Our days were always filled with new and exciting experiences, leaving us feeling fulfilled.

For example,

Flone's eyes sparkled with curiosity as she questioned, "Woah, what is this sorcery?"

We are currently in a bathroom flushing the toilet for fun.

Currently, Gojo, Flone, and Kaguya were gathered around the bathroom, the two girls were fascinated by the swirling vortex of water as it spiraled down the drain. 

Although I do not know where all the things are going. I rather not think about it. But they couldn't help but marvel at the simple yet remarkable logic behind it all.

"I can't believe what I'm seeing! If I were to explain this back in my world and time. They would call me a witch or a heretic! But seeing this with my own eyes is amazing!" Flone exclaimed in awe.

But…it’s just a toilet that is flushing. Gojo thought.

"Is it really that amazing? It's just a basic necessity for both men and women to use this in the bathroom for daily needs," Gojo commented.

Flone's eyes widened in surprise as she exclaimed, "EHHH?! THIS THING?"

Gojo smiled and nodded, "Yes, it's called a toilet. It's one of the most hygienic and useful inventions of modern times."

Gojo explained with a slight pause, "This is a standard toilet used in…most modern worlds across the multiverse."

Flone couldn't help but pout as she said, "So this is the bathroom of the modern world? How cool! I wish I could use it during my lifetime."

“You can use it right now?” Gojo couldn’t help but say with a grin

"You stupid tease, I’m not a full human anymore, I cannot even pee or poop after my resurrection. How does that even work? But I guess that was natural since I was dead," Flone exclaimed in frustration, feeling helpless and perplexed.

Gojo raised an eyebrow, his gaze shifting towards Flone. "You want to feel the need to pee and poop?" he asked, surprised by her response.

"No," she immediately rejected the notion.

***

But before all that.

While Flone was out driving cars recklessly.

"What do you all think? Isn't Hayasaka Ai just breathtakingly beautiful in Kaguya Sama: Love is War?" Gojo asked with a grin on his face.

Kaguya's eyes narrowed as she looked at Gojo, already used to this typical behavior. Clearly reading Gojo’s mind and understandably knows what his intentions are.

"Let's cut to the chase, Gojo. How many women are you planning to have?" Kaguya asked, her tone laced with a hint of annoyance.

"Is the number of women really that important? To me, it's just a way to express affection and build—” Gojo explained  

“So you’re not satisfied with just us two? And you plan on getting another woman already. Do you even understand the words responsibility and restraint?” With her hands on her hips, Kaguya scolded him

"Just to be clear, I did mention my goal of having a harem and maybe numerous girlfriends?" Gojo said, shrugging. "But if it makes you feel better you and Flone are the two of the most important. I could tone it down to one-night stands for others."

Her eyes narrowed at Gojo, as if he had lost his mind. Despite her strict upbringing and understanding of different traditions and cultures, she couldn't help but feel a connection to Gojo for all the things they have done together. However, the thought of sharing him with multiple women made her restless.

But not once did she forget that Gojo was the one in control here.

"Kaguya, are you okay?" Gojo inquired, noticing her deep in thought.

Kaguya appeared lost in contemplation, her gaze shifting between the conversation at hand and the chaotic scene outside, where Flone was repeatedly crashing the car and swapping to another vehicle due to Gojo’s special care.

"I've been hurt before by people I trusted and cared for deeply, and I don't want to go through that pain again. Can you blame me for being emotional?" Kaguya's words carried a weight of past trauma and fear of being hurt again.

Gojo couldn't help but feel sympathy for her, and a sense of respect for her strength to vocalize her feelings.

"I used to only tolerate your advances because I feared being sealed away again.” Kaguya's voice trembled with emotion as she spoke, her eyes glistening with unshed tears.

"You have given me a purpose, a sense of belonging, a reason to continue living. And I have already started falling for you. I never thought I could feel this way again, but you have shown me that love is possible even for someone like me." 

Gojo wanted to retort that statement, but he abruptly dropped it. Kaguya had a severe case of being betrayed by her sons. Her viewpoint of having a loved one is definitely still twisted. But she is willing to change.

***

As I looked at Kaguya, I could see the pain in her eyes, and I realized that it was a bit foolish of me to talk about having other relationships with women. She had been through a lot, and her past experiences had left a deep scar. It was clear that she had a distorted view of relationships, and it was going to take time to heal those wounds.

Perhaps it was the current situation with Flone and me that made Kaguya more receptive to the idea, or perhaps it was the events unfolding around us. Regardless, I realized that I needed to tread carefully and ensure that Kaguya didn't feel betrayed or hurt again.

Despite my familiarity with the characters and their stories, I found myself utterly bewildered by their unexpected behavior. This is progress.

But I still want Ai Hayasaka.

***

This is but another day.

We were all lounging on the sofa in the living room, with Kaguya immersed in another manga and well Flone was dancing to music videos.

My mind couldn't help but wander to the upcoming world we were about to enter. Since this will be their first time in a modern world similar to mine, I want to help them adapt quickly.

