This time its Tengen - he's based off of a kirin, with some artistic liberties. A mix of a chinese and japanese kirin/qilins in addition adding some features for the face from Monster Hunter Kirin.
There was a lot of back and forth about what to make him, and while he might be better suited for another, we decided on a kirin because he can be flashy and fluffy (Gyomei would also be a kirin since the characteristics/general demeanor fits him a bit more) but alas it's a start :D
He lives with Kyojuro in the same town/village as Shinobu/kanae/Kanao live in and they blend in with the humans. As time as gone on the belief of spirits and supernatural as started to diminish which has resulted in their magic becoming weaker so they change their appearances to fit in. Now its rare for Tengen to take on his true form, and instead goes between the human appearance and casual look.

It was a regular day at your job. You worked at a market and not many people came to your side since your area was mostly for the weapons. The shop you were working at was family owned, specialized in mostly taking care of swords including; cleaning, sharpening, polishing, and even putting on a new handle no matter what type of sword.
Today you sat back and listened to the birds. No one else was around not even your brother, the only other coworker. He said he'd be back in 30 minutes but it's been a good hour since him and his friend left. He obviously bailed on you.
The customers consisted of mostly elderly men coming to get their swords sharpened or refurbished for their son or grandson as a gift. Knowing this, your brother probably thought you'd have no problem with him leaving early. You sighed and relaxed knowing there was a good chance no one would be over today anyway.
But just as you thought that, you heard a pair of footsteps walk to your booth and stop just short of it.
"Excuse me. Are you open?"
When it accrued to you that someone was there waiting and speaking to you , you opened your eyes and stood up out of your seat.
"Yes sir we are. How may I help you." When you made eye contact with the man, you had to keep yourself from staring. He was much larger and taller than you in practically every way making it feel like you were a house cat standing in front of a lion if that made any sense. The man had white hair and maroon eyes. A total dreamboat to anyone.
"I need my swords and chain cleaned and sharpened if possible. Along with my handle. The grip is getting a little weak.
"I-uh yes we can do that. What type of swords are they."
"Great.... how long would the wait be." He ignored the question and watched you pull out a book and look at a couple of things.
"I would have to gather the materials to fix the handle part you're talking about...depending on what is wrong with it. If you bring in later today, whenever is convenient for you I'll have them complete and ready for you tomorrow."
"That sounds wonderful. I will pick them up tomorrow evening then. After our date in the morning." He lifted a big bag up from his side and placed it on the table with a smirk on his face.
You paused once you heard this thinking you must have thought of something else and it crossed over his words.
"I-.... Excuse me?" He didn't say anything and just smiled.
"Well if you don't want to that's fine too."
"No no it just caught me off guard is all....sure."
"Great. Then it's a date."
He smirked at you and then unzipped the bag.
"May I?" You looked at the bag then at him as he nodded and gestured for you to continue. You moved the bag open seeing the two huge weapons, they were pretty beat up but you could still tell how strong and powerful the weapons were. "Wow....How'd you manage to damage these huge things." You reached in and grabbed one by the handle not expecting it to be as heavy as it was.
"Nothing much. Just messing aroun- careful." He took the handle from your grip and took the one sword out of the bag for you. It was freshly washed as if something had been on it before he brought them in but you didn't say anything since it's none of your business.
"Thank you." You were pretty impressed how he was able to pick it up so easily and held your smile as you got a good look at it.
When you looked at it closely, you were taken back a bit noticing the work done on the sword. But then realized what it was made out of.
"Wait. These swords..."
"Pretty impressive work. That's why I can't take them to the one who forged them. He'd have my head if he saw them like this. What, do you recognize the work?"
"Well no but my father told me stories about these type of swords. The material used to build them usually is only used by a demon slayer. I thought it was just some old stories. But....how could you get a hold of something so close to the description."
"Another thing I'd like to keep that to myself."
"....hmm...okay... well... I'll get started right away. You can come inside if you'd like." You looked at the swords one more time then started to pick up the bag. Since it was too heavy for you, he picked them up for you.
On the way inside the shop past a few things including doors and materials put to the side for other customers, you asked him a few questions.
"So. Does my secretive client have a name?"
"Well since you asked...Uzui Tengen." He followed not far behind you.
