Giyuu
➷ After slaying a demon, Giyuu makes his way through the forest
➷ He finds you wandering about; remaining silent as he wraps his hand around his sword's hilt
➷ When both of you make eye contact, you rush behind a tree, staring at him as you peek behind it
➷ As he unsheathes his sword, he notices your teary eyes as you plead him to not harm you
➷ He's frozen; his heart and mind are at war, and he's too indecisive to follow one
➷ While he ponders his decision, he observes you — ready to strike if you make a false move
➷ The air is thick with tension; neither of you are sure of the other's move. For what seemed like the longest minute of your life, he releases his grip on the sword
➷ He's not the best at socializing, especially with kids (who's also a demon), so he'll do his best to coax you from your hiding spot
➷ His cold stare doesn't help his case either, but after he promises to not hurt you, you cautiously approach him
➷ He won't ask whether you're alone, since he's sure you would've cried for help long ago. So, he opens his hand for you to hold
➷ He's still on guard since you're a demon, but you remind him of Nezuko; so, he's not too worried
➷ The both of you aimlessly wander for some time until you find a cave. He'll check to make sure there's no signs of a bear or something else inhabiting it
➷ He'll look down at you, asking that you remain here
➷ When you thank him with an innocent, genuine smile, it pulls at his heartstrings. He's taken aback at first, but the way he feels warm all over helps him make a decision. When he said he'll come back for you, it was a promise and nothing short of it
➷ Kanzaburo has a habit of sometimes not relaying his messages; so, he'll return to the Demon Slayer Corps, informing Kagaya of you. When Kagaya requests your presence, Giyuu will be sure to find you: a pure, loving smile still on your face as you hug his leg
➷ When Kagaya introduced you to the hashira, Obanai was already plotting your demise
➷ Despite his devotion to Kagaya and the Demon Slayer Corps, he finds it difficult to accept you into the group
➷ Although you're just a kid, he won't refrain from pointing a finger at you before threatening you
➷ Chances are, you'll run off wailing to Mitsuri — which earns him a scolding from her
➷ He watches you afar, warily eyeing you as you interact with the others
➷ If you attempt to converse with him, he either ignores you, or the spine-chilling glare in his eyes remind you that he wants nothing to do with you
➷ Mitsuri adores you; so the only time he'll even consider being within a few feet of you is to ensure her safety
➷ With time, he has this odd attachment towards you. He'll realize that despite being a demon, you're still a child. Your unfortunate circumstances might even remind him of his past
➷ Becoming a demon was the byproduct of circumstances out of your hands. Even if you want to move past it, your physical state is irreversible and serves as a constant reminder of your traumatic childhood
➷ After he comes to that conclusion, he might even believe that both of you aren't that different after all
➷ He'll probably still watch you from afar, but instead of cautiously watching you, he's instead looking out for your safety
➷ At that point, whenever you interact with him, he still has an intimidating look on his face, but his eyes seem much more gentle; he may even respond to you for once
➷ He's wary of your intentions because you're a child, and being a demon didn't help either; so he has a bad impression of you for some time
➷ He's on his guard when you approach him, suspicious that you'll betray him and the group at any moment
➷ Like Obanai, time is your best friend. The more you interact with him, the more he ponders his opinion towards you
➷ Greetings and gifts will tremendously sway him over. Whenever you greet him while crossing paths, he'll be sure to remember your innocent, jovial voice. If you bring him little gifts, like a flower or a drawing for him, he'll reluctantly take it, but still thank you with a smile caressing his face...may even shed a tear when you're not looking
➷ He slowly lets down his walls
➷ Once he's warmed up to you a bit, he'll let you hug him or hold his hand, just to test the waters
➷ When he concludes that you're nothing like the children from his past; he's gentle and loving towards you
➷ Loves to spend time with you
➷ Teaches you how to meditate
➷ Lets you hold his hand when you ask, or carries you on his shoulders
➷ Treats you just like any other kid, except he wholeheartedly trusts you
