ใ a/n: HELLO OMG i am so glad to be back from my hiatus and i'm pleased to give u all this jjk fluff !!! i made it a bit longer than the usual scs bec i wanted to make up for my absence. thank you for waiting for me and i really hope you like this bec i took this too seriously and did some research on famous spots and even the airports in japan lmao
you just finished claiming your bags and were on your way out of the airport terminal when a large cardboard caught your attention. it was large enough to take up four persons worth of space and the glitter splattered all over it did not help in the slightest.
you chuckled to yourself and walked towards it. yuuji himself was obscured by the banner he was holding and did not notice you approaching. but as soon as he got a whiff of your familiar perfume, he dropped the banner and set his gaze on you.
not wasting a second, he dashed straight to you, forgetting to reduce his speed. the impact his collision had on you set you tumbling on the floor as he remained hugging you. you let out a hearty laugh and hugged him tightly back.
"you're back! you're really back!" he exclaimed and snuggled closer to you. you tread your fingers along his soft locks and used your elbow to sit yourself up, yuuji refusing to let go.
"mhm, i'm here yuu. i'm home" you replied and ijichi came to your aid helping you with your baggage as your boyfriend showed no signs of letting go anytime soon.
arriving at the dorm, you only got a quick glance at the other students before yuuji dragged you to his room. he then proceeded to make some snacks as you went for a shower.
afterward, yuuji then asked you to tell him how your mission went, the sights that you saw, the curses you encountered, and your overall experience. he looked like a cute little puppy while listening to you talk, eyes wide and sparkling and a genuine smile never leaving his lips once.
when evening came, he let you rest to your heart's content, knowing that it was a long and arduous journey for you and even though you try your best to hide it, the fatigue and exhaustion were evident in your subtle actions.
the way your knees buckled when you walked out of the airport, your droopy eyes when you both watched a film, your trembling fingers, and your weak grip when you put away the snacks earlier, yuuji saw it all.
he let you snuggle him and rest your head on his chest as he held you close, keeping you safe and warm in his embrace. he smiled to himself as he heard your soft snores and felt your heartbeat become slow, matching his.
for the next two weeks, yuuji spent as much time with you as possible while making sure you still get some rest. sometimes even hiding from gojo because he knows that the tall man will probably come to drag you away to another mission.
be it watching a movie, going to a football game, going bowling or karaoke, or strolling in the night market โ yuuji did everything to make you feel at home once again. he made sure that after months-long of exorcising curses, you get the peace and comfort you have.
"gojo's calling me, what is it this ti-" before you could even finish your sentence, your boyfriend snatched your phone from you and turned it off, stashing it in his pocket.
"your ice cream will melt baby, eat up now" he replied and pulled you close by the waist, making you chuckle as you gave him a kiss on the cheek.
of course, you felt at home. yuuji is your home after all.
meanwhile, on the other side of the phone, gojo was sulking because he also wanted to get ice cream with you guys!
after claiming your bags from checkout, you began to make your way out of the terminal and your eyes quickly scanned across the area to look for any signs of megumi waiting for you. he sent a message earlier that he had arrived at the waiting area.
you squinted and tried to look for him amidst the sea of people wearing monochrome shirts. you sighed to yourself and tried to sense the strongest cursed energy in the crowd, and finally succeeded in locating megumi.
he was near the entrance, in a secluded area and his hands were frozen mid-air. it was as if he was hesitating to wave over to you or pull out his phone instead to make a call, but his eyes met yours and he knew there was no need for either.
you hurried over to him as your luggage dragged carelessly behind you. you engulfed him in a hug as soon as he was within arm's length which took him by surprise, but he chuckled softly and wrapped his arms around you as well.
"you're here" he whispered as he slowly ran his hands up and down your back as if he was trying to convince himself. you smiled to yourself and pat his back reassuringly.
"i'm here, 'gumi."
originally, megumi wanted you to stay back at your home so that you will be able to get over your jet lag and adjust properly to the weather and time in japan. however, his plans to cuddle you to sleep went down the drain when you asked ijichi to take you both to tsudome.
"huh? tsudome...?" he mumbled to himself as he played with your hands, wondering why you made such a specific request. your giggle made the wheels turn in his head as he finally put the pieces together.
"oh, so that's what it is. i thought you insisted to stay in sapporo because your home is here" he said and looked at you in the eye. "you want to attend the snow festival"
megumi allowed you to drag him around the hills as you took him sledding and skiing, the winter sunshine falling upon the both of you as you lay on the snow creating snow angels.
you rode a snowmobile and explored the community dome, marveling at the enormous snowballs that were as big as entire buildings. your eyes were glued to the snow formations that you missed the way megumi was intently staring at you, basking in your presence and warmth.
making your way to odori park, you both rented ice skates to roam around the park hand in hand as you ate to your heart's content. you handfed megumi multiple times, much to his embarrassment as passers-by teased him for being so shy, which he responded to by scratching his hair.
to end the night, you both stood to one side while drinking milk tea, watching the light shows and stage performances deep into the night. you exchanged opinions on the performances as well as the designs of the light show.
megumi never felt so alive and at peace in the past eight months.
your boyfriend was huddled up to you, his face resting on the crook of your neck as he listened to your heartbeat. his arm was draped over your waist while the other rested below his head. you looked down at him to see a dreamy look on his face.
"i've missed this, so much. everyday i wonder how you're doing, and..." he trailed off and looked up at you, his eyes holding so many emotions that you can't describe each one. but adoration and love reigned over the others.
"you're here now, so i'm really happy" megumi seldom shows so much of his feelings and it struck you right then and there how much your absence affected him. so, instead of words, you held him tighter and planted a kiss on his forehead.
the night ended with you both sleeping in each other's arms, and megumi felt warmth and satisfaction when he woke up โ and you were still beside him.
you sleepily dragged your luggage behind you as you began to make your way out of the airport terminal, the jet lag clinging onto your bones as you scanned your eyes among the mass of people waiting for their relatives.
it didn't take long for you to spot nobara in the crowd, wearing a brown trench coat which she paired with converse. her hair had noticeably grown longer from the ten months that you were away, it was now resting atop her chest.
you made your way over to her and let out a grin at how she was still craning her neck, trying to spot you in the crowd of arrivals. you walked up to her and tapped her shoulder and she looked up at you, raising an eyebrow.
"huh? who are you?" she asked with her signature snarky voice, making you smile inwardly. she still has such a feisty personality in the seven months you were overseas. it took a few more seconds of her scrutinizing stare before her eyes went wide and she pounced on you, clinging onto you will all of her limbs.ย
โyou damned piece of crap! you were gone too long and you even had a whole makeover that i canโt even recognize you. even your scent! it changed, your hair, your style, your aura, and you even grew much taller! itโs all different now. you canโt blame me for not recognizing you! itโs all your-โย
โlove, love please calm down, iโm not blaming you. iโm also well aware that i changed drastically hmm?โ you encircled your arms around her and put your hand over her mouth as you dragged her out of the airport.ย โthe only thing that did not change is my feelings for you.โ
she flushed light pink and lightly hit you on your shoulder. she then proceeded to walk you towards the subway station, making you confused.
โhuh? wonโt ijichi be picking us up? i clearly gave him a call earlier today, and told him to drive us homeโ you said and halted in your tracks, whipping out your phone to dial ijichiโs number but nobara snatched it away from you.ย
โnope, weโre taking the subway to get to asakusa ekimise and spend your first day back doing shoppingโ she revealed a large grin and laughed maniacally as she waved gojoโs black card in your face. you sighed helplessly and submitted to her.
arriving at ekimise, she dragged you to different stores, particularly clothing stores. the fashion style in the west showed a lot of skin which was not good for the rainy weather in japan now.
she chose numerous pieces of clothing for you as you sat on one side and watched her roam around the entire store as attendants followed her. you laughed at how easily she used and swiped gojoโs card like it was not a big deal.
