Yeah, I dunno, I like the segment of this song, wanted to use it for- something. And I wanted to practise editing and effects and stuff, so. I drew whatever. Is this even angst? I have no clue what Genya’s crying about.
Enjoy, I guess ^~^ !
For @galdorial !!
Hey, waves… made this because I could 😳💜 some parts are lazy, but. It turned out pretty okay. Maybe. I ended up finishing this way sooner than I thought I would, anyways.

…Also, uhm. Ignore the fact that their designs aren’t canon-compliant. Asians aren’t all snow-white, anyways. Plus, I think their colour palettes just look better with darker skin 💔 especially Sanemi’s. With canon him, there just isn’t enough value difference since he’s all white hair, white haori, white ___ yeah. He looks a bit boring with paler skin. Not bad, just boring. Also just my opinion, ignore everything I say 😳

…Drew in my sketchbook for the first time in months. Maybe years. It honestly turned out really good, I think, I’m pretty happy. There’s stuff I’d change, mainly tiny bits with the proportions, but drawing with pencil is way too hard, man.

Get the strap, I guess.
Beach day ! !

Ugh, busy, busy. Actually, that’s a lie, I’ve just been super slack… shh. Which is fine ‘cause I don’t really care, I’ll draw when I feel like drawing. Also, these two were pissing me off and I hated the idea of finishing it, so. Slap some text on it, some scribbles, and call it a day <3
Side note, but I also really like this new brush. It’s fun. Yeah. Idk where I’m going with this.

the most disorganized thoughts about sngn ever tm
🍃🍉they live in my head rent free, i should probs start charging them rent🍃🍉
• relationship is at first a secret, but everyone finds out eventually due to how overprotective nemi ends up getting in public (you had one job sanemi 🤦)
• speaking of nemi, he's protective and clingy, more so w/ genya than anyone else
• that whole 'not wanting genya to join the corps' thing? well, now it causes this behavior where everytime genya has to leave for a mission, nemi's dragging his feet, begging him not to go
• nemi is also very physically affectionate, he loves cuddling bc it makes him feel like he's keeping his brother safe
• nemi will also brush his thumb over genya's cheek the same way his mom used to do with him
• nemi is very bad with words, so he just sticks to showing how much he loves genya rather than outright saying it (not that his brother minds, ofc)
• the most endearing thing nemi will do is when he'll swear up and down that genya's 'so small,' even though he's the physically smaller one
• nemi has definitely cried over his brother more times than he could count, everytime he says something mean to him, he'll cries later when in private
• nemi feels guilty for how poorly he used to treat his brother, so he compensates for it in whatever way he can
• on the other hand, genya isn't clingy at all, but he does get 100x happier when he's hanging out with his brother
• he gets embarrassed and flustered easily from nemi's public protectiveness and his own inexperience
• genya, unlike his brother, is pretty great with words, when he isn't a blushing mess, so he can talk his usually stubborn nemi into letting him do things he normally wouldn't be allowed to do, (although it takes a lot of effort)
• he usually uses this ability to get nemi to chill out and let him go on missions
• and yes, before you ask, genya does call sanemi 'nemi' much to his (outward) dismay (he secretly adores that his brother still calls him that)
• genya can be insecure sometimes about whether or not he's good enough for his brother... he tries to hide it, but nemi knows and will comfort him as best as he can (without using words, obv)
🍃🍉that's all i can think of for now, time to go to sleep🍃🍉

The Dual Nature of Genya's Tsuba
Let's go on a quick deep-dive about this somewhat forgettable detail! After all, Genya's gun tends to leave more of an impact than that Nichirin-to he was so insistent on getting. But on this blog, I like swords, as well as sword decor.
The hand guards (tsuba) throughout Kimetsu no Yaiba range from symbolic items that are totally impractical (like a sharp pinwheel) to subtle accents inspired by real swords (like the elegantly charcoal-inspired one). Genya's is so close to some real-life tsuba designs that you can call this type by its name: namako-sukashi (海鼠透かし).
"Namako" is in direct reference to "sea cucumber," because that it what the shape of the cut-out segments resemble.
Wait, wait, wait, no, I'm not going to compare Genya to a sea cucumber. There's more we can say about this, really. And this was actually a very common motif integrated into many different tsuba designs, including highly complex ones!
However, it is best known for this design that looks very close to Genya's tsuba. It has been praised for centuries for being elegant in its simplicity. Although it is categorized as a namako-sukashi design, it is also called a "Musashi" tsuba because it is widely said that the master swordsman Miyamoto Musashi (1584–1645) himself designed it.
You know, Miyamoto Musashi. The guy who wrote "The Book of Five Rings." The undefeated duelist who wielded two swords. The guy who, if up against a demon, would definitely not need to resort to blasting the demon's head off with fire-power, or when that fails, panicking and taking a bite of out it.
Perhaps they don't have much in common as far as fighting abilities are concerned, apart from Genya also being a double-wielder. We can, however, look for some similarities between Genya and Musashi in terms of lifestyle. Musashi could be a bit of a loner; he was the sort of guy who stuck to his own path instead of minding social conventions, and he would easily leave behind home and all his possessions if it was for a greater purpose. He was self-made in a lot of ways, and practicing Buddhism was deeply woven into Musashi's philosophies.
Let's put a pin in Buddhism and set aside those sea cucumbers. We can instead look at this motif for its overall shape. The overlapping circles make up the most basic form of a wachigai (輪違い) crest.
Basically, any crest made up of 2 to 10 circles in any arrangement can be considered a wachigai-type crest, though the names will get more and more specific for each arrangement. In general, these are considered auspicious because of the unbroken layering of good things. They got popular in the Heian period and got picked up by everybody from Sengoku samurai families to families with influence around the start of the Meiji period. But like, anybody who wanted to give something an auspicious touch could find ways to use repeating patterns like these. They are super common, and I would even argue that Shinobu's tsuba is based on a wachigai-type pattern.
To focus on the simple, basic wachigai pattern of two overlapping, linked circles, we can find examples of it in, say, a highly-ranked house of the pleasure quarters of Kyoto, the Wachigai-ya, which uses that as their crest. But Genya was not in the Entertainment District Arc, so let's instead go back to that pin we put in Buddhism. Among the handful of religious institutions that use this crest, one of them is the Buzan sect of esoteric Shingon Buddhism. There are actually multiple explanations of what sorts of duality it represents, like two inseparable realms where Buddha is just as present, but one of the simpler concepts is bonjoufuni (凡聖不二), the idea that both holy persons and common folk alike are both human, entirely and inseparably the same.
Now, in Genya's case, we have someone of two co-existing states: human and demon. Even for being human, he is capable of what is impossible for humans; he fully embodies the strength and regenerative capabilities of a demon, as well as the same weaknesses. Despite encompassing a demon's traits, Genya is not like Nezuko or Tamayo or Yushiro. He is human. He's got both states.
He is like overlapping circles.
Or maybe he's like a sea cucumber, if sea cucumbers can also eat demons.

“Right now?! Genya knew her brother was insatiable at home, but at school? It only ever extended to heated glances and quick squeezes.
But this was no mere squeeze!
His hand languidly groped the meat of her ass and thigh, leaving her hot and nervous. How would they explain this to a teacher if one of them walked back in? "
