#papa Hashira are trying

[colourstreakgryffin]

Hi! I'm the same person who wrote the request for all the hashira, since you can't do all the hashira do you think you could do iguro, tengen and rengoku? Thank you so much :)

M’kay! I’ve done a child Dokusha before but guess I’ll do it again! For @totallynotsweetheartsbelloved! Here it is and I hope it’s somewhat like what you want!

Iguro Obanai

Obanai understands fully why you’re afraid of men and why you cower at the sight of him. Most men are vile, dangerous monsters from what he’s seen but he doesn’t want to hurt you and likes the look of you

Obanai develops a precise strategy to try get around your fear. He gives you gifts everyday, little gifts as Kaburamaru slithers into your sight, before he leaves. This way your developing mind tells you that he isn’t a threat

Obanai is relived and joyous when you finally willingly show yourself to him and go up to him. He makes no subtle movements, staying dead still to let you examine him until you proclaim you trust him

Obanai is very soft, harmless and defensive over you post-trust building. He knows just because you like him doesn’t mean, you like every man so he needs to keep you safe. He shields you from the psychotic ones and continues to gift you random cute accessories each day

Uzui Tengen

Yeah. That makes sense, Tengen can fully grasp why you’re afraid of all men, including him. He would have been the same if he didn’t have this career, yet, he wants to help you and give you a home so he gets to work

Tengen thinks the best thing he can do to try build trust is have his wives talk to you as comfort before revealing himself. You are fine around women so if polite, sweet women introduce him, it may tell you that he is a trustworthy being and overtime, it actually does

Tengen has to keep his eccentric excitement and relief hidden with you when you walk over to him yourself. His wives did a excellent job at painting him as a good person, he reaches for your head and asks for permission to pay

Tengen is like a playful protective dad post-trust building. He keeps only openly harmful men away from you and gives you whatever you want, he does spoil you rotten but how else can he heal your broken heart without showing you luxury

Rengoku Kyojuro

Kyojuro feels immense shame and anger at his own sex. You’re afraid of men because they kept hurting you over and over, and he wants to do everything he can to fix that, make it that you’re not afraid of men so you don’t have to suffer

Kyojuro can’t stop all the fear but he can limit it with him. He immediately devises a plan to try win your trust, himself doesn’t talk to you but his little brother Senjuro tries, instead. It’s a bit more successful but each conversation with Senjuro convinces both Rengokus aren’t out to hurt you

Kyojuro’s relief and pride overflows his body when you, with Senjuro, go up to hug him. He can’t bring himself to move at all as he is worried that you’ll run away if he makes a single flinch. Like a helpless infant animal, he is so careful with how he moves

Kyojuro is the most affectionate and doting of the three here. He wants to express his care to you fully, no smoke and mirrors, so your little brain knows he is just here to love and protect you. He avoids the dangerous men in public altogether and lets you talk to women only

I apologise about the one coloured manga icon. Im running out of Obanai icons really fast and it make me sad!

The Hashira And how I think they will act as parents (PT 1?)

Rengoku/ Giyuu/ Sanemi/ x GN Reader (modern au)

-------------------------~°★★★°~------------------------

Synopsis: Basically what the title says, this is just a little brain rot, may or may not be trash. Just me talking about how I think they would be as parents, how many kids they would want, etc

Authors note: This was kinda hard because I've never written nor read any works of Giyuu so he might not be written too well :')

Note: NOT PROOF READ

-------------------------~°★★★°~------------------------

Rengoku🔥 (⁠ﾉ⁠◕⁠ヮ⁠◕⁠)⁠ﾉ⁠*⁠.⁠✧

🧡 I see him wanting many children, not too many of course but quite a few! Maybe two like him and his brother, Senjuro. Or maybe even three or four, five if you will let him!

🧡 He wants to be a better father to his children than what his dad turned out to be after his mom passed away. Has nearly sworn off drinking when his first child was born because he didn't want to risk anything , poor thing :(

🧡 However you guys plan on having children doesn't really matter,he doesn't care of they aren't biologically his or not, he will love them!!

🧡 I see him having more sons than daughters, he wants to raise them up right to become good, decent men! And if he has a daughter he will teach his son's to protect her, even though he knows she will be more than capable to take care of herself. If they want to be demon slayers that's even better!

🧡 He tries his absolute best not to be too loud when he is holding his first baby, you have never seen him whisper the way he did when he held his first born.

🧡 Loves hearing his children play! And if he isn't busy he will join in and play along! Usually their games consist of Rengoku chasing them. Maybe he is a demon and they are demon slayers trying to fight him off, it's an adorable sight!

🧡 If he sees you playing with his children he will just sit back and watch for a little. Seeing his love playing with his children brings him so much warmth in his heart

🧡 You could say it sets his heart ablaze (insert laugh track)

🧡 He has a little bit of trouble saying no to his little kiddos. But he knows where to draw the line (some what atleast)

🧡Will randomly send you pictures of him and the kids (he does it shirtless when they're babies. Says they need skin to skin contact). Usually consists of both of them smiling, or watching TV or reading a book or Rengoku nibbling their cheeks.

🧡" Sweetheart! Look at our little sun flower! He's so focussed on the story book you got! And look! Whenever we get to the page talking about parents, he starts to laugh! *Chuckle* it seems he loves his parent as much as I do. Like father like son— huh?"

🧡 It's canon that Rengoku is half deaf and that is why he speaks so loudly, so I imagine his kids definitely gained a habit of yelling naturally when talking like their dad.

🧡Prefers to be called 'Papa' by his kids. I'm not sure why I just see it.

🧡His genes are strong. STRONG. All your kids (if biological) look exactly like him. Hair, eyes, smile and all. He finds it hilarious and will always mock you about it.

🧡Is there to EVERY game or concert, and if the school needs a chaperone he's your guy! Mom's love him, teachers love him, kids love him, even dad's love him. Who wouldn't?

🧡 As much as I praise him, like everyone he isn't perfect. Like I said, he has trouble saying no. But I also imagine that as much as he tries not to be like his dad, is how much he wants you to be like his mom, because he remembers her as such an amazing mother. So there is a bit of comparing but don't worry, he loves you for you!

🧡 Another thing about him being half deaf: hes off like a light when he's asleep. Baby is crying? Sucks to suck because 60 percent of the time he will sleep through it. But when he hears he will be the first one to check on your little one.

🧡Rengoku definitely will feel very hurt the first time his kid gets embarrassed of him. Like when they go through that "YOURE EMBARRASSING ME DAD!!" phase. Like, he will get so insecure and will feel like they don't love him anymore

🧡 "Sweetheart, do I talk too loud when I'm around their friends? Or do I make weird jokes? I thought saying "rizz" was cool??" Is what he will ask In the dead of night, and you will have to comfort him

🧡I imagine that Rengoku would love taking you and his kids camping and will make it a yearly tradition, even though it ends up a catastrophe every year.