โwhat do you mean where is the owner? thatโs my father, do i have to get him from his meeting to buy this?!โ
after shopping, which you felt took quite a toll on gojoโs pocket, she treated you to a nice udon restaurant as you both ate to your heartโs content.
โah really, nothing ever beats home food. the pasta is too oily in america, the chicken is too dry, and the salads are too dewy. it sucks to live thereโย
as if she werenโt tired enough from running around in 78 clothing and bag stores, she proceeded to take you to an arcade and spent a good 200,000 yen to win you the big plushie.ย
โdarling, you know you couldโve bought me tons of stuff toys with what you used to buy tick-โ
โshut up, i worked hard for it! i think i used up all my luck to get this penguin for youโ she replied and shoved it to your chest, making you laugh as you leaned to kiss her forehead.ย
you both took the subway to return to the dorms as it was past 9 and going to shikoku would take too much time. seven minutes into the train ride and you felt a weight on your shoulder.
you looked down to see your girlfriend asleep, head resting on your shoulder as she had her right arm draped over you. her mouth was slightly ajar and you could hear her mumble about how glad she is that you were home.ย
you chuckled to yourself and carefully set down the shopping bags onto the floor. you pulled her closer and rested her head on your chest and pressed your chin atop her head.ย
โiโm really happy that iโm home too, my love.โย
you admired the view below you as the private jet you arranged began to descend on the runway. your mission was supposed to end in eleven days but because of your boyfriend's nagging and sulky demand for you to be home for your 3rd anniversary, you entrusted the cleaning up and reports to kinji, who obliged.ย
after exiting the jet, you were engulfed in a large hug and tackled to the ground. you wrapped your arms around him in retaliation and sighed contentedly.
you both sat on the ground, hugging, for the next few minutes. you missed toge so much. his hugs, his warmth, his scent, his presence, and the entirety of him.
after pulling away, he pressed a kiss to the corner of your lips which sent jolts of electricity down your spine and caused you to shiver.
"tuna," he said and caressed your face gently.
"mhm, i'm here now love, not going anywhere"
you took the car keys from your caretaker and instructed him to move your bags and the souvenirs to the dorm.
"where are we off to? the whole day is ours, baby" you asked and started the engine. toge whipped out his phone and showed you an image.
"sega shinjuku? huh bringing me to an arcade the first thing. alright then" you replied and drove off to the said destination.
as to not distract you from driving, toge opted to talk to you in morse code, tapping on your arm as he urged you to tell all the details about your missions and shenanigans in europe. you see how his eyes light up as he listens which brought a smile to your face.
upon arriving at the destination, he handed you a hoodie which you unfolded. it took a few seconds before you started wheezing out in laughter.
it was a gray hoodie with the text "3 years with this goofy boy" and an arrow to the left in a comic font. you also took note of the snake and fangs seal embossed on the chest area of the hoodie.
"baby what is this? hahahahahaha! is this even a thing? don't tell me you expect me to wear this for today!" you exclaimed and folded the hoodie. you saw how his eyes drooped and a pout formed on his face.
you unfolded it just as quick and removed your coat to wear it over your top. he smiled at the gesture and wore his as well, letting out a laugh at how adorable you looked.
entering the arcade, you went straight to the cashier and asked how many games and machines the arcade has. after receiving an answer, you proceeded to purchase 1,500 tickets, leaving the cashier and toge in shock.
"takana...?" your boyfriend mumbled and tugged on your sleeve, making you let out a small smile as you kissed him on the cheek. "there's almost five hundred claw machines here, we should try everything three times" you responded and claimed 800 tickets from the cashier, deciding to claim the other 700 later for the second floor.
to your surprise, he got so much better at playing claw machines. before you left, he was already incredible and always managed to win repeatedly. but now, this was a whole new level of amazing! he could get the prizes in two to three tries.
you faked a huff of annoyance as you failed to get the minion plushie for the sixth time. you pouted and turned to him and he walked towards you, positioning himself behind. he placed his hands on yours and guided the claw machine to the biggest plushie. then, he took your left hand and pressed the button.
you got the plushie. well technically, he did. but it's still yours.
you jumped like a little kid in excitement and gave him a few kisses on the face, causing him to blush a bright red, raising his collar to hide how flushed he was.
what was supposed to be an anniversary date turned out to be a childish competition between the two of you to see who would win more from the claw games. at some point, you could tell that he was purposely losing for you but you didn't mention anything.
after two hours, you finished going through the first floor and loaded all the prizes you got into the car, filling the back seat immediately. afterward, you returned to the arcade and claimed the remaining tickets, ready to explore the second floor.
it took another two hours, countless impatient looks from mothers, and a whole heap of crying kids (because you both keep hogging all the prizes) for you to scour the entire second floor.
loading all the prizes in the car, you couldโve sworn you saw a few phones and tablets and limited edition figurines in there. the back seats and trunk were filled with prizes with no space in between, making you both laugh in happiness.
afterward, toge took you to a well-known tonkatsu restaurant for dinner. you really missed authentic japanese food, those recreations in europe couldn't compare.
you both talked about your own missions, though it was more of you recalling all of your thirteen months in europe. you then realized just how long you really were away and how you missed out, physically, on a large portion of your's and toge's relationship.
seeing your eyes water and lips tremble, toge scrambled to your side and held your hands. "takana?"
you hid your face in his neck and hugged him for a few seconds before shaking your head. "i'm sorry, for being away for so long. and for leaving you alone all those months" you replied. you only came home once in those months, during his birthday โ only for four hours.
he shook his head and pulled you close again, tracing letters on your back.
โit's not your fault you're a special grade and your skills are meant for great things. if anything, i'm thankful because we found love in this dangerous line of work.โ
the ride home was silent, but a comfortable one. toge's hand rested on yours as the music plays through the radio. he could tell you were still a bit down and unfocused, but he didn't dare address it now.
arriving at the dorms, you could hear the others from a distance, busy fighting over the souvenirs you brought home. you looked at the car-filled arcade prizes and chuckled.
before you got the chance to unload them, your lover pulled you to one side and kissed the side of your head. he gave you a small smile, and the light of the moon made him appear extra soft. he then proceeded to sign;
โit does not matter how long you were away or how busy we were. what matters is that i am your home and i am always here for you. and you will always come back to me whenever the world tires you out.โ
you were puzzled as your flight slowly began to descend in kansai international airport. after spending eight long months in australia to take care of missions and tasks, you were finally back home for your birthday. to celebrate, noritoshi informed you that he got tickets for the tokyo symphony orchestra and that it will be held in new national theatre.
logically speaking, haneda airport was nearer to the theatre rather than kix, but your boyfriend was adamant to make you land at this airport instead and you did not have the room to complain since he was the one who arranged everything.
after landing, his caretaker welcomed and greeted you and took your baggage. you made your way to the car where noritoshi was waiting in the driver's seat. after getting in, you gave him a quick kiss on his cheeks since you knew that he is not a fan of pda.
to your surprise, however, he pulled you back for a heated kiss that lasted sixteen seconds. his gaze to you was burning afterward but you took note of how red his ears and neck were, making you smile softly.
"how was your flight?" he put on your seatbelt and started the engine, beginning to drive towards your destination.
"you got me in first class, of course, it was great" you replied and noticed how the car was getting further from tokyo. you pointed it out to noritoshi, "hey, toshi. we're going further in osaka, the theatre's the other way."
"patience" is all he said and gave your thigh a firm squeeze. you shrugged and leaned back, thinking that he might have had a last-minute change of plans.
after forty minutes, you found yourself in the vip parking lot of maruzen intec arena and the clouds in your head started to dissipate. toshi opened the door for you and you jumped out as your eyes began to take in the buses parked around you.
