The whistling wind makes the boy's black hair with blue tips sway elegantly along with the dancing dead leaves. The shining sun pierces his turquoise eyes, the lime green grass tickles his ankles and his lean muscles ache to move. A boy, wearing oversized demon slayer attire, stands restlessy under the burning sun for hours whilst staring up at the clouds. He can't seem to remember what he was doing here, even so the young teen felt unnervingly compelled to stay. Why? He too was left pondering the answer to such a question.  


"Whats the name of that cloud again?" He mutters with a tone of indifference, yet a hint of curiousity underlying the question. His toughts have already shifted, fluffly white clouds swim in the beautiful blue sky except for one. An outcast, a gloomy gray cloud threatnens the bright sun with its misty form. Suddenly, he senses an eccentric presence beginning to approach him. Muichiro spares a glance behind his shoulder to study the new addition, he has spiky, unkept, maroon tinted hair and a comfortably fitted black demon slayers uniform, snugly hugging his muscular figure. 

"A Nimbostratus I believe!" A voice shouts out with utmost gusto behind the peculiar, noirette. The unknown person takes long strides toward the boy before excitedly exclaiming " Im Kamado Tanjiro, NICE TO MEET YOU!" Tanjiro's maroon eyes shimmer with excitement and he bows in respect before taking the boys hands  and asking for his name in return. 

'Tanjiro's hands are filled with training callouses and battle scars, these are the hands of a fighter, a demon slayer. ' notes the boy. 

The young pillar's expression remains aloof but he ultimately realizes that. this Tanjiro, is much too stubborn, he reluctantly introduces himself. Thats odd, he has no recollection of knowing such information about this mysterious boy. Nonetheless, the mist Hashira wonders how long it will take it before he forgets this person's name too, usually directly after the dicussion is shared. Yet he feels an eerie reminiscence as he locks eyes with his shining maroon eyes.

"Well, Muichiro Tokito, would you care to cloud gaze together? this is my favourite spot after all!" The kind boy sends the demon slayer a  sappy close eyed smile before settling down on the ground with his hands wrapped comfortably behind his unruly red hair. His long legs rest leisurly crossed and the grass brushes softly against his ankles. The overly enthusiastic boy expects a reponse but Muichiro simply stands there puzzled. His blue tipped hair shifts around in the breeze, the tree branches shake off their autumn leaves and he feels an odd recollection, here too, in the golden glowing forest,was his favourite spot to cloud gaze.  Tanjiro decides to encourage the boy to spend time together one last time. " C'mon I'll be quiet if you want, you'll forget im here after awhile anyway."

Muichiro decides he has nothing to gain from wasting time with this nobody, and yet he finds himself laying right next to him anyway. How odd, feels an unknown easiness around this person even though they are complete strangers. It takes him only a moment to realize why and for the first time, his apathetic expression morphs into one of shock. He stares expectantly over at the person and recognizes the same sad smile he fell in love with.

"Do I know you?" Muichiro mumbles out. 

This causes a giggle to erupt from the other person before responding "Technically yes, we have seen each other many times at this meadow. Its actually our anniversary for the first time we met here, four years ago."
