Rori's notes: bringing in the new year with a kyo short! happy*cough* belated *cough* new year! :)

you found yourself lying awake, the heat radiating off of the flame hashira's body keeping you warm.

while you found yourself unable to fall asleep, it wasn't necessarily bothersome as you got the opportunity to bask in kyojuro's beauty uninterrupted. you both lay on your shared bed, facing one another while his strong arm looped around your waist. he always made sure to secure you close to him, even whilst in dreamland.

a gentle smile fell on your lips, your heart fluttering as you scanned he features. you silently giggled as you noticed the subtle smile that remained on his face. a smile was always present on his face, no matter the time. wisps of his bright hair fell gingerly over his cheeks, some entangled with his eyelashes.

noticing this, you carefully reached up towards his face, subtly swiping the loose strands out of his face and over his shoulder. sensing the small movement, and unbeknownst to you, your lover began to wake. however he, being the ever so curious one, continued his sleeping facade to see what you were doing. a comforting warmth spread across his face as he felt you move his hair away and gingerly rest your palm against his cheek.

you swiped your thumb against his cheek before pressing a feather–like kiss on the tip of his nose, smiling gently as you whispered a quiet, "i love you."

much to your embarrassment, and shock, you felt his arm tighten around your waist before seeing bright eyes snap open, meeting your surprised ones. he reciprocated the kiss to your nose, tracing small patterns on the small of your back as he did so. with newfound excitement, he responded with a booming, "AND I LOVE YOU!"

feeling suddenly flustered, you shoved your face in his bare chest, mumble–shouting, "i didn't think you were awake!"

"HAHA," as kyojuro laughed, he rolled onto his back, keeping you close to lay on top of him. "but if i were to still be asleep, i would have missed your declaration of love! and i never tire of hearing it!"

opting to keep your face buried in your lover's chest, you mumbled a, "l-let's just...go back to sleep, kyo."

"ah i see," he says, smiling at his sudden realization. "you are flustered that i was awake to receive your affirmation! then i will give you some of my own!"

you shook your head with a laugh, "no, kyo, you really don't have—"

"I LOVE YOU!!"

"kyo, really it's not neces—"

"BUT I LOVE YOU! IT IS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY!!"

"OKAY! LET'S GO TO SLEEP NOW!"

"OKAY.....I LOVE YOU!!"

"I LOVE YOU TOO!!"

Hi anonnn! 👋🏾

Personally, I don't think Kyojuro would have any insecurities with his battle scars.

I feel like he would see his scars as a badge of honor. I think he would view his scars as a symbol, or constant reminder of all the people he's saved. I'm sure each one would have its own unique story and origin, and I don't see him being ashamed of any of it.

He can't save everyone, so I think the scars from battles that still resulted in casualties may be hard to look at. Even so, I don't think he'd see them as an insecurity, just a reason to train that much harder to ensure innocent lives come out alive.

"A Cup Full of Love"

Pairing(s): zenitsu agatsumu x reader

Synopsis: zenitsu asks for your hand in marriage everyday, which you always politely decline. imagine his surprise when you ask to marry him!

Genre: fluff, slight crack

Warning(s): n/a

Rori's Notes: IM SO SORRY FOR THE LONG WAIT ANON😭! thank you for the request! i actually really like writing for zenitsu, so i'm glad you sent it! and thank you love, college is going great! going into the spring semester of junior year, so it's flying bye lol! this one is kinda short, but i hope you enjoy! <3

once zenitsu is finally able to call you his, he's never letting you go!

he has been pining after you for a while. your gentle nature immediately pulled him towards you, and it didn't take long you both to become friends

you're not a slayer, but you are an extremely skilled healer and work alongside shinobu and aoi in the butterfly mansion. you were eager to learn the ways of medicine from the insect hashira, and she was just as eager to teach.

"oh my, you catch on quick! everyone is sure to make a speedy recovery with you around" shinobu praised you with a clap of her hands as she watched you make medicines, and you gave a small, yet proud, smile."th-thank you, lady shinobu!"

one day, the three butterfly triplets came running up to you in a panic. "y/n! y/n! y/n! come quickly!"

you stopped hanging the freshly washed blankets on the clothes and looked at the three girls, "girls, what's the matter?" you furrowed your eyebrows, looking at the three as they proceed to drag you off into the mansion. "the thunder boy, zenitsu, needs medical attention," one girl proclaims. "but no one can get him to take his medicine," calls another. "even aoi is struggling," shouted the third girl.

as the tugged you further down the hallway, you could hear a boy's screaming become louder. "DON'T MAKE ME TAKE THAT AWFUL MEDICINE!!! I HATE ITTTTT!!!" a lot of noise could be heard, and you heard aoi shout in return as zenitsu slapped the medicine out of her hand. "THE QUICKER YOU TAKE IT THE QUICKER YOU GET OUTTA HERE! QUIT BEING DIFFICULT!!! YOU DO THIS EVERYTIME!!!"

hesitantly, you stepped into the room. unfortunately, as you stepped in, the cup that was slapped out of aoi's hand made violent contact with your nose, causing your eyes to water

"ouch!" your outburst caused the screaming duo to look at you. "lady y/n," aoi ran to you, holding your face. "are you alright?!" you delicately held your nose, nodding slightly. "m-mhm...s'not too bad, don't worry. and i thought i said not to call me that..." she paid your last statement no mind as she turned to glare at the thunder breather. "zenitsu, you idiot! you hurt her!"

as the girls checked up on you, zenitsu felt like he was in a trance

you were the most beautiful girl he's ever laid eyes on. your eyes seemed so gentle, no matter who or what you were looking at; he could stare into them all day. he continued to stare at you, only coming out of his trance once he saw you walking towards him.