"love, there's no way... you.. you took me to see the fivb world championship? nippon... i'll get to see them!" you said happily and tugged on his sleeve repeatedly. he only let out a sigh and opened the backseat and retrieved a small box.
it contained banners, posters, fans, bubble heads, a headband, and even a red jersey similar to the ryujin nippon's. with this, you jumped around as if you didn't go through an immense jet lag.
you changed into the jersey and put on the headband. you were a bit disappointed to see that toshi still sported a beige button-down shirt but shook the thought away when you see him patiently holding the mini box for you.
he let out a loud laugh when he sees you frozen as ice and red as a tomato when you see that your seats are right behind the team bench. he watched as you fiddled around and followed the movements of the roster as they entered the arena.
during the first few minutes of the game, you were too timid and shy to cheer loudly, mindful of the team sitting three meters away from you, but as the game became more aggressive and heated, you let go of your worries and cheered with all your lungs and power.
toshi was silent beside you, still holding the box with one hand and a banner in the other (per your instructions) as he studied your features. his heart warmed at the thought of how easy it was to make you joyful and how he'd give everything just to see such a pretty smile on your face every day.
during the second set, the camera panned to the two of you making the crowd erupt in laughter. you were holding a yuki banner and wore headbands which had ran's face on it as you cheered loudly for nippon. toshi, on the other hand, was holding an akihiro bubble head and looked borderline pissed at how unrestrained you were at cheering for the national team.
the team even took notice of both of you and chuckled. the rest of the game played out smooth and nice and you were busy either munching on snacks or cheering. your boyfriend was either staring intently at you while grimacing at how loud the arena is or stepping out for a bit for air.
after the team secured the victory, advancing to the finals, you howled with all you got that noritoshi had to calm you down. he wanted to grimace at how much attention you were both getting but with the gleeful expression on your face, he didn't have the heart to do so.
afterward, he took you to a cafe to calm your senses and get you down from your endorphin and adrenaline rush. you talked about your missions and tasks and journey in australia as he listened attentively and replied accordingly.
"you hate those atmospheres, noisy and jam-packed crowds. it doesn't suit your 'classy and elegant' style. i genuinely thought we were seeing the orchestra" you said and took a sip from your drink.
he hummed and put down his tea before reaching out a hand to take yours in his. "i do, i hate the noise and stench of sweat. but i did not want you to fall asleep on your first day back" he said and glanced at you.
"you know, i would typically be envious of how energetic you were when cheering for those men" he trailed off and traced circles on the back of your hand.
"but?" you urged him to continue and leaned forward to play with his cute pigtails.
he smiled at your gesture and planted a kiss on your knuckles. "there's a wide stretch between us. you look at them with admiration. but you look at me with adoration and love. they could never compete" he responded and gave you the softest and gentlest gaze ever. the ones that you've been missing for eight months.
under the dim lights of the cafe, the jazz music in the background, the scent of coffee beans, and the faint whiff of syrups, the moment between you and your toshi felt more intimate and romantic. and you felt glad to be home.
you made a mental note to tell utahime-san to not give you an overseas mission for the next year.
"yes, my darling. you're the only one for me, the one i'll always come home to. i'll choose you every day, no matter what, for as long as i live" you responded and pressed your forehead against his.
"yeah? gonna choose me over taishi onodera?" he joked and pinched your cheeks.
you gave him a half-hearted glare and shoved a piece of bread in his mouth. "know your limits."
additional a/n: the name of the game is, guess whoโs the authorโs favorite :> though i think itโs pretty obvious at this point. hope you guys liked this and have a great day!

Weird request but- if that's okay could i request Zenitsu, Tanjiro and Inosuke with a demon slayer reader that comes from another country but knows doesn't know japanese? Like the first time they met for a mission they literally communicate with gestures. They do learn pretty quickly in the end but their lack of knowledge often leads to hilarious situations/shenanigans (So crack basically!!).
cw: contains manga spoilers (entertainment district arc), language
word count: 1.1k
characters: tanjiro, inosuke, zenitsu x gn!reader
author's note: omggg this is the first req i've received and i'm glad that ppl want to read my works! i'll do my best here even though i'm not that good at crack! thank you sm and have a great day <3
oiran - used to address a high-ranking prostitute in taisho period of japan
kamaboko squad || hashira pt. 1 || hashira pt. 2
โ๏ธ tanjiro kamado
first and foremost this guy is amazed, and also kinda puzzled that demon slayers existed outside japan
you stumbled upon him when he was going undercover as a hostess too in the red light district
you two immediately recognized each other, because of his keen sense of smell and because of your sharp eyes
IT WAS A MESS
you resorted to just helping the people evacuate because you did not want to get in the way of combat
you learned japanese pretty quickly but there was still some naivety when it comes to their inside jokes and culture
a lot of dumb moments with this guy
it was a mess, because you two cannot understand each other. it was a whole two hours of gestures and drawing of diagrams and pictures. you had to hold back your laugh at tanjiro's poor illustration of his friends and the pillar. after confirming each other's identity, tanjiro brought you to the meet up place of him, inosuke, zenitsu and uzui.
there was one thing though, the language barrier. the only thing that made communication possible was because of uzui's knowledge of the language you speak, being a former shinobi
you managed to get your message across, that you'll be responsible for evacuating the people, since the four of them are the ones who are able to communicate during combat
after that, you sticked to tanjiro, and the two of you managed to understand each other. it was funny at times though, because you are gullible, and he's an airhead
"so, the pillar that night is the god of flamboyance?" you asked, you never knew that japan had these kinds of god. he nodded feverently as he continued to eat.
"how about you, which do you rule over?" you inquired and he stopped eating, looking straight at your eyes. he blinked once, twice, thrice.
"rule over?" he asked back
"yes, aren't you a god too?" you queried carefully. he put down his chopsticks and began to blink rapidly. he pointed to himself and tilted his head while looking back at you
"i'm a god?"
"are you not?" he seemed like someone who could be the god of honesty, because he was not capable of lying. he racked his brains for answers before giving a firm nod at you
"i am"
โ๏ธ inosuke hashibira
the two of you first met at his solo mission at a nearby town
you were on your way to the headquarters because oyakata-sama requested for some aid and manpower from foreign demon slayer corps
THIS GUY WILL UNDERSTAND IMMEDIATELY
his guesses are not on point but he gets what you're trying to say
even as you learn japanese steadily, this guy will make everything about him
teaches you boar language as well
you were staying at a rest house when a commotion occurred outside. grabbing your sword, you saw a boar head sparring with a demon. apparently, one managed to escape your hold earlier. you opted to get the people to safety to prevent damages
afterwards, you tried to introduce yourself to him and explain your situation but it took a few tries before he understood you (with the help of his kasugai crow).
you weren't able to meet oyakata-sama yet because of personal reasons, so inosuke insisted on taking a detour on the mountains, he taught you a few words that could be useful when communicating during missions
"so you're the boss?" you asked with wide eyes as he let out a boisterous laugh while nodding in agreement
"and you're also the god of the mountain?" you continued, watching as he relished in your acknowledgement and praise. "do you have a shrine? or a temple?" you asked, making him stop in his tracks
dear god you just inserted a new idea in his head.
the next time you meet him was when your aid was needed in a mission in the red light district. remembering that he told you that he was the boss, you exclaimed and greeted him from a distance
"oyakata-sama!!!" you shouted, making tanjiro and zenitsu freeze. uzui's eyes almost popped out of its sockets as he glared down at inosuke.
"WHAT NONSENSE HAVE YOU BEEN TEACHING THE FOREIGN MEMBER!? HOW DARE YOU INTRODUCE YOURSELF AS OYAKATA-SAMA!?"
you didn't mean to almost end inosuke's life by the hands of uzui, but, he is oyakata-sama? right?
