[ ah— ]

yea [ that's it. ]

[gorb]

( Another series of ...'s that flicker and fade throughout the next few minutes. )

What happened to my body?

[rikugan]

it was taken over by an ugly ass brain with beaver teeth

[ that wasn't the question; he doesn't care. he isn't answering it. ]

[gorb]

( His fucking blood pressure. )

Don't you think I deserve to know?

[rikugan]

[ sigh ]

i gave it to your family

[gorb]

( It does not explain anything. But it is an answer he'll believe, and so all he can do is let that sink in. )

Thank you.

( What? He's not entirely an asshole. )

So it happened after then.

1/2

[rikugan]

i dont know the details but
either they just buried you or they didnt cremate you in time

[rikugan]

shoko gave me an earful over this

[gorb]

Well.

I did pinky-swear she could have my body after I died, so it depends on if you consider that binding or not.

( Wildly not the point but Shoko doesn't deserve Geto's ire and so he cannot drum it up. There's a headache blooming either way, behind one of his eyes. He misses her more than he'd like to admit. )

[rikugan]

[ that... is something they can both agree on.

he misses her too. ]

well neither of you mentioned anything to me
so how was i supposed to know?

[gorb]

Pretty sure defecting makes a childish vow null and void.

( He didn't want to be an experiment anyway.

Which makes this somehow worse. )

[rikugan]

[ why did he think gojo didn't turn his body over to jujutsu tech instead?

an evident mistake. ]

im sorry
i should have overseen it

[gorb]

I doubt they would have let you.

( He does not talk about Gojo much, but he thinks his girls have formed opinions regardless. )

[rikugan]

so?

[ they wouldn't have been able to stop him from doing what he wanted. ]

[gorb]

It doesnt matter now, does it?

[rikugan]

if it helps kenjaku is dead

[gorb]

Oh.

Good.

The vessel didn't know.

( And it does help. His breathing loosens, coming out in a rattle. )

[rikugan]

i didnt learn about it until recently too

its just a shame that i couldnt kill him myself

[gorb]

Because he sealed you?

[rikugan]

thats part of it

[gorb]

Was it Okkotsu who finished it? Your student seemed to think it would be.

[rikugan]

yea it was [ he's a proud sensei. ]

[gorb]

Well. Second time lucky.

[rikugan]

it wasnt luck

yuta has grown considerably since you last saw him

[gorb]

You say that like I wasn't impressed.

I was.

Unfortunately he just chose the wrong side.
