Daki I think to be the type to bully her crush
Like she would call you ugly
But her heart would always flutter at the sight of you as her words would be stuck in her throat
she would insult you constantly but when talking with her brother she would be like
"Y/N finished their work the fastest today! They're so cool and smart!"
or "Hey Gyutaro! Did you see that Y/N had their hair down today! They looked so pretty!"
And god if you compliment or be nice to her she is dead
Full on red-faced as she insults you but on the inside, she is on full fangirl mode
But if you don't get along with her brother then she will just hate you
Speaking of Gyutaro
If you and Daki do end up dating he would constantly be threatening you if you broke his little sister's heart
of course behind closed doors to not upset Daki
Daki is a tsundere at the beginning but once you get to know her she gets more flirty and confident
"Hey Y/N even though you're an idiot you still have pretty eyes and I think your cute so you better go out with me!"
Now I imagine Gyutaro is like his sister but instead of flat out insulting you he would act like he was annoyed with you
if you did something he would always say you were annoying or a bother
Gyutaro would kind of be a secret admirer as in he always stares at you and admires you when you don't look in his direction
he thinks you're really pretty but tries to avoid you always saying "You shouldn't be around someone like me" or "Don't bother talking hanging around me I'll just drag you to the bottom of the social ladder"
(No please baby lemmie give you kiss)
He knows his ugly so he probably won't bother to confess to you, so you gotta make the first move
If you were to compliment him in any way especially his appearance he would think you're lying right of the bat
he won't even take the compliment he would be like "No"
He would Uno reverse you but wouldn't want to look like a fool in front of you
If you got along with his sister he would just fall in love with you even more
If you did manage to convince him you felt the same way
he would be really shy during your relationship
if you allowed it he would definitely mock every single person he meets later in your relationship like
"Oh you're single how pathetic I unlike you have an amazing S/O named Y/N"
he would take care of you like Daki if you were sick or feeling bad would stay up all night just to make you feel better
Overall 2 tsundere siblings I would 10/10 recommend dating that have no idea what love is so please be kind and gentle with their feelings
Summary: you were shy but you still wanted to tell your crush Zenitsu that you liked him, so you began to put love letters in his school locker
Genre: Fluff?
Warnings: None
'AHH! Guys I got another letter!' You peeked around the corner to see Zenitsu holding another letter you wrote to him 'Another letter huh? This person must really like you!' Tanjiro beamed happily 'Yeah! Or maybe someone is playing a joke on you!' Inosuke yelled 'Don't say things like that!' Tanjiro warned 'I'm sure that this person loves you, they've been giving you letters for over a month!' Tanjiro exclaimed trying to cheer up his friend but Zenitsu was too distracted to listen to the boys since he was reading your letter intently 'I wonder who it is maybe it's Nezuko or Makomo the cute first year or maybe even Shinobu Sanpei!' Zenitsu questioned out loud.
Although you were happy he was excited about your letter you still felt your heart clench painfully that he would think of those girls "Maybe he'll be disappointed if he found out it was me?" You thought then walked to your first class of the day. Some of your classes were with Zenitsu so you got to admire him 'Are you still seriously admiring that crybaby?' Your friend whispered next to you 'What he's cute' you mumbled back a bit embarrassed for getting caught staring.
'So when are you going to tell him you're the one giving him those letters?' They asked 'I don't think I will he'll probably be disappointed that it's me' you spoke gloomily 'If he does think that I can beat him up for you if you like' they spoke completely serious 'Please don't' you said 'What about this, you write to him that you'll stop sending letters without writing your name and see what he does' they said 'Isn't that a bit mean?' You asked not wanting to crush your crush 'Nah. Just see what he does' they said plainly.
'Am I interrupting something?' Your Teacher asked 'No Sensei!' You and your friend yelled getting back to your work. The next day you decided to follow your friend's advice, as you walked to Zenitsu's locker you were about to put the letter in until you heard footsteps and looked up to see Tanjiro, and he immediately figured it was you 'Are you the person giving Zenitsu those letters?' He asked seeming very happy 'Please don't tell him?' You asked 'Don't worry I won't! You better hurry though I passed Zenitsu just a minute ago!' He exclaimed and you pushed the letter through the locker holes then hid behind a wall again.
You watched as Zenitsu walked to his locker still happy from yesterday that is until he read your letter, you felt too guilty to see how sad he would get of how cowardly you have been that you couldn't give him your name as you left to class, the entire day you felt extremely guilty for how you've gone about this, so while you were walking home you picked up a cake as an apology.
You woke up a bit later than you should have, so you were rushing to school making sure not to drop the apology cake, you arrived at Zenitsu's locker to see him looking around in his locker 'Zenitsu!' You yelled scaring the boy 'Y/N is something wrong?' He asked worried as to why you suddenly yelled his name 'T-This is for you!' You yelled presenting the cake 'F-For me?!' He yelled with a blush 'I wanted to apologize for yesterday's letter' you said looking down 'Wait yesterday's letter?' He asked 'I felt so guilty for saying I would never write to you and I even didn't give you my name' you spoke still avoiding his eyes.
'But I was the one who was giving you those letters everyday. I thought you would be disappointed if you found out it was me!' You exclaimed extremely embarrassed 'Why would I ever be disappointed that it's you? I feel so happy that it's you!' He exclaimed 'B-But the other day you hoped it would be other people?' You asked confuse 'That's only because I didn't want to get my hopes up! But please date me?!' He yelled as your face erupted in a blush 'I-If you'll have me' you said smiling at him, he smiled back 'Do you want to share the cake?' You asked 'I'd love to!' He exclaimed and you two went to a bench to eat the cake before class started 'Hey Y/N, would you marry me?' Zenitsu asked 'M-Marry?!'
Part Five
The following days Sanemi and Mitsuri were patrolling around your home the two Hashira felt as though they were married to you, you would wake up and make breakfast for the three of you, and sometimes if you weren’t finished the both of them would help you, Kanroji asked you out to get Sakura Mochi and it was an absolute blast for the both of you and Mitsuri even bought (Fav color) socks that matched hers and you’ve been wearing them every day. Sanemi and you made Ohagi that the three of you ate together and you haven’t felt this happy in so long, you were kind of feeling upset about the both of them leaving but the three of you agreed to send letters to each other and you would get to meet new people so that cheered you up, so the three of you had some lunch before you saw the two Hashira off and would invite the next Hashira to your home. The three of you were walking down the familiar path to where you would meet two more Hashira.
Before you even arrived at the spot you heard someone yelling loudly to another person, you could see Kanroji get excited by the voice. When you entered the clearing you saw two people who seemed to be opposites, one resembled a calmly flowing river while the other was a fiercely exited flame 'Kyojuro! How are you?' Kanroji greeted the fire like man running up to him, you looked towards Sanemi and noticed he seemed very angry, you placed your hand gently on his arm making him tense a bit then look down towards you 'Are you ok Sanemi?' You asked filled with concern 'I'm fine just annoyed is all' Sanemi mumbled to you, the two of you then went to join the group 'Ah! Kyojuro this is L/N Y/N aren't they cute?' Kanroji asked introducing you to the other Hashira.
'Yes, they are! I'm Rengoku Kyojuro! It's nice to meet you!' The man yelled obnoxiously loud and you couldn't help but flinch at how loud he was 'Oi! Talk quieter' Sanemi growled at Rengoku and the Flame Hashira's smile seemed to dim due to you flinching 'I'm sorry L/N! I didn't mean to startle you!' Rengoku was still yelling but its volume was noticeably lower, you looked over to the other Hashira who was still unnamed to you. He was looking towards the ground and the air around him felt lonely, you walked up to him and he looked down at you at your approaching footsteps 'I'm L/N Y/N what's your name?' You asked introducing yourself but he stared down at you and you could feel Social Anxiety all over him 'You don't have to answer me, you're here to enjoy yourself and relax!' You explained and you could see and feel the Hashira in front of you calm down a little.
Sanemi and Kanroji were off and you were leading the new Hashira's to your home 'So! Your home is surrounded by Wisteria flowers?' Rengoku exclaimed 'Yes it blooms year-round here like at Fujikasane Mountain' you explained and you could feel the energy of the unnamed Hashira shift to one of self-loathing, you looked towards him he had his eyes downcast with a solemn look on his face 'Oh! My home is just up ahead!' You exclaimed grabbing the two Hashira's attention as they looked forward and you watched as they both stiffened and took in your home. Kyojuro couldn't believe his eyes it was a feeling like he was a child again and he would go inside and see his late mother again.
Giyuu was stunned, the air around your home was the same when he was a child and Tsutako was still alive, or when he was training with Sabito. Your home was so comforting and warm it was reminding the two boys of their fondest memories where they were taken care of and loved for, as before you showed the two their rooms and gave them a spare yukata to wear, but this time you went to your greenhouse to take care of your plants, you went to your room and put on a sombrero vueltiao, a dark blue ruana over a light grey shirt, a pair of black pants and finally your espadrilles.
In your greenhouse, you were growing herbs, vegetables, flowers, succulents, and cacti (they were your favorite) you put on some gardening gloves and got to work, making sure all the plants were taken care of properly until you heard the door open and looked to see Rengoku 'Ah! Hello, Rengoku I'm just taking care of my babies you can stay if you like' you said spritzing a baby succulent with water 'Did you grow all these?' Kyojuro asked in a softer voice than before as he looked all around, you had some hanging from the ceiling, some latching onto the wall and a few growing in the ground and some in a planter pot 'What are these?' He asked and you turned to see him pointing at your potatoes 'Those are my potatoes. I heard from Kanroji that you love sweet potatoes. I don't mind making some for lunch' you said and couldn't help but let out a giggle as Rengoku reminded you of the sun with that big smile of joy he had on his face.
You harvested the potatoes and some galinsoga parviflora, caper, and corn to make for lunch you weren't sure if your other mysterious guest would like what you make but if he doesn't you'll just make something else for him! You went to your kitchen and placed your ingredients on the bench and other things you might need and began to prepare lunch. When you had just finished making the sweat potatoes you felt your silent guest stand next to you, his energy was curious this time 'Hello! I'm just making some Ajiaco for lunch, it's from my home country' you said enthusiastically looking up at the man 'Tomioka Giyuu' he said suddenly confusing you.
'My name is Tomioka Giyuu' he finally said 'It's nice to meet you Tomioka! I'm L/N Y/N!' You happily introduced yourself glade that he was comfortable enough to introduce himself 'Is there anything I can do for you Tomioka?' You asked and silence followed but you still looked up at him 'It's ok, take your time' you said with a patient smile and after a few seconds he spoke up 'C-Could I help you with the food?' He asked shyly avoiding eye contact, at this, you beamed up at him 'Of course, you can!' You said then gave the Hashira a task as you did yours, there was a comfortable silence between you two.
Tomioka felt very relaxed in your presence, he didn't feel extremely awkward to try and talk with you and you wouldn't get angry with him like Sanemi or make him sad by bad-mouthing him like Iguro. The two of you then add the last things then served the food and Rengoku joined you two as soon as he smelt the sweat potatoes, every time Kyojuro would take a bite of the sweet potato he would boisterously yell out an "Umai!" He and Tomioka both tried your Ajiaco and said it was delicious. The three of you were in the comfort room, you were talking with Kyojuro, and Giyuu was listening and joining in time to time, Cherry suddenly flew through an open window and landed in your lap you gave her a cherry as she cawed happily and you gave her soft head pats.