โ๏ธ zenitsu agatsuma
exhilarated at the thought of a new female slayer joining their missions
TRIES SO HARD TO UNDERSTAND YOU
to the point he wants you to teach him your language
the two of you met at the butterfly estate when he was recuperating
you popped in sometimes during their training and during your breaks from japanese lessons
saves you from tanjiro's and inosuke's dumb concepts
"y/n-chaaaan~" he called out upon hearing your footsteps approach them, making him pause from training. he grumbled in annoyance when aoi pulled him back.
introduction was quick, because his enthusiasm went through the roof, and he understood your drawings and diagrams and broken japanese while explaining your circumstances
literally pulls you away from tanjiro and inosuke because he knows that those two will try to trick you into believing false things about japan and its culture
however, he can't always keep his eyes on you
so one day, when you two were training, you brought up a topic that you got from a reliable source (tanjiro and inosuke)
"hey, zenitsu, what's it like being an oiran?" you asked innocently, cleaning the blade of your sword. zenitsu, on the other hand, looked like he was about to butcher two people soon
"w-wha- where did you even get that term?" he asked slowly but you can see his eyes filled with bloodlust. oh how he wanted to bury his friends 6ft underground right now
"well, tanjiro and inosuke told me that you were an oiran" you said, making steam go out of zenitsu's ears
"what did they tell you it meant?" he treaded lightly, making you turn to him confusedly. "well, they told me it is used to address someone who almost turned into a spider" you answered back and zenitsu did not whether to laugh or cry. "i heard about the natagumo mountain mission, there are a lot of oiran in the corps, huh?" you muttered to yourself
safe to say, zenitsu made tanjiro and inosuke feel what it feels to be almost turned into a spider

ใ katsuki bakugo x gn!hero!reader
ใ a/n: after four long months of inactivity, please accept this little work of mine. thank you all for your unending love and support despite my inactivity. this is sort of a gift for xmas, i will try to have another work up before the year ends. hope you like this and have a wonderful day!
ใ reader's quirk is similar to gojo's infinity!!
you relished in the way the villains' face contorted into fear when they realized that their punches and weapons didn't seem to pierce or hit you in any way. even the strongest of them, no matter how forceful and strength-packed his punch is, you stood your ground and pouted at their futile attempts of taking you down.
they slowly backed away until they realized that the one and only dynamight was right behind them, giving them no chance to escape. fleeing by air was not an option either, given how tsukuyomi was also at watch.
their gazes went back to you. compared to dynamight who was fully armed, and tsukuyomi who had dark shadow, you only had yourself and no weapon nor fancy quirk (none that they can see) which made them think that you were the most vulnerable.
going once again at you, they attempted a punch but stopped mere inches from your face, as if there was an invisible wall there, separating your frame from the rest of the world.
you got fed up quick, and all three of you went at the villains, speedily restraining them all within minutes. you dragged them off to the main street, where a few others were also tied up.
you let tsukuyomi report to the police and you watched as they slowly drove away from view. you looked to your side and saw katsuki who was staring at you, intensely. you sighed and walked towards him, giving him a pat on the shoulder.
"i'm tired, 'tsuki. let's go home."
you noticed that katsuki was particularly silent on the way home, even going as far to ignore civilians who were waving at the two of you and scurrying to give gifts. upon arriving home, he went straight to the shower and left you to arrange and store the gifts you received.
you showered after he did and you saw him staring out the window. you got dressed and walked up behind him and gave him a hug. you heard him grunt before pulling away after a few seconds. you furrowed your brows and walked after him, grabbing his wrist and forcing him to look at you.
"katsuki, what's wrong? you've been acting weird ever since we subdued those villains. did i do something wrong?" you asked hurriedly and stared at his face with worry. he only tsked under his breath which made you let go of his wrist, giving him an incredulous look.
you scoffed and looked at him, feeling your nerves start to light up with fire and anger. you suppressed your bubbling irritation and asked him once again, to which he only responded with silence and walked away to the kitchen.
following him, you shut the cupboard he was about to open and asked him "what's wrong with you? why are you being like this?! we were okay when the day started, did i upset you in any way?!" you asked and fumed with anger.
you saw veins on his head as he grit his teeth and nudged you away from him. you stumbled backwards and let out a startled gasp.
"yes! you upset me all the time, all the goddamned time! why are you always the one they see? the one they praise? the one they are always in awe with? do i not compare yo you in any way?! are you so better than me that you are the one they turn to?!" he shouted in anger and slammed his hands on the kitchen counter.
you turned pale and was rendered speechless by his words, he never acted like this, not in the seven years you were together. he never lashed out, at least, never at you. but before you could even try to understand or question him, he continued with his words.
"when they asked for back up earlier, you were the one they called and when we both arrived, they looked as if they did not want me there. and those villains, they looked at me with mockery! they... they saw you as the better opponent which was why they wanted to take you down. and... and on our way home, everyone was, everyone... they all admire you. why can't they see me? why can't i be number one too?" he asked in a hoarse voice as tears spilled past his eyes as he repeatedly slammed whatever surface his hands landed on. his eyes were red with tears, face distorted into hurt and confusion, his voice laced with insecurity and doubt.
it broke you to see him like this. to see him so fragile and so tormented, uncertain and unsure of himself. it hurt you that he was hurting all this time but you did not suspect a thing. the feeling of shame and shock and sadness clawing at your chest all at once when it dawned of you that all these was happening because of you.
you tried to walk towards him and calm him down when a few words fell from his lips, stunning you in place as tears threatened to spill past your eyes as well.
"sometimes, i wish that you'd just disappear. so i can finally be number one" he whispered as his shoulders slumped.
staring at him in horror and betrayal, you felt your chest clench in pain and confusion. you don't know if you heard it right but the thought of those mere words coming from him was enough to feel as if you were stabbed with a thousand knives.
not that you know how that feels.
your hands balled into fists and you tried to suppress your anger as you continued to walk towards him. seeing this, katsuki'a rage was further fueled as he grabbed two bottles of wine and threw them at your feet, the glass shattering into pieces.
you stood still at this action, as you watch him get another bottle and throw them at your feet again. you flinched and backed away, feeling the sharp shards of the glass dig at your feet, ankles, legs, and toes.
you stared up at him and saw his head buried in his hands.
you cannot take this. why would he... why would he resort to such violence when everything could be talked out.
"bakugo katsuki... to hell with you! you... i haven't done anything wrong! all i do is work properly and fulfill my duties as a hero! i've never neglected you as a fiance, i've never disrespected you as a pro hero, i've never humiliated you as a colleague. why must you treat me like this?!" you screamed back at him as the dam broke and tears fell rapidly down your face, mixing with the blood and wine at your feet.
at the sudden increase in your voice, katsuki finally looked at you and your frame, eyes widening as he saw the pool of blood and wine with pieces of glass at your feet. he was rooted in his place as you continued to speak up.
"i've never wanted to outshine you, katsuki. i've never wanted to become number one! heaven knows how much i hate this damned quirk, how much i can never feel the true warmth and touch of another person! i am no hero, i'm just someone incapable of pain and feelings" you muttered and looked at him in the eye, each of your words piercing his chest and leaving behind a bloody trail.
the pain of the shards digging into your flesh and the wine stinging your cuts was nothing compared to the suffocating emotions that clouded your mind and tormented your heart.
"y/n... your... your barrier... where is it? why, why are you wounded? is your quirk not-"
"no! i don't use my quirk around you katsuki! i trust you, i love you, why would i use it around you? i believed that you will never hurt me, i never felt the need to activate it because i felt safe around you" you muttered and lowered your head to suppress your hiccups and stop your tears.
with those words, katsuki realized just how much damage he had done in the last few minutes. he was well aware that your quirk had always been there since you were four, and that you took a lot of time learning how to deactivate it. he thought however, that all this time, you activated it around him too, which added to the hate he felt.
he tried to reach for you but you backed away.
"hah... there's too much resentment and hidden hatred in this relationship. you see me as a rival rather than your fiancee. this..." you took in a sharp breath and removed the engagement ring on your finger.
"this won't work anymore" you said and put it on the counter. katsuki scrambled to put it back on you, grabbing hold of your hands...
only to realize that your barrier was already there.
his eyes turned somber and his whole body stilled. you leaned towards him and pressed a kiss to his cheek, although he never felt your lips, only the cold surface of your barrier.
