❝she's a pro negotiator❞

marri was now kneeling on the grass before her father, meanwhile everyone just wanted to picked the little girl up and hug her.

marri's bottom lip pouted out as she fiddled with the hem of her black shirt.

"now why would you break into one of the most dangerous buildings and grab two death painting wombs?", satoru questioned.

marri looked everywhere but at her father.

"welllll, you see...technically it's not called breaking in...I just walked in there. THERE WAS NO SECURITY! DO YOU KNOW HOW DANGEROUS THAT IS? if a five year old and waltz in there, imagine who else can, am I right?

also, choso's lonely!! I was just getting his brothers...and do you want people to start labeling me as a bad friend?! like I'm already not normal", the girl huffed.

"and plus, you're my papa, so I just do what I do best: copy", marri smiled.

"who was your accomplice?"

"my what?"

satoru sighed. "your partner in crime".

"I don't have on—"

"if you don't tell me, I'll take away your phone and every curse object until you—"

"yūji", marri immediately answered, to which itadori — who had gotten the crepes and popcorn from marri — had offendedly gasped at the betrayal.

"marri!"

"I'm sorry!! I have an obsession with curses and you know it!", the girl harshly whispered.

"yūji, my precious student...you're in on this too?!", satoru asked, to which the boy had shoved the sweets to megumi as he kneeled beside marri.

"I'M SORRY SENSEI!! YOUR DAUGHTER FORCED ME", itadori sobbed, to which marri had then made an offended face.

"wow yūji, and you wonder why I prefer s'kuna", the girl bitterly muttered, to which itadori had loudly gasped.

"you did not..."

"oh but she did", sukuna grinned, lowly chuckling as satoru cleared his throat, gaining the two's attention once again.

"marri, you're grounded, and yūji, more training for you", satoru decided.

"eh? that's it?"

"GROUNDED?! AGAIN?! I HELP YOU FIX YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH YOUR BEST FRIEND AND THIS IS HOW YOU REPAY ME?! the audacity", marri scoffed.

"oh my goodness. your sass is getting out of hand. how can a body so small contain so many insults?"

"just wait until I grow older", marri muttered.

"what was that?"

"nothing! I just love you so very much, papa", marri smiled, standing up as she started inching towards satoru, who took a few steps back.

"stop it right now. I know what you're doing and it's not going to work", satoru pointed, to which marri's head had dipped, her lips pouting as her eyes starting tearing up, making everyone flinch.

"my papa doesn't love me anymore. are you seeing this, sugu? after all I've done for this man", marri sniffled, to which getō had picked the girl up and patted her back, meanwhile marri laid her head on his shoulder.

"now now, satoru. marri was just trying to make the curse you got her feel better. just imagine being separated from your brothers", getō reasoned.

satoru sighed, scratching the back of his head as marri even let a few tears trickle down her chubby cheeks, making satoru instantly feel regret.

"okay okay!! you're not grounded, but what am I supposed to do with two extra curses? there's not enough roo—"

"oh, I've already thought about that. I was thinking we could build them a little house for all of them to live in so that hito doesn't have to live in the sewers anymore", marri quickly answered, her face smiling as getō wiped away the remaining of the girl's tears.

"isn't that taking it a bit too fa—"

"sure", satoru quickly agreed.

after all, he was a bit tired of just having random curses in the middle of their living room.

mahito grinned and gave marri a thumbs up, meanwhile the rest of the students were utterly baffled.

'the hell is going on?'

"yay!! thank you papa! you're the best", marri clapped, to which the strongest shaman had just nodded as he extended his hands out.

getō then turned around and walked off as satoru stood there, gasping.

"excuse me?! where the hell do you think you're going with MY child?!"

satoru stomped after getō meanwhile itadori glanced over at megumi.

"does that mean I don't have to do extra training?"

it didn't take long for a miniature house to be built right next to the penthouse that the gojōs resided in.

it was a two-story abode with five bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms.

"what do you guys think?", marri asked, as even inu moved in with hanami, jōgo, mahito, and the three death painting curses.

"damn..."

"I know right? I even picked out the furniture myself!!", marri proudly proclaimed.

"thanks kid", jōgo grumbled.

"yeah, no problem!! but umm...I kind of need a favor actually...", marri softly mumbled.

jōgo sighed.

"I knew this was too good to be true".

"well, it's nothing really! it's just...well...you know how some sorcerers like eat curses?"

"excuse me?", choso questioned, his face filled with pure confusion along with the others.

"WELL, NOT LIKE COOKING THEM AND STUFF, but like...you get turned into this black ball of yuck and get swallowed? ....you feel?"

mahito snorted.

"are you talking about that manipulation curse technique that the black-haired sorcerer uses?"

"YES YES!! THAT ONE!!", marri cheered.

"no way in hell and I going to be manipulated by a brat like you!", jōgo huffed, crossing his arms as choso and his brothers agreed too.

marri hummed.

"well...I won't entirely be controlling you....my technique's a little different", marri replied, swaying back and forth on her feet.

"isn't your technique the six eyes and limitless?"

"mmm...yes, but not exactly. but I also can't say too much, because that would ruin the surprise for when I beat naoya's as—I mean arse".

the curses laughed.

"if you are truly as powerful as you say, I'll let me one of your manipulated curses", jōgo haughtily offered.

"okay!! you said so, so don't go back on your word!"

"does it look like I will?"
