[married-to-google-translater]

Hi!!! I hope I'm not bothering you! Please ignore this if your not comfortable completing this!

Please message if you need more clarification.

Request: Could I have Muzan and Tanjiro headcannons with a gn partner who can roast literally anyone? Their pretty good with insults and make people feel really stupid, an example would be: someone is making them pretty mad, and they say: "I would punch you but I'm against animal abuse."

Please stay well!! –sent by my main

Don't worry u don't bother me~ I am happy to write your request.

Tanjiro Kamado

Tanjiro met you on some mission.

He, Inosuke and Zenitsu would be sent to deal with the demon.

You were also a rookie member of the demon Slayer Corps who lived nearby and was supposed to guide them.

Let's say your and Inosuke's personalities collided within the first five minutes.

It would certainly not be an easy task.

Tanjiro would surely be really shocked.

He hadn't seen anyone talk like this before.

You are a person who would make even Demons cry.

And indeed you would.

Really...really...really many times.

Your record would be about five minutes.

Emotionally damage is the best attack.

But at the same time, you could also be really sweet.

Like you did with Nezuko.

Tanjiro wouldn't really get the idea of you.

He would try to act as a balancing force in conflict situations.

Usually you don't try to roast him.

You have a heart too, you're not a monster after all.

Muzan Kibutsuji

It had been centuries since you met Muzan.

He immediately noticed your strength hidden in your words.

You knew how to roast people before roasting was invented.

Muzan thought he could use this somehow.

That's why he asked if you want to turn into a demon.

You agreed.

Centuries later, you were still on close terms with Muzan.

Muzan would have a love hate relationship with you.

He wouldn't be sure what to think. In certain situations, your "talent" would amuse him.

Your cruelty through words would be attractive to him.

Gyokko is his favorite demon so what did you expect.

However, there were situations where your direct words did not fit.

Muzan assumed you could tell when he wasn't in a good mood.

You did...

Whether you care about it would be a different matter

You knew Muzan wouldn't get rid of you easily.

You had a really long history together and you had been useful to him many times.

Because of this, sometimes it was fun to balance on the border.

There must be some excitement in life.

Love hate relationship is real lol

First Loves » KNY headcannons

❧ starring: [ gn!reader ] + tanjiro, inosuke, zenitsu, genya (the bois) ❧ synopsis: just generally figuring out that what they're feeling is a first crush/relationship! ❧ a/n: valentines day man, it's got all the ideas going. and to include how these guys might react is just so cute! (side side note: writing for zenitsu made my heart completely explode)

Tanjiro Kamado »

the way he falls in love is very subtle, and at first he doesn't even realize his feelings

its just a fluttery warm feeling in his chest when your hands accidentally touch, or his soft thoughts when he sees you just being yourself

when it hits him, it hits him hardd

like makes him physically sick to think about it (sick with nerves suddenly)

won't look you in the eye, will jump about a foot back if you're too close, the works

but, i think he'd adjust well after that, because

i mean he's lucky to have fallen in love with you, of all people

why be afraid to show it?

he's very respectful, and sometimes eye contact becomes a little intimidating for him (he laughs it off)

his face is almost always red (and you can tell when he's super happy because the tips of his ears start burning)

tries to be as romantic as possible sometimes, sort of remembering the way his parents showed their love

his love language is definitely words of affirmation

Inosuke Hashibara »

does not know what a crush is, and at first can hardly comprehend the idea of a relationship until zenitsu and tanjiro explain it to him

has the urge to fight you all the time (he doesn't know why, but it's because he wants your attention)

would probably go to shinobu bc "he's sick"

literally him explaining that he's itchy all the time, shaky like he's going to collapse, and sweaty. "probably a fever" in his words.

"you're in love" doesn't explain much to him either when she points out the source of his "sickness" is you.

he still doesn't understand what he feels completely, but does see it through new eyes

like accepting the fact he wants to be around you more than anything

and make you happy (seeing you laugh because of him, just makes his heart flutter)

in a relationship, you'd be taking most of the first steps

like holding his hand or even hugging him

it's a slow process of him adjusting to the relationship

but it's 100% worth every bit

likes praise, and kinda tries hard to get your compliments (gets kind of mopey if its been a while)

kind of his weakness

probably gives you little wild flowers (and occasionally acorns)

Zenitsu Agatsuma »

its not his first crush, so he knows 100% that he's head over heels in love

he falls in love hard, and often. both a good thing and a bad thing

but this one feels different?

you're not like the others he's crushed on because he knows he can trust you with his affections

and that gets him nervous as hell

i think he'd have butterflies and a smile 24/7 (he'd just be so happy to be in the relationship of his dreams with someone so special)

old fashioned, and likes giving you tons of gifts and flowers (he probably thinks its his job to give you the world, and he'd try)

but to be honest, he'd probably need a ton of your attention and guidance

his past relationships taught him nothing but how selfish others could be (doesn't stop him from loving endlessly though so that's good :)

still hasn't had a first kiss, and loves holding your hand

would probably weep from joy if you said yes to his confession

really protective of you

Genya Shinazugawa »

probably swearing in his head and completely aware of his turning feelings towards you

to be honest, he's probably loved you since he first laid eyes on you

he just respected you too much to realize it

and now that he does. . . he's actually prone to avoiding you as much as possible(?)

he's the kind to daydream random scenarios (admiring from a distance)

of course this gets his ears and neck burning like crazy

is in denial for a long time about his feelings, until he comes to terms with it

he needs a little bit of direction and confirmation that you're actually interested in him (it might be the only way to get him to confess anything)

and being in a relationship is a difficult adjustment too

the reality of it all doesn't sink in for a while

like holding your hand or even kissing isn't just a thought anymore is. . . bizarre. to say the least

gets embarrassed easily and it makes him frustrated that its out of his control

just has to walk away sometimes to cool down

is a sucker for the little things and likes feeling like he can protect you

[imsosleepyofyourbull]

This is an impulsive draft of a scene I thought up based on @orange-artist‘s Time Travel AU of the Kamaboko Squad… if you read this, know that I love your art and that I genuinely can’t stop thinking about it. Please enjoy the hyper-fixation soup of words that I call my unedited writing!

“Kanata and Kiriya,” Kagaya gasped, his usually gentle and composed features overrun with surprise as he desperately hoped he had not misheard them. “How… how many of the children did you say survived this year’s Final Selection?”

“Of the thirty-three test takers, thirty-three have passed and will continue to serve the Demon Slayer Corps,” Kanata replied dutifully.

“Of those thirty-three,” Kiriya continued after, already anticipating their father’s next question. “Five were noted to be especially skilled.”

“The independent swordsman who developed his own breathing style, Hashibira Inosuke.”

“The independent swordsman who does not use a breathing style, Shinazugawa Genya.”

“The youngest student of the retired Rumbling Pillar Kuwajima Jigoro, Agatsuma Zenitsu.”

“The newest student of the retired Water Pillar Urokodaki Sakonji, Kamado Tanjiro.”

“And the only student of the current Insect Pillar Kocho Shinobu, Tsuyuri Kanao.”

