Chapter 4: Under the Wistaria Crest
The Wistaria House belonged to an old kind lady named Hisa, who Zenitsu was scared of, no really, and Inosuke just completely doesn’t have any manners in regards to elders.
At least Tanjiro was a decent human being and tried to rile the other males in.
Hisa had shown them the room they would be staying in and then the bathrooms.
Signing tired, Yua leaned her head on the bathtub of the Wisteria House, trying to enjoy the warm bath and forget the stress of the day.
It was difficult since she heard from the other side, where the men's bathroom was, how Inosuke hollered and splashed around. Zenitsu’s whining and every gentle Tanjiro begging them not to destroy the room.
An angry mark appeared on her head and she hit the wall beside her hard.
“WILL YOU THREE BABIES STOP AND JUST TAKE A FUCKING BATH!”, she screamed loud enough to be heard. “OR DO I NEED TO GET OVER THERE TO BATHE YOU MYSELF!”
That was clearly the wrong thing to say because Zenitsu actually purred: “Aww, Yua-Senpai, I would feel honoured to be in your naked presence and get bathed by you.”
Before she could say anything, she heard how someone hit Zenitsu hard on the head so that he fell out of the bathtub.
“You don’t talk to a lady that way Zenitsu, shame on you! I’m terribly sorry Yua-Senpai.”
“Kamado, did you hit Agatsuma?”
“Yes?”
“Thank you.”
Tanjiro answered that it was no problem at all, anybody ignoring Zenitsu’s screams of mistreatment.
After that little incident, they all finished their bath and put on the kimonos Hisa had prepared for them.
Zenitsu had formally heart eyes seeing Yua in the form-fitting kimono and her long midnight blue hair in a side braid. She just flicked his forehead and told him coldly: “Not even in your dreams!”
And then made her way to their room.
Yua heard how Zenitsu whined, while Tanjiro told him he deserved it for being so shameless and Inosuke was just confused about what that all was about.
When she opened the door Hisa was already sitting in seiza in the room with four plates with food prepared for them.
“And here is your meal.”, said the old lady gently.
The only girl in the group couldn’t even thank her as Zenitsu shouted: “She has to be a monster, Tanjiro! That old lady’s a monster! She’s so quick, it’s eerie! She’s a monster! A monster hag –“
For that, he got two smacks on the head from Tanjiro and Yua. Yua and Tanjiro looked into each other's eyes as Zenitsu bowed down holding his hurting head.
“Great minds think alike, isn’t it so Kamado-San?”
She gave him a little smirk, which in turn made Tanjiro gently blush. He only nodded.
Yeah, Yua decided she liked Tanjiro the best of the three boys.
Finally, the quartet sat down for dinner and Inosuke ate…well like a pig. Fitting for someone who owned a boar mask and acted like one.
He really was more animal than man. Yua could just stare at him in bizarre fascination.
Zenitsu told Inosuke that he should use his chopstick, but got ignored as the wild boy stole more food from Tanjiro’s plate.
He grinned at the red-haired boy in a cheeky way.
Inosuke definitely wanted to get a rise out of Tanjiro suspects Yua, sadly for him Tanjiro is too nice to even think something like that and even offers him more of his food.
That Inosuke is more than pissed off is an understatement.
When they finished dinner, Hisa showed them their room for sleep.
Again Zenitsu screams she is a monster and again Tanjiro and Yua hit him over the head.
When will the blond learn?
Meanwhile, Inosuke dives into his chosen futon.
“First come, first served! I’m taking this one!”, proclaims the wild boy, petting the futon.
“That’s fine. Sleep wherever you want.”, tells Tanjiro with a smile. Yua doesn’t need her Aura Sensing to see that it’s pissing off Inosuke.
Tanjiro turns to Zenitsu asking him where he would like to sleep. Before he can answer, Inosuke smacks his pillow against the blond’s face.
Having enough Yua grips Inosuke by the ear, which makes him actually squeal.
“Boarhead, can you for one second not make trouble?!”
“Let go of me, woman! Or face my wrath!”
“Pssh, I’m a higher Rank than you, when I’m done with you, you will not even know anymore where it is up and down!”
“Lucky Bastard.”
“Zenitsu…what is that supposed to mean?”
“Aww, Tanjiro, you are so pure like a maiden.”
Before the whole situation can escalate even more, Hisa returns with a doctor in tow. Of course, Yua gets a checkup first and alone, then it’s the boys' turn.
Now they all lay in their futons staring up at the ceiling.
Zenitsu is the first who breaks the silence: “Who would’ve guessed that all four of us had broken ribs?”
Yua got one broken as she guessed, Zenitsu two, Tanjiro three, and last Inosuke with four. It’s also the order they are sleeping side by side.
The midnight blue-haired girl still wonders how Zenitsu manages to snatch the futon beside her. She would rather sleep beside Inosuke, than the blond womanizer.
Good thing, that she always sleeps with her Katana beside her.
“This knot hurts more than my ribs.”, deadpans Inosuke, referring to the big bump Tanjiro’s headbutt had caused.
