#In any case Tanjiro has a dlc quest to do after killing Muzan

[ratwithhands]

I dropped them on Insta, so here's some doodles from a goofy KNY AU I have in the works.

Long story short, Kokushibo ended up switching sides after a few years of working with Muzan and reconnected with Yoriichi and the rest of his human friends and family. Michikatsu spends his life helping Yoriichi teach slayers and generally do his best to repent for his wrongdoings. The morning after cremating Yoriichi, he discovers that just as his brother had supernatural abilities for a human being, Michi has traits beyond what a demon should be capable of. Since the sun isn't killing him fast enough (or at all really), he's decided to dedicate the rest of eternity to raise a swordsman to Yoriichi's capabilities with the hope that they will put him out of his misery.

His latest student is Tanjiro, who he hopes will be last under his wing. His job is mainly to teach him the fundamentals for a few styles, and escort him long enough to finish his own goals first. Until then, he's mostly the weird uncle tagging along.

extra bonus details:

The haori Michi wears later in time is Yoriichi's, however due to the wear over 400 years, it's worn under a wide black haori so that it barely peeks out as a lining

Mikatsu's extended demon slayer mark is the result of hiding his extra eyes under his skin. The seam bleeds into the already present mark so he's opted to roll with it since red hides it better

The sword he carries is still his own, however he wraps the end with a white cotton strip to hide the eyes on the handle

He still has Yoriichi's flute, along with his tsuba, and several other small trinkets. He has a lot of these, so the extras he can't carry everywhere are kept in a sealed box buried where his own grave is supposed to be. He does check it regularly

Tanjiro's introduction to the demon slayer corps was through Michi, similarly his fundamentals and starter breathing styles were taught by him too

I'll see about posting more later. If school wasn't taking so much of my time, maybe I'd have a full sketch done. See you in the meantime!
