❝ No need … No fuckin’ need … ! ❞  Wee doe has done nothing but pace , stuck in an ongoing motion of worrying a hole into the polished floor of the fae-god’s temple whilst he looks on at them with bemusement.  His complete l a c k of concern is what truly ruffles them , it only adds to their heated grumbling , fueling the blaze of their ire ( & they are indeed ablaze , every motion back & forth marked by cresting cinders crackling wildly from their soles ) .  It feels a lot as if the greater god is m o c k i n g them , coddling them by altogether dismissing their worries with humoring , beguiling words as one might a fitful infant.  And if Kaen truly admitted themself to be the bastard of the fae ( as they’ve oft’ been called ) , they might think to e m b r a c e the character of one and act accordingly , to consider causing some REAL HAVOC right there within the temple.  Yet they also know it would do no good ; it would win them no favors nor blessings.  Already they have disgraced their father’s blood , it would not suit to tarnish their name f u r t h e r by instigating the scorn of another God.
A deep , calming breath is drawn into lungs , exhaled as fiery smoke through the mouth.  They pivot in place , turning to acknowledge the deity peacefully observing them nearby.  Tightly , the godling balls their fists , holding their hands ( & their fire ) dormant.  ❝ Ah think Ah’ve got e’ry right ta’ be upset considerin’ w h e r e Ah am , ❞ Head tips , moving to glance warily about the place , furred ears lowering atop their antlered head.  And so soon is their agitation beginning to fade into a roused a n x i e t y , the marks of fear beginning to etch over their fawny features.  It is true , they entered his territory by pure HAPPENSTANCE , but fae rite dictates that they MAY NOT BE ABLE TO LEAVE , either ; a trespass is still – unfortunately for Kaen – a trespass , no matter one’s heritage or place amid the eternal hierarchy.  ❝ An’ w h o Ah’m speakin’ ta’ , ❞ They add on , their gaze shifting back to him , eyeing him , sizing him up with a curious scrutiny.
❝ Ye’ll ‘ave ta’ fergive me , Ah dun’ really talk ta’ this side o’ m’family anymore , ❞ The fae , they mean to imply , ❝ So Ah’m not sure wha’s proper an’ wha’ isn’t. ❞  Do they bow ?  Do they express gratitude for his not immediately butchering them ?  All they r e a l l y want to do is spit on the floor and march right back into the wood— But their soul feels SHACKLED , rooted into place.  They cannot leave without his saying the word.  ❝ … Will ye lemme go … m’lord ? ❞  The moniker seems like an afterthought , tossed in with no sore lack of forced , embittered reluctance.  How bold of them to question this creature so d i r e c t l y , too , though Kaen knew to be ballsy when it mattered ( or when it could get them killed ) .

Hi guys, meet my KNY OC ♥ Kind of afraid to post this here but I wanna post here again too. Information below: Name: Mayu - 満 (ma) meaning "full" and 夕 (yu) meaning "evening”
Akimitsu - 昭 (aki) meaning "bright, luminous" and 光 (mitsu) meaning "light Age: 15 Gender: Girl Height: 157 cm | Almost 5'2" Weight: 50.53 kg Race: Human Affiliation: None Breath Style: None Seiyuu: Takahashi Rie Personnality: Positive: Caring - Faithful - Hard Working - Organized - Reliable - Compassionate Negative: Compulsive - Sensitive - Moody - Resentful - A nervous wreck # Mayu tends to get extra nervous or stressed when she hears really loud noises. # Mayu's hobby is preparing tea. Since she's an expert in herbology, she knows the properties of plants and can prepare teas suiting people's needs. Backstory: Mayu lost both of her parents and only has two older brothers left, an elder and a younger one. Her mother passed away in her youth from an incurable disease and her father did not too long before she turned 11, dying from complications of a common cold. Suffering both her parents' loss from illnesses is what pushed Mayu to become a healer. She has a vast knowledge in medicinal herbs (kampo herbs are some of them) and will accept to heal any Demon Slayer who needs it. She's worked for the Pillars in a few occasions in the past when them or a great number of Demons Slayers where injured. She has learned to respect Shinobu's great medical expertise as she became her apprentice in this area and has learned a lot directly from her. The idea of becoming a Demon Slayer did cross her mind but she's aware of her frail body and knows she's not fit to be one. She wouldn't be able to become a tsuguko even if she wanted. Mayu is absolutely distrustful of demons, like most people. At 13, she was horrified to discover a childhood friend of hers and her younger borther had turned into a demon. Despite being scared, she hid him with her younger brother so he wouldn't get killed. One evening, after having been on a walk to find herbs, she came back home only to discover her brother injured and his arm partly eaten by her friend. He pleaded saying that he was starving and "that's what friends are for". Since he knew he knew people would eventually find out about him, he went for the kill. Despite her physical disadvantage, Mayu killed her demon friend to defend her brother and herself. She had to amputate her brother's arm after this and still holds a lot of guilt for what happened to him, pushing her to work harder than before. A doctor came and finished the job properly and made sure her