I got inspired by Director Park saying that Geto was Gojo's first and last blue spring of youth, and then Geto defecting in a summer, and dying in a winter.

I just noticed that Miminana are wearing hoodies here:

And they're never shown wearing hoodies again when they grow up:

And they weren't wearing hoodies when Geto found them:

So they probably wore hoodies when they were smol and their Papa Geto who is a fan of baggy clothes went shopping for them. (Or maybe they went shopping together and the girls wanted to dress like Geto-sama)

I agree that they're very different characters. I've never thought about their similarities before besides the fact that They're both glaring examples of ENTP personality. So they're energetic, confident, loud, clever, humorous, friendly, and kinda flirtatious sometimes. (Gojo mostly with Jogo.lol.) But now that I think about it some more:

They're both very powerful, rare progidies and not the least bit humble about it. They love to flaunt it. They both dislike the system and rebel against it and they're powerful enough to do so but not powerful enough for it to be actually effective. They take great joy in annoying people (Or mostly annoying their resident XSTJ. WWX annoying JC, LWJ, & WQ, and Gojo annoying Nanami.)

They're both teachers with a band of ducklings following them around that include a tsundere (Megumi, Jin Ling), a kind, pure little bin who is a big fanboy of them (Itadori, Lan Sizhui), a blunt sassy queen (Nobara, Lan Jingyi). They both believe in hands-on learning. But actually, Wei Wuxian was a better teacher than Gojo lol. The environment WWX creates for his own ducklings is a lot safer than Gojo's. WWX does the heavy lifting in those situations and the kids watch. Gojo just throws them out there without explaining some key things lol.

With regard to other people's emotions, they both don't see some very obvious signs. Like how WWX didn't realize that LWJ was in love with him, or that JYL and JZX were in love, or that JC wanted him back in his life, and Gojo didn't notice Geto's spiral, and he didn't get that Utahime actually hated him, he thought their fights were just friendly teasing.

They both cover their sorrows with wide smiles, exaggerated goofiness, and humor while constantly reminiscing about the past.

So they do have some similarities. But I think that's where their similarities end. They're very different characters and people and occupy completely different places in the narrative. Even in those similarities, they go about them in different ways. For instance, Gojo's way of fighting the system was to work on the future generation since he knew the quickest way (killing all the higher-ups) would not have a lasting impact. WWX did not have that long-term way of thinking and outright rebelled without having any plan or any political power and support to do so. (Actually, in some ways post-defection Geto might have some similarities with WWX, too. For instance, Geto's plan also sucked in the long run and it was because it wasn't so much a "plan" as a desperate rage against injustice at a dark & desperate time in their lives. And, one key difference between Gojo and WWX is that Gojo is said to have relied on Geto as his moral compass, and even after Geto a lot of what he did revolved around Geto's impact. While WWX heavily and unbendingly relied on his own morals and ideals and was actually the one who changed LWJ's ideals. Much like Geto. Also Post- defection Geto's cheerful attitude with dark, intimidating undertones and his behavior towards Gojo resembled WWX's attitude and his behavior towards LWJ. Both WWX's and Geto's cultivation and technique took a toll on them, both of them went through traumatic events in their late teenage years and changed because of them and then tried and failed to stay with their loved ones in the place they used to love, both of them were hailed as prodigies in their highschool era and shunned and persecuted in their 20s when they defected from the society because they thought the system was corrupt and they had to protect the oppressed, doing a little bit of murder and necromancy and things in the process, both of them loved and were loved by the people who were with them in their exile, both of them were okay with dying by the hands of their beloveds.[Gojo & LWJ] But again, they too are very different characters) and WWX didn't particularly care about "changing the system" either. He disliked it. And his actions- whether it was using Demonic cultivation to avenge the Jiang or to rebel against the great sects to help the Wens- were against the system but his main concerns here weren't "changing the system". At the end of the book, he was grieved about how JGY was dealt with the same way WWX himself was. But that was it. He didn't do anything about "the system". He wasn't interested in political games.

