"Nezuko... why do you always visit those demons that miss Shinobu brought back? I glance in there sometimes and see you with one of those girls." Zenitsu asked while looking into her maroon eyes.
"It's my sister." She plainly answered, picking at the grass she sat on. "Sister?" He tilted his head a bit while looking at her, more over admiring her looks than asking her questions. "It's a long story that I don't understand, but she used to be my brother and now she's the mother spider from that mountain." She had tried to explain.
"Was it maybe a blood demon art? If she used to be your brother and was now that demon, then it must be something like that. That demon must be decades old."
She hummed in response. "Maybe." She said, looking up at the stars and moon. It was a surprisingly clear night, since it was raining earlier that day.
"Is your brother awake?" He asked. "Takeo?" She looked back at him as she asked, using her only brother at the moments name. He shook his head.
"The girl." He answered, pointing at the butterfly mansion. She shrugged. "Maybe, want to come check with me?" She didn't really want to go alone, since she was so used to being with people and Takeo was with Tanjiro right now.
Zenitsu nodded, letting Nezuko grab his hand and pull him up with her. She walked to the engawa and jumped on, bringing Zenitsu with her.
She opened the door as quietly as possible, as to not wake anyone up, before jogging down the hall. She stopped at a door, looking at it for a moment.
She didn't want to disturb the three if they were sleeping, so she stepped aside to let Zenitsu open it. They could be mad at him if they woke up.
He took a step forward and gently slid the door open as he peered inside.
Tanjiro sat on the bed, playing with Ami's hair. Light cast onto her face, illuminating the pale skin that was caused by the consumption of Rui's blood.
"Hmm?" She let out a noise as she looked at Zenitsu. She glanced behind him to see Nezuko and made a happy sound, it sounded a bit like a bell to Zenitsu.
"Good evening, Tanjiro." Nezuko quietly greeted while Tanjiro slid off the soft, comfortable, cozy, baby making bed. I said what I said.
She slowly walked over as she straightened the white kimono she was so familiar with. She looked at her younger sister, wrapping her arms around her.
Zenitsu watched the two, waiting for some acknowledgment. He felt a little ignored. As he should. "Do you wanna come outside with us?" She asked, staring down at her brother.
Tanjiro nodded, although you couldn't see it behind the muzzle, she was smiling. Nezuko returned Tanjiro's smile and grabbed her hand.
"Alright, Zenitsu, we can go now."
The three were outside, Tanjiro chasing a butterfly around, catching it a few times, before letting it go. She had brought it over to Nezuko, gently placing it on her nose.
"Hey, that tickles! Hahah!" She watched as the colorful insect flew off, taking shelter in a larger tree. She felt content with the current moment, meaning something bad will happen in the near future, that's just logic.
"It's so peaceful, at times I forget there's demons out there." She spoke, leaning on Zenitsu's shoulder. He didn't seem to mind, so she kept her head there.
"Hey, Nezuko?" She let out a soft hum, dark eyes glancing up at him. "If we defeat Muzan, what are you going to do after that?" He asked, staring down at her. She moved her head, much to his dismay, and fixed her posture.
"Well, if my siblings aren't human yet, then I'll continue to search for some cure." He gripped the edge of the engawa. "How about this, there's no demons, your siblings are back to normal, completely human. What are you doing?"
She smiled at him. "Depends, are you and Inosuke going to be there with me?" She asked, smiling at him. He let out a confused noise. What did Inosuke have to do with anything?
"Well, my family was killed by Kibutsuji, so I'm going to have to live with someone, other than my siblings. I'd go insane if it was just them and I."
She thought back on it, how Takeo and Tanjiro in specific always used to get into some sort of trouble in the woods. Whether it's running from animals to getting stuck in traps set up for said animals. It drove their mother insane.
"Of course we'd be there!" He felt his face turn red at the thought of actually living with her. She laughed, but seemed a little sad. "But that's only if we can actually kill Muzan."
Zenitsu stood up and stared down at her from her seated position. "Nezuko Kamado! I promise you, Tanjiro, and Takeo that we'll kill Muzan and turn your brothers back into humans! You have my word!" He gripped the white uniform fabric that was over his chest.
He felt Tanjiro grab at his free hand, making noises of encouragement underneath the muzzle. He acted to childish now, possibly because he was no longer eating humans.
"Thanks, Tanjiro. The two of you have my oath."