'Tomioka Giyuu! Rengoku Kyojuro! Demons have been staying around Y/N's home! Kagaya asks that you petrol at night! Make sure Y/N is safe!' Cherry ordered to the two Hashira 'Is there anything else you can tell us?' Tokioka asked 'No more information! Ask Y/N!' Cherry screeched out then flew out the window to probably sleep in the sun, the two Hashira then turned to you, and you explained the day a demon almost kidnapped you while mentioning that part you saw the two men visibly tense up 'But in the end, Sanemi and Kanroji saved me' you finished off 'Well that was very brave of them! I'm glad they were able to rescue you!' Rengoku shouted out and Tomioka agreed nodding.
'You two don't have to patrol tonight. I'm sure you two are tired so I'm sure you can rest until tomorrow night!' You exclaimed 'That would be atrocious of us to not help someone in need because of tiredness! I'm sure Tomioka agrees!' Rengoku exclaimed and again Giyuu also agreed 'Well in the meantime while the sun is still up, how about we enjoy the hot springs!' You exclaimed and after the both of them agreed and now you three were relaxing in the hot water 'This is very relaxing L/N!' Rengoku exclaimed crossing his arms and closing his eyes.
You could tell that both of them were pretty relaxed enjoying the heat against their tense muscles 'Did the two of you have a specific reason for joining the Demon Slayer Corps?' You asked them both suddenly getting curious 'Well in my family it is tradition for the oldest child to join the Demon Slayer Corps!' Rengoku explained and you nodded along, you turned to Tomioka encouraging him to talk, but the energy returned to self-loathing 'If it's a hard subject Tomioka you don't have to say' you spoke trying to comfort the quiet male 'No... I-I would like to talk about it to some' Giyuu began. He knew that if he kept on bottling in his feelings they would just overflow and he did want to get all his troubles off his chest.
'I joined the Demon Slayer Corps due to my older sister Tsutako getting eaten by a demon' he said and you could feel his energy unbearably sorrowful but you could also feel a sense of relief 'I'm sure she was an amazing sister' you said which result in Giyuu letting out silent tears, you moved to where he was and embraced him while combing your fingers through his hair, you felt Kyojuro move and hug Tomioka from behind 'I can't imagine how devastating that must of felt. How old were you?' Kyojuro asked his voice was filled with much sadness 'I-I was 13' Giyuu managed to sob out and you and Kyojuro both tightened your hug on the Water Hashira 'She d-died the day before her wedding!' Giyuu cried out shoving his head into your shoulder blade.
His shoulders were trembling with the force of his sobs, both you and Kyojuro held Tomioka as he let out what must have been years worth of tears. After a few more minutes Giyuu calmed down enough as you and Kyojuro stopped the group hug but were close enough to hug the Water Hashira 'I met a boy named Sabito he was amazing! He almost defeated every demon during Finale Selection' Giyuu started and you could see the fondness on his face recalling the memory 'But he was killed. I was injured as soon as the trial started... I don't deserve to be a Hashira I couldn't kill a single demon on that mountain, it would be better if I died instead' Giyuu said that with such confidence he must have thought it was a fact.
'I don't think so' you said kind of annoyed that he would think such a thing 'But-' 'No buts. I can tell that you've worked so hard to become a Hashira. Also saying that you're better off dead is an insult to Tsutako and Sabito's memory. Do you have any other relatives? If not that Tsutako will be forgotten. Sabito might have someone else that will remember him but if you were to die, then all the memories you shared with him will disappear you ranted on and cupped Giyuu's face looking into his eyes 'So don't ever say you wish to die ever again!' You demanded. Giyuu was at a loss you had reminded of that very important conversation he had with Sabito.
Tomioka could feel the tears coming again and latched onto you in a hug again and you returned the hug. Soon enough the three of you had to get out of the hot springs or else you would turn pruny all over, both Hashira were preparing to go out to patrol and you made a bento for the both of them and you sent the both of them off, but not before insisting they can wait until the next night but Rengoku was having none of that. So the Hashira were off to patrol the area around your home, you just hope the both of them will be fine.
When you met the quiet girl was during rehabilitation training
You were the same rank as her so it was an even match, so you two would be training for a while
After you two finished you went up to her to strike up a conversation
Maybe because you thought she was really pretty
Then she flipped a coin and looked at you
'Is there something you wish to say?'
And you then asked her about the coin and she flipped it again
But this time she only stared up at you saying 'Sayonara'
You stood still a bit awkwardly then got a great idea
'Do you want to exchange letters with our Kusagai Crows?'
She flipped her coin and agreed so you where off
So
You would get much more words from Kanao via letters
If she got heads to respond to you
If you two would exchange letters for a long time Kanao would respond and not flip her coin to decide and just do it because she wanted to talk with you more
And would get excited if you would send her another letter
Whether it be a cute jewelry store you found on a mission with a butterfly necklace attached to your crow being a gift for Kanao
Or this really beautiful meadow you saw that had a lot of butterflies around that you would like to take her one day
While exchanging letters you knew you fell hard for the cute butterfly girl
Whenever you would get injured and go to the Butterfly Mansion Shinobu would always notice you staring at her little sister Kanao
She would always tease you saying 'You better treat Kanao right' or 'If you just keep looking at her you won't win her heart'
But Shinobu thinks she can trust you since Kanao talks about you fondly to her and she also teases Kanao lightly
Now
How Kanao realised she's fallen for you is when she gets word that you're currently fighting Lower Moon 3
And she was terrified for your safety
So she ran as fast as she could to save you, she even ignored Shinobu telling her to come back
When she got there she felt her blood boil
Since you were bleeding heavily and your blade was snapped in half
Kanao's jaw clenched as she felt her muscles tremble with rage and lunged at the demon distracting it from you
Kanao was holding herself until you noticed an attack from behind her that she didn't see
So you rushed and took the hit for her 'Y/N!' Kanao yelled in terror and she picked up your body as you weren't moving
She checked your pulse and was extremely relieved to feel a pulse
Kanao completely forgot about the Lower Moon as it was going to attack the both of you
But Shinobu came in quickly poisoning the Lower Moon until it died
Kanao carried you the entire way back to the Butterfly Mansion even when Kakushi showed up she didn't want to let you go
She wouldn't let anyone bandage you but herself and Shinobu
You would be passed out for at least a week to recover
And during that week Kanao was stressed out the entire week
She would always be by your bedside talking to you quietly telling you about her day and wishing you would wake up soon
When you woke up Kanao hugged you tightly and cried for the first time in years
'Don't do that Y/N! You scared me!' She wailed and wouldn't let go off you for at least five minutes'
After that whole event Kanao couldn't live with herself if she lost you without telling you her feelings
So while you were outside she approached you
'Y/N can we talk?' She asked you striking up a conversation 'Sure what's up Kanao?' You asked standing in front of her 'Well... when you were fighting Lower Moon 3. I got really angry that they hurt you.... and I've been feeling my heart fluttering every time I'm with you, so.... If you feel the same. W-Would you like to be together?'
Kanao asked you and that was the longest you heard her verbally talk with you, you got so excited you ignored your injuries and brought Kanao in a tight hug 'I would love to be with you! If you'll have me!' You exclaimed happily with a wide smile
You felt Kanao hug you back and she put her head on your shoulder to hide her deep blush
Kanao I like to imagine shows her love by doing Quality Time and Words of Affirmation
Kanao loves spending time with you
The both of you are Demon Slayers so you two often go on missions and don't see each other unless you have to stay in the Butterfly Mansion to recover or you two get a mission together
Kanao doesn't mind at all what you two do
Taking care of the Butterfly Mansion flowers
Yes!
Doing some training and giving each other tips
Absolutely!
Taking care of Shinobu's fish when she's busy
Kanao already has the fish food ready!
Since Kanao got heavily abused as a child physical touch will be hard for her to let someone touch her but she gets there!
At random times she's with you she'll just say sweet things like
'You look very pretty Y/N' or 'When you do your Breathing Technique you make it look so graceful'
This girl will also compliment little things about you and notice small details no one else might not notice
'I noticed you've cut your hair, it looks nice' and 'Did you change your perfume? It smells lovely'
This girl might be super shy but I suspect she can be a tease just like Shinobu if she gets comfortable with you
Honestly dating Kanao would be a 10/10
If you get her out of her shell
Part One Part Two Part Three Part Four Part Five
Part One Part Two Part Three

‘Thank you so much…’ ‘(L/N). (L/N) (Y/N)!’ You replied ‘Thank you so much (L/N) for helping my husband get home’ Usagi the wife of the man you helped whose name was Sakkaku thanked ‘It’s no problem really’ you smiled at the lady ‘It’s getting late, would you like to stay for the night?’ Usagi asked ‘I would love to but I have to get back' you said ‘Are you sure?’ Usagi asked worried ‘Yes I wouldn’t want to worry my friends!’ You insisted ‘Are you sure those two are just friends?’ Usagi questioned ‘What do you mean?’ You asked confused ‘The way you said “friends” you thought about the two and I could tell they mean more to you’ Usagi stated as her husband? stood next to her ‘My wife here has a gift for predictions especially if they’re love related’ Sakkaku explained proudly giving her a peck on her cheek ‘If you want I wouldn’t mind giving you a free prediction for helping my husband’ the woman insisted and your curiosity got the better of you and you entered their home.
The two’s home was small but cozy as well ‘Your home is very nice’ you complimented looking around ‘Thank you’ Usagi thanked then lead you to a back room that had incense burning and some white candles were lit, she sat down so you sat across from her ‘What I practice is called Palmistry where I study a person's palm to give insight into their future’ Usagi explained and she reached for your left hand and started to inspect it ‘I can tell you will live a long happy life with you lovers’ Usagi said smiling ‘Lovers?’ You asked a bit flustered ‘Yes I think nine or maybe twelve’ Usagi spoke you were used to having more than one partner your grandfather and father did the same thing to make sure there would be an heir and it felt natural to you to have multiple partners but nine or twelve partners?! You were shocked.
‘I can also see that you meet them all by the end of this year, how exciting!’ Usagi exclaimed happily since Winter was almost ending and the new year would come soon ‘Can you tell me anything about them?’ You questioned curiously ‘Nothing specific other than they all will protect you no matter the cost, and they are all very strong’ Usagi said staring intently at your palm ‘Is there anything negative you see?’ You asked hoping your family won’t repeat with the new family you will eventually make ‘I can’t see anything bad happening with your lovers…. But I do see evil coming for you’ Usagi spoke in a serious tone ‘Can you tell me what that means?’ You asked ‘Not exactly it’s hard to pinpoint most of it is jumbled and weaving through other topics so it’s hard to get a grip’ Usagi explained apologetically ‘Well I think that’s enough predictions I can handle for the night. I should get going’ you said standing up ‘How about you stay for tea to think over what I’ve said’ Usagi rushed a bit desperately ‘But-‘ ‘No buts you just hang tight and I’ll bring in some tea’ Usagi said dragging you to the dining room.