"let's not meet again."
you turned away and began to walk out, leaving a trail of blood and wine footprints as the shards of glass pressed deeper into your skin. you slammed the door and bakugo felt his heart and hopes shatter at the same time.
his eyes glanced at the silver ring you wore, sitting on the countertop. a small reminder of the countless what if's that will keep him up for the nights to come. cold, dark nights without you by his side.
true to your words, the japanese news headlines the next day was filled with your announcement about moving to australia, to continue your hero career in there, and to never return to japan again.
the following week, the hero rankings changed.
he stood at the number one spot.
he was the number one hero.
but at what cost?

cw: contains manga spoilers (mugen train arc + final battle arc), canon angst
characters: tanjiro, inosuke, zenitsu x gn!reader
โ๏ธ tanjiro kamado
his hands are calloused and scarred, years of swinging blades and training are to be thanked for this
he's a bit concerned about the state and feel of his hands but he does not let it hinder him from holding yours
holds hands absentmindedly, he does not even realize that he is holding your hand
does not matter when or where, he will hold your hand if he feels like it, as long as you are comfortable ad okay with it
loves playing with your fingers, running his fingertips along the expanse of it and twisting and pulling at it lightly to relieve the tension it has
in the midst of battles, his hand will still find yours and grip onto it tightly before unleashing a breathing technique
he likes holding hands at solemn moments too, when you two are recuperating from injuries, when you are taking breaks from training. for tanjiro, it is the short, stolen moments that makes it meaningful
and when the flame hashira passed away right in front of him, he held on to your hand so tight as if his life depended on it
and when muzan took control of his senses, it was your touch that brought him back. the scent of your hand and the smooth curves of your palms brought him back
for tanjiro, your hand is his anchor in this stormy world
โ๏ธ inosuke hashibira
his hands are rough and scarred after all those years of living and surviving in the mountains, also a bit sweaty at times
he actually has no issues with his hands, says that the scars shows his manliness and victories, and you couldnโt agree more
holds your hand all the time, you have to pry your hand off his grip most of the time because he is reluctant to let go
does not let the others see it though, so he walks behind the squad during missions, beside you, just to hold your hand
traces the lines on your palm with his nail, also likes to draw random stuff on your palm, letting you guess what he just drew
but there are times when he does not want to hold hands
that is in the midst of battles, and when he is injured
he does not want you to feel the coldness of his palms and does not want to hold you with bleeding hands
he really loves your hands, making flower rings from the prettiest flowers he found in the forest, makes sure you have at least 5 of it.ย
even better if you have smaller hands than him, because he likes to compare hand sizes and wants to keep your hands warm by sandwiching it between his
your touch brings him warmth and solace that he failed to have during his childhood
โ๏ธ zenitsu agatsuma
has surprisingly rough hands accompanied by chipped nails, all because of the years spent under anxiety and pressure brought about his inability to perform the rest of the thunder breathings
the time or place does not matter, this guy doesn't let go of your hand
always holds on so tight, to the point that your hand becomes numb and his knuckles turn white, you're surprised he hasn't broken your bones yet
comes up to you and just holds it, sometimes using it to pat his head, or to cradle his face, he adores hand holding
when i said never lets go, i mean never. not in battles, not during recuperation. he only lets go when you are taking a bath
there's also one scenario wherein he lets go, but he often prays that this scenario does not occur often
he lets go of your hand when he's hindering you during a combat
so, after letting go and putting some distance to let you move freely, he waits until the demon you are facing turns to nothing but ashes
checks your hands for injuries, cuts, wounds. he doesn't want to see your hand dirtied or fractured
kisses on the knuckles before sleeping
your caress to zenitsu is like his beacon of light in the dark world, an affirmation that you'll stay, always

cw: yoriichi backstory spoilers, misspellings, not proofread
characters: [slight ooc] yoriichi x gn!reader
author's note: HAPPY VALENTINES MY LOVELIESSS!! I HOPE YOU ALL SPEND THIS DAY NICELY WITH YOUR LOVED ONES ( ห ยณห)โฅ๏ธ also, they made douma look so hot in the new ep oh great heavens. added a bit more than jusy /dating/ relationship hcs and added more sweetness because it's 02/14! i hope u enjoy this and have a lovely dayy!! <33
it doesn't matter who liked who first, yoriichi will confess to you as soon as he is sure about his feelings
will also find the right timing and place for his confession, to make sure that you are comfortable
although he does care about your feelings, he does not mind the chances of reciprocation. he's at ease as long as he's able to confess
in the early stages of your relationship, yoriichi is kind of awkward and hesitant about the way he acts around you
kind of treats you like you're made of glass and very tense when you two are alone
but all that dissipates after a few weeks
takes you out on dates at least once a week, it is an unspoken rule
be it he plans a picnic on a sunday, or shows up at your doorstep at eleven in the evening to go to a hot spring, he will find time to be with you
his kasugai crow will always land at your windowsill every other night, a letter from yoriichi carefully tucked in its beak
the letter's content was about how he was doing, the details of his mission, how much he misses you, how he looks forward to your next dates, and how he falls asleep every night to the thought of loving you the next morning he wakes up
he knows that you know how dangerous and difficult his job is as a demon hunter, which is he reassures you all the time, that he will be safe
lets you treat his wounds (very rare though because he always gets out unscathed) because it makes you feel at ease
whenever he comes back from a mission, no matter the duration, he'd always have something for you
be it a new kimono, a trinket, a pair of earrings, or even sweets, yoriichi will never come home empty handed
during his day offs, he'd always ask you if there are places you want to go to or if you only want to stay in
if you choose the former, you two would visit the place you like with yoriichi by your side at all times. not too suffocating nor too far, he's just, there
holds your hand in public as long as you are comfortable with it and takes you to try different cuisines
if anyone gives you any sort of suggestive or ill gaze, all your lover needs to do is to send a condescending gaze to the other person
if ever you want to stay indoors, yoriichi will take this time to help you with the chores
he cooks from breakfast to dinner and tries to minimize your workload
tries to learn how to sew, and does repairs in the faults in the house too
as for sleeping together, yoriichi is fine with either being the small or big spoon, as long as he sleeps nect to you
he prefers to be the small spoon after long missions, while he prefers to be the big spoon on normal days
very gentleman, we already established this on your first date in the night theater
the epitome of beauty, of grace, of purity
yoriichi is everything you'll ever need, you'll ever want
and you're the one he needs, the only one he'll ever need
and as your relationship continues to bloom and grow deeper and stronger, talks about marriage starts to appear
plans about the future are spilled from the lips
and yoriichi is afraid, because nothing is for sure
he's not a god, nor a deity, nor some sort of invincible being, he's no more than just a master of his craft
but yoriichi also wanted to be selfish for once
and it was worth it
the smile on your face when he put the ring on your finger, the blush on your cheeks as you walked down the aisle, the light in your eyes as he pulled you for a kiss
the joy he felt as he tied the knot with you, outwighed all the negative feelings he felt beforehand
cooking meals together, picking fruits in the forest, swimming in the lakes, gardening and planting together
don't forget the silly dances in the living room while he hums your favorite song, the moonlight outside making him look more breathtaking
oh, only if you knew how much yoriichi adored you with every inch of his being
how much he thanks the gods before he sleeps for giving you to him. how much he thanks the gods when he wakes up that he's given another day to be with you
only if you knew how much yoriichi loves you more than his own life and duties
how much he wants to cling to you just like he did to his mother, everyday for the rest of your lives
how much he looks up and respects you because of your strength like his older brother
only if you knew the regret that filled him when he sees you and your unborn child's dead body on the tatami mat
only if you knew that he spent the rest of his life making sure that the same tragedy will never befall on another family
and you do, you know
because yoriichi felt at home at last when he sees you and your brilliant smile in the afterlife, your left arm cradling your son
yoriichi felt at home when he had you both in his embrace
because yoriichi tsugikuni, the founder of all the breaths, the strongest there is, got to where he is today because of you
he managed to have the breath of sun, because you brought it to his world
after endless nights of looking at the moon, you gave him the sun, the stars, and everything else
he was chosen by the gods, he was given the strength, the sight, the power and speed. he was chosen to put an end to the misery in the world
and he's glad you chose him
you chose him to be your home
and that was the best decision you ever made
additional a/n:
me writing the first half: mhm okay, we will write fluff because in this house, we adore yoriichi
me on the second half: yknow what, let's add a pinch of angst because why not
me at the end: OH WAIT YEAH IT'S VALENTINES! oops, hope you still like it though

cw: language, violence, (fake) character death, final battle arc spoilers (for sanemi's), entertainment district arc spoilers [not detailed tho] (for tengen's)
genre: angst
characters: giyuu, sanemi, tengen x gn!reader
author's note: i'm so excited for season 2!!!! have angst scs to prepare for the pain that'll come your way
โ๏ธ giyuu tomioka
"on your left" you exclaimed as you sped through the thick trees of the forest, slicing away the threads that came your way. the male reacted without hesitance, dodging spurts of venom that might immobilize him.
his eyes was trained forward, not minding whatever was happening around him. you just shook your head at this behavior, busy slicing up the balls of thread that hung from the trees, containing members of the corps.
