True Love Lost..

That one scene that I’ve been repeating to myself since I left the theater

whenever i see that post about swapping female characters with male ones in video games i always think about this

I couldn't resist publishing this now that I have a few chapters under my belt. This story has literally been eating away at my life. Also, trying something new with shorter chapters. I think it makes a story like this more impactful and will honestly probably lead to more frequent updates.

Tagging those who asked, and those who were interested from my other posts about this fic: @torao-chan @manruu @trafalgarlawsfeathercoat @xxkitty13 @sugarpsalms @ccrider-2014 @sen-ya @existential-crisis24 @mizu-no-doukeshi

(One Piece, Law x Luffy, Explicit)

Luffy never meant to fall in love with his kidnapper, he just did.

REQUESTED: "Hello again :) I'm sorry if I'm requesting too much but would it be possible for me to request a series where it's reader x kyojuro x giyu x sanemi x obanai. Based on being tanjiro and nezuko's older sister who left to train to be an ice hashira and was coming to visit her family when they were killed. Please could it follow the anime as closely as possible if it's no trouble :)" - @exodarkwolf16

WARNINGS: canon typical violence, cursing, sexual themes (specific chapters)

STATUS: Incomplete - Ongoing

A/N: Hello, welcome to this not-so-little series that I've started! Just a few notes before we get into the meat of the series, but while the request does specify that they want this to follow the anime as closely as possible, there will be several chapters that are outside of "canon", it's the easiest way I can work in four different love interests and still have a unique original "reader character". Basically with typical fanfiction, I had to take some creative liberties in order to make this worth the read. To be tagged in future chapters send an ask or leave a comment.

BREATHING STYLE - ICE BREATHING:

i am not nearly creative enough to come up with an entire breathing style all on my own, so i found THIS wiki that has some ice breathing styles so i picked some from there.

first form: roaring frost

- with a fast frontward dash, the user will use their blade to send a powerful diagonal strike which cuts their foe in half.

second form: winter wrath

- the swordsman maneuvers themselves and circles the enemy. then, they would slowly close in the gap between them and the enemy, delivering rotation slashes.

third form: blessing of the first snow

- the user changes the grip on their sword and decapitates the opponent in a single quick strike that causes little to no pain.

fourth form: absolute zero

- the user walks slowly towards their opponent giving them a false sense of safety before doing blinding slashes to lacerate their opponents body.

fifth form: cold blue assault

- the swordsman simply dashes to the enemy and swiftly slashes them. this is the easiest form to master, but the weakest.

sixth form: blizzard

- the swordsman fiercely twists and rotates their upper and lower body, creating a blizzard that cuts anything caught in it.

seventh form: freezing wind, piercing cold

- the swordsman delivers a barrage of fast accurate stabs.

eighth form: frosty blade

- the user slices in front of them for a defensive move but if the opponent is close enough then they'll follow up with a sudden stab.

ninth form: dancing on thin ice

- minimizes the landing time and surface needed when landing, allowing the user to move without any limits.

tenth form: blizzard dragon god

- a dashing slash that is initiated from a high stance that takes the form of a dragon, can cause massive devastation and leave an icy ground.

Y/N KAMADO

Age:

- Y/n is the eldest of the Kamado siblings, three years older than Tanjiro.

- 13 when she leaves to start training to become a Demon Slayer.

- 18 when she becomes a Hashira.

- 19 during the main events of the Anime.

Description:

- This is a reader insert so I try not to describe her outside of minor details. If you notice that I for some reason refer to Y/n's eye color, hair color, skin color (..etc...) in this series then please let me know so I can remedy that.

Breath Type:

- Ice Breathing

-----

TAKESHI NAKANO

Age:

- Late 40's to Early 50's throughout the events of the series.

Description:

- Takeshi is described as taller than the reader, but since the reader doesn't have an exact height neither does he. So he's taller than the reader.

- He has a very muscular build, because of how often he spends making sure he's in tip top shape.

- Dark brown hair, but it's getting greyer throughout the book.

Breathing Type:

- Ice Breathing (former hashira)

About theories and wishes

Why this part is important to me and I think is important to HanaNene.

Guys, let’s get a little serious about this.

I need to talk about two things that are bothering me, first of all this scene from chapter 62.

The big question here is… why Hanako didn’t want Akane to kiss Yashiro FOR REAL? I mean he can’t hurt her doing that in any way, isn’t it? I’m wondering about this because I think now we can see clearly the relationship development for Hanako and Nene. He’s not really worried about her, her well doing and also her wishes, but… why is he keeping an eye with Nene’s crush/like for “hot” guys? We did see something about that when she was talking about her dream to meet a guy in the study camp earlier here. 

Like he wasn’t really into that idea… (Jelaous much?)

Now Akane didn’t use this move just to “bother” Hanako. He knew that Hanako didn’t want Yashiro to find out that Kou likes her as we see here:

Why? Seriously why? WHY this sounds like a big deal to Hanako?

In the past chapters he was afraid Mirai could fast-foward Yashir’s time because of her short lifespan, but know there is no “big threat” with Akane other than a kiss. A simple kiss, isn’t it? 