Meanwhile, Sanemi and Kanroji were in their yukata as Mitsuri was finishing up dinner ‘Where are they?’ Sanemi questioned out loud ‘They should be back by now’ Sanemi grumbled out until your kusagi crow suddenly flew through an open window ‘Emergency! Emergency!’ The crow screeched out ‘Whose crow are you?’ Sanemi questioned as Mitsuri stood next to Sanemi ‘I’m (Y/N)’s crow! (Y/N)’s crow! (Y/N) has encountered a demon! Demon! Please follow me! Follow me!’ Your crow worriedly yelped out as the two Hashira looked to each other wide-eyed then as fast as they could change into their Demon Slayer uniform while equipped with their Nichirin blades ‘Lead the way’ Mitsuri demanded and the Hashira were off following the crow as quick as they could to save you.
Usagi and Sakkaku the two people you met were not real as while you were collecting flowers a demon used its Blood Demon Art, which started your unconscious hallucination. A demon had you completely under their spell as they carried you ‘He will be very happy when I give you to him, he might even make me an Upper Moon’ the demon said gleefully, then it felt the presence of the Hashira coming and jumped away from Sanemi’s attack ‘You better give back (Y/N) unless you have a death wish!’ Sanemi growled at the demon ‘No can do! That man wants this human!’ The demon yelled back ‘That man? Do you mean Kibutsuji Muzan! What would he want with (L/N)?’ Mitsuri asked in horror ‘As if I'd tell you!’ The demon yelled back then puffed out smoke from their mouth being careful to cover your nose and mouth.
The two Hashira followed covering their nose and mouth and Sanemi quickly cut off the demon's head being careful not to accidentally hurt you and Kanroji caught you so you wouldn’t land on the floor, after a few seconds you woke up yawning cutely while rubbing your eyes ‘Kanroji? Sanemi? What happened?’ You asked looking up at the two as Sanemi stood next to Mitsuri to check on you ‘A demon used its Blood Demon Art on you. Are you hurt anywhere?’ Sanemi asked after explaining to you what happened ‘Really?! I didn’t even notice!’ You exclaimed surprised fully awake now ‘We should get you home before more demons show up’ Kanroji said and Sanemi agreed as the three of you walked back to your home with Mitsuri still carrying you in her arms.
All three of you wrote a letter to Kagaya explaining what had happened and soon after you got a response.
Dear (L/N) (Y/N)
I'm glad to hear Sanemi and Mitsuri were able to save you from that demon. I have asked Sanemi and Mitsuri to patrol the area around your home for any more demons. I recommend that you stay inside during the night and if you need to go anywhere have it so that Mitsuri or Sanemi should accompany you.
'Well, Kanroji we should get to patrolling' Sanemi spoke standing up and the girl followed 'You two are going to patrol tonight?' You asked also standing up 'Well it's better to start straight away than wait until tomorrow night' Mitsuri spoke as she and Sanemi were eyeballing the still warm dinner, getting a great idea you grabbed two containers and a special snack you made before leaving then put the dinner and special treat in the container then handed the two Hashira their respected bento 'Well you shouldn't be slaying demons on an empty stomach so have this!' You happily exclaimed as the two Hashira's cheeks were pink, the both of them thanked you then left.
Mitsuri had been slaying a few demons she ran into and she felt her stomach growl embarrassingly loud so she brought out the quickly made bento you made, she opened the lid to see the dinner she had prepared but noticed the bento was double-layered and lifted the first layer and saw her favorite food Sakura Mochi with a little note.
Hey Kanroji! ( ^_^)/~~~
I made these Sakura Mochi that I and you could have after dinner, but I hope you like them, and if you want we can go out and get Sakura Mochi another time! ( ◠‿◠ )
'Kyaaa! (Y/N) is so cute and sweet! I can't wait to go out and get Mochi with them!' Mitsuri exclaimed happily finding the little drawings you did adorable she first ate the dinner then ate the Sakura Mochi, now feeling more full and started to patrol much faster so she can see you again and thank you as well as ask you out to get Sakura Mochi sometimes she would get so distracted by how cute you were that she would sometimes trip over or make a loud sound which alerted a demon she was sneaking upon.
Sanemi like Mitsuri had already killed a bunch of demons but had no trouble finding answers as to why Kibitsuji would want you and it frustrated the man, he wanted to protect you so badly and he couldn't even find out why the Demon King was looking for you. Letting out a frustrated sight Sanemi brought out the bento you made and lifted the first tier and was a bit surprised when he saw his favorite food Ohagi as well as a note from you.
Hi Sanemi! ヽ(*^ω^*)ノ
I made these Ohagi because Kagaya had told me they were your favorite. This was my first time making them so I hope you don't hate them too much. (−_−;) I was wondering if you wanted to make Ohagi together, make sure to stay safe! (*^▽^*)
Sanemi could feel his face heating up, you were just too cute for your good. He ate the dinner Kanroji made and it tasted really good, then he took a bite out of the Ohagi you made and was utterly stunned, you wrote that this was your first time making the treat but it tasted divine to him! There was no way you hadn't made this before. Sanemi quickly scarfed down the rest of the Ohagi and put the bento away and got up, he wanted to hurry this up to thank you for the food as well as ask for you to make some more Ohagi.
Once the two Hashira had arrived back at your home it was around 4 am, but the two were shocked to see you still awake '(L/N)! What are you doing awake you should be asleep!' Mitsuri cried out rushing over to you as you were having trouble standing upright, you wore a yukata and had a soft (Fave Pastel Color) blanket wrapped around your body while you were playing some music on your guitar 'Oh! Mitsuri, Sanemi your back. I wanted to stay up to make sure you two came back to me safe. I have bandages here if any of you two are hurt' you said standing up but not without wobbling a bit as Mitsuri panicked making sure she could catch you if you did fall over.
'(Y/N). You should have just gone to bed, we're Hashira we can handle ourselves' Sanemi chided but didn't seem annoyed at you 'By the way did you enjoy your bento's?' You asked with a cute tired smile, honestly, you were going to kill the Hashira with how cute you are 'Yes! I did! I loved the Sakura Mochi you made (L/N)! And that note you made was so cute!' Mitsuri fangirled cupping her pink cheeks 'I like the Ohagi you made as well the note was very sweet of you' Sanemi smiled down at you and placed a hand on your head giving you a little pat. You also began to blush at the kind words the Hashira said, this was some much-needed positive emotions on your end 'Mitsuri is it alright if we also call each other by our first names?' You asked looking up at the girl but not making any eye contact out of shyness 'Aww! (L/N) you're so cute! Of course, we can go by first names!' Mitsuri exclaimed happily.
'I'm glad you liked the treats *yawn* but I think I should get to bed' you spoke yawning between your sentence 'I'll carry to your room' Kanroji said already lifting you 'Why do you get to carry (Y/N) to their room?' Sanemi asked a bit jealous since this has been the longest he's been without seeing you since you two met 'Well you have blood all over you and I don't think blood would look good on them. Even though I bet they look good in almost anything!' Mitsuri explained then gushed about you not worrying much since you had fallen asleep. Mitsuri then took you to your room and set out your futon for you, as she was about to leave you grabbed her wrist 'Come cuddle with me' you demanded in a cutely tired voice, Mitsuri's face erupted in flames 'Uh... (Y/N) I have to get cleaned and change first I'm all sweaty' Mitsuri explained 'Fine but be back quick' you muttered in a deeper voice than your usual one since you were tired.
Mitsuri quickly ran to the baths and scrubbed herself extremely fast and changed into her yukata and went under the blanket of your futon and was thankful you two could fit, you immediately went into cuddle mode as you clung on Mitsuri getting in a more comfortable position. Mitsuri's heart was going a mile a minute with how cute you were acting and you must off felt her heart as you looked up to her 'Kanroji can I play with your hair?' You asked and the said girl felt like she was dying 'I-If you want to' Mitsuri stuttered out turning so her back faced you so you could reach her hair easier, you brought up your hand began to softly take out her three braids 'You know I really like your hair' you commented shocking the girl 'what?' She asked thinking she heard you wrong 'Your hair I think it's really pretty when I first saw you I thought your hair looked really cute, and that it suites' you and adds to how cute you are' you rambled off mindlessly weaving your fingers through her multi-colored hair, being careful not to make a not.
Kanroji couldn't believe a word you said ever since her hair changed color she's hated it she couldn't get married at all until she changed herself completely into a different person and was starving herself to seem more ladylike and it always made her unhappy but hearing this words from you she felt so many different emotions that she just started crying, and you hearing her trying to muffle her sobs you hugged her body close to yours tightly as you continued to compliment everything about her. Kanroji soon exhausted herself from crying so much and began to sleep. You hugged her form more tightly to you until you felt the tiredness consume you as you went into the wonderful world of dreams.
The three of you had gotten into a routine, you would wake up first to make breakfast for the three of you then you would take care of your plants in your greenhouse then you would spend time with the Hashira whether it be you playing some instruments or playing a board game, reading together, giving them a message or just spending time together in general. The week was ending and you noticed both Hashira were feeling down about leaving so you came up with the idea of sending letters together, which is were you are now as your Kasugai Crows were getting to know each other as the Hashira were ready to leave 'I wanted to give you two something before you leave' you said right before the three of you left your cottage 'For you Kocho I have this pouch filled with myrrh it helps with anger so whenever you feel angry just smell this' you explained handing over the pouch it was purple that had a brown string tying it together 'Thank you (L/N)' she smiled and you knew it was a real smile as she took the gift putting it in her pocket 'For you Iguro I made this scarf so you and Kaburamaru can keep warm!' You exclaimed presenting the scarf, it had the same pattern as Iguro's haori 'These are lovely gifts (L/N)' Iguro smiled wrapping it around his neck as Kaburamaru snuggled into it, Winter was about to end so Spring was close by but you wanted to make sure the two were warm. The three of you were walking to were the Kakushi would bring the new Hashira as well as bring Kocho and Iguro back to the Demon Slayer Corps.
The two people you saw was a girl with pink hair and green tips which you thought looked very cute, the man next to her looked very intimidating with scars all over his body with a pissed off expression 'I might need some more myrrh' you commented making Iguro and Kocho snicker grabbing the two other Hashira's attention 'Iguro how have you been!' The girl called out running up to you three and you looked up to her, she looks very cute 'I've been good, (L/N) has been taking care of me and Kocho very well' Iguro said smiling down at you and you smiled back 'Kyaa! Your (L/N)! I've heard so much about you from Iguro! You look so cute!' She said having a small blush as her words made you extremely flustered 'Umm. T-Thank you. Your also really cute!' You stuttered out still recovering and the girl's face also became red while Iguro watched thinking the two of you were absolutely adorable, while the three of you were distracted Kocho was talking with the male 'Shinazugawa you better be nice to (L/N) alright?' Kocho warned with her scary smile even making the said Hashira tense up 'What's so special about them anyway?' Sanemi asked glaring at you he didn't want to admit that you were very cute like Kanroji exclaimed 'They're kind so you should be kind, I was told from Oyakata-sama that they do this because they want to' Shinobu smiled as you talked happily with Iguro and Kanroji while Sanemi just stared.