"head to the mizunotos, i'll take care of this area" you urged him and that was all it took for him to dash and hurry to the source of intense aura of malice and killing intent.
soon enough, you got rid of the threads and the kakushis came to your aid. but to no avail, all there is to see is the liquefied bodies of your fellow demon slayers. with a heavy heart, you moved forward to provide assistance to giyuu if he ever needs it.
arriving at the scene, the pungent stench of blood was extreme and you saw giyuu kneeling in front of a body, no, two bodies, but the other one was disintergrating to nothing but ashes. you looked everywhere for the demon but there was nothing here.
"tomioka, where's the demon?" you asked and inched closer to him. receiving no response, you thought that it is already taken care of but the way that his breathing got heavier and poorly muffled sobs. you bent down beside him, eyeing the dead body in front of him.
it was a young man clad in a patterned green and black haori, his dark red hair splayed out on the ground as he bathed in his own blood. the blood was everywhere that you couldn't even determine its source. beside the body was a girl's body.
but its head was nowhere to be found. this girl is a demon but this was not the demon that was responsible for the terrors and disasters in this mountain.
you stood and asked giyuu again. he did not reply still. getting fed up, you gripped his haori and lifted him off the ground, asking him once again. but he was intent on keeping silent.
you punched him. once, twice, thrice, until his lips popped and a bruise formed on his jaw. it was against corps rules but hell, he was letting a possible lower moon get away.
"TOMIOKA GIYUU! SNAP OUT OF IT!" you reprimanded him but there was still no reaction on his face. you caught the attention of some kakushis who didn't know if they should step in or not. reaching your temper limit, you threw him on the ground and towered over him. grabbing his jaw, you made him look at you.
"you can't save everyone" you said in a harsh voice and sped off to follow the faintest scent of a demon that still lingered in the night air.
and giyuu was left in distraught, still processing tanjiro's and nezuko's death. the news of you going missing embedded into his heart.
you can't save everyone.
you can't save everyone.
you can't save everyone.
but why did he feel like he had the ability to save you when your dismembered head appeared in a gift box that was sent to the headquarters?
โ๏ธ sanemi shinazugawa
you laid down on the ground, trying to stop the bleeding the wound was causing. you tried to inch closer to genya who was lying in the ground in an attempt to cover him but the upper moon one's attacks made this feat difficult to achieve.
even gyomei and sanemi was being driven back by the breathing techniques of the demon. his breath of the moon was immensely powerful, accompanied by his blood demon arts. none of you knew that there was a demon who practiced the sword, so the upper moon used this to force you all to a corner.
you stopped struggling when you sensed motion in genya's direction, knowing that he'll get up sooner or later. you resorted to picking up your sword and joining the other hashiras in assaulting the demon.
the demon's speed and accuracy was increasing by the moment and each hit made it difficult for wind, stone, and mist to counterattack. the others turned to you and you took a chance, it might backfire but who cares? you have to shoot your shot.
"breath of thunder, fourth form: distant thunder!" you released a technique, shooting forward waves of lightning bolts, lessening the accuracy of the moon breathing attacks. the hashiras nodded and continued their battle.
the entire ordeal lasted for an hour, costing genya's and muichiro's lives, as well as gyomei's, sanemi's strength and your right eye.
"you know, you can't save everyone" you muttered as the three of you exited the scene after putting muichiroโs body somewhere safe and keeping genyaโs ashes in a container. at your statement, he turned his head to you immediately, glaring at you. he was about to refute against you but a loud tremor from outside disrupted him.ย
going outside, the others was already caught up in a face off with the demon lord himself. you side-eyed sanemi,ย โbut you could at least try to kill who took the lives of your loved onesโ, you raced off to bring the civilians to safety, praying that theyโd be able to deal enough damage to muzan.
afterwards, you joined the others in attempting to get rid of the fearful demon lord. tanjiroโs sun breathing and lady tamayoโs medicine did a great deal of damage to muzan, slowing him down and his regeneration immensely, opening up various blind spots and opportunities to finish him off.
after what seemed like eternity, the young boy put an end to the abomination. it cost a lot of lives, a lot of time and efforts, but it was finally over. the demonsโ reign of terror has been put to an end as the sun began to rise.
three months later, you together with giyuu and sanemi went to kiriya for the official disbandment of the corps, thanking him for all the efforts he put in to defeat kibutsuji.ย
you went to the graveyard of the fallen demon slayers as well as of the ubuyashiki family to pay your respects. the rustling of the wind could be felt and you cleared your throat, placing a flower on oyakata-samaโs grave. you stood up and turned around, meeting sanemiโs purple eyes.ย
โit is true that you cannot save everyone, but those lives you saved will forever be in your debt. so, thank you, sanemiโ you said and gave him a small smile, surprised when he gave you one as well.
โ๏ธ tengen uzuiโ
you shrugged off your disguise, stealthily sneaking out of the brothel as you made your way towards the meet up place that tengen designated for everyone to meet up every night. you received news that the demon was finally located and should be taken care off swiftly and quickly.
en route, you receive the message to head somewhere else first before the meeting spot. you went deep in the ground and found a lot of women and victims tied up by a patterned obi. you notice that these women victims are particularly young and good looking and he wondered if the demon had a special hunger for these types of victims.
you see tengen on his knees with bloodshot eyes and you couldn't decide for what he was feeling or what was running through his mind right now as his wives', makio and suma, dismembered heads laid before him. he wanted to halt the mission and instead provide comfort but you knew that time is of the essence and every second counts in this battle. you knew well that you might be facing an upper moon and that was more reason to act fast.
โtengen, weโll come back for them laterโ you started out gently and tapped his shoulders.ย you know it wasn't easy for him to lose two of his wives in this mission because of his responsibilities and because he was too late. deep inside you know that he might be blaming himself, he might even be thinking of going back, afraid that more leaves will be at stake.ย
turning to inosuke and zenitsu, you gave them an order.ย โfollow the noise and provide assistance to your friendโ they did not dare delay, quickly going out of the bunker and heading to tanjiroโs location.ย
bending down, you nudged tengen on the sides but to no avail. you talked to him and asked him to prioritize defeating the demon but he remained motionless.
fed up, you kicked him in the chest, making him double over from the sudden attack.ย โi know it is not easy for you to lose your wives, but you canโt save everyone, tengen. you might be a former shinobi and a current hashira, but you are not a god!โ
at your statement, the haze lifted from his eyes and he seemed to be able to think clearly now. he mustered up his strength and stood up, dusting off his clothes.ย
โyou are correct! what i just did is not flamboyant. iโll leave this bunker to you then, we have an upper moon to deal withโ he feigned cheerfulness and sped out of the bunker.ย
you released the victims and brought them to a shelter nearby, tending to the critically wounded. you also took makioโs and sumaโs heads, placing them on a makeshift box you made and waited for some women to wake up before heading out and providing assistance to the battle.ย
moments later, the door opened, revealing a woman with long black hair and a box of kunai, infused with wisteria extract. you recognized her as hinatsuru, one of tengenโs wives.ย
โmakio.... suma... they... where-?โ she stopped herself as she saw two plain boxes on the table beside you. at the same time, some women began to wake up so you urged hinatsuru to go with you.ย
โweโll come back for them, tengen needs our assistanceโ and assistance should the two of you provide.
