RIMURU POV 

We followed the girl we met outside the mansion when I noticed tanjiro was staring at kanao.

We walked through the halls where I heard the familiar sound of someone whining. 

Zenitsu: FIVE TIMES?! I GOTTA TAKE THIS FIVE TIMES A DAY?! AND I HAVE TO KEEP TAKING IT FOR THREE MONTHS?! IT'S SUCH A HORRIBLY BITTER TASTE, TOO! I'M NOT GONNA WANT TO EAT A SINGLE THING AFTER TAKING THAT! YOU'RE TELLING ME THAT MY LIMBS WILL BE RESTORED JUST BY TAKING THIS MEDICINE?! REALLY?! EXPLAIN TO ME HOW THAT'S GONNA WORK! I DONT UNDERSTAND IT AT ALL!...

Once we entered the room, the girl leading us sighed. 

???: still making a fuss, even now?

Zenitsu: ...FORGET EVEN JUST ONE TIME?! HUH?! HUH?! WHAT'LL HAPPEN TO MY ARMS AND LEGS?!

Tanjiro: ZENITSU!

Zenitsu: TELL ME! TELL ME!

I'm starting to get annoyed. 

???: please lower your voice

Zenitsu: PLEASE! PLEASE!

Rimuru: *max volume* WILL YOU SHUT THE HELL UP!!

Zenitsu: WAAAHH!!

Zenitsu held his ears in pain.

???: WOW! she actually got him to be quiet!

Tanjiro: zenitsu, what happened? Are you alright? So you did come up the mountain, just like what rimuru said

Zenitsu glanced at us with tears in his eyes. 

Zenitsu: t-tanjiro. r-rimuru

Zenitsu latched on the kakushi carrying tanjiro and started wailing. 

Zenitsu: it was terrible, you guys. It's just awful!...

Kakushi: Uh...

Zenitsu: I got bit by this icky spider. It really hurt! That girl's been yelling at me ever since I arrived at this place, too! Rimuru, please do something about her!

Kakushi: Hey, stop crying on me. I've got nothing to do with this

Rimuru: I'm really sorry about my friend here. He's a pathetic coward

Kakushi: Yeah, that much is obvious

Rimuru: By the way, zenitsu, did you? Uhh...

Tanjiro: Get smaller or something?

Zenitsu pulled away from the kakushi with snot bridging between them.

Kakushi/female kakushi 1&2/rimuru: (gross)

Zenitsu: I almost got turned into a spider, so my arms and legs are really short right now

Tanjiro: So that's what happened. And the others?

Rimuru: What about inouske?

Tanjiro: or Kazuma, murata, and ozaki?

Zenitsu: I don't know who those last three are, but inosuke's right over there

Zenitsu points to the bed next to him.

We then saw inosuke quietly laying down.

Tanjiro: OH, YOU'RE RIGHT!

Rimuru: HE'S SO QUIET I DIDN'T EVEN NOTICED HIM!

Tanjiro fell off the kakushi.

Rimuru: TANJIRO?! hey, are you alright?

Tanjiro barely got up.

Tanjiro: I'm alright... inouske! I'm glad you're safe. I'm so relieved 

I rubbed the back of my head.
