〝 i think that drawing is supposed to be you﹖﹖ it's kind of hard to tell seeing they way akari draws- ＂
〝 i'm sure akari would like that very much. she told me that she plans on making more for everyone else too. so you might want to get more frames if you want to display them all on the wall ＂ the sorcerer replied back with a chuckle
You’re really getting on my nerves, priest..
@sacrileum ＊ (Eyes slowly flicker towards the blonde. A scoff escaping,) Should I be getting one? Move already.
⠀⠀ ৎ ﹡ ៹⠀ @ilovemen2k25 ꓹ⠀⠀" why thank you! the feeling is mutual. would you like a reward for that? "
minato, who had been injured during the fight, laid motionless on the ground as the curses he dealt with were also in the same position around him. but there seemed to be an invisible presence that kept anyone from getting near the blond, as if whatever was blocking the way was doing it on purpose to protect him. though once the fog of the night had settled, there it revealed a dragon-like curse, its elongated body curled around the sorcerer as it lowly growled as a form of intimidation
〝 but you healed me right up and i'm as good as new. that surely had to have taken a toll on you given how injured i must've been.. ＂ minato reasoned, turquoise hues shifting to look at the clasped hands once he stood up thanks to yashin's help〝 i just don't want you to think i'm taking for granted what you did to save my life is all ＂
⠀⠀ ৎ ﹡ ៹⠀ @serepose ꓹ⠀⠀" why, there's no need to worry about me, i'm perfectly fine thanks to your help. "⠀ he expressed warmly, arms slowly retracting from the them. tucking a strand of golden hair, shindou soon stood and helped minato to his feet.⠀ " no, dear.. you strained yourself because of me, you received injuries to the point you had been unconscious. i'm sincerely sorry for putting you through such a situation. "⠀ his own hands held onto the calloused ones, likely due to his battles.
minato's body gently swayed before leaning against yashin for warmth, his fingers still combing through akari's hair in the process〝 you didn't end up pushing yourself too much right yashin﹖ ＂ the sorcerer asked before gently nudging akari after hearing her stomach growl, as if giving her the go to eat if she wanted to. the little curse, understanding, gave a small nod before going to a nearby dead curse's corpse and quietly ate it〝 i hope you didn't strain yourself too much because of me ＂
〝 it's hard getting used to this, having two different entities controlling me at the same time i mean. it feels like i'm being constantly tugged in opposite directions by both my arms- ＂
the sorcerer hummed in understanding as he listened to the kannushi's explanation. with how convoluted the rules of making a binding vow were, it only made sense that the other wouldn't be able to interfere and fully remove it, which relived him to hear in the back of his mind〝 what's your opinion on me creating the binding vow with akari﹖ ＂
⠀⠀ ৎ ﹡ ៹⠀ @serepose ꓹ⠀⠀" no, i have not. "⠀ he answers, reciprocating the sorcerer’s gaze.⠀ " i only cure humans and objects⸺ not sorcerers, especially one that involves a cursed spirit itself. this type of curse .. is all too new for me, but nothing i can't handle. "⠀ beamed the kannushi, idly adjusting his robes.⠀ " however, i am unable to remove it. if i recall correctly, you made a binding vow with it yes? because of that, i can only alleviate its influence on you and the weapon. that's as how far i can do. since the vow you two had acts like a barrier. "
〝 have you ever encounted a case like akari and mine's before﹖ ＂ minato asked, turning his attention away from the little curse in favor of looking at the kannushi beside him〝 or is this a first time experience for you﹖ ＂
Curing curses? Are you sure you’re not a scammer? :p
@sacrileum ＊ Whether I believe in you solely depends on your performance. (A smile remains on his lips, although it’s vague enough to not reveal how Gojo felt. Despite that it was probably obviously that he believed him very little. The sorcerer wasn’t lying, whether or not he could trust the priest, really did depend on whether or not the curse could be alleviated.) You’ve caught me, (One hand raised in his own defence. A laugh bubbles,) Call it a personal curiosity. If you can really do it, it changes things. If not, I’ll just bring this back to school and have it rot in a cabinet. (Satoru hopes to express that he could really care less about it. Although lips curl into an amused grin, a hum escaping.) If I was mocking you, things would be very different. Don’t you agree?
⠀⠀ ৎ ﹡ ៹⠀ @6THEYES ꓹ⠀（ ... ） thus, the chartreuse orifices fixate upon the accursed object. then, towards the sorcerer’s direction. the item *is* cursed, he senses it, sees the vile aura all too well⸺ yet, the hesitancy to accept it was patent enough .. making the blond question satoru’s intentions.⠀ " your principal did?（∙∙∙）and how shall i believe that the likes of you are not mocking me when priests like i are scoffed at by most sorcerers? "⠀ that may have been a shocking change in tone⸺ defensive, even quite baffled. the serene kannushi’s nowhere to be distinguished.⠀ " is this truly the intention? or perhaps it is to sate a personal.. curiosity? "⠀ the tone softens, it a genuine question too.
＊ ₁ @sacrileum: (The sorcerer’s hands slowly slide into his pockets. Leaning forward, watching carefully while listening beneath the blindfold that covered his eyes. Satoru was searching, yet he didn’t know what for exactly. However, the idea of curing cursed attachments just seemed too good to be true. Perhaps he just wanted to find something amiss, call him a liar, and then be on his merry way. It irked him by just how genuine this guy was, a quiet tune hummed. Finally, an internal shrug and he might as well simply entertain this notion after all.) It only makes sense, after all. (Lips curl into an amused smile, finally slipping out an item from his jacket pocket.) Principal Yaga requested for this thing to be purged of all its bad spirits and attached cursed energy. Do you think you can do it, Mister Kannushi?
