Julien isn't Lloyd's brother in this AU

A demon slayer AU, where Lloyd is upper moon six (a demon) and Javier is the fire hashira (a demon slayer). Lloyd has Daki's powers.

!!Might contain spoilers for the Demon Slayer Manga !!

The rustling of the leaves could be heard. Lloyd turned his head and waited for the person who caused the noises to appear. A few rustles later, a head with light blue locks appeared.
The person had a beautiful ice blue haori (kimono coat), to match his gorgeous hair. Taking a closer look, you could see the slightly redish black hilt of a katana, attached to the black uniform of the Demon slayers.
Lloyd jumped up from his seat on a tree, landing in front of said man. Standing face to face with him, the blue haired man could clearly see the number 4 in the stead of pupils in the other's eyes under the moon light. A sign, that he was dealing with one of the twelve moons, also known as the strongest demons under Muzan's control.
The demon stepped closer and Javier didn't move an inch. Lloyd stroked Javier's cheek and blew a kiss. "Missed me, dear?", he asked and placed his free hand to the other's shoulder. "You know I always do" the blue haired answered and leaned his forehead against Lloyd's. They stayed silent for a while, before Javier spoke up again. "How was the meeting with Tamayo?" "Amazing! She is such a kind Woman. Her only condition was, that I bring back blood samples of other demons." Javier silently listened to his boyfriend's ramble and smiled.
He leans closer and was about to kiss him, but a sound interrupted them. When they turned their heads to the direction the sound came from, they saw a young demon slayer recruit with red hair.
"Hashira Javier a-and a demon?!? But t-that goes against the c-corps rules!" the young one stuttered in fear. Lloyd was visibly mad at the intrusion, but Javier calmed him and spoke up"Julien. Why are you here? Did you follow me?"
The recruit stayed silent and avoided eye contact, which made Lloyd even more annoyed. He started to let one of his ribbons wander in his direction, but got slapped away by Javier with a warning glance. "You shouldn't follow me out here, especially not when I don't know about it. It's dangerous and you aren't ready to fight on your own yet" the hashira softly said and kneeled down to be on eye level with the young teenager in front of him. "I'm sorry..."
Javier sighed and turned around to Lloyd again. "I am sorry, Lloyd. I need to bring the kid back to my master. I'll see you in a few days, okay?" he apologized and rubbed the demon's hand in an apologetic manner. Lloyd leaned in for a good bye kiss, but Javier leaned back and nodded towards the red head, like he wanted to say 'not in front of the child'. Lloyd sighed in annoyance and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
Turning around, Javier saw the young demon slayer looking at him, like he was waiting for an explanation. "Look, please don't tell anybody about this. I will even help you on the entrance exam, how about that?"
After a few minutes of walking, they made a deal and soon arrived at the former fire hashira's home. "Again, please don't tell anyone"

"kaw kaw Fire Hashira Javier Asrahan, immediately meet her majesty, the Empress kaw kaw" An annoying sound came out of the messenger crow and Javier wondered what the Empress might want to say. He started to sprint and arrived at the big mansion of the head of the demon slayers in less than an hour. (AN I know that it works differently in the manga, but I am too lazy to actually describe it like that)
Inside the front gates, he was greeted by all the other hashiras kneeling in front of Empress Magentano and Javier soon followed after apologizing for coming too late.
"Fire Hashira, stand.", she commanded and put a hand on her hip. Without complaint, Javier stood up and seemed confused. "Do you know why I asked you all here?" the Empress slowly asked in a cold tone, which made Javier shiver. "No, your majesty. I am not aware of why we are here" the blue haired answered honestly. "Well maybe you will know when you see him" she waved someone over and Javier's eyes followed her hand's direction. At the far end of the wooden floor sat a young demon slayer recruit Javier knew all too well. "Julien", he whispered to himself and felt his blood run cold. Said one slowly stood up and walked up to the Empress. She put an arm on Julian's shoulder and looked back at Javier. "Do you know what I mean now?" she questioned. The fire hashira didn't dare to look into the Empress's eyes and averted his look. "Tell me, what is the number one rule of our corps?" she demanded in a firm tone. Javier took a slightly shaky breath, "All demons need to be killed, no mercy" "And what did you do?" He hesitated and closed his eyes for a minute in an attempt to calm down. "I met up with a demon" the answer Javier provided didn't satisfy the Empress yet. "That isn't all, Javier Asrahan" The blue haired looked up determined "I am seeing the upper moon four". Empress Magentano raised an eyebrow at the boldness Javier suddenly attained. "And you did that, fully aware of the consequences?" He only nodded and waited for what would come next. "I can't kill you, since you are one of my strongest. Not allowing you to see him is also not possible, because I know you and you would find a way to see him. What do we do with you, Javier Asrahan?"
The Empress thought about it for a few minutes. Whispers emerged from the other hashiras and stares were thrown at the fire hashira, who stayed still. The tired sigh of her majesty silenced all the whispers and brought the attention back to her. "If you can assure, that the demon will not harm anyone, you are allowed to see him. If not, the demon must die."
Javier let out a breath he didn't know he was holding and looked up at the Empress. "You have my most sincere gratitude, your majesty. I will not disappoint you"
"Be warned, fire hashira. The consequences will be severe if your demon kills any more humans."
Javier nodded in understanding. "Yes, your highness. I understand"
"Well then, you are all dismissed"
With no hesitation, everyone stood up in sync and bowed to the Empress before leaving.
