelieving.
“Yeah. You did.” A pause. “You got everything right.”
Your breath catches.
He pushes back from his desk, legs spreading slightly in his chair, eyes still locked on you. “C’mere.”
You walk around the desk slowly. His chair rolls back a little, his hands landing on your hips to guide you between his legs. His voice is low, almost amused.
“You’ve been trying to get this right for weeks.”
“I know,” you say quietly, blinking up at him.
“You’ve been trying so hard,” he murmurs, thumb brushing under your chin. “And I’ve been so fucking patient.”
Before you can ask what that means, he pulls you in, kissing you soft and deep, tongue sliding into your mouth with slow intent. It’s not rushed. It’s not demanding. It’s like he’s savoring you.
Then, a whisper against your lips, “Up on the desk, sweetheart.”
You hesitate. His hands lift you easily, setting you on the polished edge, your skirt already sliding up as he nudges your knees apart.
You breathe his name, quiet. He smiles, eyes flicking to your thighs, then back to your face.
“You always try so hard for me,” he murmurs, fingers brushing up your bare leg. “I should’ve done this sooner.”
He leans in and kisses your inner thigh. Just once. Then again, higher this time, warm breath brushing close. You’re already squirming when his fingers hook into your underwear, dragging it down slow.
His hands hold your thighs open, firm but not rough. And when he leans in and finally licks—flat and slow, from bottom to top—you gasp.
He hums against you, like you taste better than he imagined.
“You’ve been thinking about this,” he murmurs, mouth brushing your clit as he speaks. “Wearing that little skirt. Acting all innocent.”
His tongue moves again—firmer now, more focused, mouth wet and hot, tongue dragging circles around your clit until your back’s arching off the desk.
One of his hands drifts to your stomach, holding you down gently while he keeps going.
He doesn’t stop. Just sucks your clit slow and deep, then flicks it with the tip of his tongue until your thighs clamp around his shoulders.
“Oh my god—sir—”
He groans at the sound of your voice, fingers digging just slightly into your skin. He licks deeper, messier now, tongue dipping into you before dragging back up, mouth slick with you.
You grip his hair, eyes fluttering. He doesn’t pull away. If anything, he groans when you do it—low and hungry, the vibration shooting straight through your core.
“You taste like heaven,” he murmurs, voice muffled against you.
Every time your hips jerk, he steadies you with a quiet, “Shh, I got you.”
And when you finally come—quiet but shaking, breath punched out of your lungs—he holds you still and keeps licking until your thighs are trembling from the aftershocks.
Only then does he pull back, mouth shiny, pupils blown.
When you finally go still, he stays there a beat longer. Just breathing against your skin. Then he leans up, wipes his mouth with the back of his hand, and looks at you.
No smirk. No smug comment.
Just “You did good.”
Then a pause, before he adds, softer—
“So good I might keep you here for a while.”
-
The conference room is all glass and polish, afternoon sunlight spilling over the sleek table, casting reflections on every chrome edge. You’re seated near the far end, soft blouse tucked neatly into your skirt, lips glossed, notebook open—trying to look like you understand the graphs being passed around.
You’re perched between two other departments. People you don’t usually work with.
That’s when one of them—a guy from Finance, tall, tan, and way too smug—leans toward you with a charming little grin.
“I don’t think we’ve met yet,” he says low, like this meeting is a cocktail hour. “You new?”
You glance up, a little startled. “Oh—kinda. I’ve been here a couple months…”
He looks you up and down, eyes lingering a second too long. “They must’ve been keeping you hidden.”
You laugh nervously. Just a tiny sound. Then glance across the table.
Gojo’s already watching you.
Expression unreadable. Elbow propped on the armrest, long fingers brushing his lips, like he’s bored but you know better. His other hand is clenched in his lap, the silver of his ring glinting as it curls tighter.
He says nothing.
Just tracks the way that guy keeps leaning closer. The way his shoulder nearly brushes yours. The way you keep tucking your hair behind your ear.
“You work directly under Gojo?” the guy asks, lips quirking.
“Mhm,” you nod, keeping your tone light. “Just admin stuff.”
