Yeah, that's what I heard. [ Megumi hasn't been with Gojo that long, but he knows the constantly-rotating stream of short-term submissives was Geto's MO. ]
You're the first one of them I've ever met, though. [ Despite belonging to Gojo, who Suguru sees at least twice a week, so the fact that Megumi has never met another one of Suguru's submissives is shocking. ]
[ He can't imagine it's because Suguru-san actually likes him that much... They barely know each other? Maybe he just feels bad for him or something...
[ Without flinching, Megumi uses Gojo's first name sans-honorific. They've been together for years, and the trust and ease is there, including the gentled boundaries around Megumi's submission. He knows some doms expect it 24/7, but Megumi knows he would chafe at that expectation of service. ]
Maybe they figured we'd get along because of our ages. [ And Megumi doesn't have friends, so... ]
[ So bold… Yuji does use Suguru’s first name when they’re not in a scene together, but he’s still blissfully respectful. The idea of dropping the honorific still feels weird to him, like he needs more distance between himself and his too-nice dominant. ]
Do you think it’s working? I don’t know how long I’ll stay, but I’ll be your friend.
[ Something about that grin is infectious, and Megumi doesn't have a big smile in return, but he's definitely got one curling at the corners of his mouth now. Maybe he's blushing a tiny bit, too? ]
Thanks.
[ Rubbing at the back of his neck, Megumi gestures vaguely at the TV. ]
We can keep playing, if you want. Or we could watch a movie or get a snack. [ Gojo told him to be nice, and feeding one of their guests is pretty nice, right? Even if it's more like digging out leftovers made by private chefs because Gojo's estate is ridiculous, but that's still food.
[ Yuji remains utterly oblivious, just nodding his head at Megumi. Is this how friendship works? He's so good at making friends, Suguru-san is going to be so proud of him, isn't he? ]
Sure! I love films - have you seen Castaway? Or Human Earthworm? The first one is good, but I like number three, too.
[ This isn't the kind of movie you should watch with someone who you've just met, though... ]
[ But instead of rolling his eyes at Yuji with any form of aggravation, Megumi shrugs. ]
Sure. C'mon, they're probably in Satoru's room.
[ Satoru's personal suite is needlessly enormous, and Megumi spends most of his time there when Satoru is home. But Megumi will often fuck off to his own room when Gojo has company or when he's personally busy; the sub is appreciative of having his own space for peace, quiet, and a social break. It's more than a lot of submissives are ever allowed.
Without telling Yuji to follow, Megumi leads the way out of the room, down the hall towards the giant head of house's rooms. The closer they get, he can hear the buzz of conversation carrying on the two dominants' voices, rising on approach. When they reach Gojo's door, Megumi lifts his fist and knocks. ]
Hey. [ He raises his voice, not bothering with any formality. Again, it's the kind of casual behavior most submissives have trained out of them early on, but Megumi doesn't even flinch. ] You guys busy?
[ Yuji follows after Megumi, his eyes widening a little as he looks between him and the door before chasing him down. He just... Goes? To bother his dominant? The idea of knocking on Suguru-san's door and bothering him in any way is still overwhelming for Yuji, no matter what his dominant might say, and he can feel the way his stomach twists inside a little bit, nervousness and uncertainty making him hover behind Megumi.
He barely pokes his head inside when they're there, not wanting to get too close. He just... Knocks, so loudly.
How is that allowed?
Biting his lip, Yuji peeks in as Gojo-san leans forward, lifting his hand and waving. ]
Yo, Megumi! You can come in, if you want, Yuji-kun too!

He rubs his face. ]
I didn't think I was that bad.

I dunno, I've never had a friend before. [ That's not pathetic! Nope! ]
But you seem all right. [ High praise from Megumi. ]
no subject
[ Yuji grins, some of that innocent warmth coming back to his expression. ]
You're pretty all right too, Fushiguro.

Thanks.

Are you hungry? We can go.
no subject
I'm good on food, unless you're hungry. Or we can grab snacks for the movie. [ Because what is a movie if not an opportunity for popcorn and treats? ]
no subject
[ Maybe he can get Suguru-san to watch the series with him... ]
Shall we get some snacks?
no subject
[ Megumi sets the switch controller aside, getting to his feet. ]
C'mon, kitchen is this way.
no subject
[ Yuji jumps up, but then he hesitates for a moment. Suguru hadn't said anything about it, but... He throws his new friend a shy, awkward glance. ]
Should we ask them if they want food, too?
no subject
We can go check in, if you want. [ He distantly wonders if Yuji is feeling nervous about spending so long outside of Suguru's presence too. ]
But the house staff might've already brought them something.
no subject
[ Wobbling a little nervously, Yuji bites his lip before he tilts his head. ]
... Maybe I can just pop my head in?
