He just got Gojo-sensei back. They were talking and hanging out not that long ago, wondering about sadness and depression. Yuji was trying to make up for lost time and enjoy the precious moments with his teacher, and now…
[ It's a simple response but enough to let Nanami know exactly where Yuji's head is at. So, his direction pivots — from his practical focus on finding Gojo to instead, now, to the goal of comforting Yuji. ]
It's likely.
That is something we have to prepare for while here. We are not as in control of our autonomy here as we are back home.
Yuji doesn’t know how Nanami can be so calm and casual about this, but it hits him. Gojo-sensei is going back, sent back to be dead, and that could happen to Nanami too. Nanami and Choso and Geto-san, since Yuji’s the only one here still alive.
He’s alone.
He’ll be alone.
It takes him a really long time to reply, and even then it’s pathetic. ]
[ ... Hm. He doesn't like the succinctness of that reply, has a bad feeling that Yuji is taking this on in a way that isn't productive. But he has no way to prove this either. It's just text... it's. Just text. ]
It's not. But I wanted to say that anyway because no matter the intention of everything else in this place, for me — my priority is always going to be you.
I'm dead. There's no returning to Tokyo for me. But you still have a life to live and a future to have. Right now, here in this place, you are the closest thing I have to anything resembling family.
Gojo-san is gone. I'm not. So, you are my priority.
[ Does he? He would've thought Yuji would've been more... touched to be called family by Nanami. But maybe Nanami was being too distant about it even then.
Ah... he can really be an idiot sometimes... ]
I know it's difficult to not be in control of these things. But I want you to know my intention at least. You are important to me.

[ Is it... obligation? Or is it family...?
Yuji can't tell through text, and he's a little irritated at himself, for being so blunt and upset right now. ]