Kiriya gave their father a moment to commit the different names to memory before concluding, “the remaining twenty-eight state one or more of these five had saved their lives at least once and stayed close by until they were healthy enough to survive the rest of the week. We saw each of them waiting at the edge of the forest for the rest of the stragglers before passing themselves. Additionally, the Kasugai Crows we sent on a final expedition of the forest afterward reported that only one or two of the demons were left alive.”

Kagaya had believed the Miracle Selection to be a once in a lifetime phenomena — marked by a lonely gravestone in their strange family’s shared cemetery and the memory of a peach colored fox wielding violent waters in defense of its peers.

Unimaginable, and unrepeatable.

He was right, but only because this Miracle Selection was nothing like the first. This one was intentional and decisive and everything that his family made of blood, bone, and steel had been waiting for. The beginning, or perhaps just the first visible omen, of a change in the very course of the world that Kagaya had been unable to foresee until it had already happened. Was it any coincidence that there were thirty-three survivors specifically? That, of those thirty-three, five of them in particular had saved the rest?

The Ubuyashiki were superstitious by nature; marrying their heirs to the daughters of priests and teaching their children to create rings of salt around their beds when they wanted some extra protection at night. The importance of the numbers three and five were not lost on him. With the three sacred treasures and the five directions (the five senses) marking their way, there was no question as to what he must do. Kanata and Kiriya know it too, or they would’ve sent a crow instead of making a personal report.

“Tell our most reliable kasugai to follow the five children you just mentioned,” he ordered Kanata, “they don’t have to be especially quiet… though I would appreciate it if they were undisruptive.”

He could not see her, but he knew that she gave him a solemn bow before turning to leave.

For Kiriya, “I need a missive to be sent to all of the currently active Pillars as well as the retired Rumbling and Water Pillars for a meeting at the northwestern estate three months from now.”

“Understood.”

The tide of change was fast approaching, and he knows that it will spell the end of this centuries long battle against the night. Kibutsuji Muzan will not live to see the next era — that, he promises.

(What he does not know just yet is that his chosen children have already sat on the horizon of a demon free world, and they know that they cannot afford to fail twice. Once was enough.)

[colourstreakgryffin]

Can you do Tanjiro x fem!reader where he accidentally hurts her? Like, he’s asleep and having a nightmare and reader is trying to wake him up and when he wakes up he punches her cause it was a nightmare about demons.

I hope this makes sense😭

Ommmmggg. Tanjiro will be so upset about that! I’m totally doing this, loves! Thank you!

Kamado Tanjiro- Truly Accidental

No… no… no. It was a accident. Tanjiro swears it! He wasn’t trying to put his hands on you! He was just having a truly vivid dream and he felt his body acting on it’s own. It made him swing at literally nothing, despite the fact his visions were merely fantasy

He truly woke up a familiar pained gasp and loud thud. His plum reds widened in shock and horror at the image before him, it tore his heart out and stomped all over it ten times fold. You, on your flat back and holding your cheek

No. He didn’t punch you, did he? Tanjiro is so panicked and concerned, his head screaming at him with such hateful comments, as he tries his best to crawl over to you to try fix the situation, his heart shattering at the way you flinch

He didn’t mean it… he was so sorry

“D-Dokusha… I’m so sorry… I-I… I didn’t mean to do that, I just—” Tanjiro whispered out in a plunge of disbelief and terror at his own subconscious actions. He woke up from such a horrific, hyperrealistic nightmare consisting of him throwing it down with a wave of rabid demons bare-fisted. He couldn’t believe he could take those monsters down without his katana but his fighting spirit and survival instincts kicked in to try defend himself

You, on the other hand, was sleeping peacefully and cuddled up to your lovely fiancé, Tanjiro when you felt his calloused hands grip your kimono a bit tighter, unintentionally stirring you awake as you scanned over his frowning expression and tighter clamped-shut eyes. He was asleep but imagining a not-so-pleasant situation in his unconscious headspace

In intense worry for your fiancé’s health, you begun to shake Tanjiro’s still frame with no response from him for almost a whole minute after whispering out his name repetitively and repetitive requests for him to wake himself up for far too long for your anxiety to handle. You needed to wake him up and comfort him over that obvious nightmare he was experiencing when the second his eyes shot open, his mighty fist swung at your face and flung you over the futon to the nearby wooden-pane floor. Both of you were really fear-struck and shocked at his actions

“Wait. Please, I-I swear I would never hurt you… I-I’m sorry, I love you. Come back…” Tanjiro whispers weakly at your horrified eyes glaring at him, tears welling up in his own glassy eyes as his brain tried its best to process exactly what happened. He couldn’t believe a single ounce of this situation and the fact it actually happened by his own fist. Why did he punch you when you weren’t a demon? How was that dream so realistic that it made him lash out at his beautiful spouse!

You sniffed softly at him, slowly raising up to sit and maintaining eye contact. Tanjiro was using everything he had to keep himself from crying as his guilt and shame piled up to an uncontrollable rate. How could he make it up to you when he was the one who caused you fear and pain? He would never forgive himself for this incident and he was very tempted to sleep in the kitchen or slice his own fingernails as punishment

He should be able to control himself. Hurting somebody important to him like Nezuko or Giyuu is a awful one thing, but hurting the one person he has developed such a powerful romantic love for such as you, it makes him feel like a worthless pile of shit. Rather it was a accident or not, he was ready to take the blame and accept you yelling at him… but you never did

You gently stroked his face to try comfort him, tears rolling over the soft skin of your hand as he went to protest at your kindness. He doesn’t deserve empathy after hurting you, you’re the victim. Why are you acting like he deserves forgiveness? You keep up a soft smile, further highlighting that nasty reddish mark on your cheek where his full-power fist landed and the mark he made caused his heart to stop beating for a second or two. Tanjiro kept his gaze on you, trying to process everything all at once even though, he just couldn’t keep himself composed anymore

“Dokusha… I don’t get it… I-I hurt you… I just punched you when you tried to wake me up… w-why are you—”

“Because I love you too, Kamado Tanjiro”

[thewritetofreespeech]

Since you do Demon Slayer requests, could I request Tanjirou, Giyuu, and Douma's s/o(s) petting their hair as they start to doze off on their lap?

Demon Slayer men (and 1 demon) + falling asleep in s/o's lap

Tanjiro Kamado

It was, for once, a peaceful night. The fireflies dancing around the garden of Butterfly Mansion, while Tanjirou enjoyed the sweet smell of jasmine in the air.

“What are you doing out here?” Tanjiro perked up when he heard [Y/N]’s voice behind him. Soft, but still able to be heard. “You’ll catch a cold.”

“Oh, I’m ok.” He insisted, with his usual comforting smile. “I was going to head in but….” He looked down at his lap where Nezuko was resting. In her petite form almost fully in his lap as she dozed.

[Y/N] chuckled. “I suppose you’re pinned then. I’ll join you.”

They sat down beside Tanjiro. Both their feet dangling off the edge of the porch as they looked out over the garden. “Hopefully she’ll get up soon. I don’t know what it is but ever time she lays on my lap she goes right to sleep.”

