I see all possibilities for sanemi after war, I see him spending the rest of his limited time roaming the country going places he's never been to, eating and experiencing new things and going wherever he feels like, enjoying the peaceful world he's helped create. I see him married to a girl who's generous and kindhearted, she makes sweets in her family's restaurant, and doesn't know anything about his past just that things happened before they met, things he doesn't wanna talk about so he never brings them up and she never asks, they have a quiet little life and a child.

He also could get married to a kakushi or a girl who's from the demon slaying world, someone who knows why he wakes up heavy breathing in the middle of the night, she knows about the horrors he experienced, and notices him going for a sword that he no longer carries at every loud noise and knows the story of every scar of his, she even knows how limited the time they have together and she's okay with it as long as she has him for all of it.

Or he could read the messages that giyū sends him as he travels everywhere, feeling closer to him with every new letter until he feels the need to go back home to him. He doesn't tell him that he loves him, but giyū sees it in his eyes. They never get married, but they have the closest thing to that, and they live in a domestic bless till the day they die.

I even picture a reality in which they both have feelings for each other, but the fear of being selfish and taking the opportunity of a family from Sanemi stops Giyū from being with him, so he stays away, giving the other a chance at happiness even at his own expense. Sanemi has a happy short life with his family but still loves the other to the end of his days.

Based on my last post I mentioned how often this fandom sees giyuu as more feminine than sanemi which is pretty weird due to fact he is barely feminine? Like what is feminine abt him? His long hair which he literally cuts short in the end?? Maybe due to fact he is more "elegant" than sanemi might seem that he is more feminine but from what stuff I found abt sanemi's character is the fact he has a lot of feminine characteristics from his name to his backstory and even stuff he eats

sanemi's name might be considered feminine due to fact most japanese names that end with -suffix mi are often female names or the fact you can take out this kanji meaning increasingly, all the more 弥 (he shares this kanji with genya but they are read differently) out of sanemi's name 実弥 and put this kanji 美 (this kanji is also used in sanemis younger sister's name sumi) meaning beauty, beautiful, pretty and is spelled the same way the mi part in sanemi's name

I mentioned his favorite food being feminine why? It's due to fact liking sweets in japan as a man is considered to be childish and a feminine thing

His backstory in general is in many people's words oldest daughter coded due to fact sanemi help his mother with raising his little siblings and had to cook and clean for them or even having to get a job at an young age. Due to fact his mother was often pregnant he probably had to be the one who did the most housework

When it comes to his appearance sanemi is often said to have his mother's kind smile that all of his siblings really liked. He obviously has long eyelashes and he in general has chuubier cheeks. It was also mentioned in the story how he smells like ohagi and matcha. He most likely takes after his mother's height and I can already hear people going "But he is only one cm shorter than his brother" first of, men stop growing at 21, the fact genya is already taller than sanemi while being 16 means he still has room for more, secondly we already know how in most anime and manga heights are not done well, like there is a panel where genya looks taller than sanemi atleast for 5-6 cm so either sanemi or genya are lying about their height. Last thing which ufotable has stolen from us is sanemi's pinkish hair in manga, like yeah pink wasn't considered a feminine colour in that time period but now it is so I had to mention it

Also sanemi is often described as an kind and bashful person in the manga by multiple people in the story like c'mon people, why is he often written as an aggressive macho dude in most fics I'm tiredd

there is this small part in me that tends to imagine what it would be like for giyu and sanemi to end up in a relationship post war, where everything is the same as canon including the marks. it might not cross their minds in the beginning; they are too preoccupied with healing and falling in love, but after a year when it all settles down, and peace is their new reality, that is when the idea creeps into giyu's head and he recalls that meeting they had with amane in which she told them about the marks and their inevitable consequence. I wonder what giyu would feel then, the moment he realizes he might become another person sanemi is forced to lose. would he feel guilt over the momentary relief of knowing he will not have to outlive sanemi? would it sting nonetheless? they are heroes and warriors, after all, death has always been so near and imminent. he and sanemi were always content with that but somehow the idea of their mortality bothers him now, scares him even. is it selfish for him to want more time when the rest of the hashira did not even have any of it? I also think of sanemi in that situation, what about him? how would he feel about taking up giyu's finite and precious time on earth? would he revert to his old self and try to push the other away to keep him safe and happy with someone else who has more time, with someone who could keep giyu's name and legacy going? would a small part of him break knowing that he might have to say goodbye to someone else and would he think it might be easier to never love? I wonder if they will talk about it, fight about it and then leave to spare one another the pain and heartache or will they just never address it and allow themselves the company of the other, knowing that it will end badly? I wonder if they would deem the love of the other worth the sacrifice and future tears. would they grow closer knowing they don't have a lot of time? would they go all in and leave any hesitation behind as they dive deeper into the relationship, giving themselves the permission to fall completely and utterly even if that meant their complete devastation soon after? do they stay or do they go. does giyu step back and allow sanemi to become a father and spare him the pain or does sanemi do his best to make giyu despise him so he can let him go. or would they simply ignore the rules of reality and plunge into a certain sweet love because for once they earned it and for once they deserve to be irrational and young?
