Been busy with stuff lately, but what do you think of Hashira centric arc ideas?
Set during the Entertainment District arc, a few days before the fight against Uppermoons 6.
Two Hashiras -- Obanai and Mitsuri -- are sent to investigate a village rumoured to have a demon hiding in it. The villagers have that sacrificial ritual that hasn't been done for a few decades and suddenly resumed back out of nowhere.
Obanai finds a familiar face of his remaining cousin during his stay there, and to his horror, discovers that she was the cause of this.
A demon had captured her children and made a bargain for her to sacrifice other people in their stead. She manipulated the villagers in doing the rituals again until the demon is satisfied and will return her children. Obanai has to settle the dispute with the villagers who think he's trying to bother the ritual and endangers their lives while Mitsuri goes to save the hostages the demon has a hold onto.
A stand off between Mitsuri and the demon. She manages to defeat it, but not without some costs when the people she was trying to protect didn't listen to her warning to stay put. About three people died, and one of them was the cousin's child.
" Why do you have to go and ruin everything again?! " The cousin screams at Obanai as she clutches her dead child's body. " You've always been the one to cause disaster! All you had to do was stay put! LOOK AT WHAT YOU DID!!! "
Obanai can only stare and stare and says nothing, even if inside he knows that he should defend himself at least, to do something to make up for when she blamed him in the past. But his mouth remains sealed.
Later, when the villagers chase away the Hashiras due to still in confusion belief, Obanai and Mitsuri get to talk a bit.
He doesn't reveal much, just something along the lines that the woman was his cousin, and he wasn't even considered human in his family's eyes. That his cousin blames him for everything, for getting everyone killed, for not just to stay in his role.
" I am tainted with dirty blood, " he says in a soft breath, " this I will carry until I die and reborn. "
Mitsuri wants to tell him that his family doesn't define what he is, that he's not them, and that he's not dirty. In her eyes, he's such a strong and amazing person fighting for the innocence.
But as she keeps her gaze on him, and he doesn't even look at her since the moment they left the village, she realizes that it's not easy. Those comforting words would fall into deaf ears.
Perhaps her words would be listened, but not accepted.
So she takes his hand gently, noting the flinch as his response but no withdrawing.
" You're not alone, Iguro-san. I'll always support you. "
And at that moment, Obanai knows that he really doesn't deserve Mitsuri at all.
(he wants to love her, to show how much she means to him but she deserves so much better than what he is. She wants to love him, wants to give her heart but how can she, if he refuses it?)
So glad Nezuko gets to be loose. My girl needs to release her steam once in a while 😊
I am working on my uni final project so I am very busy at the moment
I made a mistake, 2003 Donnie is a demon in disguise, he does no harm but takes no crap, thank you for correcting me
I don't remember that much from 2003 Donnie, but compared to the other version of him, he's pretty less chaotic than them.
2012 Donnie blows up his lab, 2014/2016 Donnie jumps out of a plane, 2018 Donnie is thirsty for homicide.
I crave for Transformers and eldritch horror
(not me imagining a scenario of an ancient supernatural eldritch horror being taunting Optimus of how earthlings view Cybertronians as virus that's affecting the earth condition --)
Lionfish based merman Kyojuro and Betta fish based Akaza! (Ft Inosuke the same fish as Akaza but he has split/double tail while Akaza has crowntail)

Mitsuri would have ask more, but she said nothing upon seeing the dark expression on Gyomei's face.

Another KNY drabble with Obanai but it just came across my mind that some people might think Obanai hates all women and is misogynist -- SHUT UPPP IT'S CALLED TRAUMA FOR A REASON.
I think the correct way to describe how Obanai acts around women would be more 'uncomfortable'. He doesn't dislike them because he thinks men are superior and women are less than men yada yada -- he dislikes women because he was raised in an all women family and treated like a sacrifice for a snake demon.
Hello?? Is that not traumatizing then idk what is. He was a baby even then and grew up in a cage with no contact of outside world! Obviously this caused him to be uncomfortable around women and tends to be awkward.
You know, actually, i really REALLY like that Obanai was saved by Shinjuro and this led him possibly to know Kyoujuro since they were young. Something about a boy that was so used to hypocrite people and then met someone that radiates genuine honesty so much it's baffling. I think that's why Obanai likes Kyoujuro, because everything about him is real and truthful.
The same applies with his attraction to Mitsuri, who has an easily readable expression so lying is not her best forte. Also with Sanemi, due to his unfiltered words.
(oh god Obanai saying Giyuu's face looks like a rat and that's why he doesn't like him is probably because it's hard to know what Giyuu is thinking, so automatically Obanai hates him)
Ah I just thought of Shinobu with her emotions masking! Obanai probably hates her at first, feeling SUPER wary of her cause she's all smiles and sweet and he just has instant flashback AKDNSKSN.
Oh my god. Enemies to besties with Obanai and Shinobu. Besties that talk about swords cause their sword structures are unique. Obanai allowing Shinobu to extract Kaburamaru's poison for test. Shinobu giving special permission for Obanai bringing in Kaburamaru into the butterfly estate cause she knows he keeps his snake friend clean and healthy.
Shinobu, without realising it, helps Obanai to interact with girls more after spending time with each other. Obanai, offering support and encouragement for Shinobu when she feels insecure of her lack of physical strength.
(I'd say enemies to besties cause Obanai hates people that masked their intentions with sweet words and would word something like 'I hate fake women like you: and Shinobu misunderstood his hostility as a superior feeling against women then the aggressive tension between them is WILD until maybe they had a talk about their pasts)
Obanai appreciates honest people y'all, in a nutshell.
I just want to write a Gyomei x OC fanfic how did I end up searching about wildlife protection and Japan Sign Language and Netherlands
Oh wait his love interest is half France, half Dutch, mute and works as animal control officer.
Kinda scared to write this one cause despite the many research I've done, I am still confused whether CITES and Animal Control Officer is the same thing and applies in Japan. Help??
Belle should be participating working with a Hashira as a Kiroku, but she redraw at the last moment.
Lmao, yes, Belle still alive. She's not a demon, is currently working with the Ubuyashiki, and I'll tell more in the future.
Kiroku means " report "
Belle is using sign language, but if I am doing it incorrectly, please inform me!
Astra and Sun, surrounded by a sea of children, moving backwards in the same rhythm and didn't notice the space between them closing up until they turned around and had their faces against each other --
-- or more like slamming into each other.
Sun panicked, torn between concern over her and the realisation that it was technically an unintentional kiss; his first kiss at that. It didn't help that Moon was howling with laughter nearby, and only did they notice the increasing panic cries of the children around them did they tip their heads towards Astra.
She had a hand over her mouth, red liquid seeping through her fingers and a 𝙛𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙤𝙤𝙩𝙝 rolled over in her palm.
Sun and Moon almost had a short circuit.
After a session of trying not to panic, calming the children and trying to convince them that everything was okay, the day ended with mentally exhausted celestial theme daycare animatronics bidding goodbye to the final kid as the door closed, and them turning to look at Astra who had been sitting behind the security desk.
" That was quite an experience. " Astra spoke up first, cutting in Sun who was about to deliver his apologies. The animatronics stared at her nonchalant face, noting that she hadn't said anything after having a tooth fell out of her mouth.
Her heterochromia eyes stare back at them, unchanging but yet...
" I hope the next kiss won't cost me another tooth. "