In my opinion and please let me be right this time, this is how Hanako started liking Yashiro for real and here is where I would like to talk about something that is really bothering me.

The time travel and the past

So, let’s se…

Chapter 46 is very important just like Chapter 22 (that time Tsukasa kidnapped her) and of course Chapters 13-14 you will se now why:

In Chapters 13-14 we get to see (and correct me if I’m wrong) for the first-time to Yugi Amane. It’s the first time we hear a little about his past and his love for astronomy, as well as we also know that he is abused by someone he always forgives (that surely we all suspect that itt’s Tsukasa, isn’t it?)

Now. Let’s try to get to this piece by piece:

I always wondered why Hanako wanted Tsuchigomori to keep his precious lunar rock. He said: “You worried about me and you want to help me” so he gives that thing to Tsuchigomori and that rock becomes his yorishiro.

I want to think that this Lunar Rock will be a key piece for the future. 

Now, back to Chapter 22:

This time Yashiro meets Amane in the past. 

The thing about this being important is because AidaIro choose to show us this thing:

Does July 18 sounds familiar? 

Tsuchigomori said that Hanako gave him his Lunar Rock a day before the man landed to the moon. This seems like a big day to Hanako.

Apollo 11 landed in the Moon on July 20

Perhaps Hanako gave his Lunar Moon then on July 19

This leaves July 18 the time when Yashiro gets to see Amane and AidaIro wanted to remark this day as a key piece to why Amane decided to abandon his dreams. 

Amane leaves behind a key with a rocket, but as long as I can remember the manga has not spoken of these keys again. I think they had something to do with what prevented Amane from fulfilling his wish and what happened on July 19.

The big deal about this is that Yashiro did travel back in time, we know this because she manages to keep the keys and bring them to the present.

Now. In Chapters 37-38 at the Tanabata’s festival we now get another time travel.

Yashiro meets Amane again and this is super important. She gives him all her tags so he can so that he can fulfill his desire to be an astronaut and go to the Moon.

This part is really emotional because Yashiro decides to abandon a desire of her own that is a big problem in her life (her complex for his ankles) in order to fulfill Amane’s wish.

Of course this is very important as well because it gives us a clue as to how (perhaps) Amane might have fallen in love with her back then. The question then is why can’t he remember it?

(Ahhh don’t tell me this is didn’t melt your heart?)

Maybe he does remember a little (or will remember in the future that he has met Yashiro before). Maybe this is a clue about that:

Amane did noticed her ankles before (just like everyone else tbh) but I bet Yashiro’s legs are complicated to forget.

Now, the Travel to the Moon looks like an important wish that Hanako and Yashiro want to complete as we saw in the Fake World Arch.

I’m really wondering about those keys and the importance of that Lunar Moon. 

I’m also wondering if Yashiro can change the past and if she does so, would Hanako then disappear?

Can Hanako change Yashiro’s future but that means she’s gonna grow up and leave him alone? He doesn’t want her to stay like him, and he doesn’t want her to be dead and I really want them to be together.

This is just too much and I didn’t talk about the Mermaid Curse that now bonds them together. We now have a lot of hints that they like eachother but now I’m really wishing for hints about them having a happy ending together. Hope to see that rocket keys in the future!

good afternoon uzui nation

Strawhats + believing in Luffy becoming the King of the Pirates

+ bonus, a proud brother Sabo:

The love hashira's tsuguko

Aoi knows a few things about Kanroji and one of them is that she's in love with her tsuguko; no one has seen him yet, but she talks a lot about him. His name is Kamado Tanjirou.

At first she thought that was going to be a problem because the serpent hashira is very much in love with Kanroji and everyone knows it, but one day Kocho asks about Tanjirou and it's not only Kanroji but Iguro who blushes to the tip of his ears.

Aoi can't help but look in confusion because she's never seen Iguro blush so much before.

"So... You've met him," the insect hashira asks, growing curious.

"Obanai has been with us a couple of times, he has dinner with us very often," Kanroji says with a very happy grin on her face.

"What do you think about Tanjirou?" Kocho asks suddenly, she has that smile on her face, the same expression she makes whenever she has just realized something interesting.

The blush deepens and Aoi tries not to gape in surprise at him.

"He's not bad..."

That coming from Iguro is almost like a love confession. That's why he hasn't said anything about Kanroji's enamoured attitude towards her tsuguko, he's in love too.

"I want to meet him," the insect hashira says suddenly.

"No," Iguro snaps immediately.

"Maybe later," Kanroji mumbles, although it's pretty much obvious she doesn't want that either.

Aoi rolls her eyes; they certainly seem to know nothing about their fellow hashira because that will probably make Kocho even more curious about the boy.

***

There's a trial, but it doesn't go the way Aoi expects it to go... It seems that not only Kanroji and Iguro did everything they can to hide Tanjirou from everyone else, they also were keeping Nezuko, the boy's sister, hidden from the others.

Now... That wouldn't be a big deal if she wasn't a demon.

Kanroji assures the other Pillars that Nezuko is good, that she hasn't hurt anyone since the love hashira rescued the Kamado siblings, but some of them find it hard to believe it.

