Summary
Toji auctioned his son to Naobito with a starting price of ¥7,000,000. Naobito raised Toji ¥10,000,000, dependent on his technique. Since Megumi was summarily orphaned in 2006 – by Satoru – he’s now free game. A child was bartered, and now a child will be displaced, without ever knowing of the 'money talk' had behind his back.
The tragedy of Megumi’s youth is not lost on Satoru. In fact, it’s painfully nostalgic, the notion of being stripped of your personhood before you can fully develop one. Megumi’s never been to school; likely can’t ride a bicycle; doesn’t, realistically, possess the bilateral coordination required to tie his own shoelaces. He still has his milk teeth, and yet – he already has a price. And the girl he’s with is, diametrically, completely worthless.
He would like to say his next move is selfless. That it’s about the emancipation of a child from shackles with which he is well-acquainted. And it is, to an extent. But in the end, this isn’t really about Megumi’s salvation. It’s about Satoru’s. Because the thing with power is –
It’s lonely.
(They say it takes a village to raise a child. It takes four powerful sorcerers to raise two.)

Summary
Suguru begins to wonder if it’s lonely for Gojo. Keeping an inch between him and the world.
Not an inch, a voice that sounds suspiciously like Shoko reminds him. Infinity.
But does it feel like infinity? When summer’s humidity swells to its peak, can Gojo feel the pressure? When a barrage of low-level curses ambushes them in Roppongi, can he sense their velocity, the twist of the wind? When Suguru grazes the immovable space between them – hands him a test paper, shoulders past him in the corridor, reaches out, unthinking, to slap him on the back – does Gojo know the warmth of Suguru's skin?
Then, on July 12th, in a sour-smelling alley in Katsushika ward, Suguru catches him. Hunched over, spindly legs crouched, a street-worn cat pressing her nose to his fingertips. It licks her sandpaper tongue over his knuckles. Rubs the flat of her forehead against his palm. Gojo hums, pushing a tangled cowlick back with his thumb, a serene little smile on his face.
Yes, Suguru thinks. It must be lonely.
(Trauma is complicated, brains are strange, and Satoru Gojo is not immune to either of these truths.)

Summary
“I’m a girl.” Three words, said plainly and subdued, and yet they have her folding at the waist, stomach aching. “I’ve always—I realised. That I’m not a boy. That I’m… a girl.”
Satoru doesn’t ask her to repeat herself, to clarify. She just stares, face still as stone. Time stops its forward motion, the whole world soundless, airless. Their table in this KFC, in Shinjuku, Tokyo, is a microcosm. Nothing else exists.
Then Satoru opens her mouth and says, “And?”
(Suguru tries to break up with Satoru. It doesn't work.)

Summary
The fans part, and Shoko’s heart stutters. Suguru can feel his throb in the tips of his fingers, in the soles of his feet. She’s ethereal. Hair a shock of gossamer pearlescence, cloudy pastel shadow around blue, blue, eyes. The bluest eyes they’ve ever seen. Somewhere between celestial paradise and Neptune, interstellar dust.
A deity indeed.
Every patron in the room hoots and screams. Her lips curl, her smile a unique sort of enlightenment. “Such a warm welcome,” she purrs.
Shoko thinks perhaps a creature like this is beyond comprehension. She turns to Suguru. Stretches up to speak directly into his ear. “I’d kill for her,” she says.
“I’d let her kill me,” he replies.
(One gloomy night in January, Shoko and Suguru encounter a divine being. They buy him peach juice.)

Summary
It sticks in Jack’s mind when he’s walking home that night. A man in a mask. Dropping down from the sky and making sure folks make it home.
It’s good. It’s something the neighborhood needs.
A part of him can’t help but wonder if Matty would still be here, had there been a man in a mask running around back then.
Or:
After his father's final fight, Matt Murdock disappears, leaving behind nothing but a broken cane and a pool of blood.
Years later, Jack Murdock pulls a man in a mask out of his dumpster.
