   Summary

   He was a Hashira. A loner. Well, he was currently the placeholder of the water hashira, waiting for a real water hashira to take his place, but they wouldn't know. He wasn't a real hashira. And, in the eyes of others, the hashiras didn't need anybody. Especially him. Giyuu was only known for always being alone. People just didn't like him. The only exceptions to that had been Sabito and Tsutako. Though, that didn't come as a surprise to Giyuu. Giyuu was like a magnet. A magnet that pushed everyone away, no matter how much he tried not to.

   _____

   Aka: Giyuu is haunted by his past, drowning in grief, and slowly unraveling through flashbacks to the moments he tries hardest to forget.
