Scenario: Tanjiro needs comfort

Requested by:-Jewelxz

TW: slight panic attack

Tanjiro rolled around in his sleep.

His eyes squinted at the mere memory of his mother screaming, his younger sibling crying out in pain.

"TANJIROOO!"

"NII-CHAANN!"

How Nezuko could have fought in pain and how much she tried to protect them but failing. He rolled and rolled around. Until he fell off the bedding in the shadow's pillars estate. He had grown close with the pillar. About his age as well.

He opened his eyes and started to breath heavily. His heart pounding against his chest as he pushed himself off the ground. His eyes stung with tears. His vision blurry as he sobbed and made his way to the larger set of doors.

His quiet hiccups and sobs didn't wake his friends or sister hopefully. But a pillar with thick senses could.

(M/n) Orihake awoken when he heard footsteps in his estate and quickly went to grab his katana. He could sense them as slow and staggered. Not heavy like a demons.

He was still on guard but he moved quickly to see what the matter was. When he walked the corner of the hallway he saw Tanjiro sadly crying and sobbing quietly. Trying as hard as he could not to wake up anyone.

He lowered his weapon and walked to Tanjro. The young boy cried and cried, how he was sorry he couldn't save his mother or siblings. How his father must be saddened or disappointed.

His sobs came to an abrupt stop when strong and kind arms wrapped around him and his frame. Tanjiro felt his feet and legs on the floor being lifted. (M/n) took him to the nearest room and let him sleep there.

He didn't want him laying in the hallway of the large estate. Demons lurk and so do thieves.

"Shhh, shh I have you Tanjiro. I'm here, it's okay.."

His heart broke when the boy held onto him and sobbed into his shoulder. He was so shook up. His body was trembling and shaking, he had goosebumps and everything. he couldn't even mumble a syllable.

His savior rested him on the large bedding and tucked him in. Tanjiro clung onto his shirt, (M/n) sighed and sat beside him. Tanjiro slowly lied across his lap and and started to calm down to smooth and soothing humming his companion shared.

He played with his red hair in his fingers and slowly twirled the strands. He told Tanjiro to try and match his breathing and to try and concentrate on his humming. Ground himself too by asking simple questions.

"Tanjiro-kun what is the color of my shirt?"

"(F-)(Favorite color).."

"Good now what about my eyes?"

The room was lit with a dim but calming and welcoming candle.

"(Eye color.).."

He nodded and hummed once more. He wanted to wait on asking whether or not if he wanted to speak on the matter. His breathing still wasn't to his normal level and asking may bring more harsh and sudden feelings.

The boy was asked more questions till the latter decided to ask.

"Tanjiro, what was it about?"

"W-what was w-what about?"

"Your sudden change in feeling, I could sense such terror and pain in you. I feared a demon had came here and jumped up to help. But you were the one on the floor and crying softly. What happened?"

Tanjiro closed his eyes and was quiet for a moment.

"If you don't want to speak about it, it will be fine with me. We can just enjoy the silence of the night."

Tanjiro nodded and did the second option. He hugged (M/n) and held him close. His eyes closed but he was not a sleep. He could smell an welcoming and knowing smell of the shadow pillar. He opened his eyes to see him with is eyes closed.

He had a small smile as he slowly muttered.

"I had a dream about my family..I-dreamed..i dreamed...i-"

"You do not have to speak anymore. I understand." He could sense the fear and anxiety rise or the pain and terror. He wanted him to feel safe and calm. He held him close and hummed him into a small tune.

Tanjiro felt his eyes slowly close and he drifted into dreamland. Instead of the pain of his family dying and no one left. He dreamed of peace and happiness of those around him.

He smiled and subconsciously said.

"Thank you Orihake-kun.."

"Your welcome Tanjiro-kun."

Both slept peacefully as the fear and nightmares went away slowly. A night of eternity and slumber resumed smoothly.
