❝ nezuko’s refusal to consume human flesh — and ability to survive without it — is unheard of. i wouldn’t have believed a demon like her could exist, had i not witnessed her protect tanjiro with my own eyes. she’s proven herself to be resilient and incredibly strong - willed, much like her brother — she was able to resist shinazugawa’s attempts to goad her into attacking him, and has even gone on to conquer the sun, a demon’s greatest weakness. ❞ giyuu pauses, a shuddering breath escaping his lips. he’d scarcely dared to hope at the time that the kamado siblings might prove to be the catalyst of change humanity has been waiting for, but by now, it seems an undeniable fact. as if the invisible cogs of fate have finally been put into motion, they stand closer to the eradication of demon’s than they ever have before. he closes his eyes, willing away such fanciful thoughts. until their victory is within their grasp, there’s little use in pondering on the what - ifs.
drawing in a deep, steadying breath, giyuu reopens his eyes and continues calmly, ❝ despite what she’s suffered and how lonely she must be, she’s . . . kind. ❞ she reminds him, distantly, of his own sister, giyuu realises. gentle, patient, full of love. no matter what life threw her way, tsutako always put others first and smiled through her pain, right up until the day she died. he wishes he had even an ounce of her strength, that he could offer kindness to others as readily as she once had, as nezuko now does.
giyuu quickly shuts the lid on the wave of warm, painful memories that threaten to spill out of the strictly maintained box he’s kept them in for so many years, lips pressing into a thin, sorrowful line. while his words are gentle, with a firm air of finality he says, ❝ i hope i live long enough to see her become human again. ❞