“Sorry.”, apologized to the red-haired boy.
“Hey, you’d better apologize. It really hurts, you know. Getting pounded to a pulp like that.”, tells Zenitsu Inosuke. “Say you’re sorry.”
“I’ll pass.”
“Say you’re sorry!”
“I’ll pass!”
“Just say you’re sorry!”, yell Yua and Tanjiro together.
Goddammit, the two are worse than when Kaito and Hikari have their little spats!
“If you’re gonna be like that, we’re not eating with you anymore.”, threatens the blond-haired boy.
Not that it’s really threatening to Inosuke since he doesn’t understand what’s so bad about it. Even if Zenitsu explains how meals always taste better with company and Tanjiro even agrees, the wild boy is still lost. He asks them if they hurt their head.
That’s when Hisa calls out for them, asking if they need anything, which makes Zenitsu again freak out and again Tanjiro and Yua call him out.
When Yua is back home she will give Kaito and Hikari a lot of kisses. These two aren’t as nearly as exhausting as Zenitsu and Inosuke.
Tanjiro was all right.
After all is calm again it seems like it’s time for some bonding, since Tanjiro asks Inosuke why he joined the Demon Slayer Corps. Not gonna lie, Yua was curious too.
Apparently, a Demon Slayer stumbled upon Inosuke’s Mountain and the wild boy took his sword. Then he heard about the Final Selection and how demons exist and just joined.
Wow, for Inosuke it was all a big competition to see who was the strongest. Now You understood his wild and chaotic Aura too.
“Yua-Senpai.”, Tanjiro turned to her. After failing in bonding with Inosuke about the fact that they both had lived on a mountain and Inosuke made clear since he has no family at all he was only a Demon Slayer for the thrill, the red-haired boy seemed to try to find common ground with her. “Why are you in the Demon Slayer Corps?”
“It shows how new you all are in the Corps if my surname means nothing to you.”, she simply states.
“Whaddya mean by that?”, asks Inosuke.
“My family, the Mochizuki’s, has since the Feudal Era been a part of the Demon Slayer Corps.”
“That long, wow!”, gasp Zenitsu. “How did your family survive this long?”
A little smirk comes over Yua’s lips. She would be lying if she wasn’t proud of her family line to survive till now.
“Our breathing style is the strongest in the Corps. Moon Breathing. I’m the current Master in it.”
“Moon Breathing?”, repeats Tanjiro in wonder.
“It’s just as old as our family. It is one of the hardest and most challenging Breathing Styles to learn. Only one or two manage to learn it in a generation. I’m a Demon Slayer because it’s my birthright and my duty to my family. I will become a Hashira and show anyone why the Mochizuki are the strongest Slayers that exist!”
After her declaration, it’s quiet for a few seconds, until Tanjiro asks what a Hashira is, Zenitsu and even Inosuke nodding along.
Yua makes a facepalm, newbies, but explains to them what the Hashira are.
That the boys are blown away is an understatement. Inosuke is already planning to fight one of them! Yua bets if he could Inosuke would even fist fight the Kami’s.
“So anyone in your family is a slayer?”, wants Tanjiro to know more. “But you are the only one who can currently use Moon Breathing right?”
“Yeah, that’s right. People who marry in our family are often normal civilians, so they aren’t Slayers, like my late mother. Then there is my uncle Hansuke, the husband of my aunt Chiyoko, who is a Demon Slayer. They both meet actually while hunting the same demon. It’s quite a story.”, Yua explains. “Besides that, my father, my uncle Keitaro, my aunt Chiyoko, my uncle Noritaka, my grandfather, and my late older cousin Taiga, my younger cousin Daku are all or were Demon Slayers, only my cousin Sayoko being a Kakushi. That’s like the medical and cleaning-up team after a heavy fight with a demon.”
“You have a big family, that’s nice.”, tells Tanjiro with such bittersweetness in his voice, that Yua looks at the boy.
He seems to be fighting tears…oh she knows that look. He lost beloved people.
The young woman wants to ask him whom he lost, yet it feels wrong to ask him this when he is so vulnerable.
In the pause, Zenitsu took the chance sitting up from the futon to ask something which has been on his mind all day: “Tanjiro, no one else is asking, so I’m gonna ask myself. Why are you travelling with a demon?”
Well, no time like the present. It really was time to get answers from Tanjiro, so Yua sat also up.
“I also know you have a demon with you. I could feel his Aura…yet it’s at the same time so different than all demon Aura’s I ever felt and saw.”
“Yua-Senpai and Zenitsu… you both knew about that and Zenitsu you still protected the box, huh? And you Yua-Senpai didn’t try to kill her.”, say’s Tanjiro softly, also sitting up. “You are great people, you know that? Thanks!”
That’s is too much for Zenitstu and he rolls around the futon, holding his pillow tight. “You really shouldn’t heap so much praise on me! Fufufufu! Yua-Senpai is more amazing!”
“Sweet talking will get you nowhere with me, Agatsuma.”, deadpans Yua simply, ignoring how the blond insists that it’s nothing like that, and making a little bow in Tanjiro's direction. “Your words honour me, Kamado-San.”
