Sanemi x Sister Reader x Genya

Sanemi saw his younger sister enter the estate while he was practicing in the estate's backyard out of the corner of his eye.

As his sister entered the estate with tears slowly running down her cheeks, he arched an eyebrow in her direction. "What's wrong, little sis?" While waiting to approach her, he questioned.

You ignored him and walk up stairs in a hurry

His expression turned to one of annoyance as he stayed still, watching his younger sister ignore him all as she walked up the stairs in a hurry. "Hm, you aren't going to answer me? I see, then I guess I'll have to go up there." He muttered, stopping his training.

When you got to your bedroom, you entered and slammed the door behind you

Sanemi let out a breath as he made it to your door. He really can't stand it when his little sister's being childish like this. "Don't make me open this door myself." He said, but he was going to do it either way.

"Just leave me be." Your voice sounds broken

"Not a chance, I don't tolerate this sort of immature behavior." He said, and with that, he opened the door to his younger sisters room, the door creekling loudly as it opened.

When Sanemi looked in the room, he saw you laying in your bed, letting your tears fall as you were under the cover and hugging your pillow

"Ah, for the gods' sake." He muttered, walking over to his younger sister, his hand on his hip. He stands by the bed. "Just what are you crying about this time, Y/N." He asked, his eyes on her the entire time.

You don't look at your older brother. "My boyfriend broke up with me because I wasn't ready to have sex yet." You buried your face in your pillow, you said gently.

Sanemi expression softened as he looked at his little sister, now a bit sympathetic towards her. "Ah, a girl your age shouldn't be dating anyway." He said with a sigh, sitting down next to his younger sister. "Listen, forget about him. If he only cared about you for his desire to "do it, " then he isn't the right guy for you. "

"But I thought he was the one I really did,"

"Well, the so-called "one" isn't going to break up with you just so he can get "some", your still young, eventually you'll meet a guy who actually cares for you, and doesn't break up with you like that." Sanemi said calmly, patting your head gently as he tried to cheer you up.

You stay still, not moving as tears still fall down your cheeks onto the pillow.

"Come on, don't be all sad just because one boy broke up with you." He said with a laugh, hoping to just make you feel better. "Just know that there'll be someone out there who'll care for you who wouldn't break up with you because they're not getting "something" in return." He then turned and picked you up and set you on his lap as he continued to pat your head gently to try and ease you.

You ley your head on his chest "But he was the 3rd guy to break up with me, Sanemi. What I'm doing wrong for guys to break up with me? Am I that much of a burden or something? " You said softly

"Look at me, Y/N." He said softly, but in the tone of a command, he looked at you as he put a finger under your chin and lifted your head up to look at him. "You're not a burden, a bother, nothing of the sort. It's just that some men don't understand that their partner isn't always ready yet, and when you aren't, they show their true colors." He said, smiling gently to you. "Don't worry too much about it, okay? You'll find someone someday."

You nodded and gave a small smile "Thank you, brother."

"Ah, it's nothing, little sis." He said with a chuckle as he continued to pat your head gently. He then pulled you closer as he hugged you tightly, giving you a comforting hug.

"Do you feel better now?" He asked. "I can't take seeing you being this sad." He said, his tone soft as he spoke to you.

"Yeah, I feel better,"

"Good." He said, smiling gently as he gently ran his fingers through your hair, still hugging you. "Is it alright if I stay with you for a bit?" He asked, his tone still sounding soft.

"I would love it if you did." You smiled and ley your head on your brother shoulder.

"Then it shall be so." He said with a light chuckle. He then kissed you on the forehead, his expression still seeming soft. "I love you, you know." He whispered gently as he still kept his little sister close.

"And I love you and Genya, my two older brothers." You smiled and leaned away to look at Sanemi

"I'm surprised you actually do." He said with a soft chuckle. "Genya's quite the troublemaker, wouldn't think you'd like him." He said, ruffling your hair.

you scowled at Sanemi when he ruffled up your hair. "Sanemiii!" You patted your hair and fixed it back. "He's also our brother. Why wouldn't I like him?"

"Alright, alright, my apologies." He said with a chuckle as he stopped ruffling up your hair. "I just thought you'd hate him because of how much of an idiot he is." He said, giggling a bit. "I love him, yes, but he is an idiot."

"Oh, and you're not?" You chuckled.