“She trusts you.” Tanjiro looked up and over to [Y/N] curiously. “Plus, I’m sure it’s comfortable. Haven’t you ever taken a nap in someone’s lap before?”

“Oh. No.” He replied. Nervously scratching his cheek. If he had it had been years. Perhaps with his mother, or father, when he was much younger and certainly not a big brother. “I think it would be pretty silly.”

“It’s not silly.” [Y/N] insisted.

They then got up and adjusted so that they were sitting on their ankles behind Tanjiro, and gently patted their lap. “Come on. Try it. This way you won’t bother Nezuko either.” Tanjiro blushed and gulped a little. It was a little embarrassing, being in a position like that. It was also embarrassing on how much he wanted to try it.

Carefully he leaned back until his back was flat against the wood and his head was in their lap. He suddenly realized that the roof over the porch had little butterflies and flowers carved into it. He’d never bothered to look up, so he never noticed. It was comforting, he thought.

Very quickly Tanjiro was asleep as well, dozing off with his sister. Nezuko eventually did wake up, rubbing her eyes with tiny fists, and noticed her brother was asleep. Her big eyes turned to [Y/N], who placed their finger over their mouth in a silent shush. The little demon didn’t say anything in response. She just got up, jumped off the porch with a quiet thud, and went to chase fireflies.

Giyuu Tomioka 

A big part of being a member of the Demon Slayer Corps was traveling. Demons and evil never rested, and the ones that caused the most havoc tended to wander. The corps went where they were needed. Which could be any area in Japan.

“Why don’t you get some rest?” [Y/N] asked rhetorically as they and Giyuu bounced along in the back of a wagon. Along with lots of travel came lots of unconventional ways of getting there. Not every mission had a luxury train to get them there.

Giyu grunted, but still sat up with his arms crossed. [Y/N] sighed.

“You’d feel better.” Giyu glanced over at them from the corner of his eye. “I know when you’re tired or upset Giyu. You can’t hide it from me.”

They had been together a long time. Originally partners before they became partners. The little ticks and subtle hints in Giyu’s mood that were often lost on others were an open book to them. One that he should know by now.

“I can't sleep on hay. Makes me itchy.”

[Y/N] smiled softly, then adjusted to make their lap open & free. “Rest here then. No hay or scratchy surfaces. I won’t tell anyone you took a nap on the way.”

Giyu didn’t say anything, but [Y/N] could tell their mind was reeling about it. Eventually, he submitted and laid his head down. “Thanks.”

“Don’t thank me just yet. After you get some sleep it’s my turn.”

There was the faintest hint of a smirk on Giyu’s lips before he eventually fell asleep. Rocked there by the wagon and warm, damp smell of hay around them.

Douma

A big sigh echoed across the room as Douma heaved it out, followed by a yawn. “I’m bored.” Being a cult leader was really rather boring. All he had to do was sit here and listen to people’s problems. And since he didn’t care what happened one way or the other, to the problem or his followers, then there was really no interest to be held in the situation. He just sat here, listening to someone play the shamisen, while people brought him their problems and offerings he wouldn’t eat.

“Where’s [Y/N]?” He asked. Examining one of the many mandarins brought to him as a present, and not having the stomach to even consider eating it, before he tossed it aside. “I haven’t seen them all day.”

“It’s only noon Douma-sama.” The demon growled. He didn’t ask for the time. “But, I will find them. They were helping with the new members earlier today, so they must still be doing that.”

“New people….” To a normal cult leader that would be a good thing, but to Douma it was just another headache.

Sure, more people to choose from when he was selecting his meals, but also more people to listen to. Maybe he should make some sort of decree that the Gods asked for their silent contemplation and meditation so he didn’t have to hear them whine anymore. Yeah, that would probably work.”

“Lord Douma-sama?” The demon perked up when he heard his name and saw [Y/N]. “You wanted to see me?”

“[Y/N]-chan!” He beamed brightly as he perked up in his seat with a big grin. “I did. I wanted to see you because I missed you!”

“I’m flattered Lord Douma-sama.”

The pink in their cheeks and the subtle smell of desire made Douma’s stomach tighten in hunger. But he doesn’t want to eat them. Yet.

Once and a while he would get a favorite. No particular rhyme or reason. He would just decide to keep one of the humans as a pet, more than an hors d'oeuvre. It usually worked out well, as humans were pretty stupid and susceptible to flattery, and he was a master manipulator.

“Come sit by me. I wanted to borrow you for a moment.” [Y/N], of course, instantly came to his side and sat down. The demon giggled a little before he dramatically laid down in their lap. “Ahhhh….that’s better.”

“Is this all you wanted of me, Lord Douma-sama?”

“For now.” He replied. Eyes closed, with a cat ate the canary grin on his face. “You don’t mind, do you?”

“Of course not.” They replied, without question. “I’m happy to be of any service that brings you comfort Lord Douma-sama.”

He can smell a wave of sickly-sweet perfume coming off [Y/N] that he’s come to realize is ‘love’. Douma has never felt it, but he has smelt it before. Bombarded with the scent from his followers. Clinging to those people left behind by their lovers as he devoured one and the other fled for safety. His last favorite had the same smell, but not for him. A ‘mother’s love’ and all that. Not that he believed any of it.

“This will make me happy for now. But if I think of anything else I’ll let you know.”

“Of course Lord Douma-sama.”

The demon yawned and started to doze. Still bored, but at least mildly entertained by his new pillow. He supposed he’d have to find a new favorite soon; since this one was becoming stale and dull. For now though, this was fine.

Domestic fluff with tanjiro x reader where they have kids :)?

Hey! Thank you for the request!! Sorry for the delay!!

Sunlit Moments

It was beauty warm and sunny day. You got up early before Tanjiro and the kids to cook breakfast. You could hear the gentle coos of your youngest, a baby girl who had just woken up on the baby monitor.

Tanjiro was already by her side, lifting her from the crib with practiced ease. He whispered soothing words, his voice a comforting melody that always seemed to calm her.

"Daddy's here," Tanjiro murmured, planting a tender kiss on her tiny head before walking into the kitchen. His eyes lit up when he saw you, and he gave you a warm, loving smile. "Good morning, love."

You smiled at him and gave him a soft loving kiss. “Good morning. Sit down. I just finished breakfast.” You said as you made everyone's plates. “Haruto! Breakfast!” You called out.

Just then the door to the back door opened. “Mommy, look!" Your eldest, a bright-eyed boy with his father's freckles and determination, came running into the kitchen, holding a small bouquet of wildflowers. "I picked these for you!"

You knelt down, accepting the flowers with a smile and a kiss on his forehead. "They're beautiful, thank you, sweetheart." You placed the flowers in a vase. “Go sit down. It's time for breakfast.”

Once breakfast was ready, the four of you sat down together, enjoying the simple yet precious moments of family life. Tanjiro fed your daughter small bites of food, his patience and gentleness evident in every movement. Your son eagerly recounted a story from his dreams, his animated gestures making you and Tanjiro laugh.