🧡Over all a 9/10, amazing dad, had his flaws but honestly who doesn't?

Giyuu 🌊 (⁠・⁠–⁠・⁠;⁠)⁠ゞ

🫐 He is okay with any amount of children you're comfortable with. He'd preferably want not too many, but also more than one, so two is a good number

🫐 Poor thing, the first time you told him you were pregnant he was completely emotionless for like two minutes, just staring at the ground. You were so scared but before you could speak he took your hand tightly and started sobbing. He was so happy he was gonna be the father of your baby :(

🫐 And if you told him you wanted to adopt he'd agree, showing support when you made the decision. But the moment he sees the child you're gonna adopt he feels tears stream down his face.

🫐 When he holds your baby for the first time, no matter how many babies you have he will never be use to holding them for the first time. He will be so gentle, whispering to them. He looks a little awkward but it's okay he's trying.

🫐 Faints the first time he sees a diaper. Why does it look like that? Why does it smell like that?! How do you put it on?! He was the youngest so he had no clue how to do this, but he'd learn for you and your baby.

🫐 "Darling! Darling! Please take the baby now!! He— he needs to be changed please!"

🫐"Giyuu I am at work what do you want me to do?!" -you guys when being new parents probably

🫐He's a very quick learner though so you won't have to worry. Soon he's working with the baby without breaking a sweat! You could even say he's a natural

🫐 He still can't handle things like puke and poops though. That's for sure, unfortunately.

🫐 When your kid is older he will definitely be at all the games, shows, recitals, whatever. But he isn't gonna be cheering loudly, he honestly justs blends into the crowd. But the moment your bundle of joy gets of stage he is congratulating them profusely.

🫐 Takes so many pictures of you and your baby. Has so many pictures, and sends it to all of his friend's (so like 3 people)

🫐 Doesn't embarrass your kids often, hes too rserved. But if a child even talks wrong to his baby, he will not hesitate to go up to them and give them a stern talking to, which may be a little embarrassing.

🫐If your kid likes to sing— He WILL sing along and take videos. But God forbid you take a video of him singing, he will chase you for your phone. He's a terrible singer, but he will do anything for your baby.

🫐 Will respect his kids boundaries. If they don't wanna hug in public, sure..he was the same at some point. He will feel a little hurt and go to you for reassuring, but he knows it's just a teenage thing.

🫐 Once tried to sound cool Infront of his kids friends but ended up looking kinda lame. TERRIBLE DAD JOKES AHEAD!!

🫐Tried making a dad joke with his kids friends, all of them stayed silent, so did he. The table was silent until one of them decided to change the subject. Giyuu has never known peace since.

🫐 Is a very light sleeper, some say he doesn't sleep so if his baby cries, he is the first to go and check on them.

🫐 He makes sure not to sound to negative about himself around his kids. He doesn't want them to end up with a mindset like his.

🫐 Do kids love him? Do parents love him? Do teachers love him? Nyeeehhhh. Quite frankly they forget he exists. He doesn't stand out, but atleast that means he doesn't do anything wrong.

🫐he has some flaws in his parenting unfortunately. You'd expect him to be stern, responsible parent but honestly he will let his kids get away with anything to 'help his chances of them liking him'.

🫐 Also something that isn't entirely his fault is that he is unintentionally emotionally distant as his kids get older. Like, he won't know how to comfort that well. But he will try his best. Nothing but the best for his kids.

🫐 Overall 8.5/10. Great dad, not extraordinary but still pretty amazing

---------------------------~°★★★°~---------------------------

Sanemi 🍃(⁠ノ⁠ಠ⁠益⁠ಠ⁠)⁠ノ

🌱 The moment you announce that you're pregnant he is crying and becoming a little frantic. The most stressed out of the three despite his usual nonchalant demeanour.

🌱 He is making sure that you are taken care of, making sure everything is ready for the pregnancy months before

🌱If you guys are adopting he is alot less frantic but still very on edge. Making sure the bedroom is ready. Making sure everything is baby proofed.

🌱 But the moment the baby enters your lives it's like all that stress melts away in the blink of an eye. When he takes the baby into his arms and holds it against his open chest he is whispering sweet nothings into the kids ear.

🌱 Like Giyuu, he can't handle poop or vomit. Especially vomit. The first time your baby threw up on him was on his chest, and unfortunately since he keeps his chest own it slid down to his stomach

🌱 He shrieked. Genuinely shrieked.

🌱 "HOLY SHI— SHHHH....." he is trying his best not to swear Infront of your kid. He doesn't want to be remembered by your baby as an angry man.he can't. He refuses to let that happen.

🌱 You know he is stressed. Very very stressed. He doesn't want to be like his dad, his abusive father that he could only remember beating him and his siblings. He wants to be better, he needs to be better. But this worry leads to him having many sleepless nights where you would comfort him, telling him that he will never be his father.

🌱 When your kid gets older he will definitely take part in any little games they want to play. And he gets a kick out of it when he's the villain, because trust me when I say he is a phenomenal villain for his kids

🌱 Speaking of "kids", he wants more than one, definitely. Atleast three, but if that's too much for you he won't mind at all! He is a Girl Dad™ , nothing will convince me otherwise.

🌱 If he has a kid that looks exactly like him then he will be very careful. His baby is the most pretty, handsome thing in the whole universe, so how can he nitpick his appearance when he knows he has the eyes, nose and hair of his baby?

🌱 Lets his kid trace his scars, wether it be with their fingers or with markers. It gives him a sense of purpose.

🌱 Will he be a chaperone? Hell no. He hates any kid that isn't his. Will he host birthday parties? Hell yes, if it's his kids. But don't expect him to make small talk with parents.

🌱 If his kid shows romantic interest in Giyuus child he will actually combust. He doesn't want to be overbearing but if Giyuus 'spawn' goes near his angel he wil be throwing hands (with Giyuu).

🌱 Speaking of which, when your kid has a crush he will try not to be mad and sad at the same time

🌱 "Oh? Someone has caught the eye of daddy's angel? Well that's... Nice. Who is this kid? Is he nice? What's his name? What does he say? Do you know his parents? You know daddy will always love you the most"

🌱 Gets (very) defensive of his kids. If he's at a parent teacher meeting and the teacher dares to say something like "your child is too (this)" or your child is too (that)" he will get very upset. But he knows when he's child is truly the problem and will sternly check them.

🌱 Takes pictures of your kid doing the dumbest things in the dumbest angles. Have you seen that one pic of a guy standing on a babies shoulders captioned "on baby"? That is what hed send.

🌱 "Hey, babe. Look at our little mochi. Our baby is just the cutest thing alive😊❤️" and it's a picture of your baby from that one angle from the top of its head making it look dumb.

🌱 I imagine Sanemi has a sweet tooth, meaning he has a stash of sweets somewhere and of course he will share with his babies! But only one or two, anymore and he'll start to get a bit cranky.