"I'm not an idiot!" He said, laughing as he looked at his younger sister. "I'm a whole bunch of things, but an idiot is not one of them." He said with a proud look on his face.

"Suuure." You raise one eyebrow

His eye was narrowed as he looked over at you, but eventually, he just let out a soft chuckle. "Don't you 'suure' me." He said with a teasing look on his face.

You looked up at Sanemi with a mischievous smile. "Suuure"

He groaned and started to tickle her. "Your 'sure's' are getting on my nerves!" He said as he continued tickling his younger sister.

You laughed and squirm around, trying to get away from Sanemi. "SANEMI! HAHAHA, STOP!!"

He chuckled, now just tickling Monique harder, even going as far as to get on top of his younger sister in order to completely pin her so he could tickle her better.

You laughed so much that tears were coming out of your eyes. "OK, OK! TRUCE! I SURRENDER HAHAHAHA!!!"

He continued tickling his younger sister for a few more seconds before finally stopping, now leaning over her as he tried to catch his breath. "Finally surrendered, have you?" He said, grinning down at you.

You breathed heavily and smiled up at Sanemi. "For now,"

His expression soon turned into one of a smirk, knowing fully well that you would want to tickle him back. "Oh? For now?" He said with a smile of his own.

You smirked and flipped the two of you over so you're on top and Sanemi were under you. You start tickling Sanemi back.

"AHAHAHAHA! STOP, STOP!" He chuckled a bit, squirming around as he tried to free himself. "I SURRENDER, I SURRENDER!" He said as a grin spread across his face as you stopped tickling him.

"Pay backs a bitch isn't it" You stand up.

He nodded as he sat up, now a bit out of breath after your attack on him. He then picked you up and pin you down again, tickling you on purpose now as he wanted his payback. "Payback truly is a bitch." He said with a smirk, trying to tickle you.

"SANEMI! HAHAHAHA, I GIVE UP!!" You laughed and try to get away.

He grinned as you gave up, but he still kept tickling you for a few more seconds before finally stopping. He then sat on the edge of the bed, still laughing some, smiling at you now. "That was a lot of fun." He said, still grinning at you. Thinking of the days when you and all your other siblings could run and play.

You smiled and breathed heavy, sitting next to Sanemi on the end of the bed. "I agree"

Genya walked in and stood by your bedroom door. "the hell all that noise is?"

you and Sanemi looked at each other for a second then smirked and looked towards Genya. Sanemi chuckled a bit, getting ready as he looked at his younger sister then towards their brother, a smirk still being on his face. "You'll find out soon enough, Genya." He said, now glancing over at Genya.

Genya sweat drop and slowly backs away "I don't think I want to find out" Genya turned to run down the hall, but you jumped and tackle him.

You pinned Genya down then looked to Sanemi. "I'll hold him down, you get him Sanemi!"

He looked down at Genya and saw him trying to run away. "Alright!" He said to you, now running over to Genya. He then started to tickle Genya as hard as he could.

Genya laughed and try to get the two of his siblings off of him "GET OFF, HAHAHA! I'LL KILL THE BOTH OF YOU!!"

"Ah, you wanna play that game huh?" Sanemi asked, laughing as he started tickling Genya even more. "We're not done yet, little brother." He said, still grinning from ear to ear.

You laughed as you hold Genya hands down above his head.

Genya couldn't take it anymore. "FINE, I SURRENDER!!" Genya laughed and squirm around.

You looked to Sanemi "you think we should let him go, sanemi?"

"Haha, why should we? He's still squirming around." He said, continuing to tickle Genya as he chuckled. His attention then turned to you, and he nodded. "Nah, we shouldn't yet." He replied, still grinning at his younger sister.

You and Sanemi had mischievous smirked on your faces as you both continued tickling Genya.

"YOU TWO ARE EVIL!! HAHAHAHA!" Genya squirm around, hoping to get away from his siblings.

"Ah, what are you talking about, Genya?" He said jokingly, continuing to tickle him. "Y/N, hold him even tighter." He said, wanting to see how long Genya could go being tickled like this.

You smiled and laughed, holding Genya down tighter so he doesn't get away.

"HAHAHAHA, I SURRENDER!!"

"Hmm, he surrendered too quickly. We should keep going." He said, still grinning as he looked at you, trying to convince you to keep holding Genya and not let him go. "Let's go a few more seconds, Y/N." He said, wanting to tickle Genya just a bit more.