After breakfast, you all went outside to the garden. Tanjiro took the opportunity to train with your son, guiding him through basic forms and techniques. You sat nearby, cradling your daughter in your arms and watching with a content smile. The sound of laughter and the sight of Tanjiro's encouraging nods filled you with a deep sense of happiness.

As the sun climbed higher in the sky, Tanjiro took a break and joined you on the grass. He wrapped an arm around you, pulling you close. Your daughter reached out, her tiny fingers grasping at his haori.

"I love our family," Tanjiro said softly, his eyes shining with love and gratitude. "I couldn't ask for anything more."

You leaned into him, feeling the same overwhelming sense of love. "Me too. We're so lucky."

In that moment, surrounded by the laughter of your children and the warmth of Tanjiro's embrace, you knew that your heart had found its home. Together, you and Tanjiro had created a life filled with love, joy, and the promise of countless beautiful tomorrows.

-----------------------------------------------

tanjiro kamado

you try to brace yourself as you're thrown against a tree. it hurts, but you have to keep going. you think of the bright smile that always inspires you when you need it. the smile of your best friend. you take in a deep breath in, trying to control your total concentration, as you reflect on where you are at, and how you would rather be back at the butterfly mansion with your friends, who haven't finished healing yet.

you lift yourself up just in time to deflect the blood demon art of the spider sister, who almost captured you in her web ball. you fling yourself to the side, and when you jump up, prepared for the next attack, she's gone.

strange. you look around you at all of your surroundings, hoping that she won't pop out from behind the trees. your power, besides your breathing, is in your strength, so unfortunately, you lack any power of being able to sense where your opponent is by smell, audio, or some weird beasty sense thing that inosuke possesses.

you still and close your eyes, trying to focus on listening, when you hear something above you. something isn't right about this.

you are able to jump to the side just as the monster leaps where you were. this thing is massive, with a godawful spider face. not only is it creepy, but it scares you enough that you hide behind a tree, trying to think of a plan. that's when you remember tanjiro again.

last week, the two of you were eating breakfast at the butterfly mansion. you were sitting next to each other, chatting and occasionally laughing at inosuke devouring his onigiri. you turn to focus back on your conversation about tanjrio's "hinokami kagura", and how impressive it is.

"you truly are amazing, tanjiro! not even the hashira can perform two breathing techniques!" you gush, trying to imagine yourself doing the same. "you must feel so powerful!"

tanjiro scratches at his neck, trying to push down the raging blush that had formed on his face. "it's really not that impressive! I'm sure you could do the same if you really tried."

"oh, don't be ridiculous. i'm not near close enough to your level. and don't be modest either! just don't forget about me when you become a hashira," you say, with a little joke at the end.

tanjiro grabs your hands and stares at you a little too intensely. you feel a little startled. "don't say that about yourself! you are an incredible swordsman and i constantly want to be like you."

you blink, unsure what to make of the fervent compliments. you open your mouth, but before you can respond, he continues.

"you inspire me with your strength. you never give up and that is what's truly amazing!" you swear you can see little puffs of steam coming out of his ears.

"uh..."

"so don't underestimate yourself!"

you blink for a moment, trying to find your composure. and you don't know what else to do but laugh.

"well, alright then!" you give him a huge smile and hug him tight. "thank you, tanjiro," you whisper into his ear. he just hugged you tighter to his body. what you missed seeing was the very pointed look given to him by zenitsu.

you brace yourself and make a move from behind the tree, rushing at the creature who was looking for you in the opposite direction. activating your first breathing form, you aim at the giant's arm, hoping to buy some time while he is regenerating. but your sword doesn't cut through. instead, he flings you a couple meters back. you land harshly on the ground, and you wince when you feel your ribs crack. you take a deep breath in, desperately hoping for an idea to get you out of this mess.

the monster roars, destroying trees in his path as he searches for you. "LEAVE MY FAMILY ALONE."

some hell of a family, you think, as you roll out of the way to escape a tree from crushing you. you rush at the monster again, this time aiming for his neck with your sixth breathing form, but to no avail. your sword still doesn't go through.

you can see the monster's hand coming towards you. you're going to die. there's no way you can move out of the way without breaking your sword, and you won't be able to survive without it. think! you desperately rack your brain for ideas, but it's too late.

you close your eyes as the hand comes to you, but you never feel the impact. you quickly open your eyes to see a checkered haori blocking the monster's head.

"tanjiro!"

"y/n! i was so worried when we arrived and saw all of the bodies!" the hand shakes the two of you off, and tanjiro holds you close as you both fall to the ground. he's quick to jump to his feet, but you're still a little sore from your earlier exchanges with the tree. he gives you a charming smile as he helps you off the ground. "i'm so glad you are alright."

you jump up to give him a tight hug, trying to fight off the nerves of your near-death experience.

"gonpachiro! are you going to help me out or keep flirting?" you cough as he glances over at inosuke trying to saw his way through the monster's arm.

before you can react, he presses a quick kiss to your forehead before running to help. "stay alive, ok!" he yells, "i have to confess something after the battle!"

you allow yourself one bashful smile before lunging into the fight, helping your future bf and one weird boar.

inosuke hashibira

you gasp for air as you're being held down by the neck by the train's appendage. you try to break free, but your sword is just out of reach and the tentacle thing is just too slimy to really grab hold of it. with one hand, you try to free your neck, and with the other hand, you strain for your sword. the appendage lifts you a bit and slams you back down, making something in your arm snap. you try to scream, but nothing comes out. your vision starts getting a little blurry, and black starts creeping around the edges.

what should you do? before you can do anything, a big eye pops out and blinks at you.

when you open your eyes, you have to adjust, because it suddenly got very bright. you sit up off the ground, looking around for the train, but you don't see anything. you do recognize this dirt path you are on though.

you lift yourself up and start along the path until you come across... the butterfly mansion? something wasn't right. you were supposed to be helping tanjiro and inosuke with the train demon.

just then you heard a cackle coming from inside the building. how is inosuke here? you also heard a scream coming from the inside. you sprint to the sound, and throw the doors open to see your little sibling cowering behind your parents, who were in a protective stance and looking up at the ceiling. on the ceiling was inosuke, crawling around like a weirdo.

"mom? dad?" how were they here? their deaths were the reason you became a demon slayer in the first place. tears start pouring down your cheeks as you run towards your beloved family. you stay there, hugging them for what seems like hours. your parents were very confused, but accepted the affection nontheless. your sibling was giggling at how stupid you looked, but you could care less, because at least they were alive.

maybe this whole slayer thing was just a bad dream. BAM. you jerk your head to see inosuke had come down from the ceiling. how did you forget? so the slayer thing was not just a dream. so what the hell is happening?

inosuke walks up to you and grabs your hand. "come on, y/n! let's go train." he walks you outside and into the woods.

"inosuke, i think something is wrong. we were fighting a demon and then we ended up back here. do you know anything?" he steps back and lifts his mask up, letting it fall to the ground.

"what the hell are you talking about?" he starts towards you, backing you into a tree. you put your hands to his chest, looking into his eyes.

