@2xcursekissed asked: patch, sender patches up receiver's wounds. ((hi!!))

Everything had happened so fast. There had been battles all over Shibuya and even though Toge knew that escorting and protecting the non-sorcerers was important, on the other hand it was frustrating to him how he was kept away from the others when they so desperately needed every sorcerer available. Especially after he had heard that Gojo Satoru had been sealed. He couldn’t just stay here! He needed to help!

Gojo Satoru was not only an important pillar to the sorcerer society, he simply was also important to Inumaki himself. It was Gojo-sensei who had taken Toge from his exiled clan, he was the reason he was able to attend Jujutsu High in the first place, he owed Gojo everything. How was he supposed to just stay here while everyone else was fighting to get him back?

With a little sigh Toge took a sip from his throat medicine, because even when he was stuck on the sidelines he still had to be on his guard and protect the humans. For now he had herded them into a corner while he served as the protective barrier between them and any curse that would find its way back to the surface. With him having exorcised all the curses in sight it seemed like things were quieting down a little, until suddenly he could sense the presence of a terrifyingly strong curse and before Toge could tell the humans to run everything exploded around him.

When Toge opened his eyes again he was on the ground, staring up at thick clouds of dusts obscuring the night sky. Everything around him was completely destroyed, all buildings collapsed and he was lucky he had not been crushed beneath debris. He knew what this had been. Domain Expansion. But this severity of destruction.. who could have done this? He had to keep moving, he had to help, but as soon as he tried to get up he finally noticed his heavily bleeding side. Turning his head to take a look at his injuries Toge was promptly confronted with the fact that there was nothing but a bleeding stump left of his arm. He must have been standing right on the edge of the Domain when it activated. How unlucky (or lucky?) could he be? With his head spinning Toge collapsed back onto the ground, pressing his hand to the remains of his bleeding arm.

No. Get back up. You have to help the others!, Toge scolded himself internally, but his body refused to obey him. It was covered in cuts and bruises and was about to slowly bleed out, maybe it had decided it was for the best to just accept its end instead of walking back into the fray to be torn apart by a curse. How pathetic. Toge was not scared of dying, it was something they were being prepared for every day at Jujutsu High after all, but he did not want to die while his friends were still fighting for their lives.

He was distracted from his struggle for consciousness when someone dropped to their knees by his side and Toge’s glassy eyes widened for a moment when he made out the face of his visitor.

Yuuta.. Toge couldn’t understand the other’s words due to the ringing in his ears, but he weakly reached out a hand to take a hold of his friend’s uniform sleeve. Already could he feel the soothing effect of Yuuta’s cursed energy as he was trying to mend his wounds as best as possible, but with Toge’s gaze wandering around he noticed all the sliced-up humans surrounding them, the humans he had failed to protect. He was not worth it, Yuuta should go and help someone who deserved it. Gojo-sensei! Yuuta would be able to save Gojo, Toge firmly believed that.

Raising his hand a bit more he managed to grab Yuuta’s chin, gently but firmly guiding his head to look at him and he could see the oh so familiar determination in his dark blue eyes. Toge knew that his cursed speech would not be powerful enough in his current state, but he still needed to tell Yuuta:

“Go.”