brother would be okay. Her older brother who was out of town for work only came back days later and was horrifed. The event led him to believe that Mayu is absolutely clueless about everything and shouldn't be given any responsibility. This led Mayu to become extremely careful about everything she did, to the point of obsession. Because of her experience, Mayu cannot trust Nezuko, even when confronted with the fact she obviously doesn't want to eat humans and even protect them. She's convinced Nezuko will eventually crack and turn against her brother and will be absolutely confused with her beliefs when time passes and Nezuko still hasn't eaten anything. Relationships ☾ Kamado Tanjirou | Love Interest - [work in progress] ☾ Kamado Nezuko | Future sister-in-law - [work in progress] ☾ Akimitsu Kurohai (黒灰 meaning "black" and "ash") | Elder brother - A  Tsuchinoto Demon Slayer manipulating the Breath of Flames. Due to their parents dying, Kurohai is responsible for his younger siblings and tends to be a bit controling. His relationship with Mayu is pretty conflicted. He cannot forgive her for living their younger brother at home alone with a demon, resulting in him losing his arm. Kurohai has the same king of mindset as their father about women's places in society, but in an even more mysoginistic way. Kurohai doesn't the stand the fact some women actually made it among the Pillars. As for Mayu, he's actively trying to find her a party for her to marry. He doesn't take her medical knowledge seriously and thinks she'd be more useful having children. Really deep down, Kurohai knows Mayu wasn't responsible for what happened and that he was also to blame. He projects all of his insecurities onto her because of it, but also because Mayu was their mother's favorite child, something he had trouble coping with because their mother rarely gave him attention. Despite his harsh behavior, he’d put his life on the line for her in a heartbeat, without a shred of doubt. ☾ Akimitsu Kaen (火炎 meaning "blaze/flame") | Younger brother - Kaen is close with Mayu. One would think their incident would've had an impact on their relationship, but not. It was difficult in the beginning but he quickly made peace with her because there was simply "nothing to forgive". It was a mistake they had both done and taking their demon friend had been his idea. They're really close to each other. Nowadays, Kaen is a member of the Kakushi, the cleanup brigade of the Demon Slayer Corps and can only assist in simple tasks. ☾ Akimitsu Kōsa (黄砂 meaning "yellow" and "sand", together "golden sand/dust") | Mother (dead) -  Mayu cannot remember her mother a lot. Kōsa was very ill and frail and passed away when Mayu was only six years old. This was really traumatic to her and little brother who forgot a lot of their memories from this period in time. Despite her incomplete memories of her, Mayu remembers her mother as a kind and loving woman who could get along with almost anybody. They were very close before the tragic outcome. Kōsa always encouraged her to do the right thing and to not let others decide what she should be or do for her. ☾ Akimitsu Dangai (断崖 meaning "disconnect" and "cliff", together "cliff/precipice)) | Father (dead) - Mayu had a good connection with her father. She remember him as a loving but also strict man. He was affectionate with his children but did not hesitate to put his foot down if he thought they were going astray from the path they has decided for them. Dangan did not want Mayu to become a doctor, simply to get a good husband and become a housewife and mother and they often argued about it. But Dangai only desired it thinking it would be the best for her to live a good life, she loved his children, including Mayu, with all his heart. When his wife passed away, he lost heart for a while but still worked hard to provide for them. He eventually passed away from the complications of a common cold, due to working too hard. Mayu inherited this hardworking side of him, to the point of repeating the cycle. She often overworks herself, to the regret of those around her. ☾ Kocho Shinobu | Mentor and Friend - Mayu came into contact with Shinobu after her elder brother became a Demon Slayer. She noticed her medical knowledge but saw that she had only been able to learn so little, because of the little ressources they had on the subject. Shinobu offered Mayu to become her apprentice. She also asked her later if she'd be interested in becoming her Tsuguko, which Mayu declined, knowing fully she didn't have what it takes to be a Pillar, less a Demon Slayer. Mayu respects Shinobu a lot and admires her greatly. They also develop a close bond along the way, seeing each other as friends. ☾ Tomioka Giyuu | Friend - Mayu has a really weird friendship with Giyu. Ultimately, they don't interact with each other a lot but the two of them are not that talkative to begin with. But it's because of that that they see each other as one of the only people they can get along with : because they don't waste their time talking to say absolutely nothing. She also respects his skills a lot and wished her older brother would take an example on him and the other Pillars instead of slacking or bragging about how he could become a Pillar immediatly if he wanted it. ☾ Mizuhana (Rengoku) Otoha (Friend’s OC) | Cousin - [work in progress] ☾ Homura Satoshi  (Friend’s OC) | Friend- [work in progress]