Tanjiro smiles so sweetly at them, that Yua feels how her heart stops for a moment. He is such a gentle and loving soul…it’s really an honour to hear these words and get this smile from him.
“I’ve got a keen sense of smell. I knew it from the start. How kind you are, Zenitsu… and how strong…How gentle and powerful you are Yua-Senpai…how admirable.”
“You are a gentle and kind soul Tanjiro, your Aura tells me as much. Don’t lose this, it’s rare to find such good in humanity.”, Yua advised him with a small smile.
Meanwhile, Zenitsu isn’t nearly as touched by Tanjiro’s words as Yua, since formally a dark cloud was around him.
“No, I’m not strong. Don’t give me that. I haven’t forgiven you for stopping me from bringing Shouichi along.”
Tanjiro is lost for words and Yua can just facepalm.
That’s when they hear how the demon in the box is pounding against its door.
Naturally, the blond boy freaks out, being sure his end is near. Not listing to Tanjiro, who tries to reassure him, nor to Yua who makes it clear that from the demon’s Aura, it’s not dangerous.
Zenitsu doesn’t care and was even ready to hide behind Inosuke. Just his luck the wild boy kicks him angrily away, directly in front of the box.
In fear, he scrambles away, till the demon comes out.
Yua has to blink a few times.
The demon is a pretty little girl with a bamboo muzzle. She has big beautiful pink eyes and an adorable face.
“Nezuko…”, calls her Tanjiro gently.
From the Aura colours the young woman sees now, it shows clearly deep family love.
So they are related.
An explanation why he couldn’t kill the little girl demon if she was family.
She is now standing up and formally grows before their eyes. Now she looks like fourteen years old if Yua had to guess.
The demon girl was a real beauty!
From Zenitsu comes a strange strangled scream, while Inosuke doesn’t give a fuck and just falls asleep.
As Tanjiro turns to Yua and Zenitsu to introduce Nezuko to them bolts of electricity come from Zenitsu's corner.
Yua herself takes her Katana standing up since Zenitsu Aura was going crazy. The boy was more than pissed off at Tanjiro.
“You… Just who do you think you are?!”, yells Zenitsu at the red-haired boy who is totally lost.”So you’ve been travelling with a girl this cute? With a girl this cute in tow, day after day, you’ve been travelling, and you’ve been on cloud nine the whole time, huh?”
“Zenitsu, it’s not like –”
“Agatsuma, calm down for a second-”
Both get ignored as Zenitsu screams: “Give me back all the blood I shed!! I… Listen, I… I didn’t give it my all just so you could spend time in la-la land, making out with a girl! That’s not why I got pummeled and kicked by that weird boar, right?!”
“Zenitsu, calm down! What’s gotten into you all of a sudden?”
“He is thinking with his dick, Kamado-San, that’s the problem!”
“Demon Slayer Corps is not something you’d join for fun! Guys like you gotta be purged! Immediately! Come to think of it, there’s also the crime of thwarting my marriage and sending Shouichi home.”
With a stone-cold face, the blond unsheathes his Katana.
“Purged immediately! Don’t ever underestimate the Corps!!”
Zenitsu charges at Tanjiro. Good thing Yua saw that from a mile coming and get’s between them.
Her Katana and Zenitsu Katana smash together.
Before anyone can say or do something, with swiftness, Yua's upper hand Zenitsu takes his Katana from him.
“Agatsuma!”, she growls and looks quite scary with two Katana in her hands and a dark Aura around her. “The Demon Girl is Tanjiro's relative! I see their bond clearly through their Aura so stop thinking with your dick or I cut it off!”
Suddenly all the bravery he had vanished from Zenitsu and he shrieked scarred holding his precious dick. He heard loud and clearly from Yua that she was serious about cutting it off!
Tanjiro also smelled how close Yua was to emasculating Zenitsu and tried his best to calm everybody down.
Meanwhile, Nezuku just cutely title her head. She doesn’t know who this people are with her brother, but the young woman has pretty braided hair.
She likes it.

I always forget to tell, but I made a drawing of how I image the reader aka. Inari, of course in the end you decide what to look like, but I just wanted to give you an idea.
Here is the link: https://www.deviantart.com/empressofthesun/art/Reader-The-Fox-Hashira-971290363
Chapter 3: Foxes and Butterflies
One good thing about living as long as you did, was that you collected a lot of money in your time as Demon Slayer.
80 years ago you bought this beautiful Mansion with a big garden. It was located in the same neighborhood as the Butterfly Mansion.
Humming a little melody under your breath you worked in your grand and beautiful garden. Butterflies and bees fly around, and birds chirping their songs.
It was an oasis of serenity.
You put the sunflowers in the basket beside you and then stood up. Cracking you spin, letting out a relaxed breath.
You were grateful for any day in the sun you could spend. Since you got immunity from it your cursed existence as a demon was more tolerable.
You could pretend more that you were human. Forgotten for a while all the gruesome things you have done in your long life.
Yet you could never truly forget.
The hunger for flesh and blood in you was strong.
