I don't really understand why, in-world, people think satoru is an enigma? Personally, i feel like I don't always understand him because I don't always understand people, (let alone characters about whom we know about the same amount of information as the group of people around him), not because he's supposed to be a shonen hero and then is just a goofy, spoiled, stretched out teenage boy who is a little more careless than you wish he would be.

#I am never sure if I feel this way because readers are almost always victims of dramatic irony?#(or I mean characters are... since we who are not in the book understand them best but when we can't save we can feel like victims)#or if I am correctly interpreting the biases that prevent many of the characters from understanding him?#myy oc has biases too of course and part of the fun is outlining and exploring them #and I do genuinely know Satoru is Weird. Part of it is the close-to-enlightened thing. there's a lot of stuff he just doesn't care about #not in a way that is purposefully negligent #but where it just doesn't phase him? like I don't think he even holds grudges like normal people #it all flows through him #and it could be really weird when this is the same guy who also has a specific talent for annoying anything and everything #because he also knows how to get under people's skin #maybe he's just so sideways from what normal people expect #or that most people just don't think that much about others' motivations? don't step that far outside themselves?#because again having known people with this type of personality #it can be incredibly refreshing to be around someone who doesn't take things personally #and also doesn't care about a lot of worldly concerns/societal niceties #and is not telling anyone what they “should” do in the context of social norms #jjk #from the margins #io.myy #gojo satoru #maybe the message is i need to stop thinking about him