“Admin,” he echoes with a smirk. “You sure don’t look like admin.”
Gojo’s head tilts, slowly. “Something you’d like to say about my assistant?” His voice is calm. Light.
But something sharp lives underneath it.
The guy laughs, brushing it off. “Just saying, sir. You’ve got an eye for talent.”
A few people chuckle under their breath.
You swallow hard, eyes flicking back to your notes, burning with embarrassment.
Gojo doesn’t laugh.
He just smiles. That small, dangerous kind of smile. “Mm. That I do.”
The meeting moves on—but he doesn’t.
You can feel the weight of his stare for the rest of it. Every time you fidget, every time you speak up with that soft, hesitant voice of yours, his eyes flick to you like he’s trying to memorize the sound.
It’s late afternoon when your desk phone rings.
You jump a little. The office is quiet now—most people wrapping up their day, the halls thinning out.
You pick it up. “H-Hello?”
“Come to my office.”
That’s all he says. No tone. No explanation. Just that low, clipped command—and then the line clicks dead.
Your heart stutters.
You smooth your skirt nervously, touch up your gloss with shaking fingers, then knock on his office door.
No answer.
So you step inside.
The room’s dim, lit only by the golden wash of the setting sun through the floor-to-ceiling windows. Gojo’s at his desk, sprawled back in his leather chair.
Jacket tossed aside, sleeves rolled. His tie’s hanging loose around his neck, top buttons undone. Hair a little messy like he’s run his hands through it too many times.
He looks you over slowly. Not speaking. Just dragging his gaze down your body and back up again, the tension crawling up your spine with every second of silence.
You shift, swallowing. “You… asked for me, sir?”
A slow smirk touches his lips.
“Mm. I did.”
He doesn’t invite you to sit.
He just watches you stand there—nervous and fidgety, wringing your hands in front of his desk.
“I wanted to ask,” he says lazily, “how that meeting went for you.”
You blink. “It was… okay?”
“‘Okay’,” he echoes, still smirking. “That guy from Finance seemed real interested in you.”
Your stomach flips.
“Oh, um—he was just being friendly—”
Gojo hums. Stands up.
You freeze as he rounds the desk, walking toward you slowly. Unhurried. Like he already knows you won’t run.
“He called you pretty,” he says, voice softer now. “Right in front of me.”
You look down. “I didn’t— I mean, I didn’t flirt back or anything—”
“I know you didn’t, sweetheart,” he murmurs, reaching you at last.
His fingers find your chin, tilting it up gently.
“I saw you. Saw how good you were. All polite and quiet. Just letting him talk like that.”
You nod, lips parted, breath catching.
His thumb strokes along your jaw.
You barely have time to ask what this is about before he crowds in, gently guiding you backward until your hips bump the edge of his desk. He doesn’t push—he never has to. Just waits, hands resting on your waist, thumbs stroking small circles until you sit for him.
The silence stretches as he steps between your legs. He’s still for a moment, eyes drifting down your body—slow and thoughtful, like he’s mentally tracing every place he’s already touched.
“Didn’t like that,” he says quietly.
You blink. “What?”
His hands slide up your thighs. “The way he looked at you.”
You swallow. “I didn’t flirt with him or anything, I swear—”
“I know,” he says simply.
His thumbs reach the edge of your skirt, bunching the fabric higher. The room’s quiet except for the rustle of clothes and the faint hum of the city outside the glass.
“You were good,” he murmurs. “You always are.”
You don’t know what to say. Your heart’s racing. You’re too aware of the warmth of his palms against your skin.
Then he sinks to his knees.
Your breath catches.
“Sir—”
He looks up at you. Calm. Steady. “Just let me, angel.”
You nod.
He leans in, pressing a kiss just above your knee. Then another, higher. His hands slide further up, coaxing your legs open—thumbs stroking the soft skin of your inner thighs like he’s in no rush. Like he’s savoring it.
You try not to squirm.
“Keep your eyes on me,” he murmurs.
He hooks his fingers under your panties and drags them down slow. No fanfare. No teasing smirk. Just quiet focus. When he presses his mouth to you, it’s unhurried. He licks into you like he’s tasting you for the first time—soft, deliberate strokes of his tongue that have your breath stuttering.