You put a hand on your stomach and picked up your basket full of sunflowers.
Time to go over to the Butterfly Mansion and get your weekly blood supply from Shinobu.
Still humming you enter your mansion, going to your bedroom. You needed to change your dirty work kimono into something more presentable.
You didn’t know why…but you had the urge to look extra pretty today.
It was totally not because you could meet Tanjiro in the Butterfly Mansion and wanted to make a good impression on him.
No.
Perish that thought.
Anyway, you took a bath, styled your hair into an elaborate bun with a pretty cherry blossom hairclip, and put your white kimono with cherry blossoms and red Obi on.
When you also sprayed some perfume on yourself, you had to admit you were going beyond, what one did, when one visited a friend.
You looked ready for a date.
You made a grimace in the mirror.
Okay…maybe you wanted to impress Tanjiro. The boy hadn’t left your thoughts or more his eyes, these pretty red orbs, haunted you any waking hour.
This was not good.
You couldn’t start something with a human.
Casual flings were more your style, but this somehow, strangely felt more powerful.
You shook your head and took your basket of sunflowers.
Enough.
You just wanted to look pretty.
Nothing more.
And if Tanjiro blushed seeing you and got shy, you would eat it up but do nothing about it.
With that in mind, you made your way to Butterfly Mansion. You knocked and after a few seconds, Shinubo herself opened the door.
“Inari-Chan, good afternoon!”
“Good afternoon, Shinobu-Chan! May I enter?”
“Of course, of course, here for your blood supply.”
You nodded.
Shinobu smiled and lead you to her Examination Room/Office. There she gave you in another basket your blood bags, while you handed her one of your sunflowers.
This made your friend happy and she promised to find a vase as soon as possible.
You made a bit of small talk till Shinobu rightfully pointed out: “Ara, Ara, Inari-Chan, you look ready to go on a date who is the lucky man? Or woman?”
“I just felt like dressing up.”, you mumbled fighting your blush. “How are the Kamado Siblings?”
You didn’t like the knowing glint in the Insect Hashira’s eyes.
“Oh Tanjiro already started rehabilitation training and Nezuko sleeps most times of the day. Their friends Agatsuma Zenitsu and Hashibira Inosuke are healing as well and I’m sure Inosuke can join soon Tanjiro.”
“Oh, that’s good. Do you mind, if I look after Nezuko for a second and maybe greet the girls?”
Of course, this was okay and Shinobu lead you to Nezuko’s room before she return to her office with a cheeky wink in your direction. You stuck out your tongue at her.
Little brat!
You knocked at the door, calling out to Nezuko that you would be coming in. The room was dark, but you could see clearly.
Night Vision was only one of the perks of being practically half-fox.
Nezuko Box stand in the middle of the room, slowly it opened and the younger demon picked out her head, making a cute sound.
“Hello Nezuko-Chan.”, you cooed, stepping closer to her. “It’s me, Inari. I wanted to see how you were doing.”
She was now fully out of the box. Cute, she was as tall as a child and made grappy hands in your direction.
You had more of a lifetime experience with babies, toddlers, and children to know what she wanted.
So you picked her up and twirled her around.
Her pretty laugh could warm even the coldest heart, you were sure.
“All good with you baby girl?”
Nezuko made an agreeing sound, hugging your neck.
“The girls treat you nice?”
You stopped spinning and sat down with her on the bed. She nodded cutely.
“Ah, that’s good. Your brother is okay too?”
She made an adorable coo noise in agreement.
Aww, you could just eat her up. Precious baby girl.
You kissed her forehead, which made her giggle. Then you hugged her closer to yourself and swayed back and forth.
Nezuko cooed again, snuggling closer to you and seeming to enjoy greatly the affection you gave her.
You started to tell her random things, while she answered back in coo or giggles.
You don’t know how much time passed, just sitting with her, telling her nothing and all, but you found yourself laying with her on the bed, stroking her hair. Nezuko was nodding off and with a yawn, you decide to take a quick nap as well.
It was comforting to be in her presence.
The sun warmed your back as you climbed up the mountain. Under your snowboots, the snow made a satisfied crunching noise.
Your love told you, that he would come to visit you in the village, yet it burned terribly been away from him.
You couldn’t wait till you finally would be married.
You reached the small hut, his family called their home, greeting warmly your future in-laws, as his mother told you, he was off chopping firewood.
You thanked her, walking up to your beloved.
His pretty dark red hair shone in the sunlight.
Been cheeky, you put your hands on his eyes and asked who it was.
You heard him laugh, pretending to think, till he said your name.
For this, you gave him a kiss on the cheek.
He turned around and you were lost in his otherwordly red eyes.
He smiled that soft smile that only was reserved for you, hugging you to himself.
A happy sign left you.
You could stay forever like this…
“Inari-Sama?”
Someone called you.
Sleepy you opened your eyes, yawing loudly.
Huh, what a strange dream you had. You wonder what that meant.
“Inari-Sama, is anything all right with you?”
Finally, you were awake enough to understand what was going on.
