Summary
This is a companion one-shot collection to Where We Are Allowed to Want, set in the same genderbend AU.
Each chapter explores the backstory of a different character, focusing on their lives before the events of the main fic. Childhoods, first connections, complicated relationships, and quiet traumas take center stage, revealing the experiences that shaped who they became.
These stories are meant to add emotional depth and context to the main narrative, shedding light on past events that continue to influence the characters’ choices, fears and desires.
While each one-shot can be read on its own, the collection is best enjoyed alongside the main fic.

Summary
After a brutal mission, the Hashira return wounded — but it’s their hearts that are truly in turmoil.
Iguro and Kanroji stumble through a hesitant, secret romance, inexperienced and hopelessly in love. Around them, bonds tighten, jealousy sparks, and found family chaos grows louder than the war outside.
For a while, it almost feels like peace.
But demons do not wait for happiness to bloom. When a calculated attack leaves more questions than answers, the Hashira begin to realize that not everything was meant to be won — and that love may be the very thing Muzan intends to exploit.
A genderbend Taisho-era AU full of romance, emotional chaos, and a war that slowly turns personal.
This story gradually shifts into darker themes. Please mind the tags.
