    Summary

    Onii-chan? he thought. Something you call your older brother. The familiar girl tried to help him up, ushering him from where he was laying down in the cold snow in front of the doorway and inside the small home where the sickly sweet smell was stronger. The girl paled as soon as she opened the dilapidated door, but she steeled herself and guided him inside, and it was then that he saw it, the carnage that was inside of what used to be a quaint little home. Corpses of people strewn about carelessly, their blood seeping through the tatami floor— Mom, Takeo, Hanako, Shigeru, Rokuta — seemingly against his will, his knees crumpled down onto the floor, tears filling his eyes as his throat let out the most agonizing sound…

    And it all came rushing back.

    His name was Kamado Tanjirou.
    --
    A (Mostly) Tanjirou-centric Role Reversal AU. Where Tanjirou never stops being an older brother, despite becoming a demon.

    Summary

    “You think I’m as cute as Nezuko?!” Though that hadn’t really been what Tanjirou was saying, he surprisingly didn’t feel the need to deny it. Zenitsu was cute, though in a different way than Nezuko.

    Just a small scene in the hospital ward post Natagumo Mountain arc with the sweet boys being sweet.

    Summary

    It’s been four years since Tanjirou and the Demon Slayer Corps successfully defeated Muzan and it was safe to say that he could finally live a peaceful, stress-free life.

    But alas, life (his especially) always worked in mysterious ways. When Zenitsu proposes the outrageous idea of kissing each other for practice, feelings that were once buried start to resurface and Tanjirou is forced to confront the second biggest challenge of his life: love.

    Summary

    Zenitsu hears him before he sees him. Always. The sound of Tanjiro’s sandals on the gravel path is so specific—too specific. He knows the difference between Tanjiro walking tired and Tanjiro walking focused and Tanjiro walking like he’s thinking about something too hard. Today it’s the last one. His feet shuffle in a rhythm that’s uneven but not aimless. That’s the kind of walk Tanjiro does when he’s being gentle with his own thoughts, like he’s scared they’ll break if he presses too hard. Zenitsu loves that walk. He hates how much he loves that walk.

    Tanjiro smells like burning timber and charcoal and… faintly, always faintly, peach blossoms. Zenitsu doesn’t know why. No one else smells like that. No one else has ever smelled like that. It’s his—Tanjiro’s scent is just his. It’s clean and heavy and good. It’s the kind of scent that wraps around the base of your skull and sits there, safe. Safe in a way Zenitsu doesn’t remember being. Safe in a way he wants to deserve.

    So when the door creaks open and Zenitsu doesn’t look up, it’s not because he doesn’t hear him. It’s because he does.