🌱 He gives his kids punishments like the naughty corner 😭 and will make them stay there for 10 minutes before taking them to their room and calmly telling them where they went wrong.

🌱goes it his kids games/events and cheers LOUDLY. Almost rivals Rengoku. He is yelling, cheering, even swearing but each time it gets to that level he is kicked out.

🌱 Sanemi has quite a few flaws to his parenting. He has a bit of a temper, and although he keeps it in check it's hard to do so when he just came back from work. He will apologize many many times if he gets too upset

🌱 overall 8.5/ 10. He's a good parent, and he tries his best

Thanks for reading. Reblogs are appreciated. MIGHT make a part two with Tengen, Iguro and Gyomei

Giyuu adopting a 3 year old clingy child reader and the pillars reaction to them just popping out of his Haori

✿✼:*ﾟ:.｡..｡.:*･ﾟﾟ･**･ﾟﾟ･*:.｡..｡.:*ﾟ:*:✼✿　　

You hated being away from Giyuu And he hated being away from you

"Papa can I come." Your word were muffled has you clung to his leg as he tried to get ready.

"You can if you behave." He said while trying to pry you off of him. He could never say no to you even if he wanted to.

He managed to get you and himself ready barely making it before the meeting started.

Kagaya wasn't there yet but everyone else was. You've meet kagaya when giyuu adopted you. You called him grandpa.

Giyuu held you in a way that you weren't visible unless he moved his haori.

"Papa are we there yet?" You asked getting impatient and heating up.

"Almost"

---

He sat down in his usual spot next to tengen.

He sat criss cross with you in the space in between still covered by his haori.

"Giyuu are you alright you look a bit... Tired." The love hashira hesitantly said.

"I'm fine it's just" you popped your head out "I'm not used to being a parent."

Mitsuri instantly fell in love.

"Aww their so adorable. I didn't know you had a wife." She said while taking you from his lap and hugging you.

"I don't their adopted." Giyuu replied bring the water pillar to tears.

"What a kind soul."

Everyone's eyes we're on you as were being held by mitsuri, but you didn't like the attention.

You wiggled out of her arms and wobbled back to Giyuu lap.

"Ah giyuu how could you hide them from us." Shinobu teased but Giyuu didn't care he was to busy thinking about how you chose to come back to him even though you had everyones attention.

You are the best thing to happen to Giyuu.

Hello! can you do a scenario where giyu is already promised to y/n by kagaya in an betrothed announcement in one of their hashira meetings, but every other hashira is trying to either convince force or kidnapped the reader into marrying them? This is due to y/n having the ability to heal others and kagaya wants more healers since no one has ever heard of such a power and the amount of slayers being killed. So in order to create more offsprings with this ability he sets up a betrothed that you and giyu agreed to. But the other hashira are jealous and want in on y/n’s whole future in the matter.

Healer’s Dilemma w/ Fem Reader | Yandere Demon Slayer

Kagaya wouldn’t forcefully marry you, even if that’s what someone in his position would do 

You born without his curse illness and with some miraculous ability to heal 

He’d rather not force you to hide your gift when you can help his other children or the world for that matter

But he knows how desirable you might be

Not only to Muzan as a link to Kagaya but to many who would intend to do exactly what you’d both hate most

Kagaya, your dearest Papa cares deeply for you

And he fights for your freedom 

Even if it leads you to find a different kind of love with someone else

“Papa I wish to marry Giyuu Tomioka, the Water Hashira.”

“...This is your decision my daughter?”

“Yes, Papa. I want to marry him more than anything!”

“I could never fight your earnesty…then I give my blessing.”

He knows about the others obsessions 

he doesn’t need to see it when he can feel it

Giyuu mentions the leave he’ll be taking at the next meeting

“Ah how unfortunate for (Y/n) to be married to a wet sack like Tomioka-san.”

“Tch sounds to me like ya knocked her up, to get that ring.”

“Sanemi!”

“Please everyone. Do not disrespect (Y/n)-sama.”

“S-sorry Tomioka.”

“...”

“Hah, but if that…requirement hasn’t been met then…if another did it’d surely nullify any other petty engagement…Right?”

“...”

“...”

“If any of you try anything I will decapitate you as I do demons. Don’t. Try. It.”

“Whoa so scary, Tomioka-san! Too bad no one was listening.”

It’ll be a collective effort to protect your engagement

It’d be even more interesting when the hashira soon realize just how determined you are to have your freedom

“My Papa let me choose. He promises to let me be free. I will not have any of you get in my way!”

[beddybites]

Anymore thoughts on the baby gyomei au? Such a cute baby :(( Specifically how Kagaya acts with him? Or how he acts with any of the baby Aus. He just loves his children :(

anon im so sorry this took forever i was trying to put everyrhing to words… yes i have so many thoughts about gyomei!!

gyomei in the tiny 21 trio au [ #tiny 21 trio au ]

- father slash genuine

- he’s distant at first but the longer they’re little and the more they struggle he pitches in. his anxiety with being around children slowly disappears and suddenly hes got an extreme case of baby fever

- if the babies are all upset they are taken to gyomei and gyomei Always cheers them right up

- it gets to a point where the babies regularly ask for gyomei, though they refer to him as papa. insert them wailing and babbling begging to see their papa because its been a couple days and they miss him

- if the others cannot give the babies their papa, they get their big brothers instead (genya/tanjiro/muichiro or rengoku)

- gyomei is constantly in tears whenever they’re in baby mode around him

- because obanai squeaks and mewls like a kitten, gyomei refers to him as his “baby cat” … obanai clings onto him and can usually be seen snuggled up to his collarbone

- sanemi is a little terror until it comes to gyomei. he respects gyomei too much

- gyomei sleeps next to the crib. always. he hears the smallest sound and hes shooting up to make sure they’re okay

baby gyomei au [ #baby gyomei au ]

- his memories are all in tact and hes familiar with whats going on

- hes very cooperative and easy. he knows he’s in good hands so he abides by everything and tries to make taking care of him as simple as possible while sort of treating this as a “vacation”

- kagaya is alarmed and worried at first, because oh god the strongest hashira is now a little younger than a year… but he falls victim to the charm of baby gyomei

- gyomei is super sensitive and gentle. he goes “uhhmm…” a lot when he’s thinking, and likes to pet at his own head to try and get his bangs out of his eyes, since he’s not used to the longer hair

- very sensitive to loud sounds. half the time he starts bawling is because he was startled by something/someone

- muichiro and genya regularly fight over who gets to babysit

- muichiro almost always wins

- gyomei will just sit there listening to their banter and remind himself hes on vacation and only get involved if it actually gets serious (it never does)

- he’s a little embarrassed abt the whole situation but everyones really nice about it. nobody teases him (because its Gyomei) and everyone’s super respectful and always makes sure he’s doing okay

