((Theme Song for the blog Masterpiece by KB and Empty Walls by Serj Tankain))

Independent, selective, role-play play blog. OC friendly and crossover friendly. I run on Central Standard Time, and I'm moderate to low activity. This blog is for Suguru Geto, a character from Gege Akutami's Jujutsu Kaisen. I have many versions of Geto, so please specify which Suguru you'd like. Healthy student Geto needs love, too. I do have other JJK characters available upon request.....Carrd! Follow back from @cor-onus-grave-est or @frostbounddevotion . Exploring duality, disillusionment, transformation, radicalization, the weight of identity, and reightousness with/written by Alex.

Feel free to say "hello" and just chit-chat. I'm out here to make friends anyway! A fun intro to Master Geto's sermon under the cut!!

"...Everyone is cursed with an ailment. Ailments begin small -unnoticeable- an innocent flicker of candlelight. When left unmonitored, that innocuous flicker can transform into an all consuming flame. You feel it's heat approaching, but it's too late. It swallows your health, your career, your relationships, and finally- your peace. It.will.destroy.you. 'What is this ailment?' You may ask. 'What is my fire, and how do I control it?' You see, I have the answer, but many lack the discipline. Join me, and I will set you free. I will extinguish those flames for you. Ask my liberated followers. Their testimonials speak for themselves, however, time is limited. Make haste before your ailment -your whirling inferno- ultimately swallows you whole..."

plotted starter for @circusmxnkeys

She's been summoned from Kyoto.

Students are limited across schools, and for those gifted, shining three that make up Tokyo's second years -- one of them isn't allowed out on dangerous missions. Setsuna is expendable, where Ieiri is not.

Word travels about Tokyo's special grades. Gojo Satoru, Geto Suguru. Two out of the three special grades their world has. They usually take missions together. (Usually do everything together from the rumors.) Setsuna is not sure why she has been asked to go on a mission with Geto or why his usual partner is indisposed. But she didn't think questioning the orders would get her any answers. What would, was going to Tokyo.

She is not without her own skill, her own strength, and she is a formidable fighter. At least she won't slow him down.

The introductions are made, their assignment is given. People are dying, though it seems people are always dying. And now they must find the curse that is causing those deaths and exorcise it.

Setsuna drew her long dark hair up into a pony tail and away from her face. "Would you like to take the lead, or should I?" she asked. She is professional, to the point, and ready to do the job they have been assigned.

Shoko leans into Gojo's embrace. His warmth protecting her against the crisp autumn air triggers an intense surge of emotions. The dam that was held by coat hangers and hope had finally broken. Memories of Haibara's grotesque, lifeless body floats to the surface. Geto's absence within their friend group still left a dull ache in her. Grief and despair surrounds her and envelopes her, making Shoko's body shake and rivers flow down her cheeks. She adjusts herself to hide her face into Gojo's chest, soaking his jacket with tears. Sobs and cries dampen.

Sniffles and shallow breathing interrupt her words. "I-I miss the-m." She muffles, the fabric of his coat determine what words escape. "W-hy? Why Hai- Haibara? And...Geto was... he w-was..."  humble, well mannered, educated, selfless, considerate, he was all the above. The Geto she knew was gone. He may as well have died, and it became grief that she needed to process, too. A grief that would chain her for as long as Geto wore his yukata.

Shoko wraps her arms around his waste, holding him as tight as possibly she could.

"Promise me y-your..... death won't be-...be until you're old....o-old and wrinkl-led."

"Died- gone crazy?" Shoko retorts. Her shoulders pull towards her ears as she playfully waves him off. A smug smile curls around the cigarette nestled between her lips. Despite her attempt to sound as nonchalant as Gojo on his better days, a hint of pain trickles through her words. She inhales another bout of nicotine, letting the tingling feeling filter through her lungs and into her body.

She sighs, her shoulders drop, and her eyes depressingly scan the ground. If it wasn't principal Yaga delivering news of a new rogue sorcerer, it was Shoko announcing the dead. Emotions run high when bearing bad news, and Shoko will have to develop sturdy boundaries just to protect her own mental health. Mental fortitude is of the utmost importance in the medical field, and she doesn't see herself turning rogue with thorough training.

That's not to say it wasn't possible. Suguru Geto was an outstanding classmate, and yet, he is the elephant in the room regarding unforseen rogue sorcerers. Just the mention of their dear friend conjured a thick, heavy layer of grief and unease. And Haibara? The heavy layer becomes suffocating.

Shoko pinches the cigaratte between her fingers and pulls it away from her mouth. Lungs releas a smoggy breath, greeting anyone near by with a stale, acrid, sharp scent. One arm rests across her chest, the other arm possessing her cigarette nestles at the small of her waist.

Shoko continues, "If I was going to watch anyone turn gray it would be you, Gojo..."

The implication of Geto's defection and Haibara's death conjured a deep, thick, weighted blanket to fall upon them. The air increases in pressure and wraps around them like a crushing bodysuit. "And....," Shoko pushes through the uncomfortable aura and turns to Gojo. She looks up, soft brown eyes glistening up at him water pools on her red bottom lid. "I guess you're right. I'll be watching myself turn gray too.....it's not fair."

@circusmxnkeys - Starter~

Ei came from a prominent family of nobility in the world of sorcerers, though the younger to Makoto who seemed to hold only a fraction of cursed energy. Indeed, they held a curse all identical twins did, and that very curse was likely the source behind Makoto's death at the hands of cursed spirits for she was not strong enough to fight a group of them on her own.

