The villagers came running to you, their faces full of panic and worry.
"YOUNG Y/N!!! Are you okay?! " one of them cried, kneeling beside you.
You took a deep breath, trying not to pass out from the pain. Your body felt like it had been tossed off a cliff, twice.
"Ugh..." you groaned, clutching your side as a wave of pain hit.
Just then, Tanjiro and Nezuko came running over. Tears were already in Tanjiro's eyes.
"NEZUKO IS ALIVE, Y/N!! " he shouted, completely breaking down.
"H...Hey... Y/n..." Nezuko said weakly, her voice barely above a whisper.
Without thinking, you threw your arms around her, even though your muscles screamed in protest.
"TAKE ME TO SHINOBU'S I CAN'T DO THIS ANYMOREEEEE "you wailed. "MY LIMBS HURT. MY CHEST HURTS. MY HEAD HURTS. EVERYTHING HURTS!! "
Genya came running too, eyes wide with concern.
"Y/n, are you okay?! " he asked, trying to check your injuries.
You wanted to answer, but your eyes rolled back, and the world went black.
Luckily, Genya caught you before you hit the ground.

When you opened your eyes again, you heard a familiar voice.
"Y/n. Are you alright?" Muichiro asked, looking down at you with his head tilted slightly.
You blinked a few times. Your vision was blurry. "Huh? Where am I? Is this a damn dream? Because I swear-"
You finally saw clearly. You were on Genya's back, being carried like a rag doll.
"Oh. It's y'all," you said flatly.
Tanjiro puffed out his cheeks. "HUH?! What do you mean? You're not happy to see us?!"
"Whatever," you mumbled. Then you pulled something from behind you and tossed it lazily at him. "Also, here's your sword."
"Thanks, Muichiro for the sword!! " You smiled brightly.
You turned to Muichiro who started talking
"I should be the one thanking you."
He gave you a soft smile. "It's because of you I got my memories back. So... thank you."
Before you could say anything else a loud voice interrupted the moment.
"WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY UNFINISHED SWORD?!" Haganezuka shouted, stomping toward you liking like an angry raccoon.
He pointed dramatically at Tanjiro. "You! What did you do?!"
You slowly raised your hand. "Hey. It wasn't him. It was me."
Hotaru turned to you, blinking under his mask. For a moment, he looked... less murderous.
"Oh. Can I have it back then? "
You pointed at Tanjiro's hands. "There."
Just then, a blur of pink hair came flying at you.
"EVERYONE!!!! "Mitsuri screamed with joy, throwing her arms around you and nearly squeezing the soul out of your body. "WE DID IT!! "
You smiled through the slight suffocation and gently patted her head. "Good job, Mitsuri."
Her face turned as red as a tomato. "A-Am I still gonna get kisses and cuddles...? "
She slowly let go of you, looking down shyly and fidgeting with her fingers.
"Ah... yes, that..." You blinked, remembering your promise.
"Yes. Of course!! " you said, giving her a thumbs-up with your barely functioning arm.
You and Tanjiro were both sitting on a cartlike thing (I forgot what it was 😭).
"The village is destroyed... daym," you said looking around at the ruins.
"Yeah... Poor them..." he frowned slowly, his eyes full of sympathy.
Then you saw the village chief getting carried on someone's back.
"Thank you, sir! For giving us this!! " you called out with a smile.
The chief just chuckled and said,
"Mhm, we should be the ones thanking you! Plus, it'll be a shame this beautiful girlfriend of yours is leaving too."
He said that while eyeing you, and you just smiled nervously.
"I'm not his-"
"Yes sir!! I wish we could stay longer, but we can't! " Tanjiro quickly cut you off, beaming.
You stared at him.
"I didn't correct him" you muttered.
"You don't need to! " he replied with a cheerful smile, eyes sparkling.
Suddenly, while Tanjiro was talking to Haganezuka, some random ass dude,without his mask, walked up to you, who even was he?? You didn't remember him being in the anime.
"Hey there, miss" he said with a smile, clearly checking you out.
"Erm... hi? " you replied, clearly uncomfortable but trying to keep it polite.
"I noticed you from over there and just had to say, you're really beautiful! Are you, by any chance, single..? "he asked, full confidence.
You were just about to respond with a half-hearted "Uhm thanks and-"
But Tanjiro cut in like a knife through mochi.
"She's mine. So no."
Tanjiro's voice was firm, his brows furrowed, and he straight-up glared daggers at the guy.
You blinked.
Your face turned so red you might as well have been a tomato in denial.
"H-H-H-Huh??"
The guy visibly paled, muttered something that sounded like "my bad bro" and ran off like his life depended on it. Such a pussyy.
You turned to Tanjiro, still stunned.
"...Thanks?"
His usual sunny smile popped right back on like nothing happened.
"Awww, don't worry about it, Y/N!!" he chirped.
