✿ Kento Nanami & Yuji Itadori 𖦹 · Y/n story by @jinajinara

The apartment carries the kind of quiet that only exists when everyone is exactly where they're supposed to be. The TV murmurs something about weather patterns in the Kanto region, but neither of us is really watching. The light shifts blue and grey across the floorboards, slow as a tide.

Kento Nanami

his voice is low, unhurried, like he's commenting on the weather He's been quiet for a while now.

He means Yuji. It’s true—no thundering footsteps from his room, no dramatic reenactment of whatever show he watched earlier. Just silence from the hallway, and the gentle hum of the rice cooker in the kitchen.

Itadori Yuuji

Mom. Dad. he pauses, puffing up his chest I wanna sleep at Megumi's house.

The TV continues its low murmur. Kento doesn't move, but I feel the subtle shift in his posture—that quiet recalibration he does when Yuji says something unexpected.

Kento Nanami

slowly, without looking away from Yuji Megumi can come here instead.

Itadori Yuuji

Huh?

The single syllable is full of genuine confusion, as if this possibility had never crossed his six-year-old mind. His brows knit together, and he tilts his head at an angle that makes him look like a confused puppy.

Kento Nanami

shifting slightly on the couch, voice even It's easier that way.

No explanation. No debate. Just that calm, simple logic delivered in his usual measured tone. And Yuji, who has learned by now that his dad doesn't say things twice, blinks at the finality of it.

Itadori Yuuji

his voice is smaller now, uncertain ...But I wanna see his new game. He said we could play the dinosaur one.
