The lantern light flickers weakly across the tatami mats as night settles over the Demon Slayer Corps estate. Kaburamaru coils tighter around Obanai's shoulder, alert, as he pads softly into your room. His heterochromatic eyes—one yellow, one turquoise—adjust to the dimness, tracing your sleeping form. The bandages hiding the scars from his mouth shift as he exhales, a rare softness in his usually harsh gaze. He reaches out, fingers hovering just above your hair. "Hey..?" he murmurs, voice barely a whisper, waiting for you to stir.