- muichiro gets upset whenever gyomei is taken from him

- gyomeo gets upset whenever he is taken from muichiro

- gyomeis favorite toy is a plush calico kitty that muichiro gifted him. he calls it “mew mew” (he calls muichiro ‘mew mew’ too)

- tengen is very excited about being the eldest and coos and coddles the little guy. gyomei is a little exasperated but he’s just happy tengen’s happy

- he has nightmares a lot, so he never sleeps alone

attaching my favorite baby gyomei doodle ever i like it a lot… look at him. fun fact his bangs are similar to muichiro’s. i like their family relationship a lot

[mrstsugikuni]

Wait!! Ur having a baby?!!$!3?2;4 omg congratulations!!!!!!!!!!,, maybe when you have time (no rush at all!!!) There could be some pregnant y/n headcanons for either the upper moons or the hashiras??? Like how they handle their y/n pregnant 🥺🥺🥺🥺

Yes I am 🫶 I am 15 weeks pregnant and I'm having a boy. Also thank you very much 🥰 I'm debating on whether to post the ultrasound photos or not 💪

And I absolutely LOVE 🫶💞💖 this request! So let's get started, I decided to do the top 3 upper moons first since they are my absolute favorite 🫶 and then I'll do the rest of the upper moons and then the hashira 💖

Kokushibo 🫶

He would be very very gentle with you as if you were a wine glass.

He'd have to stop himself sometimes from rubbing your belly because he knew and saw the little baby in there and it was the smallest and sweetest thing ever.

He would give your stomach lots and lots of kisses and would talk to the baby on a daily basis like it was his duty to talk to the small thing.

His eye are on you like a hawk, he wants you to be as safe as possible and he wants to be there if you ever need him or be able to catch you if you fall.

He understands you're very emotional at the moment because your hormones are going wild due to growing a new living thing inside of you and you have lots of mood swings so he's always there to let you cry or rant about something.

He loves seeing you rub your belly and talking to the baby yourself he thinks it's very sweet and can't help but to look in awe. 🫶

Douma 🧚‍♀️

Would act a little strange around you but nonetheless he would always talk to the baby he would mostly tell the baby stories of his life as well pretty much a "God" 😮‍💨

Would always bug you about when the baby was gonna be born and that he just couldn't wait to hold it.

Asks for help on how to be a good father figure for the baby.

Is always rubbing your belly he never holds himself back if he wants to say hello or rub his child he will do so and will sometimes even leave sweet little kisses.

You can see he's trying to get better with the whole emotions thing because he truly wants to be there emotionally for his baby.

Loves giving you hugs from behind and resting his hands on your baby bump and leaving kisses on your cheeks or forehead.

Tries to be there for you when your emotions get crazy but doesn't exactly know but to do so he just listens and holds you.

Akaza 💪

Protective papa for short

Is constantly checking in on you and the baby to make sure you're both alright.

Overthinks sometimes when he's on a mission but knows you can take care of yourself and you'll be ok, but gives you so many hugs and gives your tummy more kisses then ever.

Enjoys spending time with you and enjoys cuddles more than he ever has cause now he gets to hold you and his baby.

He tends to press his forehead to your tummy as if your baby was doing it back.

He's extremely gentle with you and helps you get around the house if you need it cause he knows it can get difficult sometimes.

Let's you vent to him all the time while you sit in his lap as he holds you listening to every little detail running his fingers through your hair in a soothing way and let's you vent until you slowly pass out in his arms and he carries you to bed letting you rest.

Ok so I'm sorry there are more head canons for akaza BUT he is just seems like the sweetest out of all of them and just easy to write with 🥺🫶

[i-cant-sing]

hi! clarification- this isn't a request to write or anything, i just had an idea and wanted to hear your opinion on it

i know you haven't touched the demon slayer scene in a while, but considering uzui's whole nightmare house thing and tanjiro's act of I Do Not See It, do you think that y/n would actually run to another hashira as a last resort?

honestly if yes, i'm betting its giyuu. man is a platonic yandere but would not stand for shit and is probably one of the least insane (although that means. very little in the grand scheme of things). idk i just have the idea in my head of giyuu smuggling y/n into his estate when she needs a break, and going papa wolf whenever uzui fucking breathes in her vicinity, deep-seated insecurities or not. he may not win, necessarily, but dammit will he try.

(can you tell i have a bias-)

No cause I 10000% agree with you. With Tanjirou constantly ignoring your story about being fucking abused physically and psychologically by Uzui+wives, and not paying attention to Nezuko being distressed over your ptsd state, and EVEN looking away when Uzui and the wives are constantly trying to create opportunities to corner you and being a little to touchy with you (and you're flinching away), someone else has to step up and help. And I have 2 people in mind for that.

First, is ofc Giyuu, cause why wouldn't he??? His moral compass is clear as day and he doesn't even need to be a yandere for him to absolutely shred everyone to pieces just to protect you. He can see the fear in your eyes, he can practically feel the hopelessness and anxiety you're suffering through. I think he may even try to convince Tanjiro to see that you're actually telling the truth, but he's not going to break his back to make him believe it. No, he doesn't exactly need him to protect you. Again, I see Giyuu becoming a platonic yandere, maybe more of a brother than as a father figure, and while he's... emotionally stunted, he's going wayyyy out of his comfort zone to console you. Expect a lot of head pats and deep words to assure you. He's a great listener, if it helps. ALSO, I can also see that if Uzui+wives come with other Hashiras to fight Giyuu for you, then Giyuu doesn't exactly have any qualms about joining forces with demons to protect you. Like I just know that if reader vouches for him to papa Muzan and the 12 moons, they would (hesitantly) accept Giyuu and you. After all, he has been the only human so far who's been kind to you.

Another option that I think would step tf up for reader is Sanemi, as a romantic yandere. Because this man, he's got love on the brain and he's fucking KILLING ANYONE WHO TRIES TAKINGBL YOU AWAY FROM HIM. Fr fr, he will actually fight all the hashiras and 12 moons for you. Will he win? No one knows for sure because like I said, he's absolutely batshit crazy when he's in love. Like one peck on the cheek from you is enough fuel for him to obliterate everyone with in 12 miles. Imagine what he's willing to do if he sees you waking up screaming and crying from the nightmares you have of Uzui.

Pairing: The Forger Family!

Genre: Fluff

Synopsis: Hollow's Eve approaches in Ostonia. For the Forgers to look normal, they must go to the Pumpkin Patch!

WC: <1K

Tags: @pixelcafe-network, @interstellar-inn.

Thank you @blackfire2013 for beta reading and correcting the errors.

This was written for @forest-hashira for the Autumn Leaves event.

The leaves changed their colours in Ostonia.The hues of yellow, orange, and red were present throughout the city. The days were getting shorter and cooler. Loid Forger/Twilight’s mission is to maintain appearances for Operation Strix. Observing the decorations for Hollow’s Eve, he thought it would be practical to participate in the celebrations. In his words, “for the mission”. 