And just as you were about to mentally scream into the void, the girl pulling the carriage (I'll call it a carriage) stopped.
She pointed straight ahead, and you and Tanjiro both followed her finger.
A massive crowd was gathered in front of the carriage, waving, screaming, holding up signs, and oh greattt chanting your names like it was some concert.
"Y/N!! TANJIRO!! WE LOVE YOU!!"
"Y/N!! BREATHE ON ME!!"
"PLEASE MARRY ME !!!Y/N!!"
You blinked.
"...Yeahhh no. I ain't dealing with this shit."
With zero hesitation, you snatched the blindfold and earplugs right off the poor Kukashi girl and shoved them on like you were clocking out of reality.
Then you slid under the covers like a burrito.
"Wake me up when we arrive, alright...? "
And just like that, you flopped onto your side and passed out mid-eye-roll, ignoring Tanjiro's stunned little laugh as the screams outside grew louder.
You blinked your eyes open slowly, squinting at the soft light streaming through the window. Your body ached, but your brain felt foggier than usual.
"Uhm...where am I...?"
Before you could process anything else, a loud voice rang out
"Y/NNNN!!! YOU'RE AWAKE!!!"
Tanjiro practically launched himself at you like an excited puppy.
You smacked his head mid air.
"LET GOOOOO!!!! " you snapped wincing, "I'm still hurt, dumbass."
He immediately backed off, rubbing the spot you hit like a child who got scolded, eyes wide and teary.
You let out an exaggerated sigh. "You can't be this cute...Just come here, my baby."
Tanjiro lit up and carefully climbed onto the bed, wrapping his arms around you as gently as possible, resting his cheek on your shoulder.
"Where are the others? "you asked, voice still a bit raspy.
"Mhm, Kanao's not here she's on a mission. She'll be back soon! Same with Zenitsu and Inosuke!" he replied cheerfully.
You hummed and nodded, letting your eyes drift half closed again, his warmth making you relax just a little.
Your cozy little cuddle moment was abruptly ruined when a Kakushi barged into the room holding a tray.
"She's awake??" he gasped, eyes wide behind his mask.
You stared at him blankly. "Are you fucking blind?"
He flinched a little but didn't respond. You glanced down at the tray and immediately gasped.
"THAT'S FOR ME? COME HERE, SWEETIE!" you practically sang, going from grumpy to the happiest person on earth. You snatched the plate like it was sacred treasure and started devouring it with the joy of someone who hadn't eaten in a hundred years.
Tanjiro watched you with stars in his eyes like you were the most magical creature on Earth. That is, until the door slid open again.
Haganezuka walked in shaking slightly and absolutely radiating stress. He said nothing at first, just walked up with two swords one in each hand. Without a word he placed one sword in your hand and the other in Tanjiro's.
You blinked, mouth half full. "Huh? "
"For you" he muttered simply, then sat down at the edge of your bed like he hadn't just dropped a bomb.
You looked at the sword, then at him. Then at the sword again.
"...You didn't spit on this, right? "
He didn't respond. Just kept sitting there, slightly twitching.
Tanjiro held his sword reverently like it was the most important thing in the world.
You threw your arm around Haganezuka and gave a quick kiss to the side of his mask.
"Thanks!! " you said with a big smile.
He froze, turned red under his mask, and suddenly ran out of the room like his pants were on fire.
Tanjiro stared, his jaw tight.
"Tch..." he muttered.
You didn't even look at him. You went back to your food like nothing happened.
"Damn, this is tasty as hell?? " you said, already shoving more in your mouth.
Until the almost peaceful moment was shattered
CRASH!!!
Inosuke burst through the window like a cannonball, glass flying.
"YEHEHAHAHA?? Y/N IS AWAKE?? "he screamed, ripping off his boar mask mid-air and launching himself at you.
You choked on your food.
"INOSUKE! " the Kakushi screeched. "LADY KOCHO IS GONNA END YOU, YOU DUMBASS!! "
You barely had time to react before a loud groan came from the bed across the room.
Genya blinked awake, his voice rough. "What the hell is happening...? "
He spotted you immediately hair messy, cheeks puffed with food eyes wide from the chaos.
He just stared.
"Y/n..." he whispered, in awe, like he was seeing a divine being.
Then he shot out of bed and rushed over.
You let out a heavy sigh, cheeks still full of food, when the door slammed open with a bang.
"MY Y/N!!!! " Zenitsu wailed dramatically as he flew into the room. "HOW ARE YOU DOING?! ARE YOU OKAY?? I THOUGHT I WAS GONNA DIE ON THAT MISSION AND NEVER SEE YOU AGAIN!! "
Before you could even swallow, he flung himself at you, wrapping his arms around you like a koala on a tree.
You let your head fall back against the pillow.
"Oh god...what is wrong with people lunging at me today..." you mumbled through a mouthful of rice, scooping up another bite.