With a sense of curiosity, I turned to my companions and asked, "So, we're going to a rom-com world which means we'll probably have to attend school. What are your experiences with school?"

"I've never been to school before, so I don't really know," Kaguya replied, her tone thoughtful. "That's why when I had the chance, I mentioned that I wanted to go to school while you and the old god were conversing about that weird wish."

"Wait, hold on," Flone stopped dancing and exclaimed with surprise. "Kaguya, you've never been to school before?!”

“Hmm?” Gojo looked at Flone

"From what I can recall, Flone. You were homeschooled and attended a church school. And if memory serves me right, you were a bit of a thug back then, Flone," Gojo commented with a sly grin.

Flone's surprise was evident as she muttered, "Huh, how do you know all that? You may not know my whole history, but you seem to know a lot about me—"

Flone's eyes widened in horror as she realized she had left her keepsakes behind. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHH, I left my keepsakes back in my—"

Gojo interrupted her, "Yeah, don't worry about that. I have everything stored in my ‘armory’ after, uh, our first meeting. I also went to 'retrieve’' them from your old home. It's all rightfully ours now." He grinned, taking out a large pile of loot he had taken from her home.

Flone let out a loud sigh of relief as she put on her beloved necklace. She couldn't believe she forgot it, but thanks to Gojo, she had it back in her possession. However, her relief quickly turned to anger as she realized the extent of Gojo's actions.

"You stormed into my home and looted everything?! YOU GRAVE ROBBER!" Flone yelled, her voice echoing through the room.

Gojo shrugged nonchalantly. "I mean, you're alive and technically my wife now. Might as well take everything valuable with us," He said nonchalantly, putting his hands behind his head as if he had done nothing wrong.

Flone glared at him but couldn't help feeling grateful for the things he had brought back. She put on the tiara that had been given to her by an omitted person and felt the power coursing through her. And when she slipped on the artifact earring, she could feel a burst of energy pulsating through her veins, making her feel light.

"Those look good on you, Flone. You look more like a goddess than a saintness" Gojo said, his eyes fixated on her.

Flone felt her face flush at his words. "Hmphhhhhh. That's not fair," she pouted, feeling a strange mix of annoyance and attraction towards the man.

But then, Gojo went in for a hug, and Flone couldn't help but melt into his arms. "Uuuuuu Kaguya needs some hugs too!!" she exclaimed, suddenly hovering over to her beloved companion and hugging her tightly.

Gojo couldn't help but smile at the sight of Flone and Kaguya together. But quickly shifted his attention back to the task at hand. "Although as much as I'd like to stay and watch you two cuddle, let's not forget what we were talking about earlier."

***

"We all seem to be clueless about modern school then." Gojo began, "We'll be staying at the Shinomiya's residence, which was one of the settings of the manga and anime of Kaguya Sama: Love is War. I'm guessing we are going to spend a day or two attending school, but the rest of the time we can explore and enjoy ourselves. However, at school we must behave properly, and act civilized. We also must never skip class." Gojo said, highlighting the last point about never skipping class / school.

Kaguya chimed in, "But isn’t everything interesting taking place during the school club? What will there be for us to do?"

“I don't know. Exploring?  The Shinomiya residence may provide us with events or activities to partake in. We will be checking out what the city got. This world lacks the presence of chakra and mana. So don’t go starting a war or any bloodshed. As for my own abilities, I won't be using them frequently and will only do so discreetly when necessary. I know none of us need sleep or anything, but we should get back to the residence when it starts getting dark.” Gojo clarified the situation. 

“Don’t we need some sort of currency to do anything?” Kaguya raised a valid point.

"I can be rich if I wanted to." Gojo honestly said.

"Oh, that's great! So does that mean we'll be financially rich in every world we visit?" Flone asked in amazement.

"I have access to an infinite variety of goods in my ‘armory’, but that doesn't necessarily mean I have cold hard cash for the worlds we will be traveling in," Gojo clarified with a smile.

“I can just sell gold, to get any hard cash. But I don’t think we need to buy anything. Unless you girls want something. Ah—” Gojo paused as he realized they needed new clothes. Since they only had the clothes when they were alive. Gojo's 'armory' contained a collection of kinky dresses. He had no intention of letting them wear those during their travels in the world.

"Forget it, let's have Shinomiya Kaguya and her friends buy us stuff since we are guests." Gojo nodded, amused at the crazy plan he had just come up with.

While their discussions have come to an end. Flone went to poke around some stuff. Gojo went to Kaguya, who was feeling bored.

“Hey, Kaguya, anything interesting you want to watch?”” Gojo asked, as he teleported next to Kaguya and wrapped his right arm around her waist.

"Well, I'd like to watch my world. You have it, don’t you? I know you intentionally hid it from me," Kaguya Otsutsuki responded.

"Really? Are you sure? It's more like a world that takes place after you were sealed." Gojo asked in surprise.

“That is fine.” Kaguya replied with a neutral expression.

"Are you okay, Kaguya?" Flone asked, joining the conversation and sounding shocked upon hearing about her world.

