Somewhere along the way. [He waves a hand to dismiss the thought.] Maybe that's why I cover half of it up. It stymies some of the temptation you can't help but drive up inside of you! [Anyone with Jason's skillset can probably guess that this is absolutely a lie. Making up nonsense on the spot is Gojo's specialty.]

Of course, I don't get it, though.

[One moment, he's standing where he is. The next, he's blinked into place alongside Jason.]

I get it, though. You're distracted! If I take care of those guys down there, does that earn me some brownie points? I'm serious about the mask. I'll ask for it in a different color. I'm thinking a bright blue ... or maybe a purple ...

[As he says this, he literally tilts forward like the horizontal plane is under his feet even if his feet lift up off the ground. He's ready to move if he needs, but he's clearly enjoying the talk—and the clear opportunity for persuasion!]

( as someone who wears a domino mask under another mask for the dramatic effect, he can't blame this guy for deciding to blindfold himself. seeing some asshole walking through the sky with his eyes hidden definitely adds to the mysterious vibe. not that he keeps it going for long; he opens his mouth and goes on and on and on and on and jason doesn't know if it's his voice or his face or his ego but something is rubbing him the wrong way.

it's probably the ego. people who are full of themselves are either like that from getting every damn participation trophy in life, they're like that to cover something up, or because they know they've earned it. considering this guy is walking on air and doesn't seem even mildly bothered by all the shit going on, he's leaning on it being the latter.

jason squats down on the edge of the building. gestures down to the void creatures below with a hand. )

A'right. Show me what you got, and maybe I'll consider seeing about getting you a mask of your own.