You grip the edge of the desk. He hums softly when you twitch under him.
“So sensitive,” he murmurs. “How long have you been like this?”
You shake your head, too breathless to answer.
His thumb strokes your thigh while he eats you out like it’s something to be taken seriously—like he’s tuning the rest of the world out just for this. Just for you.
Every now and then, he pauses. Kisses the inside of your thigh. Lets you breathe.
“Say it.”
You blink, dazed. “Say…?”
“You know what I want.”
Your mouth parts. “I’m yours.”
He groans softly, going right back in—tongue slow, fingers digging into your thighs to hold you open.
“Again.”
You moan, hips jerking. “I’m yours, Gojo—fuck—only yours—”
“Yeah,” he mutters against you, voice low and wrecked. “That’s right.”
He doesn’t stop. Not even when you start trembling, thighs shaking around his head. He keeps working you through it—tongue steady, hands warm, mouth dragging out every pulse of it until you're gasping his name, half-crying into the sleeve of your blouse.
When he finally pulls back, his chin is slick and his breath is shallow. 
You're already wet—he drags his fingers through it once, slow and deliberate, before circling your clit with maddening patience. You try to keep quiet, but the sounds come anyway—tiny, breathy, embarrassing things.
He slips one finger inside, then another. It’s not rushed—it’s focused. Careful. Testing what you can take.
His free hand wraps around the back of your thigh, pulling you a little closer to the edge. His fingers work you open slowly, curling just right, his thumb brushing up top in quiet, steady strokes.
“You can take it,” he murmurs. “I’ve got you.”
You grip the edge of the desk, gasping when he shifts just slightly and hits something deeper.
“There,” he says, like he’s memorizing it. “Right there, huh?”
You nod quickly, eyes fluttering, hips starting to roll with him.
“Yeah… that’s it. Just like that.” He watches you the whole time—so attentive, so fucking into it—like he’s trying to catch every twitch of your mouth, every time your lashes flutter.
“Go ahead,” he whispers. “I want to feel you.”
You come quiet, but it shakes through you all the same—hips jerking, thighs trembling, mouth falling open around a sound you didn’t mean to make. His fingers don’t stop. He fucks you through it—just enough pressure, just enough praise, dragging it out until you're oversensitive and shaking.
When he finally pulls his hand away, he brings it to his mouth, licking his fingers like it’s nothing.
You blink at him, dazed. “Gojo—”
He stands, reaches out, and drags you up to your feet with zero effort.
“We’re not done yet,” he murmurs, already turning you gently around.
And then he presses you forward over the desk—his hand on your back, firm but not rough, guiding you down. You feel the heat of him behind you, his belt already unfastening.
His belt slides open with a quiet snick, slow and deliberate, like he’s giving you time to brace.
But you don’t. Can’t. You’re still bent over his desk, legs trembling from the second orgasm he pulled out of you like it was nothing.
Behind you, you hear the soft zzzp of his zipper, the rustle of fabric as he lowers just enough to free himself. You start to shift—maybe to stand, maybe to turn—but his palm finds the small of your back again, holding you down gently.
“Stay,” he murmurs.
You freeze.
“‘M not done with you yet.”
You gasp when you feel the blunt heat of him, hard and already dripping, sliding between your folds. He’s not pushing in—yet—but he’s there, heavy against you, teasing, dragging slow and wet between your folds while he stares down like he’s watching something sacred.
“Still so fucking warm,” he says under his breath. “You gonna let me fuck you now, sweetheart?”
You nod quickly, the word yes catching in your throat.
“Need you to say it,” he breathes, leaning forward, his chest brushing your back. “C’mon. Tell me.”
“I want you to,” you whisper, voice shaking. “Please—”
He groans, low and ragged, and then—finally—he pushes in.
You gasp—he’s big, thick and slow as he sinks in inch by inch. Your hands scramble for purchase on the desk, gripping the edge as he fills you.
“F-fuck,” he grits out, jaw clenched tight. “You feel—Jesus, precious, you’re perfect.”
