    "Tamayo-sama, she looks fine, so why are we still here?" Yushiro grumbled whilst crossing his arms over his chest, his violet eyes cutting into (Y/N)'s form as she sat in bed with Tamayo hovering over her to check up on her. "Those Hashira... especially that Insect one... don't trust us. To stay here this long with the threat of them probably killing us if we do one thing wrong is unreasonable."

    "Yushiro, (Y/N)-san has been through a great ordeal," Tamayo exhaled softly as she gazed at him, albeit in a stern way more so than anything. "It's only right that I help her along the way."

    "Bitch-boy, calm down," (Y/N) rolled her eyes as she sat up. "You can leave. I'm fine, now."

    "You're not fine," Tamayo immediately spoke.

    "Huh?"

    "The reason I want you to rest is because your body is still getting used to the modifications that I made," she sighed as she put her equipment away and started to undo the smock that she wore. "If you overexert yourself now, then you will start to crave human flesh again because your body needs the energy gained from that to keep going. Once I have deemed your body compatible with the modifications, then you may be released from resting."

    Yushiro grumbled under this breath at that.

    "I'm going to leave now since I'm done with your check-up, (Y/N)-san," Tamayo stood up, Yushiro doing the same. "But, Yushiro, I want you to stay here and watch over her to make sure she doesn't try to get up."

    "B-But, Tamayo-sama!"

    "I know you'll be fine, Yushiro," she smiled gently before sliding the door closed behind her.

    Turning around swiftly to face (Y/N), his eyes sharpened into a glare, Yushiro ground his teeth until they almost cracked as he stared intensely at her, as if she were the one responsible for the fact that he couldn't be with Tamayo. She threw her hands up in a 'what?' type of gesture, shooting him the middle finger which he only scowled at. True, she got on his nerves so well that he almost wasn't sure if he wanted to slap her or kill her, but what baffled him greatly was the fact that even though she irritated him, he looked forward to spending time with her.

    It was why he so willingly went along with Tamayo to the Demon Slayers Headquarters even when she insisted that she would be fine going alone.

    He perked up when he heard (Y/N) shuffling around, glancing back ever so subtly to see that she had lain down and was trying to sleep, something that didn't come that easily for her now that her demon constitution had no need for rest. He could tell that she was trying very hard to retain the bits of humanity that she had left, and he commended her for that effort on her part.
