Kamaboko Squad w/ a Same Personality Reader
Synopsis: Headcanons for the main trio - Tanjiro, Zenitsu, Inosuke - with a reader who acts like them
A/N: So while Tumblr wonât notify people about my stuff, Iâll be doing scenarios I guess??? Also, I wanted to try my hand at branching out to other characters so of course, Iâll be starting with some light Kamaboko stuff
âTanjiro
Mommy and daddy (or maybe Mommy x2 haha)
Thatâs it
Thatâs your dynamic
But in all seriousness, you guys are basically the parents of the Demon Slayer Corps (second only to the Ubayishiki couple lol)
Youâd parent the Pillars, too, if theyâd sit still long enoughÂ
The first time you guys meet youâre helping out in the Butterfly Estate and he came in battered really badly (maybe after the Rui incident)
You try to parent him immediately, of course
At first, something was bothering him a bit, but he couldnât put his finger on it. Was it that you were really pretty? He didnât know
And then he realized you were really nice. Like not even Shinobu and Aoi were that sweet.Â
And heâs actually caught off-guard because??? No??? Stop that??? Thatâs his job??? But also please continue???Â
(he hasnât had his parents in a couple of years and he got whiplashed to feel motherly love again but shhh we ainât getting into that)Â
What made him completely drawn to you was how you liked Nezuko right off the bat
No judgment whatsoever
Just immediately mama bird mode
âOh, sheâs a demon?â
* Tanjiro is panicking because what if you overreact *
âY-yeah, but-â
âYou poor thing. Youâve gone through a lot, huh? Donât worry, weâll protect you, okay? But I guess you donât need us when you have a really dependable brother protecting you already.â
* cue Tanjiroâs heart going doki-doki *
âMmph!â Nezuko has accepted you as a big sisterÂ
Welcome to the Kamado family congrats
âT-Thanks! But I think sheâs been protecting me more. Sheâs really strong, after all.âÂ
âNonsense! I mean I bet sheâs really strong, but you should give yourself more credit, Tanjiro-kun. You even stood against the Pillars for her.â
Well that just confirmed that youâre the best person in Tanjiroâs book (second only to Nezuko, of course)
Youâre like the pair who constantly hype up your friends
HEAD PATS ABOUND (YOU GET A HEADPAT. EVERYONE GETS A HEADPAT)
Oh but youâre not all smiles, though
If Tanjiro beats people up or headbutts them into submission, your words are like a whip
No Mercy Modeâ˘Â
You just straight dig into someone, especially if theyâre being very stubborn or rude
The Kamaboko Squad have been on the receiving end of your lectures once
And they all unanimously agree: never againÂ
You and Tanjiro sort of become one anotherâs support systems
You can only be the support system of so many others before you start needing your own
It was nice to be dotted on every once in a while
Also, no one knows, but when youâre put into a mission together, you two are a little more childish
Of course, youâre still a bit parent-ish then because Nezuko is with you guys
But at least you can forget lifeâs horrors for a little bit and be the kids you never got to be
âĄZenitsu
First of all, yâall are a mess
Like everyone wonders how youâre still alive
They also think you shouldnât be put in the same mission
Because, you know, yâall are (cowards) scaredy-cats
But Oyakata-sama figured out itâs best to let you guys go together
You were still Demon Slayers after all
It was difficult. Like really difficult. Not the mission - just you two
Yâall didnât want to go
âH-he-hey, how about we take a break to-tonight?â
âHa..haha⌠y-yeah youâre right. Theyâll be fine for one more night, r-r-right?â
Of course, you guys still go (because you felt bad)
âI-Iâll go if you do. D-deal?â
âO-okay! Ju-Just donât leave me, got it?â
You both are shaking like crazy
You have to take turns pushing one another to get moving
When Zenitsu (faints) falls asleep and he starts fighting really amazing, youâre stupefied
Bro was holding out on you wtf?!
Youâre still shaking like a leaf but if Zenitsu was going to fight then so were you
Zenitsu later wakes up to you crying, your sword in hand, and the demon gone
He, of course, assumes itâs you who defeated the demon
â(F/N)-CHAN IâM SO GLAD YOUâRE WITH ME THANK YOU-â
âBut Zenitsu-kun, you-â
â-I LOVE YOU PLEASE DONâT EVER oofâ
You basically tackle him to get him to shut up
Yâall are a crying mess
He doesnât believe it when you try to tell him that he defeated the demon, so you let it go (for now)
You end up being close friends since youâre always on the same wavelength
Youâre basically the same person after all
God help Tanjiro when heâs put in a mission with you two
He basically has to babysit two whiny children
God help you and Zenitsu if youâre alone with Inosuke
He brings Zenitsu along as a punching bag and you go with them because Zenitsu literally cries at your feet to have moral support
One time, Inosuke used you both as bait
But he got mad when Zenitsu ended up taking the demon down
Now he just leaves you two if you keep whining and crying
All that aside, you guys get each other
So you talk about your insecurities without fear of being judged
Feeling like youâre not enough
Feeling like youâre the worst of the worst of the Demons Slayers
âBut I donât want to be a burden to anyone anymore.â
âR-Right? I want to help people. S-so, uh, letâs promise to be better!â
âYouâre right, (F/N)-chan! Weâll both be better!â
You guys keep saying that, but you still try to skip the next mission
đInosuke
Yâall are loud as all hell
People straight up leave the room when the two of you enter
You legit found each other because you were both yelling
âHow DARE someone be louder than me?â
And it all just went downhill from thereÂ
You guys are always trying to out-compete one another
Stealth missions are almost impossible with how loud the two of you are
âOi, (Wrong Version of Your Name)! Bet you canât find the demon before I do!â
You say his name wrong, too, just to piss him off
âShut up, Imotsute! I bet I can make them cry before I kill them.â
âWhat?! No, you canât. I bet Iâll-â
You still get the job done, of course
But no one really wants to go with you two
Not when youâre bickering the whole way
Also, youâre pretty reckless and almost no one was down to look after two idiots
Of course, Tanjiro and Zenitsu can stand you enough to go on missions
Zenitsu doesnât really have a choice because Tanjjiro is coming along
Also yâall drag him to your misadventures against his will to be a proper âjudgeâ to your competitions
Tanjiro comes along to make sure yâall donât die
Youâre oblivious af, too
Especially when it comes to affection
You constantly fight over praise from Tanjiro
Tanjiro: âThat was amazing! Good job!âÂ
âHear that? He said I was amazing!â
âThe hell that was meant for you. He said that for me!â
But once yâall understand appreciation and compliments
You guys are trading those with one another, mostly just to try it out
But also because Tanjiro:
âHave you guys tried to have a competition on who can compliment the other better?âÂ
âBet Iâll win! Hey, Bakasuke, you, uh, fight good.â
âHAHA! You admitted Iâm good!â
âIâm still BETTER though!âÂ
Pretty soon youâre complementing each other in the battlefield
Which hella confused people who trained with you
âHell yeah! Fuck âem up, (F/N)!â
âThanks, Inosuke! You better not fall behind. Wreck âem good, too!â
âYou know I will!â
You went from trash-talking each other to trashing on everyone else (mostly demons)
You still have competitions of course. No one backs out of those
You guys occasionally learn about life together, too
âInosuke, look! What the hell is that? Itâs gigantic!â
âLooks like a monster to me. Come on - letâs beat it up. Bet we can take it down no matter how big it is!â
âThatâs a steam engine train, you dumbasses.â (Zenitsu)
Life is loud two times more but itâs never been this fun before
