#seriously all of the shrine shinto miko gojohime fics have got it right

[alexiethymia]

I enjoy gojohime as a non-canon ship but what with utahime being a miko, and gojo being a ‘god among men’, and now with utahime literally making the strongest, even stronger...! Like seriously, is there something there?? 

Some fics pretty much guessed that utahime’s ct would be some sort of amplifier (as an explanation for why she’s only semi-grade 1, she would always have to work with other sorcerers), but it fits her overall personality as well. She was gojo’s support in looking for the traitor (and boy I am always weak for supportive ships), and supports her students really well such that they adore her. It’s pretty lucky for the sorcerer world that both utahime and gojo decided to be teachers, because whoo boy if they had ever decided to team up before now, they could have ruled the world. 

I imagine this may have been the first time that utahime and gojo actually got to (or were allowed to) work together. utahime would be useful on the field with other sorcerers, but I imagine that with gojo’s talent and overabundance of cursed energy, having utahime support him would have been seen as superfluous (and would no doubt have scared the elders). It’s nice that they got to work together now.
