Art is not mine!! 🚫
A once delicate heart, as calm as the ocean now sit, still in the chest of the stone faced male. As he lay unconscious on the hard wood floors of his estate, Blood seeping from his wound. Slowly loosing his sense of reality, he...

"I.." was all the ravenette could choke out, his face twisted into one of worry. Shinobu mentally took note of this, knowing he had just woken up. He was probably taking this very hard.
She grabbed his hands while still crouching down, bring them closer to her face so he'd look her in the eyes. His eyes filled to brim with tears. His expression a gut-wrenching one that would hurt anyone who saw.
"Im sorry Kocho. I do not wish to share this moment." was all he managed to choke out, his words sounding stiff, as if he was being choked or suffocated. She hated to see him this way, it was disturbing when you find your usual cold-glared friend on the verge of breaking down.
Shinobu then gave him a warning that other Hashiras were coming in to check on him. The ones coming to see him were, Mitsuri and Sanemi. He understood why Mitsuri would check up on him, he was like a jaded little brother in other words. But Sanemi? He couldn't find another reason than for him to lecture the ravenette about getting hurt while being a Hashira.
He let out a elongated sigh, giving a nod to the shorter female to show he was listening. She had gaven him some pain killers for the excruciating pain in his lower forearms.
He nodded, taking them without a fuss, he just hoped he'd be out of the infirmary soon. He had missions to attend to. He and the other hashiras knew that, but why would they make him stay. He was honestly fine already, he'd gotten enough sleep to recover on his own physically.
He was honestly confused about the whole thing, he hadn't been to his house in three days according to Shinobu. He was out like a light for those three days completely.
He then gave a quiet sigh, only to himself as he stretched his arms out across the bed. He lay there thinking of why Sanemi would visit, or why Mitsuri had come to check on him anyway.
He was soon asleep, all the previous thoughts gone in an instant. Just empty darkness filled his dreams, nothing more, and nothing less.

Mitsuri Pov;
Kyaa!! I can't want to check up on Tomioka-san, I've been worried sick about him ever since I saw him in his estate. The last I did see of him was when Sanemi had rushed him over to the butterfly mansion for immediate treatment.
But Shinobu had called saying he woke up not too long ago, but as to not strain his wounds to be gentle and kind. Which I usually am, so there isn't much to worry about!

The pinkette had visited the shorter female, giving a wave to show she was acknowledging her presence and help with Tomioka.
She began to walk up to the purple-tinted haired woman, her figure significantly taller than the one she was walking towards. She began to go on and on asking questions about Giyuu, and if he was alright.
Shinobu patiently answered them all, most being about his well being. Although she never mentioned a thing about the cuts to Mitsuri. She'd be balling her eyes out if she knew Giyuu did that too himself.
She then asked the cause of Giyuu bleeding out. Shinobu had explained it was a demon, which Giyuu defeated with ease. But it did land a few hits, causing the blood to seep from his arms. She smiled softly at the pinkette.
She knew Giyuu saw them both like sisters, and she adored Giyuu, and teased him when she felt like it. It was their way if showing they care for eachother.
But she felt a deep sadness in the fact she never noticed how he felt. She was supposed to look after him, or that was her perspective. She felt the need to look after him.
But just as she was coming to a conclusion, Mitsuri broke her train of thought. Waving her hand Infront of the smaller ones face. She nodded gently, slowly coming back to reality.
"My apologies Mitsuri, I was spacing out. But I assure you I was listening!" She replied in her usual cheery tone, she wasn't lying. She was indeed listening to her, just thinking about her words as well.
"Its okay Shinobu! It happens, But do you mind if I visit Giyuu? I'd like to check up on him!" She had a hint of sadness in her voice as she spoke, her falling out of her mouth delicately. She was afraid of the answer she might get.
Shinobu nodded, giving her a warm smile. She had checked on Giyuu a little bit before. Warning him that he was going to have to talk to some others. She had expected Mitsuri, he wanted him to be ready too.
"Oh, What room is he in?" She asked right before putting her hand on the door nob. Shinobu gave the reply, as Mitsuri thanked her, before running out of the door.
She made her way to the ravenette's room, knocking on the door before entering. Giyuu was laying in his bed, the only indication it was him was his black hair sticking out from a corner of the covers.
"Tomioka-san?" Her now bubbly tone was one of remorse, she was upset seeing him like this. They were best friends- or as close to best friends as Giyuu liked. And seeing her friend like this was upsetting, even if it was Giyuu.
The other gave a lazy hum as a response. Slowly sitting up. The pain in his arms had drifted away a little. Allowing him to use his arms to prop himself up. He looked at her, his usual stoic expression on his face. Although deep down he was happy to see her.
