[ That goes for both of them, although Gojo can only guess how long its been for Yuji since they last saw each other. He’s not even sure himself – the flow of time in the Prison Realm is untenable, and it seems like the hotel operates on its own time completely. What’s been months for him could have only been days for Yuji.
And he has no reason to suspect he might have been unsealed. Nanami hadn’t indicated anything of the sort, and even if he’s sure they’ll figure it out eventually…he hadn’t seen any need to rush back to utter solitude when he could stay here awhile longer. Now that just feels like an excuse, one he’s going to need to address sooner rather than later, but not until Yuji is settled in. Not until they’ve been able to spend some time together, and Gojo can ensure that Yuji can just…relax and be a kid, for awhile.
When was the last time he was able to do that? ]
…Yeah. It’s good to see you, too.
[ More than he knows. Maybe more than either of them know, considering all he seems in the dark on, but his words are nothing but full of fond concern for now. He continues to dutifully scratch Yuji behind his ears, his own flickering on his head. ]
Nanami is here, too. We might even get a smile out of him when he sees you’re around.
