A Certain Someone · 9d

“I often laughed, and you often gave me a dissatisfied look, until you pressed me to unfold my past before you as if it were a roll of pictures. It was then I felt respect for you. Because you unreservedly showed me your resolution to catch something alive in my being, and to sip the warm blood running in my body, by cutting my heart. At that time, I was still living, and did not want to die. So I rejected your request, promising to satisfy you some day. Now I am going to destroy my heart myself, and pour my blood into your veins. I shall be happy if a new life can enter into your bosom, when my heart has stopped beating…”

You’ve no idea how many times I’ve cried today whilst reading this particular part of your beautiful fanfic. This… left me speechless. Reading this reminded me of chapter 265, and this bit:

“At that time, I was still living, and did not want to die. So I rejected your request, promising to satisfy you some day. Now I am going to destroy my heart myself, and pour my blood into your veins. I shall be happy if a new life can enter into your bosom, when my heart has stopped beating…”

It reminded me just how much Yuuji wanted Sukuna to stay with him, and that even though Sukuna declined his offer, he decided to be a better person in his next life. The person Yuuji wants him to become. God, I love Skit and I’m already crying again.

very happy you liked this excerpt! this part of natsume soseki's kokoro really was so fitting for them, and it's a book i recommend. i get emotional about it a lot too, so you're not alone ;w; i love skit v much and they constantly make me cry so i get you </3