Loid came home one evening a week before Hollow’s Eve. Anya, Yor, and Bond were waiting for him in the living room.

“Welcome home, Loid! How was work?” Yor asked with a cheerful demeanour as she walked up to greet him at the door. 

“We’re going to the Pumpkin Patch tomorrow. I noticed that all the families were decorating and thought we should participate as well.” Loid said.

Loid’s eyes became narrow as he went into Twilight mode and began his calculated thoughts, “We must maintain all appearances and participate in these celebrations for the sake of the mission. It would look suspicious if we were the only family not partaking in the events. Pumpkins are a great way to get the celebrations started.” 

Anya approaches her father and suddenly stares intently at him to try to use her telepathic abilities. She was aware of the Hollow’s Eve from the conversations that were being had at school with Becky and the rest of her classmates. She understood from a child’s perspective that there’s pumpkins, people dress-up, and it’s doing scary things came with the celebrations. 

“Papa, we need to get lots of pumpkins!”, Anya shouted

“Then it’s settled, we’ll get some pumpkins tomorrow and we will go out on Hollow’s Eve for the Candy”, Loid announces to the Forgers. 

It’s all for the mission at the end of the day.

That Saturday afternoon was sunny, but there was a cool breeze. The leaves were on the ground. The Forgers arrive at the pumpkin patch and Anya runs to try to find the best pumpkins to bring home.

“Papa! We got to pick the biggest one!” shouts Anya from a distance.

“Not that big. We still need to carry it back.” Loid said sternly. 

“Borf”, Bond says. 

“Well, how about this, Loid? We can get 3 different pumpkins and we can all carve them in our way!” Yor expresses with a smile. The sun shines on her as she happily blushes as she looks at Loid.

Loid blushes as he gazes at Yor, and proceeds to share a warm smile with her. “That sounds like a great idea, Yor. Where would I be without you?” 

This interaction causes Yor to blush, but her smile remains genuine. 

“Papa! Come! I found a pumpkin!” Anya shouts. 

“Borf!” 

“That looks like a great pumpkin Anya. Great job!”, Loid proceeds to pat Anya on her head. 

“Oh wow, Anya! That looks like a wonderful pumpkin. I can help you carve it, how does that sound?”

“Okay!” Anya says excitedly looking at her. 

The rest of the afternoon, the Forgers proceeded to look for their pumpkins to carve at home. Loid made an active choice to pick some small pumpkins to further decorate around their apartment.

“We can draw on them and it would look like we are a normal family”, his thoughts rummaged as Twilight. 

“Oh Loid, I love these smaller pumpkins. Should we make something with them?” Yor asked cheerfully.

“Uh, mama? I don’t think you should cook the pumpkins”,  Anya interjected.

“Huh?! I’m not that bad at cooking!”, Yor responded

As the sun began to set, the Forgers made their way home. Arriving home, Yor prepared hot chocolate and coffee as they all prepared to decorate their pumpkins. Newspapers were placed on the table and carving tools were placed neatly. Keeping her promise, Yor did help Anya with carving. Unfortunately, Yor is a little too good with a blade and quickly carved the pumpkin. 

Anya, Loid, and Bond just stared in awe at how quickly Mrs. Forger could carve a pumpkin. 

“Uh, it’s not what you think…I just got really good when we were living on our own”, Yor said shaking her head and hands. 

The pumpkins were carved in a manner that resembled fun and spooky. Twilight admired their hard work, but knew that this was all to keep appearances. A genuine smile presented itself embracing the warmth of being with his pretend family. 

“For the mission”.

As Anya listened on Loid’s thoughts, she thought this would be a perfect opportunity to ask him about the concept of Trick-or-Treating. 

“Papa! We need to go on an ooting for Hollow’s Eve. We must get all the candy that evening and I have to wear a costume!” Anya shouts

“Oh, that sounds like a wonderful idea, Miss Anya!” Yor interjects out loud. 

“Anya? Would you like to dress up as a witch for Hollow’s Eve?” Loid asked his daughter, drowning his thoughts as the most famous spy in Westalis. 

“Okay!” Anya says happily, “Let’s continue decorating, papa!” 

For this evening, they are a united family, despite that it is for appearances at the end of the day. The warm feelings are very real and they remain.

[silverynight]

Oh man that one kakushi must’ve exaggerated real negatively on Tanjiro’s first meeting the Hashiras to the young impressionable pups:

Pup: “Um mister, how did momma meet all of our papas?”

That one jealous kakushi who was supposed to babysit them: “Your poor mama was trying to look for a cure for your Auntie Nezuko after she got turned into a demon and your uncles, aunt and grandma got killed by a demon. One of your papas, Giyuu, was about to kill your transformed Auntie but your mama begged him not to, promising to look for a cure.

However your other papas found out about your mama’s situation years later. They threatened to kill Auntie Nezuko if your mama didn’t marry them soon. Sanemi actually stabbed Auntie many times to show your mama what happens if he didn’t listen to them. And so he listened to them no matter what from now on.

Even though the war is over, your mama was still scared of that the Pillars would still hurt Auntie if he didn’t obey their every order too.“

All the pups screech and cry loudly: “What!?”

“So that means mama is really unhappy on the inside!?”

“I hate them so much!”

“How could they hurt them like that!? They are no better than those ugly scary demons!”

After their parents come back…

Pup 1 leaps onto Tanjiro crying hysterically, “Mama! Our papas are bad guys like the demons!”

Tanjiro is bewildered by their bizarre behavior, “Eh? What on earth are you talking about sweetie?”

Pup 2: “*sniffs* Even though Auntie got cured, did our papas still hurt you two right?”

Pup 3: “Did they force you to get married so they didn’t kill Auntie!?”

Tanjiro, “Huh? No no no! That was a long time ago! And they never said anything like that!”

The Hashiras are also confused by this new attitude, who tf told their kids that?

Eventually everyone calms down and that jealous kakushi is promptly fired from the Corps but not being left with loads of injuries from the pups and everyone in the estate.

The jealous kakushi who wanted Tanjirou to divorce the Pillars so they could comfort him and be with him.

They were lucky they got kicked out and are still alive after that.

Tanjirou assures his beloved pups that their sires make him very happy and he loves them so much.

Tanjiro Kamado agere? No pressure, love your writing!!

Of course! Thank you for the request ^^ I hope you like it!

Tanjiro AgeRe Headcanons

Tanjiro is a flip!

-Tanjiro's regression age is 0-3! He a lil guy!

-Tanjiro is a flip with no lean!

-Tanjiro's primary caregiver(s) are Zenitsu and formerly Kie Kamado! Shinobu is his pediatrician!

-Tanjiro rarely gets to regress due to the high demand of the Slayer Corps, Zenitsu went to Shinobu who then went to the master and asked for a day or two off for Tanjiro so he could regress for a little, the master was happy to oblige.