You were in Nezuko’s room in the Butterfly Mansion. The younger demon gripping your kimono, still asleep beside you in the bed and Tanjiro was standing beside it.
…Tanjiro?!
You couldn’t help but blush, careful to not disturb Nezuko, you sat up to greet him.
“Oh hello Tanjiro-Kun, you are finished with your rehabilitation training that is good.”
“Yes, I wanted to see after Nezuko. I’m surprised but happy to see you Inari-Sama.”, he told you shyly. Gosh, he was adorable! “I couldn’t thank you for how you stood up for us before the other Hashira and that you protected Nezuko. Thank you.”
He bowed, and you wave it away, saying it was nothing and to please drop the Sama. You were fine with Inari.
The smile Tanjiro gave you should be illegal.
To not turn into a puddle of goo under his feet, you stroked Nezuko’s beautiful hair. The younger demon cooed in her sleep.
“It makes me happy, seeing Nezuko like this. She likes you very much Inari-San.”, told you Tanjiro, while he stroked his sister’s cheek.
“I like her very much too…it’s nice to have met another good demon like me. You can imagine my existence is really lonely.”, you admitted, fixing your bun.
So much to look ready for a date. Your hair was a catastrophe.
Tanjiro gave you such a heartful look, that you swore your heart stood still for a second. It was like he understood you.
“I’m sorry, Inari-San, but I’m also happy that you are here. I think it does Nezuko good having around another good demon.”
“Mmh, yeah.”
You looked at each other shyly with blushing cheeks.
Suddenly Nezuko sat up and would have hit your chin if you didn’t dodge.
“Oh, you are awake Nezuko!”, said Tanjiro happy.
His sister made now grappy hands at him and he took her in his arms.
Your heart was a pool of goo, seeing the two siblings interact with each other.
The older brother told his sister about his day, while she made cute noise in understanding.
You wished you had a camera to immortalize this sweet moment forever.
Sadly it was probably time to go for you. You still wanted to check on the girls.
So you stand up, fixing your kimono.
“I will leave you now.”, you told the Kamado siblings. Both looked devasted. “I still haven’t checked up on Kanao, Aoi, and the little girls. I didn’t mean to fall asleep with Nezuko.”
“Oh, if you must…It was nice seeing you Inari-San.”
Nezuko made something like a wail, reaching her hands out to you. You took her from Tanjiro’s arms, hugging her and kissing her chubby cheeks.
“Don’t worry, Kit, I will visit soon. Be a good sister for your brother.”
The younger demon cooed in agreement, as you put her down on the floor.
You took your basket and gave her a sunflower.
“This is for you.”
She made a happy sound, hugging the flower to herself.
“You are really kind, Inari-San.”
You gave Tanjiro a tiny smile, giving him also a sunflower. He blushed crimson red, staring at it in confusion and then at you.
“A sweet boy like you deserves a flower also.”
Where you flirting?
Probably.
Before you made more of a fool out of yourself you said your goodbye to the Kamado siblings and searched for Kanao, Aoi, and the girls.
Only Nezuko saw how her brother was red like a tomato, touching the sunflower like a precious thing, with a lovestruck smile on his face.
You were back home drinking a blood bag, while you read a book.
You should be sleeping, but the nap you took with Nezuko, had left you wide awake.
Not that you slept a lot.
You slept because you could, not because you needed it.
Your record was five hours per day.
Slurping the blood down, you wonder about the strange dream you had.
You never really dreamed.
And when you did it was a chaotic mess with no sense, yet this dream had been so clear, like a memory.
But you didn’t understand it for the life of you.
The boy you dreamed about, who had looked so much like Tanjiro, yet didn’t at the same time, was a mystery.
You never had seen him in your life.
Or at least you don’t remember it.
It was frustrating to have forgotten so much about your human life! Not for the first time you cursed out the Demon King.
One day, you would make him pay for all he did to you and your family.
Someday soon, hopefully.
You didn’t know if you could make it another century with Muzan still free to do as he pleased.
But maybe with Tanjiro and Nezuko on your side, it was finally time to end him.
Who knows?
You hoped with all your heart that this way you were going….you wouldn’t lose any more beloved people.
Yet you know deep down that it would be impossible. Some people would probably die if they faced Muzan.
You put your book on the night table and then began to pray.
“Goddess Inari, please help and guide us. Protect us in this war that will soon happen. Take my life for the life of my beloved people. Better me than them.”

Ramble, Ramble, Ramble
I need to get something out of my chest.
I hate sometimes being an author.
Stories that you write with love and put a lot of thought into it get ignored and stories you thought randomly about at 3 a.m. are freacking well-loved, that even after you finish them, they still get comments or likes. *side-eyes Isekai'd as Chloe*
I noted also Reader Insert more loved than stories with OCs, I ask you why? WHY?
For us authors OCs are our kids, why don't you like my child, but as soon it's in the reader's perspective it's hot shit.
Currently, I want to write for Maiden of the Moon because I love my moon bunny Yua, I want to tell her story so much, but besides one person, no one commented on it.
