Hello!!! Come read me slowly fall more and more in love with the platonic and familial relationships in this show hahahahahahahaha

Summary:

The 1,000-year war against the Demon King had finally ended, thrusting humanity into a new era of peace. However, it was hard-won, with many devastating losses. The sacrifices were worth it in the end, but that didn’t mean they didn’t leave wounds that would take a lifetime to heal for the survivors.

Former demon, Kamado Nezuko, lamented being unable to properly meet many of the people from her memories before Muzan and his creations cruelly killed them. Still, she did her best to look forward to the future.

Sometimes, she would overhear talk of regrets and what-ifs. And each time, she would silently recall how she barely even had a choice in the time she lost after her humanity was stripped away from her. Could she have made a bigger difference if she could choose?

The opportunity to answer that question came with her waking up to find herself biting down on a familiar bamboo muzzle.

 TLDR: Post-canon Nezuko gets thrown back in time to the start of the series with her consciousness and memories intact. She is determined to work towards a better future. imo there's not enough Nezuko-centric time travel fix-its

I've been having this HUGE writer's block for the Nezuko fixit fic and haven't updated in months. Just wanted to reassure anyone seeing this since I once had a scare at the start of the year.

And they could be tricked into thinking so many things about the series because of my fic that doesn't actually happen in the series, especially if this person doesn't read the comments and the start and end notes.

Imagine reading the fic first and watching the anime because you got intrigued enough, only to find out the found family mountain isn't supposed to be an entire arc and was actually condensed into a couple of episodes. Or that Zenitsu was done dirty by his creator and done even dirtier by the anime studio. Or that Giyuu actually disappears from the Kamado's lives for 2 entire years. Etc etc.

For now, I have no plans to change when and how they encounter Inosuke, but that can always change!

I was going through the appearances of the Ubuyashiki quintuplets throughout the series to help me with planning for my fic and I wound up wondering why Kiriya wasn't present for the Kamado Trial. That seemed like a very important occasion you would want the next leader of the Corps to witness.

But then I remembered how Kokushibo assassinated the Ubuyashiki leader of his time and presented his head to Muzan. It was probably through sheer happenstance that the poor son wasn't also killed in the process.

This, along with leading to the formation of the Kakushi, must have led the Ubuyashikis to be more careful about letting both head and heir be in the same areas for safety reasons.
