98 A Petty Enemy

[Third Person's PoV]

While Yuji and Junpei were discussing their likes and interest in movies, Yuji presented him his phone

"Here, put in your contact info"

Junpei was quite surprised but before he could do or say anything he heard his name being called

"Hm? Junpei!"

Junpei turned and looked, "MOM!"

"That's rare" she said while smoking a cigarette "A friend?"

"I just meet him" Junpei answered

"We just met but it looks like we'll be friends" Yuji explained while waving at her.

"So what's your name kid" Junpei's mom asked

"It's Yuji Itadori" Yuji said cheerfully

Junpei then took away the cigarette in her hands and threw it away. "I told you to stop smoking already." he said irritatedly.

"Okay okay" The mom sighed, she then turned towards Yuji and asked "Yuji-kun why don't you have dinner with us?"

"Hey! Stop bothering" Junpei said before the mom and him both heard Yuji's stomach rumbling.

They both stood there looking at Yuji who's stomach just kept rumbling to the point he started to get embarrassed.

"Do you have any allergies or foods you don't like?" The mom asked to which Yuji just shook his head.

The three then head towards Junpei's and the Moms house.

Meanwhile Mahito who was under the rubble wiggled his way out of there using his technique to change his shape.

When he got out he just started laughing "Hahahahahaha! Contrary to his appearance he sure is rash"

"He really put on a show" Kenjaku said appearing close to Mahito

"Geto!" Mahito called out to Kenjaku, "What the hell happened to you?"

Mahito asked when he saw Kenjaku covered in burn marks and had dirt sticking to his robe.

Kenjaku just sighed "Let's just say I have an enemy that's really petty and has a grudge against me"

"Why don't you just heal yourself?" Mahito asked while still sitting on the rubble feeling great after his fight with Nanami.

Kenjaku just shook his head, "It's not that simple, due to the nature of his flames it's hard to heal wounds inflicted by them"

Mahito then just shrugged his shoulder "Why not just kill him, that should solve all your problems"

All Kenjaku did was smile at that and say "I'm working on it, don't worry"

Mahito kept thinking about his fight with Nanami and said "He really was an interesting guy I learned some things thanks to him"

"Huh?" Kenjaku asked curious about what Mahito learned

"Even if I'm smashed piece by piece as long as I preserve the shape of my soul I won't die, consuming curse energy is also kind of self sufficient

And no matter how much I tamper with the shape my soul, it looks like there won't be any risk, next time I'll try all kinds of thing without an ounce of hesitation"

Kenjaku just looked at Mahito slightly before deciding to not say anything.

"Anyways give me your clothes" Mahito said as his own clothes got destroyed when all the rubble landed on him.

Ijichi, who was previously on a chase for the fly heads that escape, was talking to Yuji on the phone inside his car.

"HUH?! YOU'RE AT YOSHINO JUNPEI'S HOUSE?!... Isn't that a little…"

"It's fine it's fine, well anyways I have to go now, I'm about to watch a movie before eating"

"Are you crazy! A movie and eating?! I'll head over right now if you feel uneasy please run away immediately"

Yuji then ended the call but before Ijichi could do anything his phone started to vibrate, it was Nanami calling from the bathroom.

"Yes hello, I'm sorry" Ijichi answered in a shaky voice, nervous about his current predicament with Yuji.

"I'll send you my location, come pick me up… I'm in need of new clothes"

"Huh!" Ijichi said thinking he heard Nanami wrong, "I'm sorry sir, but did you say new clothes?"

"Just come and pick me up" was all Nanami replied with

"I'll join Itadori right away and come pick you up, I'm heading there now" Ijichi said sighing

"Is he not with you right now?"

'Shit' was all Ijichi thought, thinking about the slip up he just made.

Meanwhile Nanami just sighed and hung up the phone. As he did all he thought about was his encounter with Mahito.

"That curse spirit…He's a child…" was the conclusion Nanami came up with after remembering Mahito's childish antics.

Meanwhile Yuji was eating and reenacting scenes from movies he watched making both Junpei and his mom laugh.

It was too far into the night to the point Junpei's mom was laughing at everything due to how drunk she was.

After a few minutes of more jokes and acts, Junpei's mom was fast asleep on the table. Junpei went and grabbed a blanket before putting it on his mother.

"Your mother is a good person huh" Yuji said looking at Junpei's current action.

"...Yeah" was all he replied with.

"What kind of person is your mom, Itadori?" Junpei asked while looking at his mother.

Yuji just shrugged his shoulders "I don't know, I've never met her. I have a faint memory of my dad though."

Yuji said since his mother was never in his life… Yuji might not know who his mother was but we all do. He was taking backshots so his plans could succeed.

"It's because my grandpa was always there." Yuji said with a small smile remembering his fond memories of his grandfather.

His phone then started to vibrate, it was Ijichi calling, he turned towards Junpei and said "Wait a minute I gotta take this call"

After he was done, Junpei thought about his question and what he wanted to know. So he called out to Yuji.

"Itadori, You're a Jujutsu Sorcerer, right?"

Although confused, Itadori still answered "Yeah?" 'I'm allowed to tell him right? I hope I don't get into any trouble for this'

"Have you ever killed someone?"

Although shocked Yuji thought about it, would he consider the curse corpses he killed be considered killing. He then remembered Shoko's words and shook his head.

"I haven't"
