itadori would be so excited because cool, a challenge? and with pocky? yum! he actually does the challenge correctly, by reaching the middle while surprisingly not touching your lips. heโs very proud of himself, and goes throughout the whole day with a pleased borderline smug expression. even though kugisaki rolls her eyes and tells him he missed the entire point of the game. ofc he knows that, he'll kiss you intentionally when he thinks the moment's right.

doesnโt understand why he would play this game with you when he can easily buy you and himself your own boxes of pocky. you explain to him that itโs fun, but he pretends not to hear because heโs too embarrassed by the entire idea -- he doesnโt want his first kiss with you to be through a game. if you get him to play, as soon as his nose bumps against yours, heโs out. if heโs grumpy, he will scowl and lose in the very beginning.
[๐ค๐ฎ๐ ๐ข๐ฌ๐๐ค๐ข ๐ง๐จ๐๐๐ซ๐]
kugisaki is the one to ask you, because she always happens to have a box on hand. sheโll shamelessly take any chance she can get to fluster you. it's a fun game the two of you play a lot to pass time. although sheโll get tired of eating the pocky-half with less coating, and will decide to just lean against you while you both eat the rest of them normally.

gojo would be all too happy to do the pocky challenge, because heโs a little shit, but instead of following the rules like youโre supposed to, he tugs the pocky stick away from your lips and eats the whole thing, giving you a kiss immediately afterwards. needless to say, you never play with him again, and he whines about it.
[๐ง๐๐ง๐๐ฆ๐ข ๐ค๐๐ง๐ญ๐จ]
nanami will huff at you and make it clear that he doesn't think highly of it, but when he finally plays (because he knows itโll make you happy), heโs not going to back down because the point of the game is to win, right? although, while heโs playing, he keeps grumbling about how childish it is, and that if you wanted a kiss, you should have just asked him.
[๐ฒ๐จ๐ฌ๐ก๐ข๐ง๐จ ๐ฃ๐ฎ๐ง๐ฉ๐๐ข]
would not even attempt. a blushing mess. it doesnโt matter how hard you try to convince him, he will. not. play. well โฆ unless you happen to ask him while heโs laughing and clearly comfortable. will always break the pocky before you get too close, which is fine with you, because at least he tried. and he looks cute when flustered.
[๐ณ๐๐ง'๐ข๐ง ๐ฆ๐๐ค๐ข]
maki smirks the entire. time. sheโs very interested in the game because one, free food, and two, she likes the adrenaline of getting close to you while simultaneously daring you to step away or continue. likes teasing you while playing, and she keeps constant eye contact. if by some odd chance that your lips donโt touch, she will kiss you anyway.
[๐ข๐ง๐ฎ๐ฆ๐๐ค๐ข ๐ญ๐จ๐ ๐]
inumaki does the entire challenge with an unfazed expression. he thinks he is not at all concerned about accidentally kissing you, and in fact, if he does, then good for him! usually youโre not as bold as him, so he doesnโt have to worry about it. but in the chance that you say fuck it, and decide to just go for it, he freaks out and his eyes get so large that you end up laughing and messing up. he will hide from you the entire day.
[๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ค๐ฎ๐ง๐]
also wouldnโt play the game with you, because he doesnโt like pocky, and also thinks he can kiss you whenever he wants. might play if you trick him to prove that heโs better than itadori. but youโre going to have to make him really jealous. would be a little shit about it, too. degradation kink get it, ig