"I agree Sanemi" You started to tickle Genya also.

As the two of them continued to tickle Genya, he was now squirming a lot more than before, trying to get free in any possible way. "Ah, he's trying to escape, Y/N." Sanemi said with a chuckle, still not letting up even though Genya was already saying surrender. But Genya found a way out and tripped us.

They both fell on the floor, but Sanemi quickly got back up as he saw Genya trying to make a run for it. He quickly tackle Genya however and continued to tickle him again. "Oh, you think I'd let you go that easily?" Sanemi asked with a smirk.

You got up and went help Sanemi tickle Genya as he laughed and squirm. "I SURRENDER! NO MORE!!"

"Ahh, alright, alright. We'll stop. Your no fun though, Genya." Sanemi said with a smirk. He then let go of his younger brother, his eyes glancing over at you. "We had our fun, didn't we, Y/N?" He asked, still grinning from ear to ear.

You nodded and stand up. "Yeah, we sure did"

Genya got up and looked at both you and Sanemi. "what got you two in tickle mode?"

You kelp quiet.

Sanemi, on the other hand, stand up and didn't keep quiet on the issue once Genya asked. "Ah, it was because Y/N's boyfriend broke up with her because she didn't want to have sex yet." He said with a sigh, not caring that much about whether you would have been mad at him for spilling the beans.

Genya was shocked for a moment then felt angry "that bastard didn't force you did he?"

You shake your head. "no, he didn't"

Sanemi looked rather relive as he heard it, his eyes looking at you for a moment before his attention turned back to Genya. "He just broke up with her because she didn't want to have sex with him." He explained to Genya, a look of disgust spreading across his face when he said that.

"one way it was good that he broke up with me, we was only going out for 3 months"

"Still, 3 months is a long time, Monique." Sanemi said, looking at his younger sister. "Don't you think he is a bit of a perv for breaking it off with you for that reason?" Sanemi asked as he looked down at you, he was curious to see what your thoughts on the matter were.

"yeah" You scratch the back of your head and sigh.

"There, don't feel so bad about it anymore, he's a perv who just wanted to sleep with you." He said with a soft chuckle, trying to comfort you. "You'll find another, better guy, Y/N, one that will stick with you for ages, who won't break up with you for such lame reasons." He said as he hugged her, wanting to make his younger sister feel better.

Genya came closer and also hug his sister

"I'm so happy I got older brothers who care for me"

"That's just our job, to protect you." Genya said with a light chuckle.

"Yeah, it's bad enough that you're the youngest, but now you also have to go through a lame breakup, that's double the reason of why us older brothers have to protect you. We need to be there for you." Sanemi continued to hug Monique, making him and Genya squeeze their younger sister from both sides.

----------------------------------------------------

If there's any errors, I'm sorry.

This story will suck but I thought of this, and I didn't see anyone else did this.

Sanemi Shinazugawa x Kyojiro's little sister! Reader

(Y/n) quietly wandered around the wisteria filled area, the 9-year-old had been living with her older brother Kyojuro ever since he moved out of the family home. Being a girl had earned her father's distain, he had commented about it enough around her during visits that it didn't exactly go over her head. When Kyojuro had gotten his own home, their father had all but thrown her to her big brother, thankfully Kyojuro adored her and had made sure she never felt unloved. Today had been one of Kyojuro's few days off after returning from a long job, Ubuyashiki-sama had been willing to let the little girl stay with them while Kyojuro was gone and while she loved her time playing with the other kids, she did miss her brother. That's why that day they had decided to spend their time in the town, shopping and trying out some of the small restaurants and food stalls they had yet to go to.

Unfortunately, the Hashira's crow had found them, informing Kyojuro of a small meeting that would be held at the nearby headquarters. Since they were already out Kyojuro decided to bring the young (H/c) head with him, that way they could just continue their day after. Once arriving he decided to leave (Y/n) outside to play in the wisteria, reminding her the meeting would be held around back and if she absolutely needed him to call for him or come get him. That lead to now, she had wondered into the wisteria forest. She could still see the top floor of the building; the young girl was heading towards the pathway that separates the wisteria field location from the regular forest to try and find some of the colorful flowers they passed on the way. It didn't take long for the dirt path to come into view, though an odd voice breaking the silence made her stop in her advancement towards the trail.