"so, what's the issue–um, zenitsu, yes?" your voice was so gentle! even after he just launched a cup to your nose! oh my gosh, you're sitting on his bed! you're so close!

"i..." he paused before throwing his arms around you, burrying his face into your stomach and squeezing you tight. "PLEASE MARRY ME!!!"

huh? marriage?

aoi and the triplets tried to pry him off of you,"LET HER GO THIS INSTANT!" aoi, shouted. "stop this!" the triplets tried to reason."NO WAY! IF I LET HER GO I'LL DIE ALONE! IS THAT WHAT YOU ALL WANT?!?!

so...that's how you met

ever since that day, zenitsu asked for your hand in marriage everyday. you always laughed it off, "at our age? we're far too young for marriage, silly." until one day, you smiled, held his hand and responded with, "how about...we date each other for a while and see if marriage is in our future together 'nitsu."

zenitsu.exe. stopped working

"wait...REALLY?!?! YOU WANNA DATE ME?!?!" zenitsu's jaw couldn't seem to pick his jaw off the floor, gaping at your gentle smile. "of course i do...i-if you'll have me." of course he would! why wouldn't he?!

and that was the start of your beautiful relationship

no matter how many time you say it, however, he still asks for your hand in marriage.

oh, you just so happen to walk past him? "y/n, please marry me!" "sorry 'nitsu, it's too soon." you're hanging up blankets, on the clothes line? he's appearing beneath a blanket with a bouquet of flowers, "y/n, i kindly ask for your hand in marriage!" you stifled your giggle with your hand before cupping his face into your hands and kissing his flushed cheek. "m'sorry love, we're still too young."

later in the relationship, however, you began to catch zenitsu sitting on the floor, his attention intently focused on something in his lap. "hello, zenny." your voice startled him. "eek! oh, y/n-chan hi! what–uh–what brings you here?" your bottom lip jutted out slightly in confusion before trying to peek over his shoulder. "i..live here and...treat people? whatcha workin on?" he quickly turned around, hiding something behind his back. "NOTHING!"

0_0 = your face

"u-um...alright then..." this became a common occurrence, as it happened multiple times a day. anytime you'd ask what he was doing you got the same response, or he would just get up and run. leaving you confused and dumbfounded

until the day you finally got to see what he had been working on, and it melted your heart...

"you know," you started as you were wrapping bandages around the circumference of your boyfriend's head. "the other girls are skilled with this too. it doesn't always have to be me to patch you up, 'nitsu."

your statement may as well have gone in one ear and out the other. however, you couldn't stop the soft smile that etched across your face as you watched zenitsu subconsciously lean into your touch with his usual lovestruck smile.

"but then i get to spend more time with you, y/n-chan. besides," he nuzzled his cheek into your palm, causing you to laugh. "you're always gentle when you do it. aoi is too harsh!"

you lifted an eyebrow. "probably because you are a difficult patient."

"whAt?! i am not!"

you fondly shook your head, continuing to wrap his head in comfortable silence. as you finished bandaging him, you smiled announcing a cheerful "done!" you began to tidy up the bandages and ointments you had strewn on the bed, putting them away.

zenitsu watched you with tender eyes, fiddling with something under the blankets. he knows he's said it to many girls by now, but he truly feels like he could spend the rest of his life with you. he knows you're both young, but he believes he's old enough to know what he wants. however, he is also mindful of your wanting to wait until you're older. which is why...

"y/n-chan," he smiled at the gentle hum you gave in response. "i...i have something i want to give you."

you put the remaining bandages in a drawer before making your way back to the bed zenitsu was resting in, sitting next to him. you tilted your head, "what is it?"

zenitsu carefully pulled the object from beneath the blanket, bringing it into view. he held it out to you, urging you to take it. you looked down at it, carefully observing it.

a cup.

gingerly taking it from him, "zenny," you couldn't help but burst into laughter once you realized what it was. "is this the cup you hit me in the face with when we first met?"