Soon Kocho and Iguro were off and you were leading Shinazugawa and Kanroji to your home 'Well here we are!' You exclaimed as the two took it in '(L/N) your home is so calming!' Kanroji gasped looking around 'Well I'm glad it feels that way' you said smiling up at her until you heard Shinazugawa 'tsk' 'Is something wrong Shinazugawa? Do you need something?' You asked looking up at the man 'Are we gonna stand outside all day or what?' He asked impatiently 'Right! Sorry' you apologized walking to the front door and unlocking it to let the two Hashira inside, like before you showed the two their rooms and yours, you were going to tell them about your hot springs until it started to rain and there wasn't a roof over the hot springs so instead the three of you were chilling in your comfort room 'So you live here by yourself (L/N)?' Kanroji asked looking at you worried sipping the tea you mode for the three of you 'Yes I do' you said 'Doesn't it get lonely by yourself out here?' She asked 'Well sometimes, it was hard to get used to since my family was so big but it's nice that I can hear my own thoughts here' you smiled thankful you escaped your family 'What is your family like they must be amazing!' Kanroji chirped not knowing your mood soured at the topic 'Well they're like other families I guess. I-I'm going to get some fresh air' you murmured getting up before the two could speak and left to the engawa.
You sat down near the edge of the engawa but far enough not to get yourself wet from the rain, slowly you moved your yukata to show your heavily scarred body as you traced the damaged muscle, hearing foot steps you quickly covered yourself 'It's just me' you heard Shinazugawa say as he sat near you but gave you your space 'Ah, Shinazugawa I didn't mean to leave in such a hurry. I'm acting like a very bad host' you spoke leaning in on yourself to seem small 'You know my dad wasn't the best' Shinazugawa began and you looked up at him curios 'He would beat me and my siblings and was very angry and would make my mum cry, but she was so strong she had a small and weak body but would always defend us and get herself beaten instead' Shinazugawa smiled while talking of his mother and he turned to face you, as you were full on bawling and Sanemi froze you looked just like his mother small and weak, even if he was being mean to you like his father you were still so kind.
'My own father was the same' you commented and removed some of your yukata to show Sanemi your families abuse 'My father would usually smash his alcohol bottles over me and my mother would burn me with her lighter my sisters and Aunt would lock me in the basement sometimes for a few weeks, and my Uncle would touch me...' you trailed off into sobs and Sanemi was frozen you have been hurt so much you are far too good for this world 'I wished that I could be strong like you' you said 'W-What?' Sanemi questioned 'My muscles were hurt too much and gotten damaged too many times that when I tried to fight as a Demon Slayer the pain was unbearable and I blacked out. So instead I offered to help Kagaya by giving his children a place to wind down and relax. I only get visitors once or twice a moth and they only stay for a week so I guess I am lonely like Kanroji said' you rambled as you tried to focus on your breathing 'Is it ok if I hug you?' Sanemi asked and you stared a bit telling he was nervous 'Please do' you whispered desperately and the Wind Hashira who was characterized as being aggressive and threatening, carefully lifted your body in his lap and held you while running his fingers through your hair.
Sanemi at first thought of you as weak and small like his mother but he was remembered that just like his mother you were strong, he tightened his grip on you even though you are strong he needs to protect you no matter what he couldn't protect his mother but he can protect you and he will protect you, usually he would push away the people he loves like Genya but with you he feels like he physically can't do that 'Thank you shinazugawa you are very kind' you thanked giving him a tired smile that the Hashira thought made you even more adorable and his face erupted in flames being reminded how adorable you are 'I-It's no problem' Sanemi muttered growing more embarrassed by the second 'If you want I can leave you seem uncomfortable' you commented looking up at him while he finally looked down at you 'No I'm fine it's just been a while since I've held someone!' Sanemi rushed out 'Would it be ok if we cuddled tonight?' You asked face completely red from your own question as you avoided eye contacted and Sanemi felt as if an arrow was shot through his heart 'S-Sure' Sanemi agreed enjoying the way your face lit up and carried you to your room and Sanemi set out a bigger futon for two, he let you lay down first and nervously got under the blanket and he laid down extremely stiff.
'Shinazugawa is it alright if I try something?' You asked and after the Hashira gave you the okay, you gently moved Sanemi's head to your chest and held his face so gently as you put your own head on top of his 'Your hair is very soft' you commented already falling asleep with Sanemi's body heat warming you up, and the Wind Hashira was shacking softly as to not to disturb you, he then wrapped his arms around your waist and buried himself deeper into your chest, you were warm oh so very warm he could hear your heart beating comfortably lulling the white haired man to sleep.
When Sanemi woke up you were thankfully still asleep as he looked up at your face admiring how calm you looked asleep, thinking of a great idea he got up and went to the kitchen to make you some breakfast, halfway through Kanroji had woken up and after hearing about what Sanemi was planning she was more than happy to help seeing as the Wind Hashira wasn't the best cook. You had woken up to an empty bed and assumed you had just dreamed up the events of last night as you tightened your yukata around you and went to the kitchen to make breakfast, but once you entered the kitchen you were shocked to see Kanroji and Shinazugawa finishing up making pancakes '(L/N)! You shouldn't be here, we were going to surprise you in bed!' Kanroji whined pointing at you accusingly and Sanemi looked a little disappointed you woke up early 'Well this is still a surprise, if you two wanted breakfast you could've woken me up' you spoke letting out a high pitched yawn as the Hashira couldn't believe how cute you are 'That wouldn't work since we wanted to make breakfast for you' Shinazugawa explained putting the finished pancakes on the small dining table ushering you to sit down and eat and you did so 'After our talk last night I've decided that you will be the one relaxing this week' Sanemi stated shocking you 'You don't have to do that Shinazu-' you started but was cut off 'I was also wondering if we could call each other by our first names?' Sanemi asked shyly.
'That's fine with me Sanemi' you said trying out the name on your tongue and Sanemi smiled warmly, while Kanroji was squealing internally at how you two would be so cute together for some reason she felt sad for a second she doesn't know why but then she realized she was falling for you, she was falling so fast and she's already losing you to Sanemi but she hasn't lost yet, with a determined look Kanroji picks you up while Sanemi was washing the dirty dishes and she takes you to the hot springs 'Um. Kanroji aren't I heavy?' You asked but it seemed the girl wasn't struggling at all 'Not at all (L/N) you don't weigh anything to me!' Kanroji exclaimed placing you back on the floor as you entered your hot springs 'You get yourself comfortable and I'll join you!' Kanroji declared walking back to the changing room, and you removed your yukata and folded it neatly near the edge and dipped yourself in the warm pool of water until your head was visible and soon Kanroji had joined you.
'(L/N)! Why are you hiding? You don't have to!' Kanroji shouted out with a pout you giggled at how childish she was acting "Sanemi didn't react too bad when I showed him my scars so maybe Kanroji will be the same!" You thought hopefully then finally revealed your heavily scarred body and Kanroji let out a shocked gasp '(Y/N)! Who could have done this to you?!' She asked gently placing her hands on your shoulders as to not irritate your skin 'My uh..... My family did this. That's why I left so suddenly when you brought them up' you explained with a wobbly smile not knowing that your words stung deep, she was the one that caused you to remember such pain, then she remembered a conversation she had with the Wind Hashira before you entered the kitchen.
'Hey Kanroji!' Sanemi called out to the girl while she was flipping a pancake 'Yes Shinazugawa?' '(L/N) didn't have the best of day yesterday so would you mind helping me make this week about (L/N) instead?' Sanemi asked in a smooth tone 'Really? Of course do you know why yesterday was a bad day?' Kanroji asked worried over you 'Yeah I'm pretty sure the topic of family for them is a bad one so maybe don't bring that up around them ok?' Sanemi asked and Kanroji remembered the day before when you suddenly left after she mentioned your family, of course at the time she was extremely worried that your mood suddenly worsened but she didn't want to pry or make you uncomfortable so instead she let Sanemi see you.
Kanroji was suddenly brought back to the present when you pinched her cheek and the girl engulfed you in a hug 'I'm so sorry if I brought up bad memories I just wanted to get to know you more! But like Shinazugawa said this week is all about you!' Kanroji apologized then got a towel and lifted you up then settled you down on a rock then began to softly rub the wet cloth on your body, while cleaning your body Kanroji would kiss some of your scars some were ticklish which you would try to suppress your giggles but Kanroji would just tickle you more until you were crying for laughing too much 'I just can't believe this could happen' Kanroji said hugging your back and placing her head on your shoulder, while you tried to calm down your laughing fit and a small blush on your face 'You can't believe what could happen?' You asked leaning your head on hers 'That someone could hurt someone as kind and beautiful as you' Kanroji muttered hugging you more tightly while burying her head in your shoulder, at her comment you tensed up then smiled.
You turned your body to face Kanroji and cupped her face 'I don't think it's unbelievable, many people hurt others whether they want to or not, whether they are beautiful ugly kind or mean they'll all get hurt someway or another, you just have to figure out if they meant it or not and decide if you forgive them. I haven't talk with any of my family members since I came to Japan and what they did to me I can never forget and I'm not sure if I'm ready to forgive.... but I'd be willing to try' you stated smiling warmly at Kanroji. Then the front door to the Hot Springs was slammed open and you and Kanroji looked to see Sanemi with a towel wrapped around his waist as he stared at you two 'Ah! Sanemi! Sorry did you want to use the spring?' You asked not noticing Sanemi's face become covered in a blush as he threw a towel at your face 'Cover yourself or stay in the spring!' he yelled and you smiled walking back to the hot springs submerging your body again as Kanroji joined you sitting close but far enough to give you space.
Soon Sanemi joined you two staying close while occasionally glaring at Kanroji 'So what were you two talking about?' Sanemi asked 'Not much really just life stuff' you spoke smiling up to the white haired man 'Didn't seem like it wasn't not much' Sanemi muttered looking directly at Kanroji while he said that 'Well I should probably get out now I was going to go out and collect some flowers in the forest!' you talked happily 'I can come with you!' Sanemi rushed looking up at you as you stood wrapping a towel around your body and grabbing your yukata.
'I'll be fine! The place I'm talking about is still in the Wisteria forest so no demons can get me! Plus I'll be home before sundown!' You exclaimed walking out of the hot to get changed. You grabbed a basket and some scissors to snip the flowers from the stem instead of just breaking them, walking through the wisteria forest was always relaxing in your opinion, you would hear the birds chirping and would sometimes see a deer if you were lucky enough, you sat down and began to pick some flowers for some teas or for decoration until you heard someone cough very heavily, looking up you saw a man bent over a cart on a road, quickly walking over to the man you offered him your water container you brought in case you got thirsty 'Are you ok?' You asked the man 'Yes I'm alright I've just got a bad cough is all' he said 'Let me help you!' You yelled not waiting for an answer as you gripped the carts handle 'Are you sure I don't live that far from here' the man protested worried 'I'm sure lead the way!' You declared and began to follow the man to his home, hopefully this won't take too long and you can get home before any demons show up.
Part Three
The three of you had gotten into a routine, you would wake up first to make breakfast for the three of you then you would take care of your plants in your greenhouse then you would spend time with the Hashira whether it be you playing some instruments or playing a board game, reading together, giving them a message or just spending time together in general.

You turned your body to face Kanroji and cupped her face 'I don't think it's unbelievable, many people hurt others whether they want to or not, whether they are beautiful ugly kind or mean they'll all get hurt someway or another, you just have to figure out if they meant it or not and decide if you forgive them. I haven't talk with any of my family members since I came to Japan and what they did to me I can never forget and I'm not sure if I'm ready to forgive.... but I'd be willing to try' you stated smiling warmly at Kanroji. Then the front door to the Hot Springs was slammed open and you and Kanroji looked to see Sanemi with a towel wrapped around his waist as he stared at you two 'Ah! Sanemi! Sorry did you want to use the spring?' You asked not noticing Sanemi's face become covered in a blush as he threw a towel at your face 'Cover yourself or stay in the spring!' he yelled and you smiled walking back to the hot springs submerging your body again as Kanroji joined you sitting close but far enough to give you space.