Then we have The Fox and the Sun, which is really Mary-Sue if you think about it, Local Ex-Upper Demon is a Demon Slayer, overpowered, and will date sunshine child Tanjiro more at 11 p.m.
I bet if I made Maiden of the Moon a Reader too it would have been more liked.
What is this hate with OCs?
AN OC IS AN INVENTED CHARACTER OF A FAN AND THEY COULD NEVER DESTROY YOUR SACRED CANON SINCE IT'S A GODDAMN FAN CHARACTER IN A GODDAMN FANFICTION, A STORY WRITTEN BY A FAN WITH ABSOLUT NO POWER OVER THE ANIME/MANGA/MOVIE/TVSHOW/CARTON/COMIC/GAME/ETC.
I'm just...I don't get it!
I always loved OC, because, let's be real, most canon pairings suck, or canon is so stupid in a lot of things and needs someone to call out the bullcrap or canon ended so bad some needs to fix it.
I'm the strange one?
Like I want to really hear why Reader-Inserts can be the most Mary-Sue thing ever and all will eat it up, but a well-thought OC gets hate because they get shipped with a canon character, they change the storyline completely, they are the hero or etc.?
What is the difference?
What?
Also, pro-tip from an author if you love a story.....THEN COMMENT ON IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AUTHORS NEED COMMENTS LIKE FOOD, HOW THE HECK SHOULD WE KNOW YOU LOVE OUR STORY AND WANT MORE IF YOU DON'T TELL US. A LITTLE SMILEY-EMOJI IS ENOUGH. WE ARE AUTHORS WE WILL INTERPRET EVEN INCORRECT KEYSMASH AS SOMETHING POSITIVE.
Well more I don't have to say.
Have a nice day/night!
The Fox and the Sun
Demon and Demon Slayer in one? A paradox, but you were the living proof. For two good centuries, you served the Demon Slayer Corps as the Fox-Hashira, only in your mind your revenge against the Demon King, who had made you a demon. It took a kind boy with the sun in his soul to remind yourself of your humanity. Fox-Demon!ReaderXTanjiro Kamado
Chapter 2: Good or Bad?
Your prayers were been answered.
Two of the Master’s daughters, you think it’s Nichika and Hinaki, announce the arrival of Oyakata-Sama.
With the help of his daughters, he was led to the edge of the veranda, while he greeted you all calmly and welcoming, being glad that you all were fine.
All Hashira’s got in line and kneeled before him.
You saw how Shinazugawa formally smashed poor Tanjiro’s face into the dirt so that he kneeled also.
You suppressed a growl.
The boy didn’t deserve this treatment.
“I am pleased to see you in good health as well, Master.”, greeted the white-haired Hashira. “I fervently pray for your continued good fortune.”
“Thank you, Sanemi.”
“If I may, Master… Before we start the Hashira Meeting, would you mind enlightening us about this swordsman, Tanjiro Kamado, accompanied by a demon?”
The master gave you all an apologetic smile. “Right. I apologize for startling you all. But first, before I tell you my decision on this matter…Inari-San, can you please tell us all your story?”
Not only you blinked surprised, but your Hashira colleagues and Tanjiro let out also surprised sounds.
“I think we all need a refresher and young Tanjiro can benefit from hearing it.”, added Oyakata-Sama.
You nodded, an order was an order, even if you did wonder why you should tell your story and began: “It happened exactly 340 years ago. I was a normal seventeen year old girl living my life. Then one night, all changed for me. The Demon King killed my family and turned me into a demon. I became like the Kitsune from our folktales, I was powerful, even so young. Kibutsuji called me his crown jewel. His best creation. For a good 100 years, I was under his rule. I…I killed and eat lots of people, sometimes whole villages. I know it was wrong, but my bloodlust was so strong. But slowly over the years, I regained more of my humanity. I got so strong that I finally could flee from Kibutsuji. I roomed this land, only eating humans who were considered monsters. Murders, rapists, pedophiles. I felt I did something good. Then one day I stumbled over an old shrine where the fox goddess Inari was worshipped. The Miko’s who lived there were old and frail. It didn’t stop robbers to enter the sanctuary and trying to steal the treasures. I protected the woman, killing the man. The Miko’s thought of me as a godsend by Inari herself, begging me to stay with them, which a did for a few years. Then one day the Master of the Demon Slayer Corps of that time and two of his strongest Hashira appeared. The Master begged that I joined their cause, which I did since I want to personal put Kibutsuji’s head on a stake. It was not simple to be accepted by the other Hashira’s. I still needed to eat human flesh to survive, the sun still burned me. It took nearly 100 years till I was so respected in the Corps that no one doubted my devotion. I saw a lot of Masters and Hashiras come and go, helped to raise future Demon Slayers, and worked on myself to reign more of my humanity. For a good 50 years now, I only need blood to survive, which comes from volunteers. 10 years ago I managed to finally master the ability to walk in the sun. I came a long way from Kibutsuji pet monster Kitsune to now being the proud Hashira Inari. And that’s my story.”
“I want you all to remember Inari-San story.”, advised Oyakata-Sama. “My Ancestor saw the potential of having a good demon on our side. Like how I see potential in Tanjiro and Nezuko Kamado. Both will be Demon Slayer and I want you to accept my decision.”
