Chapter Text
The sun rises above the horizon, the sky slowly turning from orange to blue.
Seven hashira sit respectfully on the ground as they wait for ubuyashiki. Their posture straight, either straight or content smiles on their faces.
Sanemi shinuzugawa, muichiro tokito, giyuu tomioka, gyomei himejima, Mitsuri Kanroji, obanai iguro, and shinobu kocho sit in their usual spots like they do every hashira meeting.
Ubuyashiki quietly steps in the room, taking a seat in the front of the room.
“Thank you for joining me in this meeting, My children.” Ubuyashiki says respectfully. “You must be curious what this is about?” He looks at the hashira for approval.
Mitsuri and gyomei nod respectfully.
“Hm. Well, as we have had two open hashira spots, as tengen uzui has retired and kyojiro rengoku has…” he pauses, “deceased.”
The hashira looked a bit more solemn and mourning at the mention of his passing, though they continue to listen with open ears.
“…I have found two worthy people to take their positions.”
The hashira looked a bit more intrigued. He has found two people worthy of the spot already?
Ubuyashiki turns his head towards the sliding door, “you may enter now.” He spoke.
The hashira’s attention was now fully on the door, expecting two strong looking people to come in.
But unexpectedly, two kids come in instead, they can’t be any older than fifteen to sixteen.
One has light, strawberry blonde ginger hair with mismatched eyes, similar to obanai but with different colors of blue and hazel. He has tan skin and freckles, like the sun itself. He wears a red haori decorated with dark red marks of detailed blood designs. (The design is just chuuya’s corruption marks.)
The other kid looks the opposite, he has messy dark brown hair, only a few shades away from black. His skin is silky pale, maybe a tiny bit more tan than Shinobu’s skin. The boy wears bandages around his arms, neck, and around his right eye. He looks a lot more self kept and closed off than the boy to his right. His eyes are big and beady, his iris looks black in this lighting but in the sun it’s a reddish brown. His undereyes carry deep eyebags that look like he hasn’t slept in days. He looks as if he represents the moon, more specifically a blood moon. His haori is black with dark blue fade at the ends, decorated with small dots of black that make it look like splattered ink. The inside lining of his haori is a deep velvet, similar to that of fresh blood.

Description of breathing styles:
[Blood breathing: since dazai isn’t strong enough to decaptiate a demon, he uses a certain type of breathing style. Blood breathing is used whenever the target’s blood has been exposed, dazai’s breathing style creates a physiological illusion of death and the smell of rot and decay, no matter how used to it the victim is, it drives their mind mad and triggers panic and madness, along with nausea aslwell. The victim is then led to kill themselves brutally, usually by committing bare handed sebukku.
One form:
Form one: crimson draw / a fast opening slash meant to draw the first blood, often used near the opponent’s neck or side. Once the opponent is cut, themental pressure begins.
Extra info: this breathing style is seen as gruesome and disgusting despite getting the job done; often looked down upon by more clean styles like water breathing, though many still support it as stated “if it gets the job done with the demons, it's welcomed.”]
[Gravity breathing: manipulates the weight of movements, making strikes feel or appear crushing and overwhelming or light and smooth.
Four forms:
Form one: crushing orbit / a spinning downward slash that feels like gravity pulling the opponent into the blade
Form two: red singularity / a rapid dash followed by multiple heavy strikes that pin the enemy in place
Form three: falling comet / a mid air attack where user leaps high and crashes down with immense force
Form four/final form: corruption collapse / a berserker state where each movement becomes brutally powerful and fast
Extra info: seen as efficient and strong, though needs lots of training to perfect all four forms.]