Soon Sanemi joined you two staying close while occasionally glaring at Kanroji 'So what were you two talking about?' Sanemi asked 'Not much really just life stuff' you spoke smiling up to the white haired man 'Didn't seem like it wasn't not much' Sanemi muttered looking directly at Kanroji while he said that 'Well I should probably get out now I was going to go out and collect some flowers in the forest!' you talked happily 'I can come with you!' Sanemi rushed looking up at you as you stood wrapping a towel around your body and grabbing your yukata.
'I'll be fine! The place I'm talking about is still in the Wisteria forest so no demons can get me! Plus I'll be home before sundown!' You exclaimed walking out of the hot to get changed. You grabbed a basket and some scissors to snip the flowers from the stem instead of just breaking them, walking through the wisteria forest was always relaxing in your opinion, you would hear the birds chirping and would sometimes see a deer if you were lucky enough, you sat down and began to pick some flowers for some teas or for decoration until you heard someone cough very heavily, looking up you saw a man bent over a cart on a road, quickly walking over to the man you offered him your water container you brought in case you got thirsty 'Are you ok?' You asked the man 'Yes I'm alright I've just got a bad cough is all' he said 'Let me help you!' You yelled not waiting for an answer as you gripped the carts handle 'Are you sure I don't live that far from here' the man protested worried 'I'm sure lead the way!' You declared and began to follow the man to his home, hopefully this won't take too long and you can get home before any demons show up.
Part Two,
Your job in the Demon Slayer Corps was a necessary one but not that known about, your job was to give Demon Slayers and sometimes Kakushi a place to wind down and relax, you were good friends with Ubuyashiki Kagaya and would often visit him and when he told you of how sometimes his children are stressed a lot you offered to help out, and now you have a cottage that you modified to have an extremely relaxing atmosphere surrounded by wisteria trees. You heard the caws of your Kasugai crow named Cherry since that was her favorite treat her feathers were a Quinacridone Magenta color, you patted her head and gave her a cherry and she cawed happily eating the treat as you took the note that was strapped to her leg to read it.
Dear (L/N) (Y/N)
I hope you are doing well and taking care of yourself. I wish to inform you that my Hashira will be visiting you as I’ve noticed that the nine of them deserve a break I can only send two of them for now but when the two have finished I will send two to replace them.
“The Hashira huh? I haven’t met them before, some Demon Slayers and Kakushi mentioned them giving them a hard time…. But from what I’ve heard from Kagaya they’re very kind” I thought cleaning around my cottage and making sure everything is ready, then I went outside and began my walk to greet the Hashira that will be staying with you. You see your house was built right next to a waterfall so you could have hot springs for your guest so there was a specific way to get to your place, any other way and you’d be lost in the dense forest of wisteria.
You found yourself in a clearing with a female and male in front of you, you assumed the two were the Hashira but they were quite short but still taller than you ‘Hello! Are you two Hashira by chance?’ You asked grabbing both their attention as they immediately reached for their katana getting in a fighting stance ‘My Kagaya was right you two seem very stressed!’ You gasped shocked and the girl slowly lets go of her weapons handle ‘Are you the one who will be caring for us?’ She asked still on guard ‘Yes I am! I’ll be taking care of you two for a few days, so please follow me!’ You happily spoke and the three of you began to walk back to your cottage with the male still being on guard ‘Oh! I almost forgot! My name is (L/N) (Y/N) what are your names?’ You asked looking at the two ‘I’m Kocho Shinobu and this is Iguro Obanai’ Kocho introduced.
After a few minutes, the three of you arrived at your house and the two Hashira stared the atmosphere was so warm and calming, you were about to enter your house until you noticed the two Demon Slayers weren’t behind you ‘Would you two like to come inside!’ You called out to them and the both of them froze up, the way the wind was moving through your hair with a few wisteria petals blowing around you, and to add to it your smile reminded the two of the shining sun.
‘Are you two ok? Both of your faces are very red!’ You worriedly spoke running up to the two ‘Do you two need some water or I can set out a futon for you?’ You reached out your hands and placed them on the forehead of the two to check their temperature after a few seconds the both of them reacted with Iguro turning his head away while muttering under his breath and Kocho grabbed your hand with a smile ‘We’re fine (L/N) just taking in the place’ she spoke and the three of you went inside your home, it was big enough to house three people so you three should be comfortable ‘Let me show you two to your rooms’ you said walking down the hall
‘Here are the rooms, mine is at the end of the hall if you need anything you spoke pointing at your room ‘There are also a pair of yukata in the rooms if you’d like to change. Oh before I forget Iguro would you follow me please’ you spoke and he grumbled but still followed you. Going to your room you opened a shelf and began to look through some draws ‘I noticed that you wear bandages covering your mouth, and that can be uncomfortable which is not what we need so you should wear this instead’ you explained bringing out a white mask you brought out a matching pastel (F/C) mask and put it on ‘You put it on like this and if you want to keep it on without taking it off you can do this’ you said pulling it under your chin smiling at him ‘You don’t have to wear it I just thought it would be more comfortable’ you spoke offering it to him and he hesitantly took it ‘You can put it on now if you want!’ You exclaimed closing your eyes and covering them with your hands.
Obanai didn’t know what to think, at first he thought this whole relax for a week was a waste of time when he could be slaying demons instead when he saw you he couldn’t deny that you were very cute but he was only into Kanroji no one else…. But this gift is something else. Smiling Iguro took off his bandages and put on the mask you had given him then he cleared his throat ‘I’m done’ he said you removed your hands from your face and opened your eyes ‘Wow…. The mask looks good on you’ a small blush was on your face ‘It makes you even more handsome!’ You gushed smiling making Iguro become a flustered mess, looking closer at Iguro’s neck you noticed his scarf wasn’t a scarf but a snake! ‘Oh my! Is that a snake! What’s their name?’ You excitedly asked looking up at Iguro ‘H-His name is Kaburamaru’ Iguro stuttered trying to calm down, then the albino snake moved from Iguro’s neck to yours wrapping around your neck comfortably ‘His very cute’ you spoke petting his head
‘Ara~Ara~ (L/N), Iguro have you forgotten that I’m here too~’ Kocho spoke up surprising you too. ‘Ah! Kocho I didn’t mean to neglect you, you are also a guest do you need something?’ You fretted over the girl not realizing she was just teasing ‘I was just teasing (L/N)’ she explained ‘No I was being a bad host Iguro if you want you can go change as well’ you said smiling up at him and he quickly left to not further embarrass himself ‘So is there anything you want or need Kocho?’ You asked attention to her ‘Well I am a bit hungry and I’m sure Iguro is as well’ Shinobu spoke and you nodded ‘Why don’t you explore around you might find something you like’ you spoke then rushed back to your room looking through letters you exchanged with Kagaya ‘Ah! Here it is!’ You yelled looking at the letter Kagaya had sent you a letter of all the things he knew the Hashira liked and you found the one with food ‘So Kocho likes Ginger Tsukudani and Iguro likes Tororo-Konbu, ok I think I have all the ingredients’ You spoke then went to the kitchen to start cooking
You felt Kaburamaru wiggle around ‘Is something the matter Kaburamaru?’ You asked looking at the snake as he slithered down your arm ‘He might be cold’ you heard Iguro say behind you so you turned to face him ‘Really? I guess I should bring him outside’ You said looking up at Iguro ‘I was just going to start making some lunch Kocho is off exploring but feel free to do whatever you want’ You said moving your arm to Iguro’s neck so Kaburamaru can wrap around him as you continued to prepare lunch as you heard Iguro walk off. The food was done so you lifted the plates and went to look for the two Hashira and you found them in the room all the Demon Slayer and Kakushi like, the room had beanbags around the room and many pillows, as well as a bookshelf filled with books and games you would play with guest as well as a few instruments you would also play for any guest, currently Kocho, was looking at your books and Iguro was staring intensely at your instruments ‘Hello I’ve got lunch here!’ You spoke placing the food on a table ‘Iguro if you want you don’t have to eat in here’ you commented looking at the man and he thanked you before taking his food and leaving ‘What about you (L/N) aren’t you going to eat anything?’ Kocho asked looking at you ‘I’m fine I ate before you two showed up’ you said sitting across from Kocho.
‘(L/N) I wanted to ask you are a foreigner right?’ Kocho asked ‘Yes I’m from Colombia’ you said happily ‘Why do you ask?’ You questioned ‘Just curious. What’s Colombia like?’ Kocho asked 'It's amazing everyone in my hometown is so nice and friendly! And nature looks so colorful and bright! But the music and dancing is my favorite!' You spoke animatedly while Shinobu smiled watching you talk so excitedly about your home, you just hoped that she would buy most of it. The truth is you came from a very toxic family they were all abusive in there own ways and with battles happening near were you lived you had to escape but at least you found Kagaya who helped you so much that you would do about anything to repay the kind man, you waited till Kocho finished her food and it was almost evening 'Kocho if you want I can give you a message before you go in' you offered before you two approached the hot springs 'If you don't mind' Kocho said and she followed you to a room and asked her to undress and lay on the message table as you turned to give her some privacy, you lit a scented candle and poured some essential oils on your hand before starting the message 'You have lovely skin Kocho' you absentmindedly spoke as you worked getting some appreciative groans from the girl 'Is that so?' She asked 'Yes it's very beautiful, are you married?' You asked not once stopping and you felt Kocho tense 'I'm sorry if that is a sensitive topic' you soothingly spoke rubbing her shoulders.
'It's fine you just startled me. No I am not married, why do you ask~?' Kocho questioned in a teasing tone 'I'm sure whoever wins your heart you will make that person very happy' you said smiling and Shinobu felt warm your words sounded so sincere and comforting that she couldn't help but blush, ever since she's gotten here and met you her heart has been all astir and she can't help but just look at you 'Kocho would you like a scalp message?' You asked and with a quick 'Yes' Shinobu was sat up with a yakuta on and her butterfly hairpin placed gently on the table, and with clean hands you gently began to thread your fingers through her hair and Shinobu felt tears well up in her eyes, this all felt so domestic like demons didn't exist this was all just too much, soon enough Kocho was full on sobbing and you held her in a gentle but firm hug and she clung to you afraid she could lose this feeling 'It's ok you can let it all out' you whispered gently to her rubbing her back soothingly, after what felt like hours to Shinobu she was only sniffling when you handed her some water 'Do you want me to continue?' You asked standing near Shinobu in case she needed something 'I think I'll go to bed know' she said and you nodded picking up her butterfly hairpin offering it to her 'My room is always open if you ever need something remember that ok' you said reaching up to gently hold her cheek then gave her the warmest smile you could muster then began to clean up and Shinobu left to her room, she could still feel your gentle hands over her body, you hand been so soft and gentle and even though she was suppose to be relaxing her heart couldn't stop hammering in her chest.
