    Summary

    Dusk comes down like a held breath and Geto Suguru chooses a different edge. The village lives. The phone call goes to Shoko, not Satoru. He walks away shaking and, for the first time since the Star Plasma Vessel, goes home—where soup tastes like metal, where his mother’s hand finds the old circle at his temple, where he realizes the work is turning him into a blade he can’t survive being.

    Back at Jujutsu Tech, Gojo Satoru opens an unlocked door and finds a room that’s wrong in the smallest ways. His Six Eyes catalog the absence; his body sleeps only when it smells like Suguru’s shampoo. Shoko prescribes seventy-two hours and triage honesty. Satoru leaves a dozen voicemails; Suguru sends one text: I’m safe. We’ll talk later.

    It feels like a promise and a goodbye all at once. They break the way stars do—far apart, still burning toward the same dark.
    When they finally touch, it isn’t an explosion, it’s a soft, practiced yes.
