Spoiler Alert [Demon Slayer self-insert]

Spoiler Alert: I'm going to cry

I want someone to kiss me, even if it's not true, even if they don't really love me. I want to be able to write for a living, or at least do what I want for money. I just want to be praised, I want someone to tell me I'm doing a good job. Anyways, back to our normal content! The start of this is still the hashira meeting, it's only for a little bit! Don't get mad at me, please!

English is underlined.

Mentions of whipping! Just skip this chapter if you don't want to read about that. Keep in mind that this isn't like talking about the process of whipping, just the before and after of it happening.

"Wait!" You yelled out before the kakushi picking you up. "I can't have Tanjirou find out..."

"Ah... That would be bad..." Said Oyokata-Sama, relaying your words to the hashira, "We may have to come up with an excuse..."

"Or we could just come up with a punishment!" Said Kyojuro with his arms crossed, smile everpresent, "The punishment would overshadow the need to know why they were punished in the first place!"

"Yes, but what punishment would work..." Said Mitsuri with as she picked at her lip with her nails, "I don't want to be too harsh..."

"Anything would work, It doesn't matter," Obanai said, not bothering to think on the subject too much. 

"Usually harboring a demon is punishable by death, so anything less would be suspicious," Said Uzui as he wore a contemplated expression, "And anything that would really be considered a punishment would be physical, like cutting off a hand or whipping them..."

"Physical punishments seem too dramatic for a simple excuse," Oyakata-Sama said, "But I don't have any other ideas."

"I'm okay with a physical punishment, don't you guys have like pain-numbing things?" You asked, not bothered by the idea of getting more scars. One of Kagaya's kids decided to start translating for you.

"Yes, we do, but are you not worried about it? I feel like telling your friend might be better," Said Shinobu as she smiled.

"As long as it doesn't hurt I don't care," You said with a shrug. The child stumbled a bit while saying this, not used to speaking English.

"We could simply whip their legs then, right?" Said Uzui, "Not like anyone will see anything else."

"Hey! Don't assume I won't get bitches!" You yelled, glare on your face. No one bothered to translate for you.

"I must warn you that while you might not feel the pain while it is happening, once the numbing product wears off you will feel pain," Shinobu said as grabbed a needle from her pocket.

"Wait, do you just carry that everywhere with you?" You asked, pointing to the needle. Once again, no one translated.

"It will take a while to set in, so I will put it in now so that the kakushi who specialize in this type of thing can immediately start once you meet them," She said as she grabbed your arm and stuck the needle into one of your veins, "You will also not be able to move after this happens."

You gave an okay sign with your other hand as she emptied the needle into your arm, "Bye-Bye!" You waved as the Kakushi picked you up and ran further into the Ubuyashiki residence. You never would've guessed that the corps would have kakushi who work with torture. Creepy...

Your legs were bandaged up before you were picked up by one of the stronger kakushi. You were completely limp in on her back as she ran the entire way to the Butterfly estate. She muttered on and on about how heavy you were and continually asked if you were still numb.

You couldn't even answer her, only glaring at her whenever she jostled you a bit too much. The numbing substance was no joke, but you were very grateful she gave it to you. They whipped your legs with no mercy, and you were sure that chunks of your flesh were left on the ground after.

They were very violent with you.

Once you made it to the Butterfly estate, the kakushi was stopped by Aoi and you were brought to the room the trio stayed in before. All eyes turned to you, first looking relieved until they saw tour bandaged legs.

"Wait, what happened!" Yelled Tanjirou, going to stand up before he winced and sat back down, "Are you okay Y/N?!"

You wouldn't have answered him even if you could, so you were happy when the kakushi talked for you, "They were whipped as a punishment."

"For what?! I thought we were no longer guilty!" Tanjirou yelled, looking at you with worry as the kakushi threw you onto a bed.

"Wait?! Whipped?!" Zenitsu yelled, waving his tiny hands around in shock, "Did they actually get whipped?"

"Only you were free of charge," The kakushi said as the straightened back up and fully face Tanjirou, "And I don't really know why they were punished, I wasn't there for it. They were very loud though, and I had to clean up the mess it made."

They were really selling the act here. The truth was that you were completely silent the entire time you were whipped thanks to the medicine, and she didn't have to clean up the mess since they used a tarp. 

You felt your arms and legs twitching as the numbing medicine wore off, making you feel the ache in your legs. The cuts from before also aching, your ankle bothering you the most.

"I just hope they learned their lesson," The kakushi said as she left the room, shutting the door with a loud thud.

Inosuke was asleep, his snores the only sound in the room as the three other conscious people looked towards the door in shock. 

You let out a whimper before you started to cry, the shock of the day finally catching up to you. Just the thought of those scary hashira made you shiver. You cried loudly, making it echo through the silent room. 

Tanjirou soon joined you in crying, "I'm so sorry Y/N! I really thought it would be fine! I'm so sorry!" He cried out from his bed, looking at you as you sobbed out. The tears from your eyes seemed endless, and it made him feel even more guilty.

"Was Y/N really whipped?" Zenitsu asked, his voice wobbly, "How cruel..."

As all three of you cried, and across the room, Nezuko scratched on the door of her box.

Taisho-Era Secret! Kakushi Style!

"I don't think I've ever seen someone as resilient as that one foreign kid! They didn't even flinch when we were whipping them!"

"They didn't move the entire time! I feel kind of jealous of their pain tolerance, if I get even a scratch to the knee I have to be carried..."