And I don't think they have the same vibe at all. WWX is the protagonist with a gray morality, a kind heart, and self-destructive tendencies. Gojo is the mysterious almightly mentor who seems at the top of the world and out of reach. In regards to his own personal life, the loverboy yearning for his morally dubious dead beloved who became undesirable num.1 of their society is more Lan Wangji's area of expertise than WWX's. (Though LXC might know more about Gojo's exact problem)

And I'm so glad you enjoy my blog! Thank you for reading them and being so kind!

I'm glad we share the same favorite characters! I really like Gojo and WWX, too! (Especially lately I feel sudden surges of affection towards Gojo)

Oh, I believe enjoyers of tragic, angsty gay media with magic, lovable well-rounded side characters who end up miserable or dead, corrupt, broken systems and societies that produce broken, damaged individuals that end up miserable or dead, happy groups of friends that end up separated, miserable or dead, should unite! so I'd like to ask anyone who knows or runs a JJK/MDZS blog to come forward, please.

Nie Huaisang would have been a big fan of Liu Mingiyan and Liu Mingyian would have appreciated NHS's collection of... educational books so she could write more exciting and diverse Smuts. Shang Qinghua would have found his way in and NHS & he would definitely get along very well. Shi Qingxuan & NHS would get along like a house on fire. (Though SQX would not get a word of what was said among NHS, LMY, & SQH he would enjoy the vibes & be happy to be there) And WWX naturally would belong to this group and bring JC with him. I don't know, maybe SQX, much like how happy he was to find a Ming-Xiong, and mess with General Nanyang would have been happy to meet Jiang Cheng, whether Jiang-Xiong felt the same or not? Or maybe not? Like... he apparently hadn't tried to make friends with Fengqing so maybe he wouldn't try to make friends with JC either (even if he did I think it wouldn't have been an especially deep relationship between them. It would be more like NHS's and JC's) WWX, SQX, and SQH would drag in LWJ, HX, & Mobei-Jun with them. Those three would absolutely say nothing and make no friends. Mobei-Jun (despite WWX and SQX's many attempts) and LWJ (despite SQX's many attempts) would stare in a dead inside way and He Xuan would eat. (Shen Qingqiu would have loved to join them but Liu Mingiyan would turn strangely quiet against NHS's questions when SQQ was around, so...)

I'd love to see Xue Yang, Qi Rong, and Sha Hualing interact! I believe They would get along very well. I'd love to see them take care of Guzi together, too! (Guzi would end up taking care of them.)

(Then Sha Hualing and Xuan Ji would inevitably cross paths and have a nice girl in-bathroom talk wherein Sha Hualing would try to knock some sense into Xuan Ji and tell her to know your worth, girl and it would result in Xuan Ji going you know what?! Maybe you're right maybe I SHOULD let go. To which Sha Hualing would answer WHAT?! NO WAY! KICK HIS A$$!!)

One lotus root pork soup from Jiang Yanli would work wonders for Shen Jiu (who needs an older sister). And I think JYL, since she apparently likes to surround herself with tsunderes would be fond of him, too. Shen Jiu might have crossed paths with fellow street rat A-Qing. The hissing cats would bond and form the deepest, and strongest frenemy relationship and stick together. Then Shen Jiu would inevitably end up meeting Xiao Xingchen. This group would fix him. Before breaking him even worse because of the whole...you know,... Yi City Arc. Then he'd be adopted by Yushi Huang or Baoshan Senren. Maybe Yushi Huang could promote A-Qing to godhood. their combination with Pei Su, Ban Yue, and Pei Ming could have been interesting.

Teenage Mu Qing-gege would also probably know A-Qing, Shen Jiu, and Yue Qinguuan. and occasionally give them food and keep an eye on them. This combo-minus YQY- might have also occasionally bitched about others with each other. (So the god adopting Shen Jiu and promoting A-Qing to godhood could be MQ, too)

Jiang Yanli would flourish if she could join Yushi Huang and have a peaceful positive maternal figure who cherished her talents and calm demeanor. JYL, Ban Yue, and Pei Xu would have helped each other. she would also enjoy interacting with SQX, and Xie Lian. and SQX would like her very much. She might have also had a soft spot for Mu Qing and looked out for him and what he didn't say.

Wei Wuxian and Hua Cheng would get into passive-aggressive rivalry in talent, sass, fashion, batshit theories and ideals, and sass. they would greatly enjoy their rivalry though. Maybe through Hua Cheng, WWX would meet He Xuan, too, and enjoy annoying him. He might form a very forced, very one-sided friendship with He Xuan, Which after a while of WWX imposing himself on him, HX might or might not come to miss in WWX's absence.