You had just finished your cleaning when you saw Iguro walking out of the hot springs talking to Kaburamaru 'Iguro did you enjoy yourself?' You asked walking up to him, he nodded at you closing his eyes in a way that made you think he was smiling 'I did it was very nice!' He exclaimed making you smile as well 'That's good to hear, did you enjoy your food from earlier?' You asked and was met with the same answer 'I imagine your heading to bed' you said looking up at him 'I am I hope you rest well' he said shocking you a bit, usually the Demon Slayers or Kakushi would just thank you and that was it, but with Kocho asking about yourself and Iguro hoping you have a good sleep felt new but warm as well 'I hope you and Kaburamaru have a good sleep as well' you smiled and Iguro caught the gratefulness in your eyes and with the way you looked so innocent to him, made him feel the need to protect you from this dangerous world as he felt his heart quicken up 'W-Well I'll be off now' Iguro stuttered out walking to his room rather quickly before you could respond, shrugging his behavior off you also went to your room writing in a journal about the day and experiences you had and about Kocho and Iguro, you just hoped when you meet the other Hashira that they will be just as kind as those two. You smiled putting the book away then setting out your futon and laying inside it getting comfortable, you just wish that tomorrow will be just as pleasant as today.
It was dawn as Tanjiro was in the room you were sleeping in, he was writing in his journal, finishing he blew the light out and walked out the room, he looked at your sleeping form ‘Let’s go’ Urokodaki spoke looking at Tanjiro Nezuko stood up just finished putting her shoes on, Tanjiro closed the door to the room.
‘The Demon Slayer Core we number in the hundreds. An organization completely unrecognized by the government, since ancient times we have existed to hunt down demons. However, the identity of the Demon Slayer Cores leader has always remained a mystery. Demons their staple food humans, they hunt and kill them, it is unclear when or where they first appeared. Incredibly physical prowess their wounds heal almost instantly flesh completely restores itself severed limbs regenerated. Some can shape shift, some have other powers, they can only be killed by sunlight or by decapitation with a special sword. The demon slayers fight them with mere mortal bodies, as humans' wounds are slow to heal and their lost limbs are unable to grow back, nevertheless they fight to protect and defend humanity’
‘I am a trainer, my job is to teach new swordsman there are many other trainers, each one is different they all educate their students using their own methods. To complete your training and join the demon Slayer corps, you will have to survive the final selection process on Mount Fujikasane, and I decided whether you take that challenge or not’ Urokodaki had explained all of this on the first day their training would begin.
Starting today, I have decided to write this journal for (Y/N). Again, today I descended the mountain with Nezuko. We both train as hard as we can so we won’t die during final selection. We go down the mountain day after day. We both have become quite good at avoiding the traps. Nezuko and I have become stronger and my nose is even sharper at picking up scents. But the traps are getting much deadlier. It’s like he wants to kill us. Today we went down the mountain with a katana. It really gets in the way, so me and Nezuko got caught in a lot more traps.
Today we both started swinging the katana I say “today” but lately we do this every day. After descending the mountain, we swing our Katina's so much we feel like our arms will fall off.
The first thing he taught us was the katana breaks easily. It’s strong against force lengthwise. But weak against force from the side. With a katana you must attack straight ahead. When you swing a katana the direction of the blade and the direction of the force you apply must be the exact same. Furthermore, Urokodaki said. If you break your sword, I’ll break every bone in your body, he’s threats are very cold like the mountain.
Today we fell down a lot we were training to do it as softly as possible so we can get up quickly from any position. I raise my katana and charge Urokodaki trying to kill him, meanwhile his unarmed barehanded, he’s ridiculous strong he throws me over his shoulder every time I roll to the ground.
It was nighttime as Tanjiro and Nezuko entered your room you were still sound asleep ‘Hello (Y/N)’ they both greeted as Tanjiro went to write in his journal while Nezuko grabbed a brush and sat behind you, sitting you up as well as she began to brush your hair. Nezuko had cut her own hair, it ended at her chest since her long hair would get in the way of training ‘Hey Tanjiro, how long do you think (Y/N) will be asleep for?’ She asked looking down at you worried you had been asleep for three weeks now ‘I’m not sure but we have to stay strong for (Y/N)!’ Tanjiro exclaimed smiling at Nezuko she smiled back ‘Right!’ She responded putting you back in your futon, then she gave you a goodnight kiss ‘Good night (Y/N)’ she said then exited the room going to the one she shared with Tanjiro.
Today’s lesson was about breathing techniques and fighting forms. ‘Total concentration breathing?’ Tanjiro asked ‘That's right. Also, I’m going to be teaching you all ten water breathing forms. Start by taking a long deep breath so the oxygen flows through every cell in your body, this will enhance your healing ability and stabilize as well as energies your spirit. Now relax your arms and shoulders but keep your lower body braced’ both siblings did what Urokodaki said ‘Good, now breath’ the both of them took in a long breath but chocked when Urokodaki put pressure on their stomach.
‘Wrong! Next the forms’ Urokodaki spoke Tanjiro got into different poses ‘Right! How am I doing!’ ‘All wrong!’ ‘How about now?!’ ‘Still wrong!’ ‘Now?!’ ‘Again!’ ‘Now?!’ ‘Terrible!’ Urokodaki then continuously slapped Tanjiro’s stomach while Nezuko looked at the two with a blank face.
I get yelled at for not bracing my stomach and get clobbered to a pulp. The next lesson we had to become one with the water. Both Nezuko and Tanjiro looked over a very high cliff ‘Urokodaki are you sure this is safe?’ Nezuko asked ‘What are you waiting for get in already’ Urokodaki spoke then pushed Tanjiro with his foot making him fall of the edge ‘Aah! Tanjiro!’ Nezuko yelled as Tanjiro fell down ‘I’m doing this for (Y/N)!’ Tanjiro yelled as he fell ‘Now your turn’ Urokodaki said also kicking Nezuko over the cliff ‘wwwwhhhhyyyyyyy!’ Nezuko yelled as Urokodaki looked at their bodies floating down stream
As of now (Y/N) has been asleep for six months. Urokodaki called a doctor to look at you but he found nothing wrong. Yet it’s strange you keep sleeping like this. Nezuko and I are really scared I thought I’d wake up in the morning and you’d be dead. And that’s still how I feel every night. Nezuko hasn’t been doing too good either. She doesn’t take that many breaks and she’s constantly training I’m really worried about her-
Tanjiro looked over to you but you were gone ‘huh…. (Y/N)! Where are you!’ Tanjiro yelled immediately running out of the room he could faintly smell you and followed your scent until he found you standing in front of Nezuko she was crying at the sight of you, she ran up to you for a hug but instead of returning it you punched her! (Texas Smash!) ‘Nezuko what do you think you're doing! You're scaring me and Tanjiro! You should be taking care of yourself……I told you to be strong not reckless, you won’t be able to protect me or Tanjiro if you can’t protect yourself’ you were lecturing her sternly but you then returned to a calm voice of an older sibling.
You sat in front of her and hugged her ‘Please don’t hurt yourself like this’ you finished as Nezuko began sobbing. You looked up at Tanjiro who was shocked with tears of his own, you gave him your sweet smile and lifted an arm to invite him to join the hug. He sprinted and jumped at you two making you fall down, you gave a big laugh and hugged the two even tighter, they began to laugh as well they were so happy you were awake. Urokodaki had given the two the day off so you could catch up with the two.
When you were reading over Tanjiro’s journey you immediately got interested in total concentration breathing, you asked Urokodaki if he could teach it to you, and he was extremely surprised when you picked it up very quickly, you began to do the breathing constantly! ‘Urokodaki - Sama do you teach Tanjiro and Nezuko hand to hand combat?’ You asked the next day as said man was making dinner ‘No I do not, why do you ask?’ He questioned facing you ‘Well what if their katana breaks, or if it’s out of reach?’ You asked bringing up a good point ‘Well I don’t know much in hand-to-hand combat’ he said giving you a bowl of the soup he was making.
You didn’t go back to sleep after that it seems you got energy from eating instead of sleeping so you constantly had food on you ‘Hey! I can teach them! Please let me!’ You we’re excitedly looking at the man like a child, he let out a soft chuckle and ruffled your hair ‘Of course you can teach them’ he said ‘Teach who what?’ You looked at the door to see Nezuko and Tanjiro coming in after training each getting their own bowl and began eating ‘Starting tomorrow I’m going to teach you two hand to hand combat!’ You yelled as the siblings spit out the soup in shock and looked at you then Urokodaki.
They immediate moved behind the man as they stared at you in horror ‘Please Urokodaki don’t let (Y/N) do this!’ The two yelled ‘And since you two have become stronger I’m going to make the training harder than ever!’ You exclaimed finishing the soup while getting seconds. The two looked at each other in horror the last time you had taught them it was hell, even worse with the training they were currently doing ‘Now (Y/N), I think it’s best if Tanjiro and Nezuko stick to the training they're already doing’ Urokodaki said which made the siblings let out a sigh of relief.
You began wolfing down the soup then stopped to stare at the man ‘Fine if you say so’ you whined continuing to eat as Tanjiro and Nezuko fixed up the soup they spilled and began to eat.
Coming down the mountains even tougher now, we start up higher so the airs even thinner. It’s also really annoying when (Y/N) decided to also do training and they excelled at everything they even start at the top of the mountain. (Y/N) made it seem like it was effortless but I couldn’t really stay mad since (Y/N) is awake and even cheers me and Nezuko on. More than a few times I thought I was going to die.
‘That’s it I’ve taught you all I can. The rest is all up to you, you have to prove your capable of advancing to the next level. Come with me!’ Urokodaki said as Tanjiro and Nezuko followed him, it was starting to snow. Urokodaki stopped and the siblings stared at two huge boulders ’If you can cut this boulder in two. I will allow you to enter the final selection’ Urokodaki said and then walked away ignoring the two calling out to him.
“Is this really……. even possible can a katana even cut through that?” The two thought staring at the boulders with doubt. Tanjiro brought his katana out and swung down, the vibration from the impact on the rock shook all over Tanjiro. He looked at his katana relived ‘It didn’t brake’ Nezuko said also bringing out her katana and trying what Tanjiro did with the same outcome.
From then on, I spent every day practicing what I learnt from Urokodaki. All the basics like holding my breath and staying flexible, it’s a good thing I wrote it down in this journal. Nezuko had asked (Y/N) to help get her body stronger, (Y/N) training methods were odd they asked Nezuko to punch a tree until her knuckles bled, and also kick a tree till she felt her legs break. (Y/N) did some teachings like Urokodaki like with the breathing techniques they also made Nezuko do painful stretches making her more flexible. I joined in as well and I could feel myself becoming stronger. But even after six more months I can’t cut through the boulder. It’s frustrating enough, I’m not training hard enough. I got to do more.
It was almost sundown and Tanjiro was still at it with the boulder. He suddenly banged his head on the rock ‘Come on Tanjiro you can do this!’ He yelled to himself banging his head on the rock again ‘Silence’ a voice said making Tanjiro gasp. Looking up he saw a boy around his age with a fox mask and peach like hair, he had a wooden sword ‘It’s unseemly to whine so knock it off’ he spoke his voice calm “Who's this guy?” Tanjiro thought looking up at him “He has no scent and what’s with the mask?” Tanjiro continued to question him.
‘A demon slayer bares his suffering in silence, isn’t that what you want to be?’ The boy asked standing up ‘Then start acting like it’ he said then jumped off the rock and swung at Tanjiro who blocked him, the boy brought his leg up and kicked Tanjiro sending him away ‘Your slow, weak and immature that’s not what I’d call a demon slayer’ the boy said as Tanjiro stared at him.
Alright I’m gonna leave it there or else this will be way too long.