"this is not the time to fight right now! i'm being serious-" you are silenced when he puts his finger to your lips, cocks his head and looks at you.

"the fuck are you yappin' about? you know the training thing is just a ruse." he puts his hands on your side and squeezes, making you gasp. he lays his head into the crook of your neck and gives you a small little bite, in which you grab onto his shoulders in shock. "we do this all the time."

Y/N!

you push inosuke back and look around. you grab onto his shoulder and gently shake it.

"didn't you hear that?" he just snorts. "hear what?"

Y/N!

"there it is again! someone is calling my name!" inosuke shakes his head and pushes against you once more, arms circling your waist. he starts to leave kisses up your neck, which causes you to let out a little whine. this was a little dream of yours that you kept a secret so no one would find out about your little crush.

pause.

A DREAM! of course!

"i've got to get out of here." inosuke lifts his head up.

"what?"

"you don't understand. this is a dream! the real you needs me right now." you run around the woods, searching for the demon that put you to sleep. if you kill it, you might be able to get out. how else would you wake up?

you slow to a stop, realizing the demon isn't in the dream with you. dream inosuke pokes your back. "what are you doing?"

you turn to him, unsure of what you're about to do. you reach to his waist and grab one of his swords.

"i'm sorry." you whisper, terrified. you bring the sword up to your neck. what if you're wrong? what if there are repercussions from the dream in reality. what if you actually died?

you push your hand up again the blade, ready, when a hand grabs your wrist. you look up into his beautiful face, which looked miserable.

"don't you want to be with me?" you almost drop the sword from your neck. you raise your hand to dream inosuke's face.

"it's all i've ever wanted, since we met. that's why i have to do this. to be with the real you." you pull your wrist free and scream, and with a twist of the blade, everything goes dark.

you wake up and take a deep breath. you can feel the wind from the roof of the train, and you realize it worked. you look over to see the appendage that was holding you wither into dust on the ground.

"you done taking your little nap? we got a demon to kill!" you smile at the taunting voice coming from behind you. you turn and jump into his arms.

"h-hey!" you lift his mask to give him a quick kiss on the cheek.

"thank you for waking me up," you say, before running off to where tanjiro was calling your name. inosuke follows behind you, very glad the mask is covering the redness of his face.

zenitsu agatsuma

there is no way you are making it out of this one alive, unless you hear the drum again. there are two demons making their way to you in this moving house. you aren't skilled enough to taken on two demons by yourself. so you are holding out that the drum will beat again soon, so that the rooms will shift. the first demon crawls closer and lashes it's tongue at you. you swipe at it, and the tip falls off, spraying blood over your uniform. while the first demon sprawls backwards in pain, the second lunges at you, and just as you swing your sword at it's neck, the drum shifts the rooms around.

you fall through the air in this new room, but land on something solid. you look down to see zenitsu under you.

"oh my goodness!" you hug him tight, thankful to see his face instead of another demon. while you're too busy with your relief, he's focused on your legs on either side of his waist. pervert.

his euphoria ends quickly, however, when you hoist yourself up and introduce yourself to the kid he is with. shoichi, the little boy, is so relieved that another slayer joined them, so he didn't have to put up with zenitsu's tantrums by himself.

while he is introducing himself, zenitsu sits up and screams. you turn, shielding the boy behind you, when you spot the tongue demon making it's way toward the three of you.

you all run to the nearest room and while you hope for another drum, you know you won't be so lucky this time, so you focus your attention on the door, hoping to be able to ambush the demon when he enters the room.

"no, no, no, no, no. please wake up." you turn to see zenitsu passed out on the floor.

"shoichi, i need you to get him to the wall if you can." then you turn your attention to the approaching demon, whose tongue had already regenerated. the tongue lashes out at you once more, but faster this time. you knew you wouldn't have time to cut it off, so you settle for deflecting it.

but the force of his tongue was too strong, and you were thrown backwards, hitting the wall and roughly falling to the ground. you crawl back over to zenitsu and shoichi, praying the drum sounds again.

you go to stand up to face the demon again when a soft hand pushes you back. you look up to see zenitsu and are surprised. wasn't he just passed out?

you see him get into position and hear a faint, "thunder breathing, first form". you blink and the demon is dead.

zenitsu sways for a second before falling back to the ground. you rush over to make sure he's ok to discover he's... STILL ASLEEP?

he jerks awake and squeals when he see's the demon's body disintegrating. he latches onto your torso and shamelessly hides his face into your skin.

"y/n-chaaaaan, you saved me! thank you thank you thank you!"

you look over at shoichi who just shrugs. with a small laugh, you lean over and press a kiss to zenitsu's head.

"let's try to get out of here, yeah?"

"AHHH y/n-chaaaaaan! let's get married!"

a/n: SORRRRRY i am so tired and so i rushed zenitsu's, but i hope it's still good! i'll try to finish the part two tomorrow (with a special surprise drabble!)

[lanawrx]

Modern! Tanjiro Kamado with a Street Racer Partner

a/n: I love Initial D and KNY so bad, ugh.

⋆ ˚｡⋆୨୧˚⋆ ˚｡⋆୨୧˚⋆ ˚｡⋆୨୧˚⋆ ˚｡⋆୨୧˚⋆ ˚｡⋆୨୧˚⋆ ˚｡⋆୨୧˚⋆ ˚｡⋆୨୧˚⋆ ˚｡⋆୨୧˚⋆ ˚｡⋆୨୧˚⋆

Tanjiro was your biggest supporter, and it showed in every way. No matter how late it was, no matter how far the race, Tanjiro was always there, cheering you on with a smile that could light up the darkest night.

Every time you had a race, Tanjiro would drag Inosuke and Zenitsu along with him.

"Why do we always have to come to these races?!" Zenitsu would wail, clutching his head as the sound of engines roared in the background.

"Shut up, Monitsu!" Inosuke would bark back. "Racing is awesome! She's gonna destroy all of them!"

Tanjiro would show up early, always making sure you had everything you needed. He’d check the car, help you get settled, and give you one of those warm, confident smiles that made your heart race even more than the thought of the competition.

Right before each race began, he'd never fail to give you a good luck kiss or two, as a charm to make sure you'd be safe.

People from the crowd would wolf-whistle and cheer, causing the two of you to blush. Tanjiro would quickly scramble to the guardrails, joining his friends and trying to hide his red face with the darkness from the trees.

When the race started, you could always hear his voice above everyone else's, shouting your name, telling you to keep going, to give it your all. He had this unwavering belief in you, and it pushed you to do your best every single time.

After every race, the adrenaline still pumping through your veins, you'd return to the top of the pass, only to be greeted by Tanjiro's bright smile and the sound of his footsteps running toward you. He’d be practically glowing with pride, his eyes wide with admiration.

“You did it!” Tanjiro would say, pulling you into a tight hug. “I knew you could do it! You were incredible out there.”

