gansey is the kind of blorbo that’s not fun to torment because he’s such a pathetic pile of earnestness and abject suffering that u just wanna put a weighted blanket over his shoulders and tell him everything will be okay. his narration is all like “i am so lonely and love too hard and i’m dying but all i want is for my loved ones to be okay once i’m gone” & i’m like damn!! ok!! do you want all of my weed?? you can have all of my w
little by little, this curse of us being different grows more and more

i feel like this episode really drove home just how alone young gojo and geto were. it’s been a running theme in the series for a while that sorcerers are often left to fend for themselves from pretty early on in their careers, and miwa even mentions at one point that people tend to keep others at a distance just because of how dangerous their work is and it’s not worth grieving someone every other day. but even in a school setting, it’s so obvious that the teachers and other adults solely exist to deliver instruction and delegate missions - no advice, no emotional support, no real guidance despite how draining their lifestyle can be and how young the students are. gojo, geto, riko, and kuroi show up at jujutsu high after 3 days of constantly being on guard and no one is waiting for them. during the mission there was no sign of yaga or anyone else checking in on how they were doing or if they needed any extra support (sending 2 of their underclassmen does not count). and i know to a certain extent the hands off approach is because they trust in gojo and geto’s abilities but the amount of responsibility they were burdening literal children with is kind of insane. minor spoilers but geto’s character development from here on out should not come as a surprise to anyone. especially with future scenes that we will be seeing animated (such as a certain one in the morgue), i hope this season will make it clear that adult gojo being protective of his students and willing to defy the higher ups is more than him just being cocky and “the strongest.” jujutsu society and the system as a whole consistently failed him and his friends. he became the strongest because he had to be.
looking at ur parents knowing you never want to be like them and they looked at their parents thinking the same and their parents looked at their parents thinking the same its sickening to think about actually
