|finally did it!|

the training is still hell and I was close to giving up but with tanjiro around who always pushes me to do better I get back up and do it anyways me and tanjiro where eating when the butterfly girls appear they set gourds in front of us my gourd is huge"nope nope nopety nope nop-"tanjiro covers my mouth with his hand as he smiles towards them

I get even more depressed when they say they want us to blow into the gourds in order to destroy them as I sigh later that night me and tanjiro are on the roof trying to master our breathing when I sense someone next to us seeing butterfly lady who keeps telling me to call her by her name but I don't really care for names or honorifics

"you two are trying hard even though your other two friends are off somewhere else are't you two lonely up here"we both smile at her"nope!" "of course not if we can do it then we can teach it to them too!"

she smiles at both of us but I feel as if her smile isn't that genuine there is something dark hidden deep within her I don't know how much I can sense it somehow"you both have beautiful souls"we are all silent for a minute"I want to entrust my dream onto you both"she breaks the silence as we both turn our heads towards her

"a dream?" "yes..a dream to get along with demons i'm sure you both can do it"I feel her anger spike as she says it before both me and tanjiro speak at the same time"are you angry?"her eyes widen as she gasps quietly before looking down

"yes I am...from the moment my beloved big sister was slaughtered by demons every time I saw the tears of people who's loved ones where taken away by demons every time I heard their shrieks of dispair the anger inside me continued to grow larger and larger..."

my eyes widen she's just like me in a way  as I break the silence"I feel the same as you the anger I feel towards those who harm others always spikes and I end up freaking out and then hurting those around me of which I love and care about"

she smiles as she finally stands up and turns away after a few more minutes of talking and then disappears as tanjiro whispers"we'll do our best!"the next day tanjiro gives the butterfly girls some kind of sticks to help with our training as they wake us up in the morning for training

I blow into my gourd as hard as I can before it finally breaks open and so does tanjiro's my lungs feel like they are about to collapse but I did it anyways! next up the teacups and tag with kanao

both me and tanjiro are chasing kanao as I feel myself speed up more and I grab her arm and tanjiro grabs her other as we celebrate yet again next up the teacups first up is me as I move my arms around matching kanao's speed as I continue to do it my pupils turn to slits and my whiskers thicken as I go faster than before and manage to splash her with the tea as I calm down

"yes in your face!-" tanjiro covers my mouth before I can continue showboating as he moves me to the side for his turn and he does the same but instead of splashing her with water he places the teacup on her head as he smiles as tackles me into a hug almost crushing me as I hug him back we finally did it.