"A strong name for a strong man. Perfect for a Hashira."
"I never said that's who I was."
"That's fine. You can continue to say those things but it's obvious. Why else would you be carrying around a Hashira's weapon." Uzui didn't say anything and just chuckled to himself fascinated with the way you walked, talked, and looked in-front of him. Wearing a kimono was a regular thing for you and in all honesty it was comfortable.
When you got to the spot where you would begin to wash his swords you prepared him some tea and a place to sit and wait.
His eyes were glued on your arms and chest as you tightened your bow on your kimono and took the swords out of the bag carefully.
With it being so tight up and around your arms it was also across and down your back really showing off your curves. Which Uzui especially liked about it. And now with the sleeves pulled back. He could see the outlines of your entire body.
"Say.... what is it that you use to clean swords with. I hear this shop is the best when it comes to cleaning and fixing the grip of any sword."
"That is a family secret. Can't tell you that."
"Well what about the technique with the handles. All of the swordsman that come here never have to get a replacement handle after yours."
"Can't say. Once again it's a family secret."
"Hmm. You really are full of secrets aren't you."
"I could say the same for you." You peeked over your shoulder catching his eyes looking at your ass while you worked on the chain connecting the two swords. It was pretty beat up but nothing you couldn't fix.
"What. You like what you see?" Your words didn't distract Tengen one bit. In fact it only made him smile and stare even more.
His actions made you smile and shake your head looking back at the swords to focus on the task you started.
After finishing the washing part, it was time to sharpen it, but before you did that you went and finished making Uzui his cup of tea.
"Thank you."
"It's no problem" you looked at him and smiled making eye contact just before you took the tea pot and put it back where it was supposed to go.
After 30 minutes of talking to one another while you did what you could with your materials and Uzui walked around and helped where he could, he looked at the time and had to leave you to the rest of your work.
"I'll let you get top your work."
"What? You're leaving?" You were a little surprised, not wanting him to go so soon.
"Unfortunately. But don't worry. I'll be here for our date tomorrow." He winked at you and walked out the shop as you followed.
He smirked lightly while saying good bye to you and walked away from the booth. You scanned the way he wore his traditional kimono as he walked away. Exhaling, you checked him out just before shaking your head and snapping out of it.
—
The next day, you found yourself a little overly excited as you got yourself ready for the little date you two had planed. Once he arrived at the shop to pick you up, you were ready as ever. He greeted you with a warm smile and complements left and right as he watched you walk out.
He made you feel like the center of attention. His personality was so flashy that he didn't feel shy or nervous to say or do anything.
The two of you went around town and ate lunch together for a few hours while you both started to get to know each other a bit more than before hitting it off while even visiting some festivals before heading back.
By the time you got back to the market, the two of you couldn't hold your smiles and laughs.
"let me go and get changed. I have to wax and rinse your swords before you go." He nodded and waited patiently as you left to change into your easier to work in kimono. Once you came back, you tied back your sleeves and prepared some tea for Uzui to drink as you worked.
As the water boiled, you got to work and finished polishing his swords. As you were finishing up, you paused and cleaned off your hands to pour him a cup of tea.
"thank you y/n " He smiled and watched as you poured his drink.
"It's my pleasure, you don't have to thank me." You slowly poured the tea into the cup after adding the scoops of tea leaves to the mix. But as you poured the tea you ended up leaning over just enough showing your breast by accident.
Though you weren’t aware of it, this caught Uzui's eyes instantly.
When you finished pouring the tea, you put the pot down and stood up. But, before you could get to your feet, Uzui pulled you down to sit in his lap.
When you noticed what happened you started to apologize thinking that maybe you had fallen but it was the opposite.
"You planned this? Or maybe it was an accident… Either way. I'm a pretty sturdy and flashy man when it comes to seeing something I like that you have in front of me."
"Wha-....what's that supposed to mean." You knew what he meant but you couldn't be sure what he may be thinking.
"To put it short. Once someone starts something..." he leaned in close to you and spoke quietly. "I make sure to get it done. And in a quick and flashy way if need be." After just a second he moved the both of you over so your back was on the floor and he was over your body.
Your heart began to race realizing all this was actually happening.
"If this bothers you in any way you can say it."
