Back at the demon slayer corps.

Some of the hashrias were training/practicing there sword skills, while on the other hand some are helping Mitsuri with the ball. Giyuu was just sitting on porch, outside. He couldn't stop thinking about the mysterious boy he meet in the woods. The sound of his voice, His red shaded eyes, his kind heart. Giyuu couldn't get him out of his mind and really wants to see him again.

"Wake up, Tomioka-san, you're in a dazed." Obanai said from behind.

Giyuu snapped out of his fantasy and looked at Obanai.

"you've been off, since the hunt of the demon stag."

"it's that wonderful boy, I can't stop thinking about him."

"But there are plenty of boys." Obanai  said. "Which one in particular?"

"His spirit. I don't know anything about him." Giyuu added as he turned his head away, closed his eyes and thought about his mysteries lover.

"Perhaps, your mystery boy might come to the ball, that is why your the one responsible."  

"It was to be fair."

"Of course." Obanai replied. "how shallow of me."

"Well if he comes then..." Giyuu said.

"Then you would tell him you were a Hashira, and a Hashira may take whichever husband he wishes." Obanai continued.

"Hm." Giyuu hummed.

"huh?" the Obanai questioned 

"Yes, huh, you know the hashira rules." Giyuu stated  

"Oh, if this boy from the forest is as charming as you say, the rules might change." Obanai explained.

"And I'm hoping your right." Giyuu said.

Meanwhile back at Tanjiro's home, Tanjiro was in the attic taking out an old Kimono and haori his father use to wear. While Nezuko and their animal friends looked at the Kimono, amazed.

"Isn't it great, it was our father's" Tanjiro said to the animals.

"It is, but it's a little old." Chuntaro chirped.

"Well maybe it's a little old, but I think it's fixable." Tanjiro replied.

"but how are you gonna do that?" a brown dove asked. 

"hmm, wait a minute." Tanjiro said. He grabbed a book from the sewing basket and scrolled through the pages. "There ought to be some good ideas in here." turning the pages over "uh huh, this one." he found a good design in the book and showed it to Nezuko and the birds.

"Hmm!" Nezuko muffled, happily stunned from the design.

"oh that's nice!" Chuntaro chirped.

"I like it!" 3 little birds chirped at the same time. 

"agreed!"

"it will be easy." said the brown dove.

"I'll have to fix up some of the selves, maybe add something for the collar, and then I'll-" Tanjiro said but was suddenly cut off when one of the stepsiblings called him. "Oh, now what do they want?" Tanjiro sighed in disappointment.

"CinderTanjiro!" Susamaru called out.

"Oh well, guess my Kimono and haori will just have to wait, I mean the ball is in two weeks so maybe, I still have time." Tanjiro sighed. 

"CinderTanjiro!" Yahaba exclaimed.

"Alright! Alright! I'm coming." Tanjiro said getting up and leaving the room.

"Poor Tanjiro." Chuntaro chirped, sadly. 

Nezuko whimpered sadly, feeling so bad for her brother she knew her brother really wanted to see the demon slayer he meet in the forest.

"You know what, Tanjiro won't go to the ball." Chuntaro said.

"What?!" Nezuko exclaimed in shocked. 

"not go?!" Flip the brown dove said, shocked. 

"What did you say?!" the rest of the birds said in total shocked.

"you'll see, they got him busy, plus even if the ball is in two weeks they will still, keep him busy, with little seconds." Chuntaro admitted.

The bird frowned in sadness, they felt so bad for Tanjiro, but Nezuko had an idea, she looked at the design in the book, and looked at the Kimono and haori with a smile.

Nezuko explained to the bird her plan and as the birds listened they regained their hope for Tanjiro able to go to the ball after all.

"Great Idea, Nezuko!" Chuntaro bounced, chirping happily.

They got to work right away.

"Come on!" Chuntaro chirped. "Let's get some supplies!"
