Giyuu Tomioka has always been a mystery - unreadable eyes, measured words, and a silence that feels colder than his own water breathing. To most of the Demon Slayer Corps, he's detached, arrogant, unfeeling. Even the other Hashira treat him like an outsider - a man who doesn't belong among them.
But they don't see the fractures beneath his calm.
They don't hear the quiet self-loathing that haunts him after every battle.
They don't know how close he stands to breaking.
When Giyuu and Sanemi are forced to work together, the tension between them burns hot - resentment, anger, and something neither of them wants to name. Every clash of blades and words strips away another layer of defense until all that's left are two broken men who see too much of themselves in each other.
Between violence and vulnerability, their connection becomes something raw - something dangerous.
And as demons fall and fireworks light the sky, Giyuu begins to realize that maybe even the most shattered soul can still burn bright, if only for a moment.

Children of Wisteria (A GiyuShino AU)-ON HOLD
After the defeat of Muzan, peace finally returns to the Demon Slayer Corps. With their swords set aside, the surviving Hashira attempt to build normal lives from the ruins of war. Among them, Shinobu Kocho and Giyu Tomioka-once comrades hardened by bloodshed-find solace in each other and start a family. They raise twins: Hitari, who helps Shinobu tend to patients at the Butterfly Mansion, and Hokaru, who trains under Giyu to master Water Breathing. But even in times of peace, shadows linger. Hokaru struggles with his father's quiet intensity, striving to prove himself as a worthy swordsman. Meanwhile, Hitari dreams of tending to the sick, like her mother, but struggles to herbs and anatomy. That yearning changes everything the day she awakens ice powers-a terrifying echo of the Upper Rank Two demon, Dōma, whom Shinobu once fought and Giyu killed. Terrified of hurting her mother, who suffers deep scars and PTSD from that battle, Hitari hides her abilities. Yet her secret grows darker: with each passing night, villagers are found dead, their bodies mangled as if devoured by a demon. The signs all point to something impossible-could Shinobu's own daughter be slipping into the hunger of the enemy they fought so hard to destroy? Now, the Tomioka family stands at a fragile crossroads. Giyu must decide if he will shield his daughter or confront the horrifying truth. Shinobu is forced to face the ice-bound past she tried to bury. And the Hashira, once united to defeat Muzan, may be torn apart by a new, intimate war-one born not from demons, but from within.![Against the Tide [Giyushino Fanfic]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/387038562-256-k132257.jpg)

In Our Next Life, Please Make Me Your Wife...
In the world of Demon Slayer, darkness lurks at every corner. Fearsome demons roam, preying on the innocent. But in this chaos, a small light blooms in the form of the Hashira, elite warriors sworn to protect humanity. Among them are four figures, each battling their own demons-both literal and personal. Obanai Iguro, the Serpent Hashira, stands tall and proud, but inside, he wrestles with shame. His past is stained with regret, and he believes he's unworthy of love. His heart aches for Mitsuri Kanroji, the Love Hashira, who radiates warmth and kindness. Yet, he pushes her away, convinced she deserves someone pure, not a man haunted by his actions. Mitsuri sees through Obanai's walls. She admires his strength and determination, but he never believes her. When she expresses her feelings, he only retreats deeper into his self-loathing. This creates tension between them, a push and pull that neither can escape. On another front, Sanemi Shinazugawa, the Wind Hashira, fights not only demons but also his past. His life is marked by scars-physical and emotional. He believes his worth is tied to his strength, and he hides his softer side. Sanemi harbors feelings for Kanae Kocho, the Flower Hashira, who embodies grace and resilience. She understands the weight he carries, but he struggles to let her in. Kanae longs to show Sanemi that love can heal, but his fears create walls between them. Their bond grows strained as Sanemi pushes her away, convinced that his scars define him. In a place like this, will love grow and blossom?