as the battle came to an end, and the poison removed from tengenโs bloodstream, the husband and wife cried in each otherโs arms, tengen announcing his resignation to obanai. before the couple walked away, tengen turned to look at you.ย
โi cannot save everyone, but i still saved a lot of people. and i did it flamboyantly!โ you laughed and waved him off, he and his wife carrying a box each.
additional a/n: MAKIO AND SUMA DOES NOT DIE. i just needed something to revolve around uzui. i want them as my wives too :(

Hiya bestie! What about some cute headcanons for our boy Inosuke with a demon reader who has a personality just like Mikasa? Like they met somewhere in the mountains before Inosuke joined the demon slayer Corps and reader got very attached to him and decided to stay by his side? :> <3 Maybe Inosuke also wears a box attached to his back where the reader also remains in and they often fight together in battles :D
Take your time and have a wonderful day! <333 sending much love! *^*
author's notes: this is long overdue but thank you so much for waiting! ( ห ยณห)โฅ๏ธ hope you don't mind that i included zenitsu and genya. i hope you enjoy this and have a wonderful day! <3
โ๏ธ inosuke hashibira
he first met you at the mountains after sundown, sensing your presence meters away
you seemed quiet and fragile and therefore, he took it to his advantage and made sure to end you quickly
yeah, that didn't go as planned
because when his makeshift wooden weapon was mere inches away from your neck, you jumped away and began to attack him with no relent
and when his weapon grazed you, your wounds regenerate just as quick as it was wounded
your fight lasted until the moon was high up in the sky and you knew that he was out of stamina
deciding to end this fruitless fight, you broke his wooden weapon
you were surprised that he didn't stop, began to fight you bare handed
you thought he was a nuisance
he is, actually
and so, you went with the next best thing, wounding him on an organ
there, he calmed down and sat beside you after realizing everything was futile
after that, he urged you to tell how you became a demon
you can't tell since you don't remember anything from your human days
inosuke decides that you are useful for battles and takes it upon himself to bring you with him everywhere
you silently agreed too, you found his flexibility scary but intriguing at the same time
he made a box of you out of wood and stones
even though you were quiet, he sensed that you were uncomfortable with the sharp and hard surface of the box
all he got was the widening of your eyes when he brought back a chunk of lion's skin to place inside your box
you punched him hard in the face. how can he expect that you'd sit in a box with semi-fresh lion blood!?
after two nights bickering and settling stuff, he brought you along wherever he goes
you got attached to the boar head so you just went along with him, not having anything better to do
you'd help him fight other demons, because you, though blurred, remember how one killed your mother
he marvels at how you're composed and unwavering everytime
you were also quite skilled in fighting and did not require his aid
when he told you about him joining the corps, you contemplated getting away from him
yeah, he didn't let you, because he needed you in battles
and because he also grew attached (heโll never admit this)
soon, you two met tanjiro and nezuko, and you two aren't so lonely anymore
you'd always fight alongside him on his solo missions and find herbs whenever his injuries are too serious
you seem indifferent and unbothered but inosuke knows you care, silently and in your own way
inosuke was just on his way home that fateful sunset, he never felt it in his intuition that heโd find his home, in you
โ๏ธ zenitsu agatsuma
he met you at his training grounds late at night, when he was silently practicing behind his grandfatherโs back
you looked at ease and charming under the moonlight, sitting on the grass as you watched the flowers dance
but your combat skills were the opposite
because he accidentally let go of the first technique of breath of thunder and you began to attack him, recognizing danger as the thunder resonated
but when he tried to strike back, youโd just skillfully evade him and snicker at how he was cryingย
the fight did not last long, zenitsu passing out from the fright and fear you brought him
the nights progressed like that
him spying on you as you laid on the grass and admired the moon
you got fed up and asked him things, striking up random conversations
he did too, eager to know more about the demon under the moon
so he got attached
you got attached
you two'd only meet at night, duh his grandpa's a former hashira
soon, he entered the final selection, and you saw him off
he returned a week later, still teary eyed
he started to create a wooden box for you to stay in during his missions (which he's very reluctant to attend)
he filled them with flowers and other decorations and blankets to make you comfortable
you're more part of the corps than he is
simply because you're the one who gets the job done all the time
you fight the demons, evacuate the civilians, calm him down and do everything else
he's very grateful though! and tries to help in other ways
you both met tanjiro and nezuko soon enough, and you were glad to have more company
you were zenitsu's reassurance during his solo missions, and he tries so hard to keep up with you
zenitsu just wanted to train that night, but he was flad to have an encounter with you under the moonlight
bonus! genya + demon!reader (but doesn't follow the request details)
โ๏ธ genya shinazugawa
he met you when he was training at night, figuring out how to move the boulder himejima tasked him to do
he came back to the forest after a shower, freezing in his steps when he felt a demon nearby
taking his gun, he went to the source of the scent and aura
he saw you perched on top of the boulder, looking upwards as you swung your feet around
not hesitating, he fired his gun
only to freeze when you evaded the attack, head whipping to his direction
he was puzzled when you did not show any intent to attack nor to harm him
all you did was stare at him for a few moments, before tapping the space beside you and going back to staring to space
โ "you have a rare blood. it makes me feel thirsty, but somehow you also feel like one of us"
seeing your guard down, he did the same, relaying to you his abilities and skills
you told him in turn your experiences when you are human and how you plan to go on as a demon
you two exchanged words and stories under the night sky, all the way until the sun was nearing the horizon
you hopped off the boulder and waved goodbye to him, fading deep into the forest
he knew a friendship was not possible if he wanted to continue to learn under gyomei
you knew a friendship was not possible because he was a demon hunter
both of you knew that this was only a chance encounter, meant to end just as quick as it began
but to genya, the demon who sat on top of the boulder and stared at the stars while listening to his pathetic story left an imprint in his heart
โ "let's meet on the battlefield one day. let's be on the same side, fight on the same side, and win as one!"

was there a lifetime waiting for us, in a world where i was yours?
you first saw him when you were walking back home to your village after a round at the night market, selling your handwoven mats and cloths. he was drenched in blood and you saw the exact moment he threw your dead father's body to the ground.
you were stricken with shock and fear, but you remained rooted in place, eyes searching for your mother. he sensed your presence, so he turned around to take a good look at you, taken aback when he saw your hunched form and the cloth you use to cover your mouth.
you didn't mind him, going forward in a frantic hunt for your mother who was nowhere to be seen. in a rush, you tripped over a dead body, making you fall face flat to the ground.
you had a hard time regaining balance until you feel a hand grip your haori, raising you into the air as your feet lifted off the ground. you saw a pair of eyes that said "upper moon three" stare into yours.
"hey, are you blind or just dumb?" he asked with a rough voice to which you did not respond. you just stared at him without a word, waiting for him to put you down.
"is this another one of my hallucinations?" you thought to yourself, feeling your feet touch the cold ground again. you looked up at him and reached out a hand, which made him flinch and take a step back. you insisted and reached out another hand, this time quickly poking his left cheek.
"ah, so it isn't a hallucination" you muttered and continued to look for your mother. the demon was dumbfounded at your reaction, a little annoyed to be honest. you just saw him a kill a man with bare hands but you did not bat an eye and just continued looking for your mother.
he followed you, observing your movement and aura, as well as the way you carry yourself. it was obvious that you were ill and you have a weak body. an image of a woman flashed in his mind, but he shook it off, thinking of it as muzan's memories.
as you tripped on a tree branch for the nth time, he finally spoke to you again. "hey, the women in the village went up the mountain" he said in a low voice, leaning against a tree to gauge your reaction. you just looked at him and nodded, muttering a small "thanks" before going up the direction of the mountain.
he hurried to accompany you, just staying by your side. he felt you inch closer to him whenever the wind blew colder and whenever you heard an owl hoot or a wolf howl. he let you be, because it seemed like you would collapse at anytime.
arriving at the middle of the mountain, a few feet away from a temple, you turned to look at the man beside you. "thank you so much, upper moon three-san, i might've tripped endlessly if it weren't for you" you said and bowed down to him.
he didn't respond, just staring at you. feeling yourself shrink at his stare and unaware of what to do, you reached into your makeshift bag and took a blue haori out, handing it to him, which he took confusedly.