Bright (E/c) eyes gazed around the beautiful location until they landed on a man clearly out of place, he was older and quite dirty in appearance. "What's a pretty thing like you doing way out here?" He slowly stalked closer to the young girl, though his voice was kind enough something about him made her uncomfortable. She glanced back at the large building in the distance, trying to calmly back away and wandering if she'd be able to make it Kyojuro if she called for him.

Meanwhile Kyojuro stood among the other Hashira, so far, the meeting hadn't been anything to dreadfully important. Mostly just the Hashira meeting to exchange information they've gathered and discuss their recent jobs, though soon all eyes fell on an 8-year-old with white hair who came running out. Nichika had gone outside to see if (Y/n) wanted to play after hearing she was there, but when going out front she didn't see her anywhere. "(Y/n)'s gone, I can't find her!" These words made everything stop for Kyojuro, everyone else had been left confused. No one knew of his baby sister, something he would fix after this. "Kyojuro, we need to find your little sister. Just because it is daytime doesn't mean there aren't monster about." It was Ubuyashiki-sama's voice that cut through the confusion, gathering the fire Hashira's attention and reminding him he couldn't panic.

"Guys I'll explain later, but right now I need your help. The forest in this area can be dense and she's still a little girl." This was all he needed to say, the Hashira were quick to scatter. All moved to the front and broke off into different directions, Sanemi had chosen to head straight out from the building. His movements were quick, and he was careful to keep his eyes open, though it was the loud rustling of pounding feet that caught his attention. He looked around confused before feeling something slam into his stomach, he placed one foot back to anchor himself and when he looked down, he saw a little girl at his feet. She was panting and had wisteria flowers all over her, since there was only one missing kid, he knew of in the immediate area he knew she had to be little (Y/n). Though soon another set of footsteps could be heard, looking up he saw a grown man come lumbering through the brush. Clearly having struggled to make it through the dense undergrowth.

Sanemi was quick to pull the girl to her feet and push her behind him, he could tell the man was looking for the kid as he looked around before spotting the two. The small male immediately fixed his posture and put on a sickly-sweet smile; it made the wind Hashira's stomach turn at how obviously fake it was. "I'm sorry sir, it seems my daughter ran off after a scolding. Would you mind returning her?" That one statement had more red flags than the entertainment district, and because the male wasn't completely color blind, he raised a very judgy eyebrow. "You know... If you're gonna lie about something, you should really try harder to not be so obvious about it." Those words made the male across from him pale when combined with Sanemi's reaching for his blade, though when the mystery man backed up, he found himself he had hit a wall. Or rather a quite large Gyomei, it was in that moment the other Hashira had made themselves known and dropped from the trees around Sanemi.

The little girl had clung to the scarred male's leg, not really recognizing anyone at first, at least until she heard her brother's voice combined with his footsteps. At the sight of overwhelming numbers, the man was quick to turn east and flee, an angry Sanemi throwing swears and curses at the male just as Kyojuro reached the group. Once in sight the 9-year-old was quick to cling to her big brother, tiny body shaking as he scooped her up. "From now on your coming into the meeting with me, I'm not leaving you alone again." His words were spoken in a softer voice than usual, making the girl nod and mutter out her apologies for wandering off. "You better not fucking lose her again, next time you're buying me lunch." The male huffed and crossed his arms, watching Kyojuro set the girl down before giving Sanemi a bow. "It won't happen again, thank you for finding her Shinazugawa-san." The little girl had run over and gave the blonde's legs a hug, looking up at him with her big innocent eyes. "Thank you for protecting me..."

Sanemi sighed, giving her an awkward pat on the head. "No problem, just don't make a habit out of stirring up trouble I ain't saving ya again brat." His words had made the young girl giggle, a soft blush covering her cheeks as she looked at the taller man. This made him quirk an eyebrow, poking her in the forehead. "What now? What are you laughing at." (Y/n) had let go of him and backed up, rubbing her forehead as her blush deepened. "Nothing!" She ran back over to her brother, hugging his leg and hiding her little face. Question marks could be seen floating around Sanemi as some of the others chuckled, members like Shinobu and Tengen already knowing this incident could lead to the little girl developing her first crush. After all, in her eyes he was a hero as of now. "Come on, let's head back to the headquarters and wrap up the meeting." Kyojuro's cheerful voice caught everyone's attention, the fiery male scooping up his little sister and heading towards the building with the group. Kyojuro would probably carry her back to town and even still he'd be sticking close to her after that.