Ling Wen and Jin Guangyao would have a pleasant talk over tea about how incompetent everyone else is and how they have to do everything around here. Then slowly, they'd be joined by Yin Yu, Zhuzhi-lang, and Shang Qinghua. And then This talk would then turn into a union.

Wen Qing and Mu Qing would meet each other while healing others and they'd start to be mean judgemental bitches together. They have kind hearts. They save everyone's lives, but they also shoot death glares at everyone & bitch about everyone while doing it.

Wen Qing might have also befriended Ling Wen. She might have been recruited by Qi Qinqi.

Lan Xichen, Yue Qingyuan, Yushi Huang, and Xie Lian could drink tea together and have a pleasant conversation without an actual word that would lead to any personal knowledge about them being exchanged. Though any two combinations of this group could have a vague and not very revealing but definitely insightful conversation with each other.

I know Liu Qingge, Jiang Cheng, and Mu Qing are a popular combo of hissing cats. But these 3 could stay together in one room for centuries and do not utter a word to each other or make any other attempt at human connection. Xie Lian though, a certified bitch- specialist might want to befriend Jiang Cheng, Shen Jiu, and Liu Qingge.

Literally anyone could befriend Shen Qingqiu (Shen Yuan, obviously) . Especially the cloud recesses trio, especially Jiang Cheng. Jin Zixuan would have benefitted greatly from befriending SQQ. (Or maybe not. Who knows.)

Xie Lian and Xiao Xingchen would have a very pleasant short chat. A-qing and Xue Yang would also love the other Daozhang. This would result in A-Qing wanting to protect the Daozhang from mean strangers and Xue Yang wanting to torment Daozhang as a sign of his gratitude for his exemplary manners towards Xue Yang. Luckily XL wouldn't stick around this long.

The Juniors would look up to Liu Qingge and would love to be his disciples. (Especially JL who feels life LQG kinda has a similar attitude to his Jiujiu and reminds him of his jiujiu) they would get into- hopefully- friendly rivalries with Shen Qingqiu's disciples, especially Ning Yingying and Ming Fan. In time those two would join the Junior group as well.

Jin Ling would follow Feng Xin around because AN ARCHERY GOD! And since the juniors stick together, so would the three others. And since Fengqing are always together, the two southern gods would acquire a band of ducklings.

Qi Qingqi would immediately recruit Mianmian. Pei Ming would try to hit on Qi Qingqi and immediately realize his mistake. They'd eventually befriend each other and Qi Qingqi would gain a place among The Three Tumors. That would lead to Qi Qingqi meeting Ban Yue and recruiting her, too.

After Ling Wen recruited Jin Guangyao as a god to help her do paperwork, JGY would find a solid place for himself in The Three Tumors, too.

(Mostly SVSSS/TGCF interactions:

Tianlang-Jun, with his interest in polyamorous dramas, would follow 3Zun dramas intensely. Pei Ming would get curious about what he's observing like a soap opera and join him in watching that trashfire. they'd have a great time eating popcorn and doing commentaries together, and then Tianlang-Jun would pull an uno-reverse on Pei Ming by giving him advice on how to court Yushi Huang.

Jian Lan has big maternal instincts, and Luo Binghe is above all, a baby. So Jian Lan would become LBH's new ghost mama and Shen Qingqiu would get along splendidly with his new ghost mother-in-law.)

And nah, there's nothing special behind my username I'm afraid. It's just me having an occasional kink for paradoxical deep™️ nonsense when it comes to picking names and writing but especially in picking names, lol. I was thinking that most of the time silence carries more words than what is said, and that silence holds only truth, and what is said cannot cover or convey half of what is left unsaid, and sometimes some things can't even be put into words. And how sometimes hearing the "silence" might be our way to finding the answers and meaning, and some meanings are "whispered in the sound of silence". I had something like that in my mind when I came up with "symphony of silence" (not in that order. Actually iirc I wasn't specifically thinking about this concept but rather of a paradoxical name when the name just kinda occurred to me) which I thought also has a nice ring to it as a string of words.
