(REQUESTS CLOSED) Kimetsu no Yaiba Scenarios

If You Had Amnesia

A/N: I'm alive! Kinda. It's been really hard to continue. Sorry to immediately bring this back with angst, but this is the only thing I've been able to actually get out of my brain.

TW: Blood and injury. Reader cracks her head open, and of course, canon-typical violence as background shenanigans.

It was an accident. Just an accident.

Your mission was supposed to be a routine one, but much like a lot of your life, it very quickly went belly-up. You succeeded in eliminating the one terrorizing a village, but at the very last moment, a hand shoved you and you tumbled backward, weapon flying from your hand.

Falling from a roof and cracking your head open certainly wasn't on your bingo card, nor was waking up without a shred of a memory of the past year and a half.

Tanjiro:

When Tanjiro got the news, he freaked. He all but threw on a coat and shoes before running into the night, tears burning his eyes as he pleaded desperately for you to be okay.

When he got to Shinobu's, you were still unconscious. The bloodied bandages around your head - and the overwhelming smell of impending death - were nauseating. Thankfully you pulled through, and a week later, you woke to him sitting at your side, your hand cradled in his.

His relief rapidly turned to shock when you struggled to remember who he was. No. You couldn't have just... forgotten, could you? All the happy memories you'd made together? All the times you'd fought side by side?

His heart was breaking even as he tried to smile at you, reassuring you that until your memory returned - if it ever would, considering the severity of your fall - he would be there, nursing you back to health.

You couldn't help but feel some of his sorrow grip your heart, feeling like this boy must have been someone truly special to you if he held your hand so tenderly.

Nezuko:

Nezuko shrieks when she and the others get the news - and she begs her brother to go check on you. He agrees immediately, and before they know it, the whole group is at the Butterfly Estate, and Nezuko is rushing through the halls, trying to get to you.

It takes you more than a week to wake up - and Nezuko spends that time crying, clutching your hand to her forehead, desperately trying to will you to wake up. She refuses to leave your side, shrugging off Aoi's, and even her brother's, pleas for her to rest.

The moment you wake up, she's asleep, hand still pressed to her face. At the sound of your heartbeat picking up speed, her eyes are wide open, and fresh tears dribble down her face as she cradles yours in her hands. She's careful, so so careful, and despite the instant screaming fear of demon in your brain, you realize this one means no harm.

Nezuko is heartbroken when the group is told that you've lost your memory of the last year and a half. Every time your wary gaze falls on her, she can feel herself shattering just a little bit more. You haven't looked at her that way since the night you first met - and despite how much she wants to crawl into your arms and stay there until you remember the love you shared, she holds back, not wanting you to reject her altogether.

Zenitsu:

Zenitsu drops everything the moment he gets word of your accident - and he rushes to be at your side, despite Aoi and the girls staging a roadblock when he roars through the Estate. At their demands for him to let you rest, he begs to see you anyway - and he can feel his heart shatter when he sees just how small you seem in the infirmary bed, your skin pale and clammy with your near-death experience. Though he can hear your heartbeat, it's faint and sluggish - and he sits at your bedside, determined to wait however long it took for you to wake up.