You’d smile back, your heart swelling at his praise. No matter how tough the race had been, knowing Tanjiro believed in you made it all worthwhile. Inosuke would stomp over next, probably yelling something about how he knew you’d win because you were as tough as him, while Zenitsu trailed behind, looking relieved that the race was over.

When the adrenaline had faded and it was just you and Tanjiro under the stars, were some of the most precious. He’d take your hand, his fingers warm and gentle against yours, and he’d smile that soft, earnest smile that always made your heart skip a beat.

You didn't understand how you got so lucky to have a partner like Tanjiro. Handsome, kind, and utterly supportive of your hobbies.

Normally, guys would be scared off by your skills. Many times, you'd be dumped over their fears of having a chick who can race better than they ever could. You wondered if you should just quit racing altogether, maybe then you'd secure a longtime relationship.

That all changed when you met Tanjiro.

He was different from anyone you’d ever known. While others saw your passion for racing as intimidating or too much to handle, Tanjiro saw it as something beautiful, something that made you shine even brighter in his eyes. He wasn’t scared off by your skills—if anything, he was inspired by them.

You’d never forget the first time he watched you drive with your all. The way his eyes lit up as he watched you take the wheel, the admiration and pride written all over his face. He wasn’t just impressed by your talent; he was in awe of your determination, your drive, the way you never gave up even when the competition was fierce.

After that first race, he came up to you, his smile as bright as the moon above. “You’re amazing,” he’d said, and you could tell he meant every word. “I’ve never seen anything like it. You’re so strong, so talented—I’m really lucky to know you.”

You’d laughed, a little embarrassed by his praise, but his sincerity was undeniable.

And from that moment on, he never missed a race. No matter how late, no matter how far, Tanjiro was always there, cheering you on, believing in you when others doubted.

Under those stars, with his hand in yours, you felt an overwhelming sense of peace and gratitude. You had found someone who loved you, not despite your passion but because of it. Someone who saw your strength and was proud of it.

“You make me feel like I can do anything,” you whispered, looking up at him.

Tanjiro squeezed your hand, his eyes full of warmth. “That’s because you can,” he said softly. “And I’ll always be here, right by your side, cheering you on.”

In that moment, you knew you didn’t have to give up racing—or any part of yourself—to find love. With Tanjiro, you had everything you needed.

Tanjiro x socially awkward reader

Tanjiro Kamado (older)

Chances are the two of you met on one of his assignments.

It may take a while to get to know you.

Because you would be shy in the beginning.

You liked Tanjiro and didn't want to embarrass yourself.

But when you get to know each other, things change.

Tanjiro would be really supportive of you.

We have seen the landscape of his soul, we know that he is the purest boy ever.

Tanjiro would like to help you in any way possible.

He would be really understanding and listen to you.

Your social awkwardness wouldn't be a problem for him.

Golden boy loves you.

If you did something socially awkward, Tanjiro would just ignore it and not latch onto it.

He doesn't want the situation to be embarrassing.

Tanjiro knows that he would have to go on another mission sometime.

But he would try to find ways to help you even if he wasn't there.

He's not sure how yet.

But Tanjiro would surely come up with something.

AFTER SCHOOL !!

Kamado Trio x Afab - 3rd years (2)

SKIT: Hangouts after school are always untamed

———————————————————————

“Y/n!” Mr. Kyojuro gently stopped Y/n’s shoulder, she turned around. “Yes Mr. Kyojuro?” She asked, “Be sure to turn in that digital assignment by tonight.” He reminded in a joyful yet stern voice. She smiled, “I will.” Y/n walked down the hall and was met by Tanjiro who waved her down the hall, next to him were her other friends Inosuke and Zenitsu.

“Hey guys! You ready for that super scary movie tonight~!” Y/n emphases ‘super scary’ in a ghost accent. Tanjiro giggles and smiles as he nods, “Yeah!” They all agree, Inosuke was obviously a little more vibrant when speaking.

They all walked to the movie theaters that was closer to the school and bought 4 tickets from the lady in the plastic booth where she slid the tickets to them at the bottom of the silver desk.

After they got the tickets they had to check in with another woman who stamped their tickets and the security guard watched them skeptical, especially the kid with the unbuttoned school shirt. Inosuke always did that after school since he couldn’t in school.

“Kid, button that shirt. You can’t be dressed that way in here.” The security stopped them before they walked in the theater completely. Inosuke didn’t want trouble but grunted in anger and annoyance as he buttoned his shirt.

They were allowed in, they got a huge bucket of popcorn and 2 large sodas. One for the guys and one for Y/n herself. Oh and a few candy bars.

Ads passed the time before the instructions to turn off phones had played on the silver screen, then the movie started. The lights started to dim and Inosuke was already reaching fr his candy bar, which Zenitsu was holding as Tanjiro had the popcorn.

Y/n took a sip of her soft drink, Zenitsu flinched away from Inosuke as he hand almost touched his face. “Look where you’re reaching boar!” Zenitsu silently scolded Inosuke, who slapped his face pretty good as the sound kind of echoed through the dark room. Y/n spit out her drink through her nose and tried to really hold in her laugh. Tanjiro was in shock on how such a thing could happen.

Inosuke got his candy bar, “Shh!” Someone in the back hissed, Y/n grabbed a handful of popcorn, turned and threw it at them. Inosuke went a little overboard and threw a handfuls at the person, the popcorn was still enough for them to eat though.

Later in the movie the popcorn was finished and Tanjiro, Zenitsu, and Y/n ate their candy bars. Zenitsu screamed in fear a few times and cling onto Y/n who was just as equally as scared but tried to be brave. “Y/n I’m scared~!” Zenitsu quivered in absolute fear.

Y/n gripped his hand, “It’s ok Zenitsu me too..” She had pretended to be a little more brave than she actually was. Tanjiro made a few faces as some gory scenes came on screen, Zenitsu had to look away. Inosuke was into it, he watched without hesitation.

After the movie ended the dark lights turned on and we’re at a dim, they took their trash and empty cups out the theaters and walked down the hall to leave the dark room, throwing their trash at the end of the dim lit hall.

“Great movie right guys!?” Y/n again, tried to sound braver than she was watching the movie. “Yeah..great movie!” Zenitsu said in a shake, Tanjiro agreed and so did Inosuke. As they left the theater Y/n had realized the time and remembered what Mr. Kyojuro had said to her about her assignment.

“MY ASSIGNMENT!” Y/n shouted i fear as she ran out the theater and dashed home, confused as they were. Tanjiro, Inosuke, and Zenitsu all looked at each other before running near behind her. Y/n shouted again, “MY ASSIGNMENT!”

nezuko x reader where only mc can calm down demon nezuko in a fit of rage (missing tanjiro as he sustained a lot of injuries and is still crawling back to your wherabouts)

this is a very old draft, but i wanted to finish this for the new ds ep! so spoilers to those who haven’t seen the anime or read the manga! I kind of cut sum stuff out to avoid making it longer. hi there anon bud uh hope you’re doing okay!

you screamed in horror as nezuko hungrily lunges at the innocent injured woman with the intent to devour her. as fast as your aching legs can take you, you jumped onto nezuko’s back, and slot the blade between her teeth to prevent her from hurting the poor woman. you cringed as her teeth nearly sinks into your (f/c) blade. you forgot how strong she was!