Kyojuro smiled as he led his little sister back to her room after dinner, planning to help her brush out her hair and get ready for bed as usual. After the meeting had ended, they had gone on with their day, doing a bit of shopping and goofing off. Kyojuro would be lying to say he didn't spoil her a little after what she went through earlier, he knew she wouldn't be wandering off anytime soon after that though. "So, what did you think about meeting the Hashira?" He smiled as she sat in front of a mirror, the older male grabbing her comb and beginning to brush her hair out. "They were really nice; it was really fun watching Sanemi get so mad!" Her lighthearted giggles filled the room at the memory, making the male's smile widen. "Yeah, he's always been a little firecracker!"

His laughter mixed with hers, to his surprise she had enjoyed the meeting and Ubuyashiki-sama had enjoyed answering her occasional questions. They had hung around a bit after so she could get familiar with everyone, occasionally going to pester Sanemi with questions. Though he'd call her a brat and act rather grumpy he didn't seem to mind her otherwise, or at the least he showed her more tolerance than most would expect. Kyojuro knew he wouldn't be able to resist the cinnamon roll that was his baby sister, the little girl was just too nice. "Who was your favorite out of everyone?" He asked this already knowing her answer, while she enjoyed Mitsuri and Gyomei (who was more than willing to gently toss the girl in the air and catch her a few times, leading to a series of happy squeals and joyous laughs) she still found a way to make it back to the blonde male. "Sanemi! He's really interesting and his reactions are really funny!" The girl's cheeks had begun to go pink once more as her brother finished brushing her hair. "I see, well Sanemi is definitely a character. Pretty strong too, he's got a knack for fighting." The male was careful when tucking her into her futon, watching the girl yawn with a smile before kissing her forehead. "Sleep well, I'll be in my room next door. I have some letters to read so come get me if you need me." He left one small candle burning in the corner, he didn't want to plunge her into darkness, and it helped her sleep better. "Alright, goodnight Kyo..." The young girl had curled up and was asleep before her brother had even shut the door. Once back at his desk he chuckled a bit as he reflected on the day, he wasn't blind, and Shinobi had made passing comments on how cute it would be if his baby sister had a crush on the wind Hashira. He couldn't help but bristle at the idea of his baby sister already getting a crush, he knew she'd likely grow out of it but still even he knew how much of a bad boy Sanemi was. And if that ended up being her type when she grew up, he'd be kicking himself later for all the trouble her cute self is gonna cause for him and the other Hashira.

Okay what do we think about the SaneKana Snow White/Royalty AU?

Summary: Kanae is a rising monarch who is forced to go on the run by Douma (the evil queen of the story). Shinobu is in her Arya Stark era and is her sister’s sworn knight. Sanemi is the Huntsman-turned-Prince Charming who is initially sent to kill Kanae for Douma but can’t do it. The other Hashira are the equivalent of the dwarves (but they’re really a ragtag team of bodyguards for the royal sisters). Kanae is also a poison master (which is important for the poisoning aspect of Snow White lmao). Multi-part fic idea.

Ofc there would be smut but it would be a slower burn

What do y’all think? Add it to the WIP pile?

Thinking about being such a Demon Slayer fan that you literally have every merchandise possible: posters, figurines, plushies, magnets, haori and even the character's accessories. You've even dyed your hair in (character)'s iconic colour scheme and style.

But that wasn't enough for you, so you decided to go to Japan. Hey, the tourism was good, and if you got to buy and explore more of your favourite anime, bonus!

So you arrive and wander the streets gawking in awe with full shopping bags in your hands, humming Gurenge under your breath. You were so lost in your daydreams you slam into someone - sorry, two people.

Cue your apologies as you scramble to your feet, but a melodic voice interrupts you with assurances that it was alright as two pairs of hands help pick up your fallen items. You look up to see a pair of petite sisters with matching blue-tinged hair and smiles.

"That's a nice hairpin!" Was what the elder and taller of the two called out as they continued to walk past you, and you self consciously raise a hand to the Kocho family butterfly pin in your hair.

You continue your walk downtown, strolling past screens with the world famous Tenma Uzui's face plastered on it as he lifted his latest medal and advertised products. At the toy store you had paused to look into, three youngsters rushed out with their newfound prizes in hand.

"Sabito! Give it back!"

"Hey, you already said we'd swap!"

"Until Makomo said she'd give me hers!"

