Sorry to hear you are sick Flamey! I'm also sick and feel like shit.

Seeing your previous post, I see Kyojuro would absolutely be doing everything he can so nurse his s/o back to health. Much less, he doesn't want burden them by having them take care of them when he's sick.

Get better before me.

Dearest Bean, I hope you feel better soon! And thank you to @gloomyandpitty and @fififluff1316 for suggesting Kyojuro too 💖

SFW. Tiny bit of angst. GN!reader.

Kyojuro x Sick SO

Prepare to be doted on.

One of the defining moments of Kyojuro's life was sitting at his mother's bedside as she lay sick. So no matter how mild your symptoms, there's always going to be that little nagging voice that someone precious to him could be taken away.

He is a worrier. He won't leave your bedside unless you send him away.

It's actually one of the few times he's quiet. But his mind is anything but.

Big believer in the healing properties of food. And while he isn't the best cook, he's well-known and adored by all the best cooks in the village, so they're more than happy to send him back to you with home cooked meals to help you regain your strength.

The Rengoku family prides themselves on passing down knowledge and wisdom, and that applies to remedies too. He pores over journals searching for ways to alleviate your symptoms, apologizing profusely if they don't taste good or make you nauseous.

It's actually one of the only times he would ever refuse a mission should he be called to one while you're sick.

His father was away on one when his mother passed and he never got to say goodbye.

The thought of you dying alone terrifies him more than facing any demon ever could.

"It's just a cold, Kyo... I promise I'll be okay."

"Yes! You'll be okay because I'll make sure you're okay! I won't let any harm come to you."

He stays awake as long as he can, just watching over you. You always find him sprawled over you in the weirdest positions the morning, or else he's fallen asleep kneeling beside you.

When you're better he takes a few more days off from missions just to spend them with you and ensure you're okay. It really scares him to see you sick. He's always extra clingy those days, offering to help you with the simplest tasks and treating you like you're made of glass.

Sick Kyojuro x Reader

However, he is the complete opposite when he is sick.

It doesn't happen often. His immune system, like everything about him, is robust. But when he does get sick it takes him out.

Tries to beat the cold out of himself with punishing treatments; bathing in ice-cold water, choking down bitter medicines, still training diligently because Master Kagaya put him on leave and he still feels like he has to do something.

He won't admit he doesn't feel well until he's quite literally unable to crawl out of bed.

You almost have to physically restrain him to get him to let you take care of him.

One of the surefire ways to tell he's coming down with something is loss of appetite. Ordinarily Kyojuro can solo a banquet made for ten men, so when you notice him pushing his food around his plate, that's a good sign to start gathering herbs for remedies.

He's a little sulky then, especially when he can't taste anything.

Loudest sneezer in existence.

The only upside to being sick is getting to spend more time at home with you.

Once he comes to terms with the fact he isn't feeling good, he'll make the most of that, simply enjoying your company, listening to your stories.

He likes to be cared for more than he'll admit. And he appreciates your strength and compassion so much.

For once he doesn't have to be strong and indomitable. It's strangely comforting, to know the world goes on even when he's unable to fight any more.
