MODERN AU! (as requested~) #1 in giyushino (more than 3 times) #366 in Anime (out of 1k plus books! That's like what?! 36.6 %?!!!!) In a world of betrayal and obsession, love is the most dangerous weapon of all. To end a brutal gang war that has already claimed hundreds of lives, the leaders of the Butterfly Syndicate and the Water Fang Clan strike a single, desperate compromise: a marriage. Cold, silent Tomioka Giyu-Water Fang's most feared executioner-and the venom-tongued Shinobu Kocho-Butterfly's deadliest strategist-are forced to share a territory, a house, and a wedding band neither wants. If the truce fails, both families will burn. If they fail each other, the city will drown in blood. Shinobu sabotages every mission to spite the man who embodies everything she loathes. Giyu counters by exposing her carefully guarded vulnerabilities. Nights blur into tense arguments, thin walls, and unspoken longing neither of them dares acknowledge. Giyushino~ (might get dark...)

Tomioka Giyuu once believed that his fate was to survive-to carry the pain of those who had fallen, until one day he himself would vanish as the price of power finally claimed him. When he stood before the divine, he was granted a chance to return to the past: to save the one he loved, to change the destinies of comrades who had been taken too soon by a merciless fate. The condition was placed before him without hesitation. A pale golden thread of fate, flickering like the dying light of a soul sinking ever deeper-one so thoroughly drowned in despair that it no longer possessed the strength to enter the cycle of reincarnation. It was not someone he knew. Nor was it someone he was permitted to ask salvation for. Yet Giyuu still reached out his hand, accepting the bond-accepting that from that moment onward, the destinies of two strangers would no longer pass each other like parallel lines, never meant to meet. The divine witnessed this choice and arranged a single point of intersection: a child who had not yet been born, a life that should have vanished before ever taking form, leaving behind a man destined to live his entire life in solitude. When Giyuu opened his eyes once more, he did not return to the past in the body of a warrior, but within the fragile vessel of a life that had only just begun. He was born into the arms of a man-not the strongest swordsman to have ever existed, but a father who had never been given the chance to hold onto his family. From that moment on, two fates were bound together. No one replaced another. No one inherited another's destiny. But from then on, neither of them would ever have to walk forward alone again.

[𝐃𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐬 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝟏] Shinobu Kocho had her future planned down to the smallest detail- medical school, a stable career, a life built on control. One wrong night destroys all of it. After being taken by mistake, Shinobu is pulled into the brutal world of a powerful drug cartel-a world ruled by violence, loyalty, and silence. At the center of it stands Giyuu Tomioka, the cartel's cold, calculating leader... and the only reason she's still alive. He is dangerous. Untouchable. Feared. And yet, the more Shinobu sees beneath his ruthless exterior, the harder it becomes to ignore the tension between them-the quiet moments, the unspoken protection, the way he watches her like she's something he shouldn't want. But falling for him isn't just reckless-it's a death sentence. Surrounded by betrayal, bloodshed, and enemies at every turn, Shinobu is forced to make an impossible choice: escape the life she never wanted... or surrender to a man who could destroy her just as easily as he protects her. Because in a world this dark, love isn't a weakness. It's a liability.

In the heart of Japan in a land called Shōrinkyō, nine legendary warriors known as the Hashira-Rengoku Kyōjurō, Tomioka Giyu, Kochō Kanae, Shinazugawa Sanemi, Iguro Obanai, Himejima Gyomei, Tokito Muichirō, Kanroji Mitsuri, and Uzui Tengen-stand as the eternal guardians of their homeland. For centuries, they have protected their people from threats both mortal and supernatural, bound by duty, strength, and unshakable resolve. Far across the seas lies Setsugenkyō, a hidden kingdom of eternal ice and snow. Ruled by the enigmatic and powerful Queen Shirayuki, the frozen empire harbors dreams of expansion beyond its borders. At her side is her most trusted general and daughter, Shinobu, known as Chō-no-Kami, the Butterfly Goddess of War. Trained from her youth and forged in countless battles, Shinobu commands loyalty and fear alike, her elegance masking a steel-like will. When Queen Shirayuki sets her sights on Shōrinkyō, her icy armies sweep across the land, seizing territory with ruthless precision. For the first time in generations, the Hashira face not demons but a kingdom of men and magic determined to erase their sovereignty. Outnumbered but unbroken, they vow to reclaim their homeland at any cost. Yet fate twists unexpectedly when Tomioka Giyu crosses paths with Chō-no-Kami. Beneath her cold exterior, he senses a hidden light, a fragment of goodness that the queen's conquest has long suppressed. As battle lines are drawn, Shinobu herself begins to question the truth of her identity, the path she has walked, and the queen she serves. Now, Japan's survival rests not only on the might of the Hashira but also on whether Chō-no-Kami will remain a weapon of the Ice Queen, or awaken as the key to freedom.