He paused giving you time to speak but instead of saying something you thought about it and took advantage of the situation because why not. You grabbed onto the back of his neck pulling yourself up to his lips kissing him.
By the timing, Uzui was slightly caught off guard but joined into the kiss not long later. It was just over a minute when the kiss turned more intimate.
Your hands were all over each other. Both of your breathing grew heavier every second as you both grew curious, wanting a little more than just each other's touch and you didn't care about how he just showed up at your shop. It didn't bother you one bit that this man was between your legs with the slightest movements gently turning into grinds each second.
It wasn't clear till now just how large Uzui was compared to you. He had his arms wrapped around you perfectly as your legs around his hips just enough for your ankles to attach comfortably.
Beginning to grow a bit impatient, you reached down and grabbed a hold of his kimono. He didn't stop you so you undid it and slowly started to push it off his shoulders. Uzui helped you with that along with your kimono, pushing down your sleeves.
You were both ready for each other and when he eventually was lined up, he gave you a look double checking if this was okay. Watching him pause, you nodded as he pushed in deep, already stretching you out slowly as he wanted.
He was huge. But even with this being your first, after the pain, you loved every second with Uzui.
His hands held onto your ass and waist as he placed his forehead against yours. Your moans filled the room quickly as his tempo began to speed up.
Your toes curled and your nails dug into his remaining clothing. When you did, he took it off, tossing it so he could feel your scratching. Uzui kept his eyes on your chest and body most of the time, making eye contact with you from time to time when you had them open.
Slowly you lowered your hand and opened your kimono a bit more so he could see as much as he wanted. He loved this, making his thrusts rougher without him even noticing.
Your hand shot back up and held on tight, scratching down his back multiple times only adding to his pleasure.
Uzui sat up more and stared down at your eyes watching as they rolled back in pleasure.
He smirked and began to ram into you. His eyes wandered and scanned every square inch of your body and stopped on your chest watching as your breast moved with each thrust he put on you.
The both of you were loud. Being at it for so long, his rough manner turned into bliss. But as you began to reach your climax and tried telling Uzui you heard someone open the door to the shop.
"Y/n?! Sorry we're late getting back we...uh... Just needed to stop by a place on the way back."
Hearing the voices made both you and Uzui pause out of shock but he found a quick solution. Though it probably wasn’t the best plan.
He picked you up along with his kimono and carried you to the closest closet. When you both got inside it was only a split second till someone walked in the room.
"Y/n?...."
"Is she in there?"
"No. But it looks like she started for a client though so she can't be too far."
You held your hand over Uzui’s mouth as you both listened out for the people just outside the door. He saw the opportunity and took it by moving your hips in his hand, just enough to get your attention. During this whole time he didn’t pull out all the way.
When the both of you locked eyes you did it this time but only to have Uzui stop you mid way with his hand.
"Eh. Whatever. Lets go get some Ramen maybe. And then she'll have a reason to not be mad at me for bringing you back so late."
Being so impatient with the situation, he kissed you and put your arms around his neck.
Getting distracted, you kissed him back. So you moved your hips again moving him back a little against the closet wall. It was a tight space but he was able to slide down enough to get a better angle.
"Yeah alright." The two people walked out the room and out the shop to head out to get food.
Uzui bit his lip and held you still.
"How are you gonna do me like that, come on." He then moved the both of you, pushing you to the wall and pining your hands to the wall holding them above your head continuing to thrust.
Once again, the room filled with your shared noises.
You moaned and whined telling him how close you were but he didn't listen and let you cum. When you did, he bit his lip mumbling sweet nothings before fucking you through your orgasim.
He made you a mess under him. Your legs were weak and loose around his hips as your hands gripped his arms leaving nail marks all over.
It wasn't long until he found your g spot, making sure you came again just before him.
Compared to yours, his breath was only a little heavy. It didn’t take long before his breathing calmed.
He kissed your cheek down to your neck before pulling out and opening the door. Carrying you, Uzui got blankets from the closet and laid you down carefully with your head on his lap while he put his kimono back on.
"I knew it"
"Hmm?... knew what."
"You're breathing. So controlled. You really are a Hashira... And you could probably go for hours Huh."
Tengen chuckled to himself and moved your hair out your face. "Only if you would be down for that."