Ubuyashiki reveals that Iguro had sent him a letter explaining everything a while ago and that Kanroji and he are more than willing to kill themselves if Nezuko hurts an innocent human.

Even though Ubuyashiki assures the others he believes in Nezuko and Tanjirou, Shinazugawa doesn't agree with him and the others are seriously considering to kill the demon before she hurts someone...

Iguro is about to have a fight with Shinazugawa as the others start arguing, but Ubuyashiki puts a finger over his lips to shut everyone up; it works like a charm.

"I have sent a message to Tanjirou a while ago. He must be here soon."

Just as he finishes the sentence a boy jumps down from the roof; he's carrying a wooden box on his back, although that's definitely not what draws everyone's attention.

Tanjirou kneels in front of Ubuyashiki, making even more obvious that he's wearing an uniform very similar to the love hashira's. However, Tanjirou's thighs are huge, the stockings are too tight and the skirt is constantly sliding up his legs. It's even worse when he's kneeling.

Aoi rolls her eyes when Rengoku faceplants on the ground because he was leaning over to get a better look of the boy.

Tokito seems fascinated by the boy's long hair, Aoi doesn't blame him, Tanjirou's hair is deep red, tied up into a ponytail that makes his face look adorable somehow. He's really beautiful.

That's one of the reasons why no one says a thing when Tanjirou starts telling them what happened the night Nezuko was turned and how Kanroji saved them both.

The love hashira is looking at him with the most besotted grin Aoi has ever seen, although she's not the only one...

"Nezuko and Tanjirou have my support now," the stone hashira says after a while.

"I really appreciate it, Himejima-san!" Tanjirou beams in response. It almost seems like he's shining.

Aoi observes that the boy seems familiar with the Pillars' names which means that Kanroji has talked to him about them before.

Shinazugawa blinks a couple of times but tries to focus.

"I'm still not sure about the demon."

Tanjirou puts the box on the floor carefully, although he still makes sure to cover it with his body. He narrows his eyes at the wind hashira.

"I won't let you come near Nezuko," he almost growls, which surprises Aoi for a moment because he looks so cute and kind it's interesting to see he also has a feral side as well.

All the hashira seem to like that.

Shinazugawa's cheeks start turning slightly pink under Tanjirou's fierce look, although the scowl on his face doesn't vanish.

"I'm... not going to hurt your sister."

Tanjirou relaxes just a bit, although what actually breaks the tension is Uzui's shameless comment.

"You're hot when you're mad, Tanjirou. Now I have started to understand why Mitsuri wanted to keep you all to herself..."

At the end they decide to protect Nezuko, although Aoi is almost sure it's mostly to please the cute boy they just met. Honestly, she never imagined she would ever see the Pillars acting like teenagers in love.

After the meeting, Tomioka approaches the boy and introduces himself; he's blushing so much Aoi worries for a moment... He's purposely avoiding looking at Tanjirou's bare chest or his huge thighs.

"My boy! Do you know I used to train Mitsuri? I can train you too!" Of course the flame hashira is all over the boy, eyes glimmering with adoration already.

Kocho is the one that finally manages to keep the boy's attention by mentioning there are a couple of rooms in the butterfly estate where Nezuko can rest for a while.

***

It gets worse after that. Tanjirou starts training in the butterfly estate, mostly because Ubuyashiki told Kanroji it was better for him to spend time with other demon slayers; she wasn't that happy (turns out the love hashira is actually a little bit possessive after all) but agreed immediately.

Now Aoi and the butterfly girls get to see him quite often, which is not bad at all because the boy is a sunshine and he also tries to help them as much as he can.

The problem is that he's pretty, he trains with that short skirt of his, which turns him into some sort of magnet for... almost anyone actually.

The slayers watch him in awe and blush until they're completely red whenever Tanjirou notices them staring and smiles at them in return.

Sadly, they quickly learn Tanjirou is completely off limits; the Pillars are not subtle at all when it comes to show their affection towards the love hashira's tsuguko. They also gather around him whenever he's training (paying close attention to the way the skirt moves around his hips when he's trying different things with his katana).

Himejima is the lucky one who has had Tanjirou all over his lap a couple of times because whenever he asks to feel Tanjirou's soft features, the boy is more than willing to comply.

Aoi has never had so many Pillars in the estate at the same time; all of them act like idiots in love, constantly smiling at Tanjirou and praising him for his sword skills. Rengoku is usually bringing him food, Tomioka has "corrected" his posture a couple of times even after Kanroji tells him there's no need to touch her Tanjirou.

Iguro hisses whenever Uzui flirts with Tanjirou (or at least tries to because the boy is painfully oblivious). Kocho is the one who patches the boy's wounds whenever he comes back from a mission and Tokito has managed to brush Tanjirou's hair more than once.

Shinazugawa... It seems to Aoi that he's having a hard time trying to make it up to Tanjirou for saying all those things about his sister during the trial.

They're... All of them are like a bunch of teenagers in love and of course Aoi has to deal with that now.

Life is not fair.
