The Scenario: After the Muzan Wars

Setting: A quiet porch at the Butterfly Mansion, late afternoon. The air is clear, free of the scent of demons for the first time in centuries.

Short Version (The Essence)

Giyuu sat as stiff as a statue while you knelt between his knees, stitching a lingering wound on his shoulder. The silence was heavy until he looked down at your focused expression.

"You're wasting your time," he muttered, his voice cold.

You paused, hurt. "I’m just trying to help you heal, Tomioka-san."

Giyuu’s hand—the only one he had left—trembled slightly before he placed it firmly on your head, forcing you to look up. His ears were crimson. "I meant... the wound is fine. But if you finish, you'll leave. Don't finish."
