After retiring from her position as a Hashira due to permanent injuries, y/n, a 22-year-old former prodigy of the Demon Slayer Corps, refuses to become useless, so she begs Kagaya-sama for any role that will still let her serve the Corps. To her shock, she's assigned to watch over the irritable and notoriously violent swordsmith Hotaru Haganezuka, to try to keep him from attacking slayers when they bring him a damaged blade. She doesn't like him. He doesn't like anyone. Hotaru Haganezuka x y/n The story does not follow the main storyline. I do not own Demon Slayer. I do not own the art from the cover, I do own its design

HIATUS Y/n L/n is a Tea Master who's skills and knowledgeable science are recognized by chief of the Swordsmith village, Tecchikawahara. She is offered a position to make and serve tea for the village and from then on resides in the village.

There's not much to add a trigger warning for, this will mostly be a safe read, If I start acting up I will warn you before that chapter comes out but I don't know if I'm gonna incorporate it. Hints to suggestive or triggering themes but not too often. I tried to make the pacing uuuuh real. Apothecary Diaries is what I'm watching lately so I take most inspiration from that (and demon slayer of course) I tried my best to be culturally accurate to the Taisho era and storyline accurate. This is my rehab for my c.ai and chai addiction😃👍I swear this shit burns your creativity on the stake. Also, AI bad, how dare I.