Taisho Era Secret
(Y/N) likes to sing Russian songs when bored and sings lullabies to Tanjiro and Nezuko to put them to sleep.
'Excuse me, but could I take that basket and a little straw and bamboo?' Tanjiro had asked a man. It was day time and since you couldn't be in the sun Tanjiro went to get a basket 'We don't mind. But the basket has a hole in it' the man said looking at the boy 'That's alright can I pay you?' Tanjiro asked always so thoughtful and caring 'No need. It's a broken basket' the man said 'Please let me pay' Tanjiro said as nice as he was he was equally stubborn 'No thank you. You can have the other stuff too' the man spoke shaking his head 'But I WANT to pay!' Tanjiro yelled 'WE DON'T WANT IT! What a stubborn kid!' The man yelled 'Just take it! It's only a few coins anyway!' Tanjiro yelled slamming some coins in the mans hand, then he walked towards the needed items 'Thank you very much!' Tanjiro got the items and walked back to were his siblings were.
He arrived at a small cave, looking inside he thought he would see you but you were gone 'Hey, Nezuko were did (Y/N) go?' He asked looking at his sister worried 'Hmm? What do you mean, they should be there?' Nezuko asked kneeling next to her brother and looked inside 'HUH?! Were did they go?!' Nezuko yelled in shock when suddenly your head popped out of a hole they didn't see 'I'm right here' you spoke with an irritated face not entirely because of your siblings, but because of the sun, you used to love the warm rays of the sun, but now you looked at the day as something that can kill you.
After a few minutes Tanjiro had made the basket more durable with no holes, crawling into the cave Nezuko and Tanjiro looked at you '(Y/N), will you fit in here? I want us to travel during the day. I'll carry you' Tanjiro explained showing you the basket. Getting out of your Mole Hole you stepped inside the basket and sat down, but you were definitely too big 'Hmm.....(Y/N) you're as big as an adult can you reverse that, and get smaller?' Tanjiro asked after a few seconds your body began to shrink until you were the size of a child. Both younger siblings were shocked that actually worked 'That's perfect! Good job' Nezuko praised as you gave her and Tanjiro head pats.
Wrapping a cloth around the basket the two humans and demon were on their way again 'To get to Mount Sagiri, you first have to cross that mountain. The sun will set soon. And you're going to carry that huge load? And the both of you look so young it's dangerous' A lady spoke as her child clutched onto her side, both the siblings bowed thankful for her help and concern 'We'll be plenty careful. Thank you very much' the siblings said than began on their way 'People really do disappear up there. So don't get lost!' The woman yelled after the siblings, as they waved goodbye.
The siblings have been walking for a while, earlier on the sun set so you were let out, you held both Tanjiro and Nezuko's hands, until you felt something dangerous nearby. Immediately you stopped confusing the pair '(Y/N), what's wrong?' the both of them asked stopping their movement as well facing you, suddenly Tanjiro knew why you stopped 'T-that's the sent of blood!' Tanjiro yelled running forward pulling you and Nezuko along with him 'Brother calm down!' Nezuko yelled trying to keep up with the pace 'These mountain paths are dangerous. Someone may be injured!' Tanjiro yelled as you three reached the temple.
Tanjiro flung the damaged door open 'Is everyone alright!' Tanjiro yelled in worry but he fell quite with the scene in front of him, while Nezuko let out a gasp. It was a demon feasting on dead humans, at the sight you felt yourself begining to drool 'What?! Hey! This is MY territory! Get away from my feeding ground!' the demon spoke but you didn't care, you only stared at the bodies in hunger which made you DISGUSTED in yourself 'Hmm...? Something's wrong here. Are you three HUMAN?' The demon asked then he suddenly lounged at Tanjiro and punched Nezuko sending her back, quickly thinking Tanjiro grabbed his hatchet and swung at the demons neck 'A hatchet?! HA! HA! HA! Not bad! But a wound like this.....Will heal in no time! See the bleeding already stopped!' The demon spoke as his wound did in fact heal.
The demon lunged at the boy again making sure his hatchet was kicked away 'You'll never do that again! I'm gonna snap your neck' the demon said not noticing a figure run up to him 'Leave my brother alone!' Nezuko yelled picking up the hatchet and jamming it into the demons head 'Ugh! You bitch!' the demon yelled in pain then suddenly brought his hand up, wrapping it around Nezuko's neck and slammed her down on the floor, making the two scream in pain as the demon began to choke them. Hearing the two cry in pain you came to your senses, and ran at the demon and kicked his head off making a dent in a tree from the impact.
Both siblings looked at you shocked trying to catch their breaths '(Y-(Y/N)!' they yelled not noticing the headless body move to attack them, you brought you leg up and kicked it away putting a dent in another tree "I can't believe it! It just moved with it's head ripped off!" Tanjiro and Nezuko thought looking at the body horrified 'Why YOUU! I knew it one of you is a demon! Something didn't seem right! What are a demon and two humans doing together?!' the demon yelled as the body ran at the three you stood in front and connect your hands with the body in a wrestle position 'STOP!' the siblings yelled Tanjiro brought up his hatchet for another attack when he saw something coming at him from the corner of his eyes.
Swinging it to the side the demons head bit on the metal blade and arms appeared were his ears are, grabbing into Tanjiro's shoulders ‘Get off of me!’ Tanjiro yelled then head butted the demon hard making, Tanjiro kept on attacking the threw his hatchet trapping the demon to a tree ‘Nezuko! (Y/n)!’ Tanjiro yelled looking for the two, he saw the two of you, you were in front of Nezuko as she was dangerously close to a cliff while you were trying to keep the demons body away from Nezuko.
The demon kicked you to the side and lunged for Nezuko ‘Knock it off!’ Tanjiro ran at the demon and tackled him sending him over the cliff, Nezuko reached for Tanjiro catching him while also falling over the cliff, running you grabbed Nezuko’s hand before the two could fall to their deaths. Slowly you managed to pull the two to safety, giving them both a hug ‘Be careful’ you spoke calmly and sternly. You three walked back to the demon head Tanjiro brought out a knife staring at the unconscious demon head.
He began te hyperventilate when a hand was placed on his shoulder, Nezuko and Tanjiro looked at the man shocked ‘You can’t kill it with that’ he spoke he had a tengu mask on. The three of you looked at him shocked, you didn’t hear his footsteps ‘H-how can we kill it?’ Nezuko asked ‘Don’t trust what others say. Can’t you two think for yourself?’ The man asked the two looked at each other “If stabbing it won’t work. We’ll have to crush the head” the siblings thought each getting a medium sized rock.
The man looked at the two “These kids won’t do. Their kindness prevents them from making decisive action. When facing a demon. They reek of sympathy and consideration. They even feel sympathy for a demon. Giyuu these two are useless. The demon on the other hand. I can smell extreme power from them they want to help the two but they know they have to do this themselves. If they weren’t turned into a demon they would be a wonderful demon slayer” the man thought of this all looking between the three
You wanted to intervene and do this difficult task for your younger siblings, but you knew you couldn’t always protect them, they both had to get stronger. Looking to your left you noticed the sun coming up you grabbed the basket and cloth, going to the corner were the dead humans were you got smaller sitting in the basket wrapping the cloth over your head. The man had followed you and picked up the bodies to burry them.
Both Nezuko and Tanjiro looked at the now awake demon, they thought about how they should kill it, but didn’t with sympathy and softness still held them back, they felt the warmth of the sun and saw the demons head burn up and turn to ash ‘(Y/N)! Where are you?!’ The both yelled panicked for you, running to the temple they saw you covered and let a sigh of relief out. The two noticed the missing bodies and looked around the building.
They saw the man praying for the deceased ‘Um….excuse me’ Tanjiro said hesitantly as he and Nezuko walked up to the man ‘I am Urokodaki Sakonji. You two must be the ones Giyuu told me about’ Urokodaki introduced himself ‘y….yes I’m Kamado Tanjiro, and this is my little sister Nezuko. The demon is our older sibling (L/N) (Y/N)’ Tanjiro introduced you all ‘Tell me what will you two do when your sibling eats someone?’ He asked with a serious voice they both stared at him, until they both were slapped by the man ‘You think too slow!’ He chided them ‘You two struggle over the simplest decisions. You could never finish off a demon before the morning. Why couldn’t you answer the question immediately? You two are too soft! When your sibling eats someone, there are two things you have to do….first kill your sibling then slit your stomach and die! That is what it means to travel with your sibling who has become a demon! But it is your sacred duty to ensure that never happens. Your sibling must never take the life of an innocent person! Do you understand what I am saying!’ Urokodaki explained ‘Yes!’ Both siblings yelled agreeing to take on this burden.
‘Very well….I will test you both to see if you have what it takes to be a demon slayer. Carry your sibling and follow me’ he told them. Walking back to the temple they saw you sleeping Tanjiro carried the basket while Nezuko wrapped the cloth around the basket securely, and they where off. There was a huge gap between Urokodaki and the Kamado’s “He’s fast! How old is this guy?! And he’s feet don’t make any sound! (Y/N) this will be a rough ride but hang in there. But when suffering is all you’ve ever known’ Tanjiro thought of a memory he had.
You were stitching your kimono it had a tear in it, the fifth one this month ‘(Y/N) are you mending your kimono again? You should buy a new one’ Tanjiro spoke concerned but you just looked up at him with a smile ‘It’s fine Tanjiro I like this kimono! So instead I use the saved up money to buy you and everyone else plenty to eat!’ You spoke sweetly before continuing.
Nezuko also thought of a memory you and her were in a neighbouring town when a guy was making Nezuko uncomfortable so you punched the guy in the face hard and his friends beat you up then left ‘(Y/N)! You shouldn’t have done that!’ Nezuko was very shocked kneeling down next to you, you sat up and she saw your beautiful face was swollen with a bruise ‘I’m fine are you ok?’ You asked with a smile even though it hurt ‘You shouldn’t do that I was fine’ Nezuko felt tears going down her face and you brought her into a hug ‘Of course I had to do that. Your my little sister I’ll always protect you’ you then stood up wobbling a bit then brought Nezuko up ‘Now come on I saw a kimono that you will look beautiful in’ you smiled walking up to the store buying the said kimono, and Nezuko never wore a different kimono after that.
“We will make you human again! And I’ll buy you a new kimono!” Tanjiro thought “(Y/N) even though your the oldest! I’ll get stronger and protect you too!” Nezuko thought as the two continued to run. The both of the Kamado’s were panting hard kneeling on the floor trying to catch their breath ‘S…..so…..di did we…..pass the test?’ Tanjiro asked between breaths. Urokodaki slide the door open and took off the scarf around his head ‘The test is just beginning you two will climb the mountain. Leave your sibling inside and follow me’ he said the two looked at him shocked.
They put you inside the small house laying you down on a futon ‘I promise while you two are away I’ll protect your sibling’ Urokodaki said as the two thanked him. They then began the walk up the mountain it was nighttime already and there was heavy fog on the mountain “I’m already tired. My legs are getting weak….and I feel dizzy. The air is more shallow then the one at home” the both of them thought as they followed Urokodaki, he stopped then turned to the two ‘Now you must descend down the mountain by yourself, get to my house before sunrise and you pass’ Urokodaki said then disappeared.
