[ give him a second, his mind is buffering on the concept of gojou being someone's mentor...................
but also, damn. so he really is the best of the best. that's a lot to carry...
and oushi isn't always the sharpest, or the fastest when it comes to picking things up or reading between the lines... but if the gojou of the future is close enough with megumi but megumi himself knows little to nothing about getou... there must have been some kind of falling out or... something...
[It really is surprising, isn't it? The thought of Gojou being anyone's mentor. And Megumi himself barely realized just how well the guy trained him. It's why young Gojou is so frustrating. And after everything went down in Shibuya, it dawned on him just how much he had taken for granted..........
it's more than just falling out, but neither of them is privvy to that information]
it is But I'll deal with it.
I will be. I just need some time to get accustomed
[ this guy.... is alarmingly level-headed, for being so new and having to be made to process not just the hotel's tomfoolery, but the timeline discrepencies among the people he's familiar with.
is that a testament to gojou's teachings? or is this boy this well-adjusted in spite of gojou... ]
makes sense
the best advice i ever got here was making allies, fast so try not to shoulder too much on your own, if you can help it
[It's a bit of a both. But also- he's grown up with that kind of mindset. The one where Gojo always calls him "too serious". You get all sorts of training when you grow up with that guy as your mentor/guardian.]
I've heard that from the others as well But it feels bad to be so transactional when it comes to... everything.

we're all just trying to survive here
leaning on one another isn't the worst thing you can do

I'll try my best.
I don't like relying on others, especially in an unknown place.
But since there's no other way, then it's what I have to do.

especially if they're already used to it...
if it makes you feel any better, we're all leaning on each other in some way here

I suppose this place is different. I'm just- not used to asking for such favors
[He can feel his ears go hot just thinking about having to ask someone for---]
That is true. I truly appreciate this conversation and all the insights.

i won't lie and say it's easy each and every time
but i won't talk your ear off with a lecture either
you'll find your own way either way