He bottoms out with a slow roll of his hips, then stays there. Doesn’t move. Just breathes heavy against your back, like he’s trying to hold himself together.
“I’ve been thinking about this,” he says softly. “So long. Can’t even count how many fucking times I looked at you and wanted this.”
You whimper as he pulls out a little, then thrusts back in—just once, sharp and deep. You jolt against the desk, your cheek pressing to the cool wood.
He sets a pace then—not fast, not rough. Just deep. Controlled. Like every thrust is meant to remind you who you belong to. He fills you so fully, going deeper with every thrust as if trying to rid any thought from your brain that isn’t him.
The rhythm of it—his hips rolling into you, his hand tight on your waist, the obscene sound of skin meeting skin and your own slick soaking every movement—drives you closer and closer until you’re nearly crying with it.
“Satoru—please—” you pant, arching back against him, trying to take more.
“I know, precious. I know,” he murmurs, dragging his hand back to your hip so he can fuck you harder now, a little deeper. “You’re takin’ it so good.”
His thick head kisses your cervix with every relentless snap of his hips and one of his hands reaches down to dip between your thighs, rubbing tight, precise circles onto your clit.
“Mmm—sir,” you whine into the polished mahogany table, fingers digging into the edges of the fine wood. “I’m so—fuck—close!”
“Yeah? You’re gonna come for me, precious?”
Your orgasm builds sharp and fast and you nod, your toes curling, jaw slack, eyes squeezed shut.
“Let go,” he whispers, voice low and frayed. “Wanna feel you come on my cock. Be good for me, yeah?”
You do—god, you do—legs shaking, breath catching, body going tight around him as the orgasm hits, rolling through you in waves.
Gojo swears under his breath, fingers gripping your hips hard enough to bruise as he fucks you through it, chasing his own release. And then he groans deep and spills into you with a shudder.
He stays there for a moment, slumped over you, both of you catching your breath in the heavy silence of the office. Then, slowly, he pulls out, gentle as ever, hands skimming over your hips to smooth your skirt back down.
“You okay?” he murmurs, voice still rough, a rasp of heat and concern wrapped in silk.
You nod, lips parted, lungs trying to catch up. His gaze doesn’t move from your face.
He leans down and presses a kiss to your shoulder then another just beneath your ear. “Breathe, sweetheart,” he coaxes, hands tracing soothing lines down your sides. “You were perfect.”
He shifts, not pulling away from you, but adjusting and cradling you with too much care for a man who had you begging a few minutes ago. He gently flips you over onto your back, strong hands finding your hips and then your thighs, his thumbs kneading slow, soft circles into the sore muscle like he’s memorizing your skin.
A content sigh escapes you, and he smiles, eyes half-lidded and reverent.
“Good girl,” he says lowly, his forehead pressing to yours. “You did so good for me, angel. So fucking good.”
His mouth finds yours, and the kiss he gives you is nothing like the ones before. It’s not rushed, not wild. It’s deep, slow, and indulgent. Like he’s trying to pour all the unspoken things into it.
Your arms loop around his neck, and your fingers find his hair, tugging gently. He groans quietly against your lips, like the sound is meant just for you.
You sigh into his mouth, full, and wrecked in the best way.
He pulls back only slightly, nose brushing yours. 
“Remind me to give you another bonus.”

There’s just something extremely touching about watching Izutsumi work through a wide range of emotions when she sees Marcille cry for the first time.
She’s sleeping on Marcille’s lap when it happens—something she hadn’t willingly done since her human consciousness was subdued in the Golden Country.
Tumblr media
Izutsumi was initially very embarrassed when she remembered showing Marcille such unbridled affection when her monster (cat) side had full control in Melini. But now, shortly after, she did it again without any fuss, seemingly over this embarrassment.
But when she notices Marcille crying—not crying expressive tears over a situation with low stakes, but tears of real sorrow and loss—Izutsumi physically recoils.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
She reacts with the childlike fear and panic that one feels when someone they heavily rely on and trust (like a parent or teacher) shows vulnerability, doubt, or weakness. She lashes out, trying to use words of reproach to get Marcille to stop crying. Or, in childlike terms, to try to force Marcille’s pain go away.
