Nature.

That’s what Inosuke smelled when he opened his eyes. A (f/c) and yellow haori was thrown over him to keep him warm, and a green one acted as a pillow to support his head.

“UWAHHHH!” Inosuke jumped out of his cocoon.

“GACK! He’s awake!”

“Fight me! Fight me!

“You’re going to fight the moment you wake up?! I can’t deal with this!” Zenitsu screamed as he ran away. 

(Name) twitched when the blond scrambled behind her and used her body as a shield. Inosuke stopped in his tracks, as he looked at everyone who stared at him with blank faces. 

“What are you guys doing?!” he demanded.

“We’re burying corpses.” Tanjiro explained, “you help too, Inosuke. Many people were killed in that house.”

“I’m not going to do that! It’s pointless! Why don’t you and the balloon girl fight me instead?!” Inosuke asked rudely.

“It’s because you’re hurt aren’t you?” Tanjiro asked with worried eyes. 

“HUH?!” 

“It’s alright Inosuke, everyone has a different level of pain tolerance. Sorry I asked too much of you.”

“Huh?! Don’t you dare underestimate me! I’ll bury one hundred - no, two hundred corpses! I’ll beat you all!”

(Name) ignored the fiasco as she went to get her haori. She scrunched her nose and sniffed her clothing. 

Does Inosuke ever bathe?

        (Name) walked down the trail, Kokushibo on her back and Tanjiro’s box on her front. Zenitsu was being carried by Tanjiro after being knocked as the children left a few moments ago. 

“I will definitely catch you off guard, balloons! You too, forehead!” Inosuke continued to rant at the two. He stomped between the two and started to poke (name)’s cheek, hoping to get a reaction from her but nothing. 

“My name is Tanjiro Kamado and that’s (name) (l/n)!” Tanjiro snapped.

“Kamaboko Gonpachiro and (mispro. name)! I will definitely bring you two down!” Inosuke declared, waving his arms in a weird stance.

“Who are you even talking about!?”

“You two of course!”

“I don’t know anybody with those names!”

“GAH! COULD YOU TWO SHUT UP PLEASE!” Zenitsu woke up and screeched before giggling at (name), “except you (name)-chan.”

“I didn’t even talk…”

        “Rest! Rest! The injured will rest until fully healed!” Nuomi and Tanjiro’s crow yapped, as the group stood in front of a wisteria symbolized house. 

“Huh? We can rest now? After all this time I fought demons with wounds?” Tanjiro questioned but his crow just “kek kek kek”.

(Name) stared at the interaction before she turned to her own crow. Nuomi sat on her arm with a cheeky grin, and (name) gave the bird a questionable look.

“Hek hek hek.” Nuomi squawked, flapping her wings.

“...heck you.”

(Name)’s eyes narrowed and she grabbed the bird who squeaked with fear. She then turned to Inosuke who “huhed?” at the scene, as she offered the bird to him.
