Shinobu tried to explain what a wisteria house was in the most appealing way. At the moment you did not have a job you helped out around town to make extra money. If you did this you would be making money from the comfort of your own home you just had to house some people.

It sounded like a great offer... But did you want to do that to your home? It was so very important to you, you would probably die if you found even a single hole in the wall.

But you needed money... You couldn't just keep freeloading off of every one in the village, sure they may say they don't mind and all but surly it got annoying. You didn't want to be useless, you wanted to help people and pay people back. If you did that you could do both.

So after a lot of convincing you finally said yes, you were worried though, that house was made by your great grandfather... And you've seen the patients around here they can get a bit rowdy...

"Well... I'll tell Oyakata-sama you said yes. I assume you want answers now, don't you?" Shinobu stopped hugging you and looked you straight in the face. She was super intimidating when you couldn't read her expression. You would much rather her fake smiles over this.

//you could tell when she was being genuine and when she wasn't though in those time you wished you would've been able to tell when she was minpulating you//

"Well if your up for it.."

"Yeah whatever I am, So you heard we were hunters, right? We are, but we don't hunt for animals..."

You tuned her out although you should be listing you couldn't help but think how upset she sounded. she was mad at you right? 

Demons was one of the words that went through to you. Slayer, breaths, Kibutsuji, sun, nichirin, upper moons, eat, marechi, wisteria.

Demons huh? I suppose that would make sense thats would explain why people would disappear in the night without a trace, it would also explain that whole clearing by your home.

"...They eat human, wisteria wards them off..."

Thats why they are called wisteria house then. They are a safe haven for demon slayers... A place where they can rest without worry. If wisteria warded them off why didn't they just plant wisteria everywhere? That probably wouldn't be the best for the environment...

"...The government doesn't know we exist..."

Oh thats why. You understood why too, it would be a hard one to swallow, demons...

"Shinobu... What would I do if I encountered a demon?"

Ah- if you encountered a demon? Your best bet would be to run... You probably wouldn't survive a demon encounter, you were weak and needed to be protected thats why she wanted you to stay at the butterfly mansion.

"If you encountered a demon you wouldn't survive. You would die almost instantly if the demon wasn't sadistic that is, if a demon was sadistic you would probably be alive for hours while it was eating you alive. Thats why I suggested you stay with me or make your home into a wisteria house. Always carry wisteria on you (y/n)."

You didn't know is Shinobu's intent was to scare you or not(it was), but if it was then she had done her job good... Almost no way of surviving...

Its a good thing your house is being made into a wisteria house, demons can't be around wisteria, how odd.

Shinobu suggested to stay here until everything is prepared back home.

"Tokito-san? What are you doing here?" You asked the black and turquoise haired boy.

"I think I'm here to see someone..? Who are you?"

You stared at the boy before responding.

"I'm (y/n) we've met before, I bandaged your arm up!" The boy looked down at his arm he seemed to concentrate for a moment before giving up.

"I don't seem to recall.." He sounded less confident then before, no matter you enjoyed his company. Now that you think about it... Tokito is also a demon slayer right? He looked so young though, he couldn't be much older than the little girls. You truly pitied the boy.

"Thats fine I don't mind reintroducing myself to you." You gently smiled at the boy. "You said you were here to see someone right? Do you remember who?"

"No I don't..." He frowned.

"How about I help you find them?" The boy only nodded his head before grabbing your hand and waiting for you to lead the way. Maybe he did remember you in some way, subconsciously.

And so you lead him around the estate asking him whenever you saw someone if that was who he was looking for. He always answered no.

"Your pretty..." That to you the first time you two met.

"Thank you Tokito."

"Muichiro, I want you to call me Muichiro." You couldn't help but smile at him.

"Of course Muichiro." He slightly smiled at the use of his given name.

"You said you liked my name before right..?"

"Yes I did im very happy you remembered that."

"Then its you im looking for." You stopped walking. You? He was looking for you?

"Me?"

"Yes I remember now, sort of. We watched the clouds together, I want to do it again." You nodded your head and smiled, what a sweetheart. You would gladly watch the clouds with him if it meant he was happy.

"Then let's go watch the clouds together."

So calming, you thought as you two laid on the cold ground. You didn't mind at all the snow was falling around and on you two, he never let go of you.

You and him both enjoyed the warmth of eachother's hand, it was the perfect contrast against the cold snow.

Muichiro didn't know why but he felt warm around you even in the cold it was a feel he rarely experienced. So he was happy he found it in your company.

He would like for you two to be able to lay down and watch the clouds all the time.
