Wish Upon a Star by tiarra

Summary
"My sister Tsutako said that a wish would come true if you prayed three times to a shooting star," Giyu says quietly, gazing at the stars above.
Sabito may have the appearance of a thirteen-year-old boy, but he'd be twenty-one by now if he were still alive. He isn't naïve enough to think a shooting star will really make wishes come true, but what if…?

Summary
“Where am I?” Giyū manages, his voice barely louder than a whisper.
“I brought you to a wisteria house,” Sabito replies. “I mean, you’re wearing the uniform of the Demon Slaying Corps, so I figured it’d be okay.”
Giyū blinks at Sabito slowly. He’d been expecting an answer more along the lines of “the afterlife” or “purgatory.”
“Anyway, I’m Sabito,” Sabito continues, and Giyū feels more and more lost with every word. “Although you probably know me as the Water Pillar.”
(Or: A convenient demon blood technique sends Giyū to a timeline where he's dead and Sabito's alive.)

Summary
Giyuu is really nothing more than a seat warmer for a more competent water pillar to come along someday.
When he saw Tanjirou wield his family’s axe and defend his sister, he saw potential. In the short amount of time he spent observing Tanjirou, he saw many things in him. Kindness so genuine it took him aback; concern for others that made the world a little sunnier; and a sense of justice so strong it reminded him of a boy with peach hair. Tanjirou was strong, and he would only become stronger as he grew. He would make a great pillar one day, with some years of training and experience under his belt.
But if all his years spent as not only a hashira, but also as someone who was raised in a world where demons attack the innocent, it had taught him one thing and one thing only— the world was dangerous for kind people.
The idea of giving Tanjirou his spot as a pillar of the demon slayers organization makes him slightly nauseous.
Tomioka Giyuu, if he played a more active part in helping the Kamado siblings after he spared their life.

Summary
The last thing Giyū saw was the horrible creature known as Muzan crawling away to another part of their quickly crumbling world, taking the hashira who could still fight with him, and the bodies of those who no longer couldn't, behind him. Giyū was the latter, trying to stand up even through the sea of blood at his feet. He was dying.
Why was this happening? Wasn't the slayer mark supposed to boost his survival?
Turns out, it did. Maybe a little too well.
Fate had once again chosen the wrong person to save, Giyū thought, back in his thirteen year old body, staring at his dead childhood friend right in the face. Tanjiro would have been so much better at time travel.

Giyu dies. At least, he thinks he did. Yet here he is, standing in a strange place he doesn't recognise, with a certain achingly familiar face.

Or, your average SabiGiyu "Giyu dies and wakes up in a different timeline where Sabito is alive" fic, with a slight twist.

Summary
Given a second chance, Giyuu Tomioka walks a path he never imagined—one where every choice, every bond, could alter the future. By guiding Tanjiro, reconciling with Urokodaki, and seeking allies long before they were meant to be, he lays the first stones of a new tomorrow. It is both an ending and a beginning… the quiet start of a story yet to unfold.

Summary
Giyuu finds himself conflicted in this very moment, wondering what in the timeline is at stake should he strike, because the annals of history are so easily altered that Sabito is standing next to him today (his own sword unsheathed and one of his hands tugging at Giyuu’s arms so hard his fingernails are digging divots into his skin.)
He worries at his bottom lip, and registers the movement of the Lower Moon, who rudely has not waited for him to finish his rumination and was unleashing a demon blood art, whose exact skillset he does not remember but reacts to on instinct.
Giyuu is struck by immense Deja Vu as he decapitates the demon once more.Tomioka Giyuu has no intention of becoming the Water Hashira again in this bright new world where Sabito is alive.
Sabito takes in a deep breath. “WHAT IN THE WORLD WAS THAT?!?!”
But really, old habits don't seem to die (even when he already did).
And why does the Upper Third remember his name in a world years before Giyuu('s reckless ward Tanjiro) ever gives it to him?Bookmarked by queerer_kindness

Summary
A few years ago, if you’d have told Vyncent he’d panic-booked an immediate flight to New Haven Airport from across the country, rushed through the city with his school bag and nothing else, and then called Dakota and begged to be picked up from the docks so he could get to Harttawa Island all for his ghostly best friend who’d panic-confessed his love, he’d probably look at you like you were completely insane and call for some Fauna Adventurers to take care of you.

Summary
He stutters, surprised. There is someone gripping his shoulder, dragging on his movement. Whipping around, he raises his sword – a challenge to whichever insolent prick thought they could interrupt his training – before he stumbles, collecting himself.
“Just what do you think you’re doing?In the aftermath of the Swordsmith Village Arc, Tokitou recovers at the Butterfly Mansion. He loathes his weakness, and feels that old fury build up inside him once more, leading to a vicious bout of training on a starless night. But if there's one thing Tanjirou can't stand, it's seeing someone he cares about hurt.
In other words: The author loses their goddamn mind over two fictional characters as they finally figure out the depth of their feelings for each other.
There are some mentions of vomiting blood, but they're a bit vague. Still, read at your own risk. Hopefully it's not too gross

Summary
Sanemi and Giyuu are on a mission together when a chance encounter with an unfortunate blood art renders the water hashira unconscious, forced to relive his worst memories. While he grapples with his feelings about the past, Sanemi has to figure out how to take care of the other hashira in the freezing weather while also dealing with his own pride and the genuine worry conflicting in his mind- not to mention the growing crush he's been wrestling with for a few months now. Perhaps this experience could make their relationship a bit less hostile.
Or: Enmu could have done so much more with his blood art and I'm taking advantage of that fact to present you with some nice SaneGiyuu angst.
AN: Alas, I wrote this decades ago in my youth and have yet to finish it / am no longer interested in this story so unfortunately it's not done. Just a warning before u read it, I'm terribly sorry I blame my adhd

Summary
The last time Obanai saw Mitsuri, she was dying.
One would think, with majority of his senses still functioning and interacting with her almost daily, his mind would get with the fucking program and remember she was alive.
--
During the day, Obanai is with Mitsuri, who is happy and full of light. During the night, he loses her to blood and tears. The nightmares take their toll and the consequences begin to spill into the day. What kind of person is he, unable to keep control of his own mind? She might be better off staying away from him.
