Is it so much to ask to have Suguru and his “Family” do a group villainous song performance???? I was robbed? Hello?

[grict]

An Invitation from the Cursed King Tell me, traveler— what songs drift through your homeland? What drums speak in thunder and whisper, what hands shape the rhythm of the stars? I have heard of your feasts, of golden stews kissed by spice, of fire-roasted fowl, of rice rich with history. I wonder—would they taste different upon a cursed tongue? You do not know me, but I would know you. I would sit before you, four eyes alight with curiosity, four hands eager to learn. Come to my palace, and I shall grant you clemency. Here, beneath the watch of my ruinous throne, no harm shall come to you. You will be honored, as a guest, not a prisoner. Sing for me, and I shall answer with song of my own. I have learned many instruments, each voice an echo of a life long past. The strings, the pipes, the drum and lyre— they are my courtiers now. How lucky you are, traveler, to hear a king play for you. How lucky I am to listen, to learn, to share in the art of a man whose world is far from mine. So tell me—will you come?

( there's a very important looking seal right at the bottom to show this missive is from the hands of the cursed king, himself b).

Miguel reads slowly, with great care and fine attention to detail.

He blinks a few times in succession. Places the invitation down upon a freshly cleaned, sanitized, and air-dried kitchen counter and turns around to make a beeline for his dryer unit tucked away in the utility closet above his washer. There are clothes to fold and the mindlessness of such a task meant that his thoughts would eventually relax and he could think seriously about the offer.

Instead, he sighs and flops the now unfolded boxer briefs back onto the foot of the bed, marching straight back into the kitchen.

Something gives him pause before placing his hands on it again. He hadn’t sensed anything earlier- No cursed energy… From the carefully chosen wording, to specific pieces of knowledge sprinkled about his poem, the archival quality of the thick paper, the sumptuous depth and luster to the oil-smoke ink that could only have originated from a traditionally crafted inkstick- All unique and singular threads that had effectively ensnared him within Ryomen Sukuna’s personal web.

He would be lying if he said that the invitation didn’t stir something within the cage of his ribs, as nebulous as it was. The kind of feeling he had believed he’d long outgrown, a spark that had branched out into sprawling Lichtenburg figures- Each fractal pattern charged with energy to spare. There was a verve building within his heart and mind, pulse quickened and thoughts raced. Silently he began pouring over what he could play, what he should sing- What kind of experience did the Demon King hope to jointly foster? That all could wait, for now. What was more important was his response- And he'd better make it a quick, but equally as generous acceptance.

Really forcing myself to be incredibly positive and productive in a realistic fashion, but also I am so mad-

I've just been very aggressive about it. Angrily filing my taxes. Angrily cleaning and dusting. Angrily changing bedsheets. Angrily folding laundry.

Angrily taking pictures for my renewed passport cuz I'm pretty sure they will find a way to deport me, angrily reviewing my Korean dual citizenship-

So sleepy, but wanna respond... It is almost 3AM, though.

i seem to remember a conversation we had back then.

so you changed your mind about it?

do you remember our encounter in paris?

you should know me by now.

am i the only one that knows the truth?

we had a lot of help back then.

your mom told me to look out for you.

you just love bringing that back up to annoy me.

maybe don't mention my past indescretions?

this was never going to work out between us.

i told you not to get attached.

i know more about you than you think.

i was there, remember?

i'm not about to forget all the shit you put me through.

you told me you were going to try and make this work.

remember what i said to you?

the last time i saw you, things were good between us.

you never mentioned this before.

that was the longest flight of my life, and you made it worse.

can i still trust you after all that?

at least we tried to make something work.

we never discussed what happened between us.

okay, but i'm driving the car this time.

i haven't forgotten what you said last week.

i'm still thinking about your comment.

i didn't realize it was you when i first saw you.

you seem to make a lot of enemies around here.

there's not much for us to talk about.

we worked it out last time.

i know you far better than you know yourself.

we have a long history.

i haven't told them about us.

you were the only person i could go to.

you know me.

this is bigger than both of us.

i can't stand your driving.

are you taking me to the place we had dinner last time?

that's not at all what you said.

didn't we agree on that?

i thought i made it very clear where i stand.

are these the same people that came after you last time?

are you still going on about it?

can we talk about it?

staying silent about it won't help.

you're the only person who knows the real me.

this is a bad time to talk about your problems.

Just giving a formal hiatus announcement due to my diagnosis. I’ve already made an appointment with the oncologist, so we will be discussing my upcoming surgery with him in about a week. Afterwards, we will have to schedule when I’m coming to the hospital and go over how long it looks like I might have to stay there. General estimated recovery will be 6 to 8 weeks (or more, seeing as it’s an invasive AND complicated surgery), so I’ll probably be out of commission for awhile…

I just want to thank everyone who sent me kind words earlier, your support IS greatly helping me process this turn of events.

I’m honestly scared.

I’ve never had a major surgery of this magnitude before, but I do have a history of having a high tolerance to strong opioid painkillers (like… I can DRIVE while under the influence of oxy or hydrocodone) and anesthesia.

I will warn them about that, so hopefully it won’t be another hurdle in an already difficult looking surgery plan.

I’ll keep you posted and thank you again for helping me through what’s proving to be a very difficult time of my life.

FINALLY, some good fucking news!

I might be moving in with a good friend of mine as a temporary (or permanent, we'll see how it goes) roommate and she's also dating my cousin, so he'll eventually come down from Portland after his work contract is finished.

I'm looking forward to it since she and I get along really well and their dog is in love with me, so *CROSSES FINGERS*

❝hiya miguel, remember me?❞ // i changed it a teeny bit but same idea. hello!!!

[HIEEEE, sorry for the late reply- Family has been driving my up the wall.]

"How could I forget," Miguel deadpans, still more than a little upset that not only had his fight with Gojo expended all of the Black Rope that had taken years to weave- But that he'd essentially run away with his tail between his legs.

Technically, he was only supposed to stall the man anyway, but it was the principle of the thing.

"Have you... eaten?" he asks earnestly, gesturing to a Portuguese colonial home painted in bright colors.

Miguel was guessing Gojo had a favor to ask, one that he personally didn't have room to refuse seeing as the other male had let him survive. They could talk business inside.