“ nezuko, please calm down!! fight it! you have to resist it! “ blinded by her intense hunger, nezuko hustles around, growling, screaming as she tries to remove you from her body. you held on tighter, squeezing your eyes shut as you desperately beg for the girl to snap out of it.

“ don’t worry! [name]’s here! your brother will be here soon too, we’ll make it okay! just—“ you gasp as your back harshly met with the celling. crying in pain as the two of you fell back to the floor with you still on nezuko’s back, refusing to let go, you desperately prayed that tanjirou would hurry back and help you calm her down. “ nezuko, please! you mustn’t give in!-“ in attempt to get you off her body, she throws herself into the thin wall, crashing into another room full of bystanders. the angry demon blindly clawed at you repeatedly and managed to scratch your cheek and ear. “ ow, ow! shit you feisty minion, you’re scratching me! “ the bystanders in the room cowered on fear, stupidly watching the scene unfold. “ why the hell are all of you standing around for, run! is everyone here just stupid bimbos and stupid horny bums?!-“

abruptly, nezuko braces herself and jumps through the ceiling to another floor. you coughed horsely at the dust filling your throat and you’re starting to lose the remainder of your strength. the grip you managed to hold around her waist weakens. the bystanders around you screamed at the sight of you and nezuko coming through the floor. much to your luck, daki who seemed severely burnt, angrily stalks towards you two with her sashes ready to strike. you cursed under your breath, you can’t just let nezuko go with innocents near by! in a flash, tengen appears beside you, marveled by nezuko’s transformation. he comments on her violent behavior completely ignoring the demon behind him.

“ tengen! you lame ass wannabe sissy, can’t you see the weight of the situation here? help me out! “ the hashira shrugs, uncharacteristically unbothered by your insult. “ what do you want me to do about it? it’s quite a shame that kamado boy is having you babysit his own sister. not very manly of him when he talked so big in front of master. why not sing her a lullaby? make it quick, the fight isn’t over yet. “ before you can curse out the man for his lack of support, growling, nezuko suddenly lunges herself backwards, smashing through the wall and throwing you two out of the building. your stomach dropped at the gut-wrenching realization that it was going to be a hard fall.

your body hit the ground roughly, knocking the wind out of your lungs. your vision filled with black spots as you peer up at the cloudless night sky in exhaustion. your consciousness is slipping, nezuko’s violent growls and grunts of anger grew more and more distant. at this point, nezuko is halfway from finally ripping herself from your body until a familiar voice booms from the distance.

“ (name)! please, hold nezuko off for just a little more, i’m almost there! she’s trying to get away! “ snapping back to reality, you swiftly snatched nezuko back to your front by the blade still pressed between her teeth. she aggressively reaches her hand out towards the building and you followed suit, grabbing ahold of it in a tender manner. you take a deep yet shaky breath, leaning down towards her ear and whispered, “ it’s time to simmer down now, your big brother tanjirou is going to be here soon. we’ll all be together again.“ the warmth in your voice, your tender words, and the way your hand is grasping hers strikes a familiar nostalgia within her.

her aggression seizes and much to your surprise, she bursts out crying. you released the sword from her mouth and tossed it to the side to comfort her until she reduces to a small weeping child asleep in your arms. the sound of rapid footsteps approach and tanjirou bends down next to you to drink in the sight in front of him. he places his calloused hand on her temple gingerly. “ are you alright (name)? thank you, thank you for looking out for her when i couldn’t. if i only got here sooner. .”

“ don’t start with ifs now, tanjirou. tengen and the upper moon is still inside. “

“ r-right! “

synopsis: a songfic with the song "falling for u!" by peachy <3

wc: 1176

i was hanging with you and then i realized

you were out taking a stroll with tanjiro, the beautiful hues of the setting sun reflected on his face making him practically shine.

"woah," he stared in awe as the sun disappeared into the ocean. "it's so beautiful, isn't it?" he smiles at you.

"yeah, it is." you smile back.

something about his smile and his voice..it sent chills down your spine. it doesn't help that his eyes shine so bright they probably make the stars jealous. and his personality? why is so nice? why does it keep giving you butterflies every time?

i didn't think it was true

is it..? no, it can't be. tanjiro has been your friend for almost 2 years and that's all he is. just a friend. nothing more.

unless..?

you'll have to ask mitsuri about this.

i was surprised when i found i'd fallen for you

"you're in love, y/n!" mitsuri squealed.

in love? with tanjiro?

your eyes widen, "no, you're mistaken!"

she grins as if she was the one in love, "look at yourself, y/n! you're blushing."

"huh?" you bring your fingers to touch your cheeks. they're warm. really really warm. "oh..."

i didn't wanna believe my feelings for you

"tanjiro is nothing more than a friend. it seems that he's just a closer..friend than others." you cross your arms, firm in your statement.

"nothing more than a friend..yet."

"no, never."

"y/n, it's okay to admit your feelings for him. being in love is totally normal and, in fact, you're lucky you fell for a guy like tanjiro!"

"but i don't want to be in love."

"why not?"

i didn't wanna believe that i could lose you if i told you just how i felt

"because what if i tell him and he doesn't share the same feelings? it'd just make things awkward and ruin our friendship."

"but how do you know he'll reject you?"

"because-" you took a second to think about it.

she smiled, resting her head on the palm of her hand.

"well, because his top priority is to find a cure for nezuko. love would just get in the way and hinder his progress."

"that's where you're wrong, y/n. love isn't something you can control. you can't switch it on and off like a light switch. so he definitely can be in love with you while still having his priorities."

"but-"

"no more excuses, y/n. you're in love and you know you are!" she pat your head.

but i can't help it, i'm falling for you

as much as you hate to admit it, she's right. and as much as you don't want to be in love, you are.

"fine. maybe i do have a little crush on tanjiro."

"are you sure it's just a crush?" she chuckled.

your cheeks turned beet red, "yes, it definitely is just a crush!!"

"mhm, sure." she laughed.

and i can't quit it, 'cause i'm stuck on you

the next time you saw tanjiro, your cheeks turn red and you immediately walked the other way.

"oh, y/n!" he waved from afar.

you noticed him and did a full 180°.

"y/n, wait up!" he chased after you, still waving his hand to catch your attention.

he stops running when he realizes that you're speed walking away from him and just stands there complaining dumbfounded.

and it might be pathetic

you continued speed walking which gradually turned into full on sprinting away from him.

have you always had these feelings? you swore your heart never raced that fast at the sight of tanjiro.

and you might be skeptical

the next few times you saw him, the same thing happened. he tried to approach you in a setting where there was no possible way you'd run, but you still did.

again, he stood there dumbfounded wondering what's going on.

did he make you mad? what could he have possibly done that made you keep running away from him?

wait-

but i just want to be with you

you fully admitted and accepted that you do, indeed, like tanjiro. you came to mitsuri for advice so often, it was unusual for you not to, but you still never took any of it.

each time she just smiled and listened to your rants and your stories. she'd put in her words of advice and comments here and there, but it was mostly just you who was talking.

please tell me, boy, can you get a clue or come through?

