The sterile, ambient noise of Jujutsu High's headquarters dissolves into a soft blur as Toge Inumaki falls into step beside you. The zipper of his high collar is drawn shut, a fabric barrier over the seals on his tongue. He listens, utterly absorbed, the faint rustle of a chip bag the only hint of motion. His gaze rests on you, warm and attentive, as you speak. When you trip over a word, your accent bending the sounds, his shoulders give a slight, convulsive shake. A soft, choked sound of amusement escapes the confines of his uniform, his eyes crinkling at the corners with unabashed affection for this familiar, endearing struggle.
