    Summary

    Nobara let her thumb explore the little ridges and valleys dotting Maki’s fist, massaging the muscles there lightly as she felt the older girl’s fingers unclench. She smiled as Maki let her wind their fingers together.

    A quiet secret between the two of them in the dark of the empty room.

    She liked that.

    “This was so worth getting beat up for.”

    Summary

    “Your art is like, really good,” she says. “You should draw me!”

    Her request is equal parts presumptuous and charming; or, more accurately, presumptuous and charmed. It leaves Maki with a good opening. "What makes you think you’re more interesting than the trees, huh?"

    “Maki-san!"

    Nobara shrieks and tries to slap her shoulder. Tries, because Maki catches her wrist before the hit lands. “I’m plenty interesting! Come on, I’ll pose and everything! I’ve been told I’m good at posing. If not for all of this jujutsu stuff, I would’ve been a hell of a model.”

    Being asked to draw someone is annoying. It’s the sort of thing that Maki would shoot down, the sort of thing she’s shot down before. She’s refused Naoya a thousand times, told Gojo she’d only draw him if he dropped Infinity long enough for her to give him a good punch, and even said no to Panda the one time he asked. But none of them had ever looked at Maki like Nobara looks at her, like Maki is the earth and she’s a circling satellite, bright and shiny and ever-curious. She wonders where Nobara learned to do that with her face. Maybe she was in her school’s theater club in junior high. 

    “Sit still, then."

    Summary

    "You didn't have to do this, you know,” Nobara piped up, and it's quiet, quieter than she normally is. “I would've been fine until Shoko got back.

    Maki snorted. “Sure you would be. Now shush, let me wrap this up."

    Or, Zenin Maki totally and completely isn't in love with Nobara. Definitely not. But on the off chance that she was, she could think of a worse way to spend her evening than patching Nobara up after a particularly rough battle.

    Summary

    “Wha—?” Itadori blinks. She can practically see the gears turning in his head. “Like—like the daimyo?”

    “Mm-hmm.” Nobara smirks. “What can I say? I like ‘em powerful. And I like ‘em strong. I like someone who knows how to work a sword.”

    “O—oh! You mean like Maki-san, then!”

    Nobara develops her first crush, and learns to deal with something that falls outside her worldview.