It was so silent you could hear a needle drop.
Curious you glanced at the other Hashira’s. A lot seemed to struggle with this decision, but they also KNOW you for ages, some of them you babysit as children, they knew a demon could be good and control themselves.
On the other hand, this was you and Nezuko they didn’t know.
Himejima found first his words: “Even if it’s what you desire, Master, I cannot agree to it. Inari-Sama is a special case, a rarity. She has more than one lifetime of experience and self-control on her side than the young demon girl.”
“I’m flamboyantly opposed as well!”, agreed Tengen. “Inari-Senpai was once one of the twelve Kizuki, she is different from other demons. I can’t see another demon being like her.”
“I shall do whatever it is you wish, Oyakata-Sama!”, said Mitsuri.
At least one was for Nezuko and Tanjiro.
“I’m fine either way… I’m going to forget soon, anyway.”, deadpanned Tokitou.
Another one on their side, maybe? Well, better than nothing.
“I won’t trust them. I won’t trust them.”, hissed Iguro formally. “In the first place, I loathe demons. It was hard enough to come to respect Inari-Senpai and trust her. And she has centuries of self-control under her belt.”
“Although I respect you with all my heart, that’s an incomprehensible notion, Master! I oppose it with everything I’ve got! Inari-Senpai is the only demon we can trust.”, proclaimed Rengoku.
“The Demon Slayer Corps’ mission is to annihilate demons.”, reminded Shinazugawa you all. “I request that you penalize both Kamado and Tomioka!”
Oyakata-Sama turned to you.
“Inari-San, you are on both sides. Tell me…what do you think about Kamado Nezuko.”
You licked your lips, carefully selecting the words you wanted to say.
“Kamado Nezuko…is different. That is clear. She could detect that I’m a demon, even if I was using my Blood Demon Art. She could smell it on me.”
You formally felt how the other Hashira were losing their shit after that revelation. No one besides Muzan or an Upper Moon should have this power.
You continued.
“She didn’t react hostile at me, let me even pick her up and carry her. Nezuko is intelligent, she doesn’t seem to have any bloodlust. I think…she is more like me than we think…no she is even better than me if she really doesn’t need human flesh or blood to survive.”
“Your conclusion, Inari-San?”
“Oyakata-Sama, if this is all right with you…I would take responsibility for Nezuko and Tanjiro Kamado. I’m even ready to put my life on the line. If Nezuko will eat a single human, then you can kill me with her. I won’t fight.”
That made all Hashira really lose their nerves.
“Inari-Chan, no!”, screamed Mitsure, tears in her eyes.
“Senpai, that’s crazy, we can’t lose you!”, shouted Rengoku.
You know he had a soft spot for you. When his father was a Hashira and he was a young boy, you would often play with him and even babysit him. You are pretty sure you even changed some diapers of his.
“Inari-Senpai, that’s dumb and so not like you. You really want to put your life at stake for another demon?”, wonder Obanai.
Before it really could get out of control Oyakata-Sama wanted you all to hear this letter from the former Water Hashira and your old friend Sakonji Urokodaki.
Hinaki read aloud how Tanjiro should be allowed to be accompanied by his demon sister. That Nezuko had resilient mental strength and has not lost her human emotions. Even in a starved state, she never devoured humans, and this has held true more than two years later. Although the situation seems somewhat far-fetched, it is an indisputable fact. Then came the bomb in which your old friend, Tomioka, and even Tanjiro promised to commit ritual suicide, if Nezuko should kill a human.
As you promised a few minutes ago. All right, you said they could kill you too, but it was the same thing in a way.
Your nose tickled with the salty fragrance of tears. Tanjiro was crying silent and thankful tears. He seemed so glad and relieved that at least three people were on his and Nezuko’s side.
He was a good young man, you felt it.
“So what if they commit ritual suicide and Inari-Senpai lets us kill her?”, growled Shinazugawa. “If you want to die, then rot for all I care! It’s no guarantee! Not by a long shot!”
Rengoku wanted to say something, probably agreeing with him, but you calmly turned to Shinazugawa and said ice-cold: “And yet you trust me?”
“W-What?”
“Kamado Nezuko has never devoured human flesh, where I, I eat and killed more than a thousand, and still to this day I need blood. She is better than me, yet you and anybody else can’t wait for to decapitate her and her brother who loves her so dearly and would do anything for her.”, you scolded.
Nearly everyone looked ashmead.
They were based, they knew that.
Was it because they grow up with you as a parental/sisterly figure or you earned their trust.
They weren’t thinking rationally, but with their emotions, and they were in chaos.
Only Tanjiro looked at you like…you were a divine being, coming to Earth to help him and his sister.
You fought off a blush and pointedly didn’t look in his direction. These dark red eyes with heartful tears in them were too much to handle.
“The fact is that Nezuko has refrained from devouring humans for more than two years, and also that there are three people and one demon risking their lives for her.”, sums up Oyakata-Sama. “To reject this notion, those who reject it must offer an even more convincing argument.”
