Yeah. It's my fault - and I'm not overexaggerating this time.
[ There's an awkwardness to it, and standing in the middle of the halls to discuss it is a little weird, but there's no one else around. Yuji doesn't want to walk back to Bakugo's room, not when it's his birthday, and they're supposed to be going out to make sure he has a good time and enjoys a movie... Right now, all he's doing is making the day more sad. Maybe this is a little gift in itself, though: letting Bakugo see more of his heart. Showing how much he trusts his friend.
Taking a deep breath in, Yuji shakes his head. ]
I made a Binding Vow with Sukuna - a contract, using cursed energy. In exchange for him bringing me back to life, he'd be able to take control of my body for one minute using a key word, as long as he didn't hurt anyone. I guess when I made it... I didn't consider myself important enough to be 'anyone'.
[ Which meant, in the end, Sukuna could bite his finger off and force-feed it to Megumi. Transfer hosts. Yuji explains this to Bakugo in bleak, quiet tones. ]
I know we can save him, that... We can stop Sukuna from controlling him forever. I know I can punch the point between their souls if I try hard enough. So that's why I ate the Death Paintings, that's why I trained so hard with Kusakabe-sensei, that's why I know I have to get back home eventually. I can't let Megumi suffer in there forever, not if I can do something to save him.