-Tanjiro is a very well behaved kiddo, a very clingy baby though, he's almost always clinging onto Zenitsu and/or Nezuko.

-Tanjiro is a padded kiddo, all the stress and the injuries sustained in all the fighting made his bladder weaken. Shinobu made some decorated Diaper pins for him so he wasn't as embarrassed.

-Inosuke is a surprisingly amazing babysitter! Tanjiro is always well taken care of and often a little a lot spoiled. Inosuke absolutely loves babysitting! He always offers if given the chance. Inosuke loves taking his little underling on supervised walks through the forset, Tanjiro and Inosuke will pick up anything they think looks cool/pretty—dw Inosuke won't let Tanjiro grab anything that could hurt him—and after the walk, they'll happily show off all the pretty things they found to Zenitsu, Nezuko, Shinobu, anyone who has the ability to be shown! Tanjiro will pick specific items with the intention to gift them to specific people!

-One time, Muzan found Tanjiro while he was little. Thankfully Muzan isn't heartless and lead the little guy back to were he came from, disappearing before he was even noticed. Muzan doesn't allow any demon to attack anyone when regressed or their caregiver(s). Even the King of Demons as standards!

-Tanjiro's pacifier is green and pink! He picked it because the pink was the same shade as Nezuko's kimono!

-Tanjiro has been babysat by every Hashira at least once, yes even Obanai and Sanemi. Tanjiro calls them his uncles and Aunties! (Yes Gyomei cried when lil Tanjiro first called him uncle Mei-Mei)

-Tanjiro has limited speech, often using nicknames or poor attempts at peoples names, he's really trying though! People just have hard names!

-Tanjiro has one stuffed fox he takes literally everywhere. It's a baby toy Tanjuro made him. Lil guy is a papa's boy. Tanjiro absolutely refuses to sleep alone. He can and will cry until he passes out if left alone. Zenitsu once had to leave for an emergency during one of Tanjiro's naps, the poor thing started crying when he woke up and his Papa was gone. Lil man thought Zenitsu didn't love him anymore! (I just made myself sad) Tanjiro got a ton of cuddles that night, Obanai even let Tanjiro play with Kaburamaru that night! (Obi is wrapped around Tanjiro's finger. All the Hashira are.)

-Tanjiro's primary littles are Muichirou and Senjuro!

-Tanjiro loves spoiling his kiddos! He has a sticker board set up for his littles. Each day they're good, they get a sticker, if they get seven stickers in a row, they get a new toy!

-Tanjiro is an amazing bedtime storyteller! He can make up stories on the spot, or he can add a unique flare to classics! Tanjiro's kiddos love bedtime for this reason!

Hello may I request a part 2 of the papa Hercules and daughter Mitsuri? This time where Mitsuri introduces Obanai as her lover to reader and Hercules.

-Your daughter told you first that she had found the man she wanted to spend the rest of her life with, as you had asked her to long ago, as you needed to prepare Hercules ahead of time.

-Hercules was very protective of his daughter, especially after the couple of failed marriage interviews, they were still finding pieces of that one man who insulted her, saying only a beast would want her.

-You met Obanai first, and you could see he was a guarded man, acting a bit bristly with you, but he was able to see that you were a lot like Mitsuri, instantly welcoming him with a warm smile and within the one meal you shared together, making food for the three of you, Obanai liked you and you liked him, finding him a nice young man.

-Mitsuri loved it that you loved and approved of the man she loved, and the two of you agreed to ease Hercules into the idea, as you couldn’t help but worry what would happen if you just ripped the band aid off.

-Unfortunately, that’s what ended up happening, when Hercules arrived home as the three of you were discussing how to break the news to him and instantly he glared down at Obanai, “Who is this?”

-Instantly you and Mitsuri were in front of him, blocking Hercules from getting to her fellow Hashira, as Hercules would never do anything to the two of you, as Mitsuri spoke, “Papa- this is Obanai, he is the man I want to marry!”

-Obanai bowed, introducing himself and his snake, Kaburamaru, trying to be polite as he could tell that Hercules was insanely strong and he could sense the murder in Hercules’ eyes.

-Hercules was forced to be nice to Obanai, Mitsuri and you both pouting up at him, and Obanai could see that she was definitely your daughter.

-Hercules didn’t like being forced to go out and bond with Obanai, going fishing together, talking at the bare minimum until Obanai spoke, “Thank you for trusting me with your daughter. I know I’m not worthy of her, but I don’t want to see her upset and tell her no.”

-After learning about Obanai’s past, learning that he felt similar to Hercules, as he regretted killing his previous wife and children in a fit of rage caused by another, the two actually bonded.

-You had to keep Hercules from adopting Obanai as your son, “Mitsuri wouldn’t be able to marry him if he’s our son!” Hercules just grinned at the three of you, teasing, “It’s a win-win!!”

-You let him deal with your crying daughter, trying to calm her down from his prank while Obanai helped you in the kitchen.

-You smiled gently at him, putting your hand on his head, “I’m glad Mitsuri found someone like you. I know you will make her happy.” He couldn’t help himself and hugged you, just for a moment or two which made you smile before the two of you carried out the snacks you had both prepared, seeing Mitsuri was still crying, comically, while Hercules was trying not to laugh, having fun teasing his daughter.

Sanemi and kanae’s kid anon

I feel it would be better for the story if kanae still died because not only will sanemi and shinobu (plus kanao,aoi,and the butterfly girls who i can’t remember their names) have to deal with the grief of kanae’s death but also have to take care of kanae’s kid plus having to tell the kid their mom is dead. On a more positive note how i feel sanemi,shinobu,kanao,aoi and the little girls interact with sanemi and kanae’s kid

Sanemi-very protective of his kid will punch anyone for laying a finger on them,tries to be strict but fails,makes some mistakes but he’s trying,if he is not busy killing demons he is spending time with his kid,hasn’t told anyone other than kanae’s family about his kid

Shinobu-babysits when sanemi is on missions,tries to squeeze as much time in with them as she can because of her plan to avenge kanae,teaches them basic education and medicine

Kanao-poor girl is still trying to figure out emotions and choices still she is very protective of them because she sees kanae in them,was the one to break the news of kanae’s death to them

Aoi-the strictest of them all but still supportive and loving,just seeing them brightens up her day,loves having them over because she can keep a eye on them

Butterfly girls-playmates,love showing them new things and having sleepovers

That hurts. But also, fair. If you wanna add more angst, we could have Douma try even harder to devour her because she recently gave birth.

It would make sense for the kid to spend a lot more time at the Butterfly Mansion, what with their dad and aunt being Hashira and regularly on missions. But Sanemi would almost definitely take time off when he can to actually be a father to the child he helped create.