"h-hey!" his face flushed in embarrassment. "don't think of it like that! to me...it's the very thing that made me lay eyes on your for the first time." he gestured to the cup, causing you to inspect it some more. "and it led to a lot of great moments with you..."

you nearly cried.

littered all around the cup, were small paintings. paintings of moments throughout your relationship. the time he launched this very cup into your nose, the first time you took care of him after a mission, the first date, even the time inosuke was chasing you and zenitsu carried you out of "harm's way." and in the mix of the small scenes were mini butterflies and lightning bolts.

honestly, the lines were pretty wobbly, and the brush work wasn't the best. but you didn't care about any of that. not in the slightest. he managed to capture some of the sweetest moments of your relationship on the very object that sparked your relationship.

without a doubt, this was the sweetest thing anyone has done for you.

you gently cupped zenitsu's face in your hands, pulling him closer to you and softly pressing a kiss to his lips. your kisses were always so soft and sweet, just like you, and they nearly made him faint(he actually did faint the first time you two kissed).

"nitsu," you pulled away, caressing his cheek with your thumb. "we should get married." a beat of silence passed.

"...HUH?!?! Y-Y-YOU WANT TO—?!?!"

he fainted.

you watched in disbelief as zenitsu fell back onto the soft bed, his cheeks slightly red, knocked out cold. with a delightful sigh and a shake of your head, you stood up, careful not to wake him.

"oh well," you pulled the blanket over him before planting a gentle kiss to his forehead.

"we can talk about it some more when you wake up."

Hiya, anon!👋🏾

This one might be kinda tough, depending on kyojuro's long-term goals.

I agree with you. Kyo definitely has an open mind, and he can get along with nearly anybody. When he first met his potential s/o, he wouldn't mind what their theological values/beliefs were. Everyone is entitled to live their lives the way they see fit, and if his s/o did not take them down a path of faith, who is he to judge?

There could be many reasons for his s/o's lack of faith. A lot of trauma can be caused by religious views if not taught correctly. If it was something that was forcibly put onto them, then he'd understand why they choose came to their own conclusion of there not being a God. He'd accept them either way.

The only way I can see this becoming a deal-breaker is if you both want children. Which, like you said, kyojuro's more on the traditional side of things, so I'd see him wanting a family. However, it could be an uphill battle that can't be won if they can't decide what to teach. Ultimately, their child/children will decide what they believe in the long run, but their could be a lot of arguments between the two when deciding whether or not they would like their child/children to practice religion or not.

Hiya anon!👋🏾

Thank you, love! I'm glad you enjoy my writings! <3

Honestly, yeah, I'm still stumped on a pt. 2 for that one.🥲 It was an idea that just came out of nowhere, so I just wrote it on a whim without thinking about continuing it.

A couple ppl sent some, and I have them saved away in my notes app lol

Hiya, anon!👋🏾

Good question! I haven't thought about it before tbh. With Kyojuro, I honestly don't think he'd have a preference. Dating either one would have their own set of pros and cons.(I kinda got carried away😅)

With a civilian:

It's probably safe to assume that they'd have no way of protecting themselves from a demon if Kyojuro isn't there(which would be a lot since demon slayer work is strenuous). And I remember in the Mugen Train Ark that they weren't allowed to have their swords blatantly shown in public. So, unless they interacted with a demon themselves and lived to tell about it, there's a good chance that Kyojuro's s/o(or any other civilian) wouldn't even know demons exist. Plus, it's not like demons make it a point to make their presence known. So if they heard about them, they might believe it to be speculation/rumors. Kyojuro might have to keep his occupation a secret for a while, which is extremely difficult, but later in the relationship when trust is built between the two, he'd come clean and tell them about the extra precautions he set up in order to protect them when he's not around(ex: wisteria around the house).

While that could be a downfall in the relationship, a relationship like this would give Kyojuro a stable place to return to every night. If a wisteria house isn't in the vicinity of his latest mission, he's always welcome at your home. His own home life isn't the best, so he loves being able to come to his s/o's place for some form of normalcy at home. He even brings Senjuro on multiple occasions, and they have a big sleepover. So dating a civilian would come with extra risks, but it could provide more stable household to come back to.

With a fellow slayer:

They have the means to protect themself. Regardless if they're a Hashira or not, Kyojuro knows that they know how to defend themselves. Just passing Final Selection is rigorous enough and something to be proud of, so he wouldn't have to be as worried about them encountering a demon. He'd still worry, of course, but not as much. On the flip side, if his s/o is carrying out a mission on their own, he's still worrying tbh. Really, if he's dating a slayer, he's comforted by the thought of them knowing how to defend themselves while also being worried about them constantly.

BUT if he dates a slayer, they get to spend more time together. If their breathing styles are the same/similar, Kyojuro's more than happy to train his s/o at the Hashira HQ. Even if the breathing styles are different, he'd be more than willing to teach them whatever their heart desired, so there's a chance that(if they're not on a mission) Kyojuro and his s/o are constantly training together(quality time, yay!😊) Ngl, it probably wouldn't be hard to convince Kagaya to send Kyojuro and his s/o on missions together. They work well together, and sending them together better ensures they'll come back alive. However, with them both being demon slayers, there's a constant fear on both ends when they go on solo missions.

Sooo, yeah, I think there's a lot for Kyojuro to consider when starting a relationship with a slayer or civilian s/o. Ultimately, I don't think he'd "prefer" one over ther other, but–whoever he ends up with–he's more than willing to make it work.😊