"I’m okay," Kaguya replied softly.

"Well, I hope you enjoy this anime. In my opinion, it's kind of sad," Gojo said with an unreadable expression as he set up the Naruto anime.

“Kaguya’s world huh? I wonder what it's like?” Flone curiously asked.

***

And so, we spent our time watching Naruto. It was entertaining to hear Flone shouting about how absurd everything was, but it was still very interesting, entertaining, and new to her.

"There isn't a single damn thing here that is about assassination or stealth. Where's the definition of ninja here? Why are they yelling their techniques and making such loud noises? This is more like a chivalry battle than anything!" Flone exclaimed, frustrated and confused by the loud and flashy nature of the techniques in the show.

Despite her frustrations, Flone was still marveling and getting excited from watching this amazing show.

There were moments we discussed things in the middle of the episode and laughed and cried. 

Kaguya appeared more neutral about the show, but she did show a greater amount of interest towards Naruto and Sasuke. She was intrigued by the fact that Ashua and Indra are the reincarnated ones and impressed by Naruto's constant efforts to be recognized despite his limitations and the mistreatment he received from the village.

"Why the hell does Naruto want to be a Hokage? It looks like a shitty position to me. At the very least, he should strive to become a king or an emperor," Flone complained, but she couldn't help but keep watching the show.

"I can't agree anything less, after all, King and Emperor are in fact better. But the word Hokage has a nice ring to it," Gojo commented.

“Though the Sage Of The Six Bowls sounds the best.” Gojo said with a grin

Kaguya looked at Gojo weirdly for a second, then went back to looking at the screen.

"Who is this 'Sage of the Bowls?' Are you talking about the ramen chef who kept making an appearance and selling bowl ramen to little Naruto?" Flone asked in confusion, trying to understand what Gojo just said.

"Don't undervalue the wisdom and feats of the Sage of the Six Bowls. He is the sole reason Naruto would never harm his own village because of him. Also, if I were to enter that universe, the first thing I would want to do is sample his six bowls of ramen," Gojo said seriously.

"Huuuuuhh? Is his ramen that good?" Flone asked in disbelief, tilting her head at the unbelievable statement.

"The food you girls have tried mostly comes from anime, I think. I'm grateful that Old shitty God who accomplished it, even though I have no idea how he creates organic and inorganic material from anime, materializes them into the real world, and allows me to materialize them. The armory is strange in its own way, as it is from fictional work, and I own it," Gojo explained.

"Heh, let’s try that ramen if we ever get there then!" Flone said excitedly.

"I wonder if it's as good as the pho duck beat," she thought.

"I don’t want to go there. You guys can go," Kaguya said, annoyed.

"No, no, no, Kaguya, don't be like that. We can explore and have some fun in that world. Maybe we can find a hidden ramen shop or discover some ancient Jutsus. There must be something you always wanted to do when you get to that world." Gojo exclaimed, his eyes staring at her through the blindfold.

"Infinite Tsukuyomi and the return of all chakra in existence—" Kaguya said ominously, with her eyes closed and a smile on her face as her mind started to consider possible strategies.

"Yeah, no. We’re going on a hot date in that world, the three of us.” Gojo said, interrupting her.

Kaguya opened her eyes and gave a small smile. Maybe it wouldn't be so bad to go back to that world, especially with Gojo and Flone by her side.

Flone nodded in agreement, her eyes sparkling with anticipation. "Yes, let's make it an unforgettable trip!" she exclaimed.

Gojo grinned, feeling the excitement and anticipation building up inside of him. "Now that's the spirit!"

“Wait, do we even know if we're going to that world, and what about the timeline?” Flone asked, tilting her head in confusion. “You said there’s a sheeepuuutin?”

“That does remind me, what if the off chance we happened to meet a second Kaguya Otsutsuki, I wouldn’t know what to do if she was an enemy.” Gojo answered her question with another question.

"I would absorb her immediately as a chakra fruit and strengthen myself. The other me in that world would undoubtedly attempt to cast us all into an infinite Tsukuyomi and hoard all chakra for herself, to use in her future battle against the Otsusuki clan," Kaguya said with a determined look in her eyes.

“Let’s talk more about this if and when we do get to go to the Naruto world. After all, my world traveling skill is completely random.” Gojo commented.

As the group were bantering about their potential adventures in the shinobi world, a brief video footage Narauto’s flashback of locals trying to kill Naruto in the name of a "fox hunt" began to play on the screen. The disturbing images were enough to make the Kaguya Otsutsuki and Flone feel anger and sympathy for the young Naruto.

““Can I kill everyone in Konoha?”” Kaguya and Flone both said in unison.

“OKAYYY, I think we should pause the show at this point," Gojo interjected.

“How about we take a break from watching? I know a good way to alleviate your mood.” Gojo tiredly said as he wrapped both his arms and hands around Kaguya and Flone’s waist.

The scene shifted to them in the bedroom, which Gojo had teleported them to.

The group decided to take a break from their discussion and spice up their night together.

A/N: I’m just going to let you imagine what played out there.