I can see all of them(Sanemi, Shinobu, Aoi, Caterpillars/Sumi, Kiyo, and Naho) crying when they realize Kanae's baby is one of the few things left of her(only reason I don't include Kanao is because she wasn't able to cry until Shinobu's death, but she definitely mourned with all of the others). Sanemi hugging his probably months old child, promising them that Papa's going to take care of them as best he can, that he'll never be like his own father. Shinobu glaring into the distance, her resolve only strengthened by the fact that Douma deprived Kanae's baby of their mother. The younger Butterfly Mansion girls promising to help in any way they can.

And you know what? This could be a good opportunity for Sanemi to hate Tanjirou less. Still not gonna clear everything up, but it may smooth things over a little between them. Because Sanemi's last experience with a four year old was when he just began his teen years, and he had six breathing siblings. While he's been managing with raising his kid, he still has his struggles. The child ends up wandering off, as toddlers tend to do when they gain mobility, and Sanemi looks for them in a mild panic. Then he finds the child with none other than Kamado Tanjirou. At first, Sanemi lashes out, demanding to know what Tanjirou is doing(not trusting the guy carting around his demon sister), and the two take a minute to process. Tanjirou is wondering who the hell reproduced with the guy who stabbed his sister repeatedly. It's clear to both of them that the kid likes Tanjirou, so Sanemi begrudgingly lets Tanjirou babysit if he's available. And no one else who's capable is.

This AU has so much potential, angst and fluff.

Hellooo may I ask a headcanon of Muzan with a child reader, the reader has flower powers(meaning the reader can grow blue spider lilies) and when the hashiras knew about it, they decided to kidnap them? I wanna see what Muzan and the upper moons reaction would beeeee

◡̈⋆ʜᴇʟʟᴏ(●’◡’●)ﾉsorry for the wait

✿✼:*ﾟ:.｡..｡.:*･ﾟﾟ･**･ﾟﾟ･*:.｡..｡.:*ﾟ:*:✼✿　　

P1(current), P2, P3, P4, P5, P6

Blood demon art.

Muzan had assumed you didn't have one until one day you ran up to him with a blue spider lily.

"Papa. Papa! I made a flower. The flower you always talk about. I thought real hard and it popped out of the ground." You practically screamed at him jumping up and down. l He wouldn't be able to keep up with you if it wasn't for the flower in your hands.

He picked you up and examined the flower in your hands. He smiled, a smile that make you feel proud. There are very few times Muzan gives affection and right now is one of them.

You cherish this memory.

It's been a year since then and you've been helping your father making demons stronger.

Muzan had made a special room for you that looks like a flower field. Here you practiced your art or just hung out because it was peaceful. sometimes you wished to see an actual flower field but your father didn't want to risk it.

The demon slayers knew he had a child. Every attempt at taking you ending in failure.

"hey y/n I think you've made enough for today. You don't want to overexert yourself." Akaza came into your room, wary not to step on any flowers you made.

You turned to face him with a bouquet of blue spider lilies in your hand. "Okay I was just about to finish anyway. I wanna give these to father." You walked past him barely being able to hold up the flowers.

Akaza chuckled and took the flowers out of your hand. He took one out of the bundle and gave it to you for your 'hard work' as he said.

making it to your father (I'll leave it up to you where he is) Akaza kneeled and presented the flowers to your father.

"My dear y/n, you've done well." He patted you head. "Tomorrow is yours, do with it what you want." He dismissed you and Akaza.

"Akaza, Do you think that I can go outside tomorrow? Father said that the day was mine." You asked excitedly as you bounced around the demon.

"I don't think he will like that. No"

you already had your mind set though.

-----

sneaking out of the infinity castle was easy seeing as no one expected you to leave.

'Good, it's night time.'

Walking out of the abandoned village you wondered off into the forest not caring about the turns you took.

Walking for what felt like hours you catch a glimpse of purple flowers hanging on what seemed like a hotel. (Where tanjiro went with inosuke and zenitsu to heal)

Getting closer to the flowers you feel your lungs start to hurt. It developed into your vision getting blurry.

You tried to turn away but by then you body had enough. You passed out.

.

.

'Soft' was the first thing you thought when you gain consciousness.

You vision was now coming back into focus, looking around you saw that you were in a room with a small window at the top.

The sun was coming up.

Trying to scoot away from the deadly rays you notice the you are bound to the blanket wrapped around you.

You hands cuffed in front of you with chains tight around the blanket you were in. Like a straight jacket you couldn't move freely.

"What are we going to do with it?"

"Turn it in obviously we can't have muzan's child walking freely."

You heard voices that got louder as they approached you.

"Papa help please." You wimpered. You had no idea what could have happened to you.

*with Muzan*

Hearing your cry from deep in his mind he was enraged.

He assembled the upper moons.

"How on earth does my child get taken. Did any of you know where they were going or how they even get out?" He already knew the answer but he want them to say it.

"My apologies master. They asked to go outside but I never thought they would actually go." Akaza was sweating bullets just breathing in front of him right now. "I do whatever it takes to make it up to you."

"Then you, Akaza, will go get them. If even a hair on their head is out of place your punishment will be severe."

Giyuu would definitely let his kid play dress up. He join every tea party and would not care if the other hashira sees. He does it with my oc

That’s so cute!!! 😭💖 he would definitely play dress up wth his babies with no shame.

Some of the Hashiras (definitely Obanai and Nemi) try making fun of him and he just retorts back with “Do you have a problem with me spending time with my child? Because I love them?? 😐” and then they just go silent lmao bc they cant argue with that

But to add on to dress up!! Giyuu’s kid wants to go out in their costume bc they love it so much but they want to match with their papa and Giyuu goes out in costume with them. Holding his child’s hand both dressed up in a silly lil costume 🤧💖

@itorisen said (inbox):

❛❛ You're kinda tiny , ain't you ? ❜❜ Narajiro leans down a bit , chuckling softly. ❛❛ Where's the big , scary Pharaoh Koto claimed ? ❜❜ That's when Koto slaps him on the back of the head , while climbing up him like a tree. ❛❛ Papa ! Quit bullying the guests ! ❜❜ Narajiro casually shrugs before pulling both Ozymandias & Koto into a hug , Koto letting out a noise of discomfort as the decorations adorning Ozymandias' body digs into her from the force of the hug. ❛❛ Welcome , as she calls you , Oz - mochi ! ❜❜ Koto puffs her cheeks out despite the discomfort it & Narajiro laughs loudly. ❛❛ Getting jealous that I am calling him by a name you gave him ? How cute ! ❜❜ That's when Narajiro's eyes suddenly take on a very frightening appearance. ❛❛ You've been treating my daughter respectfully , yes , Ozymandias ? ❜❜ [ for ozy's kny verse ! ]

     TINY… HE WANTED TO know why Koto's fathers had oni blood because next to a couple of individuals in the Hashira, those two men were giants. This kind of openness was so peculiar to him when it came to family, primarily because his father was quite a subdued individual and would have never been this…open towards another. Even among those he had been friends with back during his years as a general, he was never quite like this with them. Ozymandias opened his mouth to offer complaint, although he hardly had a chance to do so before being grabbed and crushed against the other's form. He grunts, he and Koto smooshed close to the point of discomfort. What kind of hug was this?! Was he trying to kill them?! ❝Do not...ugh…call me…that terrible nickname.❞

     He couldn't get her to not call him this as the name was stuck forever no matter his complaints, but surely, surely he could get Narajiro to at least call him by his name! And if that was too difficult, he would settle for 'Ozy'---! The question and the death glare he was given would have had most shaking more than likely, terrified that they might earn the ire of such a large man. For Ozymandias, though, that was a different story. He needed to define 'respectfully'. Because well -- that was in the eye of the beholder of something like that. ❝Possibly.❞ Maybe. Sorta. Define respectfully.

