#jesus this post is a long. anyway my hobby is thinking about jujutsu kaisen characters ask me anything

[exile-on-uwustreet]

are you willing to impart shoko headcanons onto this humble follower?

oh my god thank you for asking i am more than willing. here goes

my hc that was confirmed last chapter!! is that while curses and cursed energy is sth she can perceive and research, she'd be sceptical about any connotations relating to the human soul, the afterlife, religion etc.

2. while i do ship her with utahime, i like the hc that she's aroace. she doesn't strike me as a person with much interest in romantic relationships or starting a family. even if she did have romantic feelings for someone, i imagine she wouldn't pursue it for the same reasons as nanami - not wanting to expose another person to the lifestyle.

3. so fucking emotionally constipated. it's not like she doesn't care or puts on a brave front, she genuinely can't bring herself to react to life ruining events with anything other than a smile and a wave. and then drown her feelings in alcohol

4. i wouldn't say she doesn't care about the students per se, but she's much less attached to them than the rest of the staff. maybe she keeps them at a distance on purpose, to spare herself the grief if she ends up having to dissect them later. or maybe she just doesn't have much interest in being friendly with teenagers.

5. i think it's likely she's from a sorcerer family, just a less relevant or retired one? i imagine it'd have to come up when geto went on his little murder spree if she wasn't. you know, in the perfect version of jjk where they got more interaction. still, she fit in naturally in the jujutsu world, like it's obvious that's where she's supposed to be.

whew i feel like that's enough for now... i compiled a lot of my feelings about her in this little angsty one shot too if you're interested <3