‘That’s the test?’ Nezuko asked confused ‘oh, I get it he thinks we’ll get lost because of the fog. We just have to get back before sunrise. It should be easy with my sharp nose’ Tanjiro explained then started running down with Nezuko following. Tanjiro almost tripped over a rope but caught himself, he looked around then rocks were thrown at his face making blood come from his mouth ‘Tanjiro!’ Nezuko yelled concerned walking up to her brother, then he fell in a covered pit. He got out slamming his hand on another rope, he quickly stood up looking for the trap as a log hit him in the back, sending him to the floor.
Tanjiro stood up cursing in his head ‘Tanjiro calm down the air is thinner here, we need to get our breathing under control’ Nezuko said putting her hands on his shoulders and looking him in the eyes. Slowly he bagan to breath normally then nodded to his sister and they both continued down the mountain. They avoided some traps but still got hit by some. After some time it was almost sunrise and Urokodaki was getting a bit worried looking out the window.
The front door slide open and there was Tanjiro and Nezuko their clothes were messy with dirt all over them and they had a few cuts on them ‘w-we made it’ they both said falling to the floor from exhaustion ‘Tanjiro and Nezuko Kamado I accept you two as my students’ Urokodaki said making the siblings give him a weak smile.
Taisho Era Secret
(Y/N) had many men and women ask to marry them. But Tanjiro and Nezuko are very overprotective of who (Y/N) will be with. They want you to be happy.
Your name is (L/n) (Y/N), you are an only child but you were your parents pride and joy, ever since you were born it seemed you had an effect on people, everyone that was around you absolutely loved you, which is why your parents trained you in combat, you were an absolute beast. Many people gravitated towards you, but you considered the Kamado family as your own family, whenever you weren't training you were always with the Kamado's, recently your parents had died, so the Kamado's took you in. Nezuko had just been born and then Takeo, Hanako, Shigeru and Rokuta you had joined their family and they accepted you with open arms.
It was the afternoon and you were in the room you shared with Nezuko, you were practicing your Shamisen, for your thirteen birthday everyone saved up as much money as they could to buy you one, you became obsessed with the instrument ever since a street performer passed through your small village, they had even taught you the basics, since then you were hooked. Hearing the door open you looked up and saw Tanjiro, giving him a soft smile you stopped playing 'Are you heading into town?' you asked when you were learning Japanese it was a pain, you see you were a foreigner from Russia, your parents brought you to Japan when you were 10 a year older than Tanjiro 'Yes, I wanted to tell you before I left' Tanjiro answered 'Are you sure, it's already the afternoon and it's very snowy today' I said with clear worry in my voice 'I'll be fine. I promise, I want to make sre we have a big new year feast!' Tanjiro tried to reassure me with excitement for the New Year and then he left for town.
It was night when it happened you sat down saying a prayer with everyone before you all ate. The front door had slammed open and there saw blood everywhere Nezuko was still alive you could feel it, looking forward you saw a man reach his hand out for her, with new found strength you ran to the man and was able to punch him right in the face, making him fly back but he quickly caught himself. You stood in front of Nezuko in a protective manner, you had a large scratch across your torso but you still stood tall 'Get away from my sister!' you yelled furious at this man hurting your family 'You are quite strong you made me bleed from just a punch. You will be a powerful demon' the man said then suddenly he vanished, No Behind! You turned and tried to dodge but he grabbed your neck before you could do anything, and you felt immense pain then blacked out.
Nezuko had woken up and saw your body, she let out a scream and ran to your side, she let out a sigh of relief as you still had a pulse, she quickly picked you up and began to run down the hill, maybe if she hurried and got you to town you would survive. Not far from the two was Tanjiro who could smell the approaching blood, and also began to run and he quickened he's pace when he saw his sister carrying you while unconscious 'NEZUKO!! What happened?!' Tanjiro yelled getting her attention while she staggered, the pain of her own injuries were weighing her down. Tanjiro grabbed you from his sister and put you on his back, but he suddenly lost his footing in the snow, Nezuko seeing this reached for you and Tanjiro but because of her blood lost fell down the cliff with you two instead.
Tanjiro’s eyes were wide he looked to his side to see he’s sister unconscious from blood loss, looking around he spotted you, he saw the big a big amount on your body from a scratch that went from your right shoulder to your left hip, ‘(Y/n), are you alright? You shouldn’t be up! Let me… carry you into town!’ Tanjiro yelled desperately running up to you ‘(Y/N)!…’ you looked downmat him, you had slit eyes like a cat and you were growling, you lunged at Tanjiro, he brought out he’s hatchet in time as you bit on the wood “A demon this is what old man Saburo said, was (Y/N)… A man eating demon? No that was impossible (Y/N) has been human… since the day I met them. But this (Y/N)… smells of blood and death. But (Y/N) couldn’t have done all that. They don’t have any blood on their mouth or hands, and I can smell another sent” Tanjiro thought of this all as you suddenly grew into the size of an adult.
Tanjiro looked shocked as you grew in size and strength ‘(Y/N)… Hold on (Y/N)! Fight it fight for your life. I know your strong don’t turn into a demon! You can do it!’ Tanjiro yelled with tears streaming down his face ‘(Y/N)…’ Tanjiro stopped as he felt your tears land on his cheeks, he could smell sadness and guilt, you suddenly looked to the side to see a man with a sword. Tanjiro grabbed your neck and pushed you away from danger and his hair was cut off instead of your neck.
Making you two roll from the momentum, the attacker stood tall ‘Why did you protect them?’ He asked ‘S-sibling they are my older sibling!’ Tanjiro yelled you growled at the man trying to get out of Tanjiro’s hold ‘You call that thing your older sibling?’ The stranger asked while Tanjiro stayed silent he began to run at the two, so Tanjiro leaned down trying to protect you, but you were no longer under him.
Tanjiro looked up in horror to see you being held as you thrashed around trying to escape ‘Hey! Let (Y/N) go! Let my sibling go!’ The two boys stopped at the new voice ‘Nezuko!’ Tanjiro yelled worried for his sister ‘Don’t move, killing demons is my job, so I’m going to decapitate your older sibling’ the guy explained, you struggled more and he was taken aback by your strength as he put more pressure on he’s grip ‘Wait (Y/N) hasn’t killed anyone yet!’ ‘Yeah, plus their was a man at our house who attacked us and (Y/N) protected me!’ Both siblings yelled in your defense ‘Not (Y/N), I don’t know how this happened but it was definitely that man!’ Nezuko yelled standing next to her brother.
The man looked like a blank canvas ‘That's easy. Demon blood got inside your sibling so they turned into a demon. That is how man eating demon multiply’ He said it so simple ‘(Y/N) would never eat anyone!’ Both siblings yelled ‘A moment ago they almost ate you’ he spoke pointing his sword at Tanjiro ’No, I’m sure they now who we are!’ Tanjiro yelled ‘I won’t let them hurt anyone. We’ll find a way to cure them we’ll make them human again!’ Tanjiro yelled while Nezuko nodded in agreement ‘They won’t get better. A human who becomes a demon cannot go back’ he was still struggling to hold the demon.
How much blood did you get? ‘We’ll find a way! I swear! Please don’t kill them!’ Nezuko yelled in desperation ‘We’ll also find the man that killed our family we’ll do all that so’ Nezuko continued as the man brought his sword closer to your neck ‘STOP!!’ Tanjiro yelled cutting his sister off “We can’t lose (Y/N) too!” The siblings thought as they both bowed deeply ‘Please stop. Please don’t kill our older sibling! Please’ the both of them pleaded ‘Never leave yourself so DEFENSELESS in front of an enemy!’ The boy yelled clear hatred on his face.
Both siblings were shocked ‘Stop bowing so pitifully. If that worked, your family would still be alive! How can weaklings like you, who bows down when it’s time to fight! To kill or be killed… how can such a person….…cure their older sibling? Or even find their enemy! If you want something…..you must fight for it! The meek have no power and no options! The strong will crush them in every way! Demons might know how to cure your older sibling……but……No demon will respect your whining and begging! And for that matter I don’t respect you two either! That’s reality! Before…..why did you cover your sibling! Did you think that would protect them! Why didn’t you throw your hatchet? Why did you show me your back?! That’s how I was able to take them! I should have skewered you three!’ He yelled at the two and you wriggled around even more.
How could he say such harsh words to your little siblings, everything was quite except for your growing, he lifted his sword after a moment and struck it through your shoulder as you screamed in pain ‘No!!’ Both siblings went into action both of them threw a rock at the guy, who easily deflected them. Nezuko grabbed another rock and threw it aiming for his head but he moved to the side, she then brought her left leg up and aimed for the head. Just liked you showed her, but he blocked it then brought the end of his handle down making her unconscious.
Tanjiro ran for his hatchet and threw another rock with it also missing, he then ran forward screaming, once he got in striking distance, the guy also knocked him out like Nezuko. You stopped growling as you looked at Nezuko and Tanjiro, they are your little siblings, your only family, Protect Them, PROTECT THEM!
You felt his hold on you slip, so you took the opportunity and and got free, you kicked him far enough that he hit his back against a tree, quickly you ran to your siblings. PROTECT THEM, PROTECT THEM. You stopped right in front of them in a protective manner ‘L….leave….LEAVE MY FAMILY ALONE!’ You had shouted as the mans shocked face somehow became more surprised. Taking advantage you ran at him growling, you used your claws to scratch at him and you managed to injure him.
You were tired and hungry but you were going to win, you can’t let him hurt them. But you felt a hand to your left side of your neck and became unconscious. Kie, Takeo Hanako, Shigeru and Rokuta all sat around Tanjiro and Nezuko worried ‘I’m sorry to leave you behind, Tanjiro, Nezuko. Take care of (Y/N) for me, all right?’ Immediately Nezuko and Tanjiro woke up and clutched onto (Y/N) with tears ‘Your awake?’ The two looked up and saw the guy who had hurt you.
Nezuko brought your body towards her in a hug as Tanjiro stood in front of the two of you ‘Go see an old man named Urokodaki Sakonji who lives at the foot of Mount Sagiri. Tell him that Tomioka Giyu sent you. Your sibling should be fine because it's cloudy today……But don’t let them into direct sunlight’ after that he was gone.
Tanjiro had carried you up to the house since Nezuko was injured, once they arrived you had woken up and got off Tanjiro ‘(Y/N), are you ok?’ ‘Your not hurt are you?’ Both siblings asked you as you looked between the two, you brought your arms up and pulled the two towards you and gave them a hug.
They both wrapped their arms around you and began to cry, you held them tighter until they stopped sobbing slowly you pulled away and placed a hand on their cheeks ‘We need to be brave and strong, look out for each other, protect each other’ you told them and they nodded. After burying your family and praying, you went to your room and packed up your Shamisen and walked outside with it ‘Ah, (Y/N) your bringing your Shamisen?’ Nezuko asked as you nodded yes, you handed it to Tanjiro then you squatted in front of Nezuko. ‘Nezuko hop on your hurt’ you spoke as she hesitantly hopped on.
The both of them knew you were still their kind hearted older sibling, even if you were a demon now, you held Nezuko up by her thighs and she wrapped her arms around you neck, you and Tanjiro began walking ‘Hey, Tanjiro?’ You called to him as you three were far from home ‘Yes (Y/N)?’ He asked turning his attention to you ‘Were are we going?’ You asked as Nezuko was sound asleep 'Some place called Mount Sagiri, the guy before Tomioka Giyuu said to find a man who lived there named Urokodaki Sakonji' Tanjiro explained as you looked ahead of you, you only hoped that you three would be safe with this man.