When that doesn’t work, we see her physically struggle as she tries to sit by and wait it out. But Izutsumi can’t do it.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Marcille’s pain causes her so much intense distress that Izutsumi immediately offers physical affection as a response—something she has not done for anyone up to this point.
Tumblr media
When Senshi told the party about his traumatic backstory, Izutsumi did not touch him. She did support him, tried to offer words of comfort, but she did not embrace him like the others did. Maybe she didn’t know how; maybe she didn’t have a proper example on what comforting someone looked like. But she saw all three of them reach for Senshi, she saw them hold him in their arms, and anchor him as he cried.
This is the first time another party member has cried out of sadness since that moment. It’s possible that she saw how the others helped Senshi, and maybe, subconsciously, she saw that it worked. That it made him feel better.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
She is clearly unused to it, and has her own rollercoaster of emotions as Marcille gratefully accepts the comfort Izutsumi is offering her. But it helps. It helps Marcille immediately, and Izutsumi knows this.
Tumblr media
These acts of vulnerability are foreign to her, and thus make her feel uncomfortable, but she lets Marcille lean on her afterwards anyway. She wanted Marcille to be okay, wanted it so badly, that she accidentally overcame an emotional obstacle she never even knew she had.

Jason Todd can handle a lot, pain, blood, bullets. He’s survived things that should’ve killed him. He’s stared death in the face and grinned. But you crying?
No. No, that he can’t handle.
Especially not when it’s because of him.
It happens too fast, faster than he can catch. His voice rises mid-argument, sharp and defensive, frustration bleeding through every syllable. And then your breath hitches. Just once. Barely a sound. But he hears it. Sees it, too. The way your eyes suddenly go glassy, lashes trembling with unshed tears. The wobble of your bottom lip. That blink-blink-blink like you’re trying so hard to keep it in, like it’s your fault for reacting at all. That expression - so small, so crushed - makes something twist violently in his chest.
“Babe,” he says, immediately. Voice low. Cracked.
“Baby.” Already stepping closer.
“Lover.” he breathes, softer now, frantic in his own quiet way, reaching out before the first tear even falls. But it does, rolling down your cheek in a hot streak that shatters him completely.
“I didn’t mean that. I swear. I didn’t - ” His words fumble, tangled in his throat, caught between apology and desperation.
You try to turn away, swiping at your face, but he’s already pulling you in, arms strong and sure as they wrap around you. He sits down without thinking, dragging you with him into his lap, curling himself around you like a barrier from the world. Like if he holds you tight enough, he can fix it. Undo it.
You’re hiccuping against his chest, hands balled into his shirt, and he presses his cheek to the top of your head, breathing you in. You smell like tears and your shared shampoo and home. His fingers stroke your spine, firm and steady. Like you’re both reminding each other: still here. still loved.
“I’m sorry,” he whispers. Again. And again. “I didn’t mean to yell. I didn’t mean to hurt you.”
His voice is low, rough with guilt. There’s something trembling in it, something he hasn’t let anyone see since he was a boy. And in this moment, maybe he is a boy again. Scared. Soft. Too full of love and too afraid to lose it.
Maybe he’s more like Bruce than he ever wanted to admit. Not in the brooding or the brawn. But in that quiet, aching fear, of losing everything he cares about. Of saying the wrong thing. Of being the reason someone walks away. So he holds you like he’s trying to rewrite the moment. Presses kisses to the crown of your head, holding you tight, and swears, silently, he’ll do better. Be better. For you.

maybe that’s just randys code name he was actually there 🙂‍↕️
Musical has gaslit people into thinking Marcia was with some rando named Trip. So let me remind you. She Was Not. She’s with that one guy Randy. You know. Bob’s best friend. Who helped hold Ponyboy’s head in the fountain. The guy who backed out of the rumble because he couldn’t stomach any more violence. Who proved that socs could change. They were more than their environment. And he went on to became a weed-smoking peace ‘n love hippy with a volkswagen van.
Yeah, that Randy.
