[ After reading the letter, a quick message to confirm things he was unaware of. ]

Your fight with Itadori was about the Vegas trip?

[gimu]

[ damn. ]

yes, it was.

[tokakujuho]

You didn't mention that part.
What did you say?

[gimu]

why does it matter? what brought this on?

[tokakujuho]

It matters to me.
Please, Choso.

[gimu]

[ because it’s Nanami, he thinks back. because it’s Nanami, he sifts through message logs until he finds the conversation that curdles his blood to revisit.

rather than paraphrase, he simply sends a copy of the log with the kind of weighty finality of dropping a limb on the teacher’s desk. ]

[tokakujuho]

[ There's a strange mix of emotion as he reads the log. Less violent than when he read the letter, but not any less unpleasant or disturbing.

It's not their fault. It's not their fault. It's not their fault.

Reminding himself that both of the brothers have saved his life in different ways helps keeping himself from lashing out. ]

I wish you'd told me about it when it happened.
Thank you for sharing.

[gimu]

[ guilt roils up like spring water, buried but not forgotten.

to be human was to be messy, but oh, how choso hates the calamities he leaves behind him. ]

i was ashamed to.
and angry.
i’m sorry.

[ not ‘forgive me’, not this time. ]

[tokakujuho]

I understand.
Be good, Choso.

[gimu]

i always will try.
are you angry, nanami?

[tokakujuho]

Don't worry about it, Choso-san.
Again thank you for your assistance in this matter.

[gimu]

[ how is it that an honourific feels like a door closed?

he feels strangely cold. ]

don’t thank me for something like that
just go talk to him