"why won't he realize? should i be more obvious?"

"i'm sure he's already realized, y/n. you make it so painfully obvious."

"no i don't!"

"y/n, don't try to fight it. stuff like this happens with love."

you sigh.

'cause i just want to be with you

you wonder how you'd be as a couple. would he make a good boyfriend? would you make a good partner? mitsuri urged you to tell him because "the only way to find out is to make it come true."

you couldn't help but daydream about him every chance you got.

i'm scared of telling you how i feel

"y/n, you really should tell him. you've been avoiding him for 2 months!"

"but i'm scared.."

"i know you are, everyone is when they confess."

maybe its better if i just try to conceal the truth for me and for you

"i won't tell him." you firmly state.

"you have to."

"no i don't."

"well then you have to move on, but i doubt you'd be able to do that either." she shrugs.

"i hate how right you are." you sigh.

mitsuri set up a whole moment for you to confess. it was in a beautiful field of flowers at the time of sunset.

"you got this, y/n!" she encouraged before leaving to call tanjiro.

but i'm still stuck on you

tanjiro arrived after what felt like eternity. "y/n?" he tilted his head.

"mm.." its hard to form words when your heart is beating at 800mph.

"why have you been avoiding me for so long?" he asks.

"because...well, i realized that.." you take a deep breath, preparing yourself for rejection before continuing, "i realized that i like you, tanjiro."

his eyes widen, "huh?"

you nod in embarrassment

i, i, i'm still falling for you

his gaze softens, a wide smile appears on his face. "you should've told me earlier, y/n."

"huh?" you look up at his beautiful red eyes. the sun shone from right behind him, giving the illusion that he was glowing. well, it may not be an illusion. maybe he really is glowing.

"i've liked you for the longest time, too, y/n." he smiled brighter.

"wha-" you're cut off by him hugging you.

you could really get used to his embrace. he was warm and smelled so good. you hug him back. the sun now shone behind both of you, making you both look like you were glowing. which you really were.

a/n: second songfic! i think i'll make this into a series for the hashira men + kamaboko trio

[eternalfics]

TANJIRO looked at you slightly confused, as you wake him up. “happy birthday, tanji,” you whisper to him softly. “you remembered.” he smiled like an angel. “why wouldn’t I?”, he only smile wider. that’s what you loved about tanjiro, his smile was like a candle, lighting up a dark room. his eyes were like cherrys growing in a fresh field. he noticed that you were staring and spoke up, “let’s go wake the others up.” you let him sit up, but before he could stand up, a tiny girl jumped on him. nezuko’s excited muffles could be heard, as if she was telling tanjiro happy birthday.(this was before nezuko conquered the sun) “thank you, nezuko,” he replied, before letting out a chuckle.

AAAAA HAPPY BIRTHDAYYYYTY 🤪🤪

[colourstreakgryffin]

omg, tanjiro x fem reader req<3

tanjiro comes back from a mission and finds milo sleeping in his haori

Awww! Cute, even more Tanjiro stuff and since we all love him dearly, I have no issue with this in the slightest! Let’s goooo~! I’m imagining him as a Hashira tbh!

Kamado Tanjiro- Just So Cuddly

Tanjiro tiredly stumbled into his Estate with heavy eyes and slightly throbbing muscles, gently and precisely perching up his Katana just besides his own bedroom entranceway as the second he stepped foot into the familiar, comforting room

His plum reds widened in surprise at what sat in the centre, practically attracting all attention towards it and it was just perfect. Tanjiro let out a soft smile, traversing on soft steps

You, his beloved fiancé, cuddled in the soft futon with a spare of his much bigger black and green checkered haori wrapped around her body like a makeshift blanket, keeping her warm in the best way the thin fabric can

Tanjiro slowly approached you, dropping down to his knees to better scan over your adorable sleeping face. Tanjiro loved every inch of you and he just wanted to stare at you for hours on, his eyes forming love hearts

Instead of taking the spare of his signature haori off you to hang up again, he repositioned it over your revealed skin, alongside the thick blanket so you’ll be nice, snuggly and warm

Just as you deserved to be, Tanjiro was completely willing to keep you protected and bundled up like a sushi roll since his love for you shaped his opinions over you. You went from a friend to the love of his life, where he loves to spoil rotten

Tanjiro thought intensely as he kept scanning over your slowly rising and falling back, breathing softly and it just made Tanjiro’s heart flip over and over, as if it was crossing the grand nine seas

He didn’t want to climb into the futon as to not wake you up, he didn’t want to stir you from your peaceful rest as you dreamt of spending a lunch with Tanjiro at the Cherry Blossom park, the one that had hills decorated with cherry blossom petals scattered all over the floor

If only Tanjiro could see into your dreams, his smile would increase

“Goodnight, my love…”

Just read your piece of Tanjiro getting to sleep in someone’s lap for the first time! Ugh had me squealing he deserves all the love and affection. Your writing is truly gorgeous. The little details about the carvings of butterflies and Nezuko chasing fireflies. My heart.

I need more Tanjiro please please! Maybe a stargazing moment where he keeps getting distracted by the beauty of reader instead of the stars.

Tanjiro + stargazing with s/o

“That one is Taiwei to the east, and that one is Beidou. Then at the very top of Beidou is Beiji. That’s the one you want to look for as it always points north. Tanjiro? Tanjiro? Are you even listening?”

Tanjiro snapped out of his daze at [Y/N]’s question, realizing he had been staring off into space. Just not the space they were talking about. “Sorry [Y/N]. I got distracted.”

[Y/N] grumbled and frowned. “This is important.” They told him. “It’s not just a bunch of stars and stories. They have a practical application for navigation. When you’re out in the world on missions, this is a useful skill for being able to find your way. You can’t always follow your nose like a lost dog.”

“Sorry [Y/N]…..” Tanjiro apologized again. Hanging his head because they were right. They were trying to teach him something and he was being very inconsiderate in not paying attention.

The other demon slayer sighed. “What were you getting distracted by anyway?”

“I don’t want to say.”

“Come on.” [Y/N] urged. “I’m curious now.”

“Well….you.” They seemed surprised by his answer. So he figured he should explain further. “You just look so lively and excited when you talk about stars. It’s clear that it’s a passion for you. My world is pretty small, but you can tell that your world is miles away in the heavens. It’s really breath taking. You look even more beautiful than usual.”

[Y/N]’s face turned beet red as his confession and they turned away from him. “W-Well…who wouldn’t be excited about stars?! They’re fascinating.”

Tanjiro gave them a crescent eyed, soft smile. “You’re right. Tell me more about them. I promise I’ll pay attention this time.”

“W-Well…see that cluster of stars there? You can’t see it right now, but it’s actually apart of a bigger collection of stars called a constellation belt.”

Tanjiro sat and listened. He really tried to pay attention. But, it was hard to focus on what [Y/N] was saying and not [Y/N] themselves. He probably only got about half of it.
