    Summary

    “Now will you listen to me?” the stranger says. “How did you even get up here?”

    “Same way you did,” Yuuji says. He can faintly hear the sound of someone singing from an apartment below.

    “I doubt that,” the stranger says. His eyes narrow.

    Yuuji shrugs. “What are you two investigating?” Yuuji asks. “By the way, I’m Itadori Yuuji.”

    The stranger sighs. “Fushiguro Megumi. Please, head back inside.”

    “Alright, fine,” Yuuji says. He walks back to the edge of the building and looks down. “I just need a second to figure out how to get back down without breaking anything.”

    “Don’t hurt yourself,” Megumi says.

    “I’ll be fine,” Yuuji says. “I mean I don’t want to break the building.”

    “What?” Megumi says. Yuuji’s already flipped over the edge.

    Yuuji lands in a crouch in a patch of grass. He brushes off his pants at the knees as he stands.

    “What are you, a gymnast?” Megumi calls from the roof.

    “No.” Yuuji squints as he smiles up at Megumi’s figure in the distance. “I’m a firefighter.”

    Yuuji moved to Canada when he was 14. Kenjaku lost track of him. Canon happened without him.

    Seven years later, Yuuji comes back to Tokyo.
