    Summary

    She has the bathroom door locked and Makima’s legs spread on the sink, her tongue shoved between her thighs, when fingers curl in her hair and the devil says, “Three guesses.”

    Quanxi pauses, coming up for air. “What?”

    “Three guesses,” Makima is unfazed by all of her hard work below the belt, her breaths even and her cheeks lacking color, “for my real name. You get three guesses.”

    “And if I’m wrong all three times?”

    Her nails dig into Quanxi’s scalp. “You become my dog. I can’t stand to leave a stray out on the street.”

    OR

    Quanxi meets Makima at a bar. A year later, she moves to China.

    Summary

    Blood seeped from the corner of her mouth, but she paid the coppery taste no mind. She couldn’t afford to die here, not when Shinobu was surely back at the Estate already, waiting for her. She had to make it home.

    Kanae would not fall. Her pride as a Demon Slayer— no, as a Kocho woman— was on the line.

    This is a story of the late Kochou Kanae; a sister, friend, and Flower Pillar of both beauty and unyielding strength.

    Summary

    Shinobu extends her hand out, slowly, feeling cool rain on her arms. The scent of flowers spread everywhere, mixing in with the moist air and pouring droplets. She closes her eyes for a moment. It would have been a nice day.

    She walks for a little while, past the streets that became so familiar to her after all these years, past the little udon shop with the nice old man who served them dishes for free when they were younger, past the spa her sister used to go to all the time, past the clearing in the forest nearby, the place where no one can hear them as they cry for their parents.

    Memories flash in her mind as she walks by the streets that slowly became her home. It was a place of new beginnings, of possibility, of hope. It was a place, offered to two small girls, newly turned orphans, to recover and heal from the life behind them. They were young, alone, and devastated, but they had eachother.

    She opens her eyes to the entrance of the cemetery.

    And now it’s only a few years later, and Shinobu is truly alone.

    Summary

    Soft light eyes, soft jawline, delicate steady hands.
    Delicate, delicate, delicate. Like a wilting flower, or a small bug, the ones that exist to be crushed under someone’s foot without a second thought. Once they’re gone, people forget the insect was there at all.