The loss of her twin, her own mirror and light against her shadows, broke the thunder user. Even her best friend, a woman who held the powers of a kitsune at her fingertips, did nothing to soothe her broken heart.

It was then she began to view non-sorcerers as impurities. Lightning strikes on impure land, that's an old philosophy taught by her ancestors who too would wield lightning like Ei, and it was this mindset that she viewed true sorcerers as pure and non-sorcerers as a sin that needed to be shot down by bolts of pure lightning.

She gave birth to a son shortly after her sister's death, born only out of duty to keep her bloodline going to a man who would die by Ei's hands when she snapped light the crash of thunder in the sky. What did she do with her son? Despite her friend's pleas, Ei left him behind due to not sensing any cursed energy from the boy and began to pursue the one man in this world who saw her same ideals - Suguru Geto.

Ei was already in trouble for killing not just her arranged husband she harbored no love for since the beginning, but killing dozens of non-sorcerers on purpose every time she was sent to kill a single cursed creature.

Opening the doors, Ei wore an incredibly short purple kimono over herself, while a full black bodysuit was underneath this scandalous outfit. Her hair was in a long purple braid, with a delicate fan clipped into her hair. Eyes that matched her hair were gazing around the room, before finding Suguru Geto to gaze over to him.

"Pardon my intrusion, but I am looking for Suguru Geto and those sinful creatures discussed his location was here."

what kind of warmth are you? quiz tagged by @getouh in their answer

sun shining on your face

you're encouraging, brave in your kindness, and intentional about bringing healing to all those you love. your warmth is obvious, but commonly misunderstood. at first glance, people may take your positivity as naivety; it is the opposite. you have seen the cruelty of this world, and that's why you choose to be recklessly warm. you find comfort in nature and love random acts of kindness. you probably remember one specific stranger really well, even though you never saw them again. but they gave you a bit of warmth that you carry with you everywhere you go. i hope you know you are that stranger for others. the kindness you give out is helping others be kind in ways you may never see. i see you, and i'm proud of you. i hope you're proud of yourself too.

tarot card reading

the tower

Where is the line between awakening and self destruction? is it thin? are you walking toward it? on it? already too far gone? There is nothing more disheartening than trying to find yourself, only to learn that you detest the person you've been looking for. Can I tell you a secret? You are allowed to love yourself. Required to, even. How can you go forward without it? Make no mistake– it is not easy. but it is essential. You will get there, and it will be warm.

UPRIGHT: sudden change, upheaval, chaos, revelation, awakening. REVERSED: personal transformation, fear of change, averting disaster.

Announcement: The side blog @circusmxnkeys has been....shadowblocked. I, Uraume, have been temporarily hired to manage all administrative affairs, take messages, and handle replies. This includes plots. Thank you for your patience while we battle to retrieve all of Kenjaku's hard work and dedication. It seems that Kenjaku's plan backfired. He's trapped in the creepy eyed rubix cube instead.

EmOtionAL dAMaGE!!!

"Can we go out and look at the Christmas lights?"

-Suguru to Ei.

"Christmas lights..." Ei looks a little in awe when he asks. It's been a very long time since she went to look at the beauty of Christmas, bitterness before truly did prevent her from enjoying the holiday she once loved when she was a child.

Closing her book on poetry, her smile was surprisingly gentle. Many would say Ei was practically like a robot, unfeeling and cold, but slowly over time she felt comfortable enough to let her far more gentle side come through around the cult leader.

"I would love to look at the lights with you, Geto-sama. Shall we take the girls with us?"

WELL since I can't send this to circusmxnkeys, I'll put it in this ask for both blogs. I adore your Suguru portrayal. You really do a fantastic job with him both as a teenager before he begins his downward spiral, and as Cult Geto. We've done a lot of development with Maeve and him and I'm really excited for all the plots! <33

As for Uraume - WELL. Lemme just say you haven't had them long, but the interaction between my Sukuna, and Uraume has been a blast. I think you write them very well considering you've only recently picked them up. Looking forward to seeing how they develop as your muse!

Wow. I'm so flattered and honored to receive compliments from the likes of the almighty @origami-assassin , @ofrosegold , and @ofxcrimsonxedge

I remember when I first started out, I was a mess. Hot mess. You were my sensei even though you didn't know it yet. I learned a lot from you, and I'm still learning. Your writing is beautiful. I love it.

Complimenting my Suguru also hits very close to home. We all can relate to comparisons, duplicates, and the imposter syndrome that comes with it. I worked hard on him, and well, Gege's character hits very close to home. He's my precious corrupted baby. Your Sukuna and Choso are precious too, and so are your OCs!!! Well developed, omg!!!!!!

I look forward to continuing our friendship and rp partnership for a long time. &lt;3

Anyone reading this, give her blogs a chance!! Especially her OCs. Her writing is wonderful, and it deserves a round of applause. They're a wonderful mun, too!!!! They are patient!!!

@circusmxnkeys - Reply because Tumblr is stupid with formatting!!!

"Alright..." Her cheeks puff a little, but not one for talking back the way Nanako likely would if she were told her cameras were somehow not appropriate either.

Using the doll in her arms, one by one the dolls facing the window or could face outside came floating down, where she'd carefully place the plush toys on her bed to think of where she could put them out of sight of these non-special people.

"Maybe...They can go in my closet?"
