    YOOO DUDE

    DUDE THIS SI SO COOL

    MULTIPLE PEOPLE COMING BACK TO PROTECT THE HAPPY ENDING FUTURE YES

    AND HELLO?? NEW AKAZA BLOOD ART RECONSTRUCTION??? FUCK YES

     

    ohohoOHOHOHOHOOHOHOOO KOKUSHIBO AND RENGOKUS HAVE HISTORRYYYYY

    awwwwww senjuros getting to him 🥺 in kokushibos own uh, weird way
    “The only saving graces left are that this human somehow sired a flame hashira capable of defeating an Upper Moon and a boy whose personality bears an uncanny resemblance to Rengoku.

    This mission has made Kokushibou sentimental, and this boy, exceptionally so. He considers turning the little Rengoku into a demon after this is over. He would hand the boy his father as his first meal, perhaps give him a chance at revenge for the abuse he’s suffered.“

     

    kokushibo sent a letter to kyojuro
    oh fuck

     

    “ So they quickly develop an odd sort of repertoire. Tsugikuni is like an old man, Senjurou only needed to ask once and he is regaled with stories of the first demon slayers. Upper Moon one speaks of missions he went on with Senjurou's ancestor, of the development of the five breathing styles that originated from the breath of the sun. He speaks of the first Rengoku, his achievements, his follies, their bonding over some sort of inferiority complex about sun breathing.

    Senjurou absorbs all the history with a voracious curiosity. They sit over tea for hours like this -- Senjurou the enamored audience, and Tsugikuni the old samurai reminiscing about his glory days.

    At one point, Senjurou sheepishly asks if he might write down Tsugikuni's stories. It earns him a bemused stare and a long stretch of silence before the demon relents.”

    THATS SO CUUUUUTTEEE AWWWWWWWEEE please senjuro be the one to melt his heart

     

    “ "I see why Akaza was interested in you," Kokushibou says with a voice too dispassionate for the white hot brightness of his eyes, "I have not met a flame with such skill since the first Rengoku."”

    DAYUUMMMMMM YES KYOJURO!!!!!

    holy shit
    holy shit it’s kokushibo
    kokushibo is the fourth person to get a second chance

    vv This whole section is just beautiful
    “ "Ah, yes, you mentioned this fighting spirit before!" Kyoujurou's gaze prickles his skin, "May I ask what it is?"

    Akaza glances to him. He shines with earnest curiosity, fiery hair and blazing spirit alight in the moonlight. The answer spools out of his mouth as though it were pulled out by Kyoujurou, "In its barest form, a fighting spirit is one's will to live. But it is also determination and anger and desperation and all those things that make people desire to fight. Some of them are magnificent."

    "What does mine look like?"

    Akaza looks, truly looks at Kyoujurou's spirit and his breath is stolen just as it was when he first laid eyes on it, "Undying fire," He says in near reverence, "You are an unmistakable blaze, perfectly controlled and yet untamed," His eyes narrow and he meets Kyoujurou's single crimson eye, "There's an anger there that wants to burn and consume. It's like watching a forest fire."

    The smile falls.

    "I am not angry," Kyoujurou says with a frown. And there is a flare in him.

    Akaza smiles as the anger he denies unravels in the smallest amount, incensed that he might acknowledge its presence. "You are, my compass doesn't deceive me."

    "Perhaps you have mistaken passion for rage."

    "I know what I see," Akaza tilts his head. And then he returns to looking forward, eyes casting about the empty streets, "There's nothing wrong with being angry. Rage and wrath can be beautiful."

    "I do not see how you can say that about such negative emotions."

    "But it's not all negative," His gaze wanders to the waning moon, "Anger is what drives us into action. I wouldn't have broken the curse without it. And your anger," His eyes slide to glance at Kyoujurou, "Is glorious."

    Kyoujurou's heart begins to beat faster and Akaza finds the sound sweet.

    Kyoujurou does not respond. He is heavy with thoughts and Akaza feels that he may have unsettled him.

    No matter, Akaza believes everything he said and he is an honest man.

    They continue in pregnant silence, a million words in the air.”

     

    lmao not fucking douma actually missing akaza genuinely maybe, what a lunatic
