The Zenin Heir's Guide to Handling the Six Eyes

CP: 5T5, no fixed roles

Zenin Kage, the Zenin Clan's heir apparent, was constantly told from childhood that he should regard Gojo Satoru as his greatest rival.

"The birth of the Six Eyes has disrupted the balance of the jujutsu world!"

Seven-year-old Zenin Kage, holding an ice cream cone, fails to shake off the white-haired, blue-eyed little shadow following him, and gets grounded for two months.

"The greatest threat the Zenin Clan has faced in six hundred years!"

At ten, Zenin Kage comes closer to death than ever before: he is scared to death by the Six Eyes glowing in the dark.

"A talent that strikes fear into the world of curse users!"

At thirteen, Zenin Kage secretly destroys a bloodstained bandage, only for young master Gojo to expose him by digging through the trash and snitching on him.

Zenin Kage: ...A rival! Truly a worthy rival!

In his second year after fleeing to Tokyo Jujutsu High, Zenin Kage watches a white-haired future junior student stubbornly cross the cursed spirits to greet him, and slowly closes his eyes. Why is it you again?

--Little Skit--

A well-known clingy white-haired guy at Tokyo Jujutsu High suddenly stops clinging.

On the first day without the clingy guy, Zenin Kage sleeps beautifully until three in the afternoon, cautiously sips a hot Americano, and spends six hours in the art studio in retaliation.

On the second day, he teams up with junior student Geto to play games until four in the morning, takes a sip of hot Americano, and spends eight hours in the art studio in retaliation.

On the third day, Zenin Kage starts to feel a little uneasy. He hears that "someone asked me what to do if your best friend has a crush on you," but can't make heads or tails of it. He downs a hot Americano and spends eight hours in the art studio (including fifteen minutes reading "Your Friend Suddenly Cut Off Contact? 10 Reasons to Check").

On the fourth day

Zenin Kage, cornered outside his dorm: "I heard that..." (about Suguru having a crush on you?)

The clingy guy, emphatically: "Yes! I'll reluctantly agree to date you! Don't get too excited!"

--Content Warnings--

1. The protagonist is somewhat of a heartthrob, so there may be a few one-sided crushes on him (not necessarily romantic).

2. Some canon villains differ from the portrayals created by jjxx. Please treat this as an alternate canon timeline. Any OOC is my fault (bows deeply).

3. I don't think I can label the POV as unknown, but this is a strictly wholesome, role-neutral pairing!

4. The little skit is around the middle, though I estimate the whole story won't be very long (proudly).

5. (Dancing) Just favorite the story to leave comments on each chapter!! Come play with me!!

6. Update schedule is in the announcements. At least 3 chapters a week, and I'll try to post more -3-

Note: The story will go behind a paywall starting with Chapter 31! Don't buy it twice! The chapter descriptions will mark where the paywall begins!
