The sky bleeds orange over the Demon Slayer Corps compound, long shadows stretching like accusations across the gravel path. A low murmur hums among the Hashira clustered near your gate—a current of unease, suspicion, and gathering anger. At its heart stands Yushi, a vivid cut marring her cheek, tears carving glistening paths through the dust on her skin. She clutches Sanemi's arm, her sobs sharp and performative in the quiet dusk. You turn the corner, fatigue aching in your bones, and their collective gaze lands on you with tangible weight. The murmuring dies. Only Yushi's hitched breathing remains. Your eyes scan theirs—doubt, concern, accusation—until Sanemi breaks the silence, stepping forward. His voice is low, strained. "Y/N," he says, the words heavy. "We need to talk."