"it might start snowing tomorrow, keep yourself warm" you said and walked away from him, going to the temple where you could see the women in your village huddled up together.
before completely stepping into the temple, you turned to look at him, only to see a gust of wind and the empty forest you two walked in.
smell of rain through the window pane, and the sight of you. oh, you were a good dream
the next time you saw him was seven days later, when it was pouring down outside, so your mother insisted that you stay in while she takes care of your goods.
he appeared as soon as the sun began to set, sitting by your bed side and watching you stare at nothing as the raindrops assaulted your window. you looked at him after a few minutes.
"am i dying?" you asked him directly, which made him give you a scandalized look. you were so serious that it sounded as if you do not fear death, or as if you are always prepared for death to appear at your door and take you.
there was silence in the room for a few minutes. "well, i guess you only talk if you want, i'll talk instead" you said and took out your needle and thread, beginning to fix your ripped haori while listening to the thunder going on outside.
"i was born with a weak body, a very very weak one. the healers said that it was because my mother neglected her body during pregnancy. i was always sick ever since, never getting to live a normal life" you narrated, not bothering to look at the demon who stared at your nimble fingers while listening to your story.
"but i didn't believe them, i knew that the reason why my body is weak is because my father abused my mother a lot, he also cheated on her a lot of times. my uncle once saw him in the red district, and my mom has never been the same ever since" you continued, looking at the demon this time finally, gauging his expression. but when you saw nothing, you went back to sewing your haori.
the room went silent again, and when you finished sewing, you put back your tools and folded your haori. the demon cleared his throat, gaining your attention.
"why aren't you afraid of me? i massacred the men in your village" he spoke, eyes unwavering as it stared into yours. you chuckled and sat up, and you were surprised to feel him assist you to lean on your headboard.
"thank you. the man i saw you kill was my father, so thank you. he was the man who brought me to this world, but he was never really a father" you replied, fiddling with a little doll your mother gor you years ago. "as for why i am not afraid of you, well, i've had my fair share of creatures of the night" you said softly, reaching for a comb in your night stand, proceeding to comb through the strands of your hair.
"i've had a wesk body since birth. and there were a lot of moments where i had a foot through death's door. i'd see shinigamis, ghosts, jorogumos, and enenras. so a demon like you is no surprise for me. it was actually comforting, since i wasn't able to play with other children, they'd talk to me and entertain me. the last time i saw one was a few years ago though, but i'm still wary all the time, because no one knows when they'll come and take me. seeing creatures like you, i take it as a warning to be careful about my health and body" you explained slowly to him, making his eyes widen as he nodded slowly.
silence reigned the room once again, and you closed your eyes, the rain slowly coming to an end as the roar of the thunder came to a halt. the soft patter of the rain on your window lulling you to sleep.
when you woke up, the moon was high in the sky and the demon was still beside you. but this time, he had a bowl of congee in his hands, putting it on your night stand before standing up.
"get better soon. i'll be on my way now" he said and before he completely walked away, you held his wrist gently and weakly. he turned around, surprised at your bold gesture.
you reached into your drawer and took out a red haori this time. "it's cold out. you might catch a cold" you said and handed it to him, letting go of his wrist. he gave you a small smile and opened your door.
before disappearing, he said one last thing. "i'm akaza" you turned to look at him with a warm smile. nodding at him, you spoke in a soft voice.
"i'm miyuki. be safe, akaza" you said and took your congee as he went out of your sight.
you ignored the way the air felt colder when he was gone, you focused on finishing the congee that akaza made for you, smiling as the taste reminded you of something distant and far.
and akaza ignored the way your name sounded so familiar, the way you felt so close yet so far, and the way his name sounded so good coming from your lips.
is there a lifetime waiting for us? all this time i have been yours
he often pops up for evening visits since then, making sure that you were in a good shape and that your health was not doing too bad. he disappeared for a week after his last visit, and you wondered when you would see him again.
and along with those nights of visits and waitings, your feelings began to bloom for the man who made you feel alive again. who made you see colors once again in this monochromatic world.
he made you feel worthy of affection and care.
and you knew that feelings will eventually begin to bloom sometime, and you hoped that it wouldn't drive the man away.
the next time you met him was during the new year festival in the town. being the opportunist you are, you insisted on going out to market your woven mats, cloths, and haoris, not passing up on the crowd to sell these.
not even ten minutes into setting up your stall, you saw the red haired demon in the crowd of people making his way to you.
when he was in front of you, he placed a pouch in your palms. opening it, you saw it filled to the brim with gold coins. you looked up at him, about to return it.
"do not worry, my colleagues saw the haori you gave me, so they wanted me to purchase them one as well" he said and wrapped your stuff, taking it into his arms. he helped you stand up and dusted off your haori.
"where are we going?" you asked as he began to lead you through the crowd. you did not know how but it seemed like it wasn't so packed, you were able to move freely and you weren't squished by sweaty bodies of the people.
"to the bridge. we can see the fireworks there magnificently" he replied which made you smile, you've never seen fireworks before, but you do think that they are quite the view.
you followed him and soon, you two were on the bridge, hand in hand while waiting for the fireworks show. he turned to you, taking out a floral-designed handcomb, putting it into your hair that was styled into a bun.
you felt warm and fuzzy inside, you did not feel any butterflies, because you felt safe and at ease beside him, you felt safe with akaza.
the fireworks went off moments later and they captivated your eyes, gaining the entirety of your attention. you watched as the different colors exploded, leaving sparks in their wake. the sounds they made, made you felt giddy inside and the colors added to the joy your heart felt in that moment.
too engrossed in the firework show, you failed to notice the way akaza was staring at you. staring at you like you were the most beautiful thing he's ever seen. like you put all the stars in the night sky for him and him only. he watched as your glossy eyes reflected the fireworks, but you were much prettier than any scenery right now.
and when you looked at him with tears of joy in your eyes, something clicked in the two of you, eyes widening at the realization.
"hakuji?"
"koyuki?"
you asked simultaneously, tears escaping both of your eyes as you wasted no time in jumping into his arms, burying your face into his neck, not minding the stares of other people.
this was why his touch felt so familiar. why his eyes looked like the stars you admired on a distant memory. why his voice sounded like a soft lullaby. why his congee tasted so familiar. why everything about him felt so right and felt so much like home.
and this was why you were so intriguing, that he cannot seem to leave you alone. why your smile made him feel warm. why he can't stop from looking after you. why he felt that he needed to be beside you most of the time. why everything about you completed something that he was missing for years.
"my husband, hakuji. i've missed you" you sobbed harder and clung to his haori, not daring to let go.
"oh, koyuki, my love. i'm sorry it took me so long" he responded, pressing a kiss to your temple.
the two of you welcomed the new year as one, one heart and soul, sharing the suppressed love for each other all these years.
he was going to be your source of strength from now on, and you were going to be the one who will put him back on track.
you made a silent promise to be always beside him no matter what or where or when.
he made a silent promise to be always by your side, and that he'll no longer make the same mistakes he did.
and as you two were overjoyed by your reunion, neither of you noticed the demon lord lurking in the distance, shaking his head as his upper moon three got back his pathetic, weak and helpless human memories.
additional a/n: i'm letting this be an open-ended scenario, so it is up to you to decide if akaza and reader gets their happy ending or if muzan steps in to break their bond. also, i used "lifetime" by ben&ben as an outline for the story. as always, likes and reblogs are very appreciated! love lots <3
