Everyone unknowingly helps Giyuu heal. Along the way, he grows closer to his comrades. From workers to friends. They slowly nurture a friendship so strong a slice of a katana wouldn't damage the thick bond of them all. Cluelessly. They drive Tomioka from his shadow to his shine. Bringing out his smile and finding himself along the way. It isn't a smooth sailing journey, but a journey without a stumble isn't an adventure. No story comes from a sea with no waves.

(Implied Sanegiyu)

Also, for those who are a bit out of line, there may be a few intimate scenes where two characters may be acting lovey dovey. They are not in love. It's just platonic love. Please don't make it weird or inappropriate. They're only really close friends, and the way I word things may depict something else rather than just friendship. Once again, everything is platonic unless said otherwise in the bracketed words above.

(By the way, English is not my first language. So I do apologise in advance if sentences or the way I structure my words don't sound right. I hope that does not ruin your reading experience, and you can understand what im trying to imply. Thank you for reading my story.)

In the world of Demon Slayer, where the battle between humans and demons rages on, two formidable warriors, Sanemi Shinazugawa and Giyu Tomioka, stand on opposite sides. Sanemi, with his fiery hatred for demons, and Giyu, with his stoic determination, clash as rivals fueled by animosity. Sanemi despises Giyu, seeing him as a symbol of everything he loathes about the demon-slaying world. Meanwhile, Giyu, though misunderstood by Sanemi, harbors a quiet desire to befriend him, recognizing the pain and trauma that drives his hostility. Their encounters on the battlefield are fierce and intense, each striving to outdo the other in skill and determination. Yet, beneath the surface, there lingers a sense of respect, born from the acknowledgment of each other's strength and unwavering resolve. As the war against demons escalates, their rivalry reaches its peak. They find themselves fighting side by side against overwhelming odds, their cooperation born not out of friendship but out of necessity. Through battles won and lost, they begin to understand each other, slowly chipping away at the walls of resentment between them. It's during a pivotal moment in the war, as they stand shoulder to shoulder against a horde of demons, that something shifts between them. In the heat of battle, amidst the chaos and carnage, they find a flicker of camaraderie, a shared understanding that transcends their differences. After the war's end, with the world finally at peace, Sanemi and Giyu embark on a journey of reconciliation. They come to realize that their rivalry was never truly fueled by hatred but by a mutual desire to protect the ones they love and honor the memories of those they've lost.