In the quiet, struggling village of Hanayori, Kocho Shinobu fights every day to keep her fragile world from falling apart. She lives with her gentle but blind father, Himejima Gyomei, her ailing older sister Kocho Kanae, Kanae's devoted husband Shinazugawa Sanemi, and Sanemi's younger brother Genya. Ever since a severe illness struck Kanae and Sanemi lost his job after a tragic accident, the burden of supporting the family has rested heavily on Shinobu's narrow shoulders. Sharp-tongued, relentless, and hopelessly stubborn, she jumps from one job to another-fired again and again for her temper. Still, she refuses to give up. Every coin she earns is another hope of buying Kanae's medicine. But everything shifts the day Gyomei receives an unexpected letter from the royal family of Mizunagi-ōkoku. Longtime friends of the king and queen, they had quietly taken note of Gyomei's mounting hardships. And in an effort to help, they extend an offer that stuns the entire household: An arranged marriage between Shinobu and their son-Prince Tomioka Giyu. The offer could save Kanae's life. It could rescue the family from ruin. But neither Shinobu nor Giyu wants it. Giyu, already known for his cold, unreachable demeanor, has no interest in marrying a fiery commoner he has never met. Shinobu, infuriated by the idea of becoming some prince's political convenience, openly rejects it. The two dislike each other instantly-before they've even spoken a full sentence. Yet the situation leaves them with no choice. To prepare her for life among royalty, Shinobu is forced to enroll in Kōden Academy, an elite school where princes and princesses from neighboring kingdoms are educated together. Thrown into a world of polished etiquette, hidden rivalries, and suffocating expectations, Shinobu must navigate nobles who look down on her, court politics she never asked for, and a fiancé who would rather ignore her than acknowledge her existence.

By day, the city belonged to students. Lecture halls filled with half-awake conversations, coffee cups balance on notebooks, deadlines whispered like threats. Students running around. By night, the city changed hands. Neon lights reflected off polished metal. Engines cut through silence. Some people found freedom in motion, in the rush of wind and the blur of streetlights stretching endlessly ahead. They didn't know each other yet. But they would. In a world full of chaos, the hashira, reunited. Some sharing their love for motorsport while others silently watching from the distance. A Biker Hashira AU! Some ships: Shinobu x Giyu, Mitsuri x Obanai, Tengen x his wives, Kanao x Tanjiro, Nezuko x Zenitsu, Aoi x Inosuke and some mentions of Sanemi x Kanae

They barely talked. Now they're married. In another dimension. When fate (or maybe just really bad luck) hurls Giyu and Shinobu into a parallel world, they wake up to the worst possible scenario: They're hitched. Legally. Publicly. Irrevocably. One's an emotionally unavailable introvert with the charisma of a brick. The other's a sarcastic menace who treats flirting like psychological warfare. Now stuck in a bizarre world where everyone thinks they're the perfect power couple, these two have to navigate suspicious villagers, awkward marital traditions, and each other's very punchable personalities. Can two emotionally stunted idiots fake a relationship long enough to find a way home? Or worse... will they start actually catching feelings? Welcome to the romantic disaster you didn't know you needed. MODERN AND TAISHO! None of the character belong to me except the oc's~
