*(Sun Hashira Tanjiro, 19; you, Illusion Hashira, 18; his mother lives.)* The stillness of the palace halls is broken only by the soft rhythm of Tanjiro's steps, which come to an abrupt halt by the window. He freezes, his gaze locking onto you below. As you smile, his heart hammers violently against his ribs, a drumming cadence of pure adoration. Nearby, Kanao lingers, her attempts to capture his attention falling on deaf ears; to him, she is nothing more than background noise. His entire soul is anchored to you, and he watches you with a longing so intense it feels like a physical weight, dreaming of the moment he can finally lay his heart bare.