Demon Slayer • Father Figure Tengen x Muzan's Son Reader • Reader was a weak half demon that refused to help his father find the spider Lily. A traveler mistook the boy as human when he found Reader severally injured on the side of the road, he was took to the butterfly estate since it was close by in hopes for the boy to be healed. When the Hashiras found out he was a demon, he was prisoned. That is when Tengen and him got close, Reader seeing Tengen as a father that he always wanted. (take your time! Love you, friendo!)

Oh this is good

And ily too friendarino

I worked very hard on this ---

(Name) was only five in human years when his dad nearly killed him and abandoned him on the side of a road.

Scared and cold the little half demon clung helplessly to his blankie, the only thing he had of his mother.

His body was shutting down and he felt so alone.

Half demons healed at a much much slower rate, (name) accepting death.

"Oh poor thing, let's get you to a doctor."

Waking up in a warm bed felt weird, the small child clinging to the blankets helplessly as people checked on him "he's so cold..." One of them commented as they tried to warm the boy up.

See, the tricky thing about half demons is that they have a weird combination of both human and demon.

They can die of old age but they're aging process is incredibly slow.

They have blood magic but it's nowhere near as strong.

And unlike demons they can eat human food and go into sunlight, they're just very sensitive to the latter.

(Name) could honestly live a normal life if he chose too.

But his dad had other plans.

He wanted to raise (name) to be the perfect weapon despite his flaw of being a human.

He wanted (name) to find the spider lily.

(Name) didn't want to help his dad find some flower, the small child not understanding the gravity of why it was so important.

Muzan didn't like it.

One bit.

So Muzan did what he felt logical.

Kill and abandon the child and start again.

Though he didn't successfully kill (name) as the small boy was still alive.

Cracking his eyes open he saw a traditional room, gas lamp beside him as a woman with pretty purple eyes and a butterfly clip dabbed warm water on him to try and regulate his body temperature.

"Oh! You're awake, how are you feeling?" The lady asked and (name) was hesitant to answer as he looked down "I'm good, thank you miss..." His voice meek and soft as he refused to make eye contact with her.

He would face dire consequences if he did so.

"Where are your parents little one?"

"Mamas gone... Papa hates me"

"Why do you think that?"

"Wouldn't find a stupid lily so papa got rid of me..."

"....what kind of lily" the air in the room shifted as everyone stared at the child...his eyes....they looked like...his.

"Buu spider lily..."

"Take him to the dungeons" was all he heard before he was taken down to a cold cell...reminded him of where father would put him if he didn't behave.

Curled up he cried, realizing he didn't have his blankie made him even more upset.

Tengen walked down to the dungeons, requested by the others to figure out what the kid was up to and kind of interrogate him.

When tengen got to the demons cell he wasn't expecting practically a baby, sobbing away "thought you would have been older..." Tengen said catching the boys attention and Tengen watched him physically flinch and curl up more "I'm sorry..." The boy mumbled and repeated the phrase, genuinely scared of the man.

"Hey... I'm not gonna hurt you, I just have a few questions..."

(Name) stared at him with teary eyes but didn't say anything else.

"Pretty scary down here... Are you hungry?"

(Name) shook his head but his stomach said otherwise, a loud growl rang out and (name) cried a bit in worry.

"Hey... It's alright, we all get hungry" Tengen said softly and (name) fiddled with his little fingers "is there anything I can do to make feel better?"

(Name) was quiet for a moment before speaking "my blankie..." His little voice melted Tengens heart and the white haired man nodded "alright... I will be right back alright?"

"Promise?"

"I promise"

When tengen came upstairs be was livid.

They wanted him to interrogate a toddler!

He didn't care if that was Muzans child, all he saw was a scared abandoned toddler who needed someone to save him.

But first that kid needed food.

And his blankie.

He made a simple dish for the toddler, nothing crazy and grabbed his blanket and a small cup of tea to wash it down.

(Name) was surprised when the man came back with so much for him.

"Here you go, it's not a the fanciest but I like it" he said wrapping the boys blanket around his tiny shoulders "and this is some tea, it's cool enough to drink now"

"Have you ever had this?" Tengen asked the small child who shook his head "what have you had?"

"Nefer had food... Father made me eat pink squishy stuff and yucky red stuff... It always made me feel weird"

It didn't take a genius to realize what he talking about.

Flesh and blood.

The thing about half demons is they can eat flesh of humans and gain power like a demon but it doesn't taste good.

It tasted to (name) how raw flesh would to a human.

Since no one else ate human food around him, he didn't know much about it.

"Well I promise you this is really yummy"

Tengen held a chopstick to (name)s lips and the tot opened wide and looked pleasantly surprised at how yummy it tasted.

The two spent the next half hour like this, Tengen feeding the small boy who somehow ended up in his crossed lap and Tengen learned that this boy wasn't a threat at all.

He was just a little boy who desperately needed love.

And Tengen wanted to give him all of it.

"Let's go upstairs yeah?"

The others were horrified as he carried the little boy in his arms and spoke oh so softly to him.

"He's a demon!"

"He's a toddler who just had green tea for the first time and his mom's human, he's half"

"He still shares blood with that monster!"

"A monster he's terrified of, he's five...he doesn't understand what his dad is doing all he knows is he hurt him and never loved him"

The other hashira looked sceptical as Tengen continued "I will take full responsibility for him...just give him a chance before turning him away"

The others begrudgingly agreed and allowed him to keep the spawn.

The following days the others watched Tengen interact with the child, setting him up in a room and getting him a few toys, the little boy crying.

He had never been given a gift.

(Name) was practically his shadow, following him everywhere and holding onto his pant leg.

A week became a month and a month became six.

Tengens wives took the small boy in with open arms, doting and loving.

"Goodnight (name)..." Tengen said softly to the boy he had grown to love.

"Goodnight papa..."

Tengen wanted to cry right then and there, he had seen the boy as his own but never said anything as he didn't want to push the boy but now...

He was his dad now.

And he had never been happier.
