“You never cease to surprise me Giyuu,” she mused, trailing her fingers down his arm and into his open palm. “Sometimes I think I have you figured out, but then I turn a page and there is more.

“Hmm,” she murmured, smoothing his hair away from his face. “What brought down your walls?”
He leaned slightly into her touch but looked away over her shoulder before he answered.
“Tanjirou. And Nezuko. When I found them in the forest on the day she was turned into a demon. They were the beginning.”Series