Shinazugawa gave an angry grumble.
“Do you all have the will to do so?”
No one said anything, and that’s when Oyakata-Sama let the next bomb drop: “Also, there’s something I’d like to relay to you, my children. Tanjiro here has met Kibutsuji.”
You Hashiras being shocked was the understatement of the century.
Your chin meets the floor. Tanjiro meet the fucking asshole and lived?
What?!
“No, impossible!”, yelled Tengen. “After Inari-Senpai joined us 200 years ago no one has ever crossed paths with him?!”
“Is the bastard still high and mighty as ever? I hope you didn’t battle him. He probably has a new hidey-hole, did you see it?”, you shoot your questions at him, like bullets from a pistol.
The others shoot their own question at him, like what he looked liked, what his powers were, and so on.
Poor Tanjiro was clearly overwhelmed with you all shouting questions at him so Oyakata-Sama called you all to order.
“Kibutsuji has sent pursuers after Tanjiro. Though his purpose may simply be to silence him, now that Kibutsuji’s given himself away for the first time, I don’t want to let go. I also believe something’s happening to Nezuko that Kibutsuji never saw coming. Not unlikely with what happened with Inari-San. One of his own Upper Moon betraying him must have shocked him, even if it was so long ago. Can you try to understand?”
Boarheaded Shinazugawa refused to understand the Masters reasons. He was so fixed in his mindset that all demons needed to be killed, that he couldn’t see another way. Not that you could blame him, after what he experienced as a child.
Then he actually slices his arm to let the blood drop on Nezuko’s box to coax her out!
Good thing you weren’t hungry or else you would probably start sucking.
Of course, Nezuko comes not out, hello sunlight, which Obanai reminds Sanemi, and the white-haired Hashira jumps into the mansion and then again stabs Nezuko through the box.
That’s when you see red.
One second you look human, the next your whisker marks get deeper, your hair turns orange, fox ears and a tail grow and you know your eyes turn red.
With a growl you jump between Sanemi and Nezuko’s box, holding in an iron grip his Katana.
“That’s enough, Sanemi! As your Senpai I say: Stand down!”, you growl in your demonic voice.
It’s deeper more animalist than your human one.
This all took place in a few seconds, so of course, all are like statues and don’t know what to do.
They know not to cross you when you show your true self. You were a one-woman army, worth a thousand Demon Slayers.
Nonetheless, Sanemi gets his bearing back.
“Senpai, you would face off against one of your comrades for a demon?!”
“She is an innocent being, I won’t let you egg her on. You practically play with fire here!”
“Innocent being?! That’s a demon and I just want to prove to you all how dangerous she really is!”
That’s when you all hear how the box opens. Growling, with saliva running down her muzzle Nezuko stands up from it.
Fast she grips your arm and puts you behind her.
What is she…?
“What is happening?”, ask Oyataka-Sama his daughters.
“The younger demon seems to protect Inari-Sama. She put herself between Inari-Sama and Shinazugawa-Sama.”, responds Hinaki.
So you aren’t imagining things.
“Come on demon attack me.”, taunts her Sanemi. “You didn’t like me yelling at one of your kind and you want my blood. Show everyone your true self.”
It seems like an eternity passes, but Nezuko just turns away from Sanemi and hugs you.
You feel her shaking in your arms, she is fighting against her bloodlust, but she is winning.
“Good girl.”, you coo at her, hugging her back. “You are a good girl.”
Again the Master asks what happened and both his daughter tell him what transpired.
“So now, it’s been proven that Nezuko won’t attack humans, right?”, declares Oyakata-Sama.
Well, no one can argue anymore.
In the end, Tanjiro and Nezuko were now accepted as Demon Slayers and their quest was to defeat the Twelve Kizuki and the Demon King himself.
Tanjiro promised that they would do their best.
Then Shinobu pointed out that he needed medical attention, so the Kakushi arrived to take Tanjiro and Nezuko.
You helped Nezuko back into her box, giving her forehead a kiss and a promise that you would see her soon. She made cute agreeing noises at you.
Never seeing how Tanjiro looked at you, a fox-demon, been so kind and good to his sister, filling his heart with new emotions.
After the Kamado’s Siblings were gone with the Kakushi, the Hashira Meeting could take place.
You switched back into your human form and follow after the other to the meeting room.
Oyakata-Sama with his two daughters by his side sits before you. The room was dark only illuminated with lamps and you all sit in seiza before him.
You talked about how the quality of the Demon Slayer has gone bad, how this era changed so much, and how the Demon King let this chaos happen with his Lower Moon to hide his traces.
The Master let all, besides you, go, with the words that you were the best Demon Slayer since the Feudal Era.
You expected a scolding for acting out of line today, showing your true self, and commanding Sanemi, but the Master just wanted your honest opinion.
You were the oldest, you have seen death and life come and go.
Was the way the Demon Slayer Corps took the right one?
You only said this.
“Oyakata-Sama. I think we found valuable assets in Tanjiro and Nezuko Kamado. These two are something special. They are full…of sunlight. And sunlight is the best against demons.”
