Okay... so here's the deal.
Uzui sent his three wives to the Flower District/Red Light District to investigate about a demon that was supposedly lurking there.
Uzui had lost contact with them so he was sending y/n, Tanjiro, Inosuke and Zenitsu to go find em and make sure they were safe.
However...
"No."
Y/n's voice was firm as she held up a hand, "I'm not letting you lay a hand on my face. Sorry, Uzui-san."
"Huh?"
"I mean..." y/n looked warily at her three friends who had all fallen victim to Uzui's so called flamboyant skills, "Look what you did to those three."
"They look like clowns." Shiori said flatly before glancing up at the pensive looking y/n, "But then again... it is a red light district. We wouldn't want anything happening to you, so you've gotta look ugly."
"You think that'll stop people?"
"True... maybe we should have her dress as a guy."
"Just leave it to me, I've got it."
"Oh my... these, are some ugly girls."
Ugly? Ugly is an understatement.
Tanjiro, the one in the middle, was posing as a girl named Sumiko!
Zenitsu was under the name Zenko!
And Inosuke... Inosuke was Inoko.
All three of them looked as though a five year old had been permitted to throw makeup on their face. It was honestly disgusting, extremely painful to look at.
However, because of Uzui's dazzling looks, Sumiko was hired and tossed to the the Tokito House while the others continued on.
He had let his hair down and gotten rid of that weird 🍑 paint on his face. Y/n found him much easier to look at like this, considering he usually made her eyes hurt when she looked at him.
"You guys are worthless." Uzui grumbled as they wandered along, "I can only sell you all for cheap! And Y/n!"
Y/n, who had been trailing after them silently, flinched a little bit, "Huh?"
"WHY ARE YOU STILL WEARING THAT!?"
"It's not as bad as the oni one..."
"I KNOW BUT WHY!?"
"If there's a demon here, I'd rather not let it see my face." y/n stated, voice soft, "I appreciate your hard work, but I don't want to risk... uh, being seen."
The girl now adorned a kitsune mask rather than her favored oni mask. Uzui had done some pretty impressive work, making her face look as though it'd been severely scarred, but y/n still insisted on putting on a mask.
The scarring was fake and he'd warned that too much wear and tear would make it fall right off.
As for clothes, she wore a simple dark kimono that almost looked purple with a white mist design on it in addition to a dark colored obi. Apparently, she'd been working on it whenever Sanemi banned her from going on solo missions.
"I'll never understand you." Uzui sighed before glancing at Zenitsu, "And you, are you mad just because I nade you dress up as a girl? Remember, you promised to do whatever I say."
'I'm not upset about dressing up as a girl, it's your face that's pissing me off!' Zenitsu thought angrily.
"Hey! There's a lot of people gathering over there!" Inosuke shouted, pointing and tugging on the sleeve of y/n's kimono.
They all looked over curiously to where a bunch of people were gathered. Amidst the crowd, y/n spotted a beautiful woman.
'Pretty.' y/n thought simply.
"Ah, it's an Oiran Parade." Uzui hummed, "That's Koinatsu Oiran from the Tokito House."
"Tokito..." y/n echoed, "Ah, isn't that the one we dropped Tanjiro off at?"
She had a very gentle face.
She was gorgeous, too!
"She's going to go greet one of her customers." Uzui explained to them.
"IS THAT YOUR WIFE!???" Zenitsu screeched, "IS THAT GORGEOUS WOMAN YOUR WIFE!? AND YOU HAVE THREE??!!!! ARE THEY ALL THIS BEAUTIFUL!?"
"SHE'S NOT MY WIFE!!!" Uzui shouted as y/n struggled to hold him back in order to keep Zenitsu from getting punched.
"She's walking real slow." Inosuke commented, "If she were in the mountains, she'd be dead by now."
Y/n froze, "A-Ah... Inoko-"
Inosuke scowled, "What."
Y/n shakily pointed behind him.
"L-Look..."
Yeah, that.
"Excuse me sir, I'd like to take this girl in." the scary woman said, "I'm part of the Ogimoto House..."
Y/n stopped listening.
Next thing she knew, a puzzled looking Inosuke was being taken away while Uzui waved to him.
Oh yeah, y/n and Zenitsu were the only two remaining at this point.
"You know you can't avoid going to one of the houses, right?" Uzui reminded y/n.
She nodded, "I know..."
Zenitsu stopped functioning when y/n reached out and clung to the sleeve of his kimono.
"But I left Zenitsu behind once before. I'm not going to do it again." y/n stated.
Zenitsu lifted a hand to his mouth, eyes sparkling with tears, "Y/n-chan..."
~~~ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ•°*
Y/n and Zenitsu ended up at the Kyougoku house together, after y/n very firmly made it clear that she had no intentions of leaving him behind.
As of now, she was silently watching Zenitsu play the Shamisen while trying her best to ignore the stares...
She was unconsciously aware of how the women were whispering about how good Zenitsu was with the Shamisen despite being ugly asf.
They were also expresses curiosity about y/n's mask which was to be expected.
"I wonder if she's pretty."
"Maybe she's ugly?"
"Oh yeah, so she wears a mask!"
"The guy she was with said that she got into a lot of trouble in her hometown because of her face. Maybe she's prettier than Warabihime Oiran!"
"Shhh!!! Don't say that! She'll be angry!"
Y/n blinked, 'Oh?'
She'd suddenly became acutely aware of a presence nearby, one that seemed to be pressing down on her.
It felt as though someone were glaring at her, trying to intimidate her into submission.
Despite that, this pressure was nothing.
She'd experienced worse.
'Still, I don't like how any of this feels. I should stay close to Zenitsu as much as I can. I don't wanna know what'll happen if either of us get caught off guard on our own.'

- y/n was pretty impressed with the fake scarring and showed it off to Sanemi who freaked out at first