You glance at them out of the corner of your eye and laugh seeing them fight over the colours of the warding masks. An old man with a red face mask stepped out of the shop shortly after and began to shepherd the trio away.

Seeing the Gashapon machines inside the store, you decide to step in too, but before you could the door flew open and a short, purple-haired man tumbled out. Clearly he had been kicked out but he wasn't taking the hint.

Inside the shop an exasperated but still polite voice echoed. "For the last time, Enmu, that toy train is for display only."

"I'll buy it someday!" Enmu declared cheerfully as if this were a regular occurrence and simply brushed himself off and headed to the direction of the nearest station.

You shrug and quit your side eyeing, venturing inside. The red haired shopkeeper looked up from the counter, his formerly poker face transforming into a bright smile that matched the red sun of his hanafuda earrings. "Hi, are you looking for anything? Tourist?"

Sheepishly you replied and casually asked Yoriichi, as he had introduced himself, for any recommendations on where to eat for lunch.

"Oh, you should try the diner down the road! It's family run - Mrs. Iguro is very sweet and they're very famous for their sakura mochi! My wife Uta and I frequent there, so just tell them I sent you."

That sounded good to you, so you thanked him along with your exchange of tokens, then asked for directions.

"It's right on front of where my brother works, Kibutsuji Enterprises. It's a huge office, you can't possibly miss it."

"Kibutsuji Enterprises...? I think I've heard of them, run by Kagaya Ubuyashiki right?"

"Oh, no, don't get confused, they're rival companies actually. The Ubuyashiki company has a wisteria as its logo."

A little confusing, but alright! You thanked him profusely once again and left, making your way through the busy streets to the diner.

You thanked your lucky stars you got there on one piece, for there was a motorbike zooming and booming through the crowds without a care for law or life just now as you were walking. Thankfully you had jumped back just in time before they could mow you down. From what you could see in the racing blur there appeared to be a green-haired young boy dressed in a crimson shirt with a manic smile on his face and a screaming white-haired girl clutching onto him for dear life driving. You hoped the two scarred faced policemen would catch them - no doubt, actually, seeing as they were both already brandishing guns and chasing after the two with furious speed .

"SHABANA, YOU'RE ABOUT TO GET FINED AGAIN!"

"I DON'T GIVE TWO FXXKS, SHINAZUGAWA!"

"Yeah, that's right, Onii-chan!"

You pass a school bus dropping off a bunch of tiny preschoolers, herded and fretted over by their hulking giant of a teacher. His wooden bead necklace matched yours, clacking together as he urged the kids to stay together. How cute... although such a big man being so kindly was a little unnerving.

"Oh? Want to try our signature Eternal Paradise perfume? We guarantee you'll have anyone falling for you with it!'

You ignore the blonde salesman leaning outside his store. He peered over his rainbow tinted sunglasses to catch you rolling your eyes and with a fake gasp of hurt he grabbed his chest. You snort and continue walking.

Mrs. Iguro was just as welcoming as Yoriichi had promised, although you were rather caught off guard by her bright pink and green hair and the fact she was carrying a whole stack of plates and balancing a baby at the same time.

"Hi!!! Welcome, do take a seat, what can I get you? Obanai's special for today is Western food - oh wait, silly me, you're not from around here, are you? I expect you'd want something local! Coming right up!"

You can't help but be buoyed by her bubbly nature, waiting patiently with a contented grin. You look around the diner and while the snake ornament at the counter catches your eye you find yourself studying the other customers instead.

A pair of identical twin boys eat quietly, with a younger boy with rosy cheeks noisily chatting with them; evidently a playdate of some sort.

"Don't forget, Kotetsu, you're paying because you lost the last shoji match."

"Aw, Tokito, you're such a seaweed head. I'm just a beginner!"

"Brother's a seaweed head, not me."

"HEY! WE LOOK THE SAME!"

You chuckle and your gaze strays to the other table, where a family of three ate their ramen. Their son seemed a little paler than normal and you couldn't help but overhear the mother's worrying.

"Darling Rui, don't eat so fast, you might choke and you just recovered!"

Embarrassed at your eavesdropping you duck your head and look at the other table where a group of rowdy students sit and snack.

"YOSHITERU AGATSUMA, HOW DARE YOU BURP LIKE THAT IN PUBLIC!"

"It was an accident, Toko! I can't control it!" Was the whining answer. "KANATA, DEFEND ME! OW! YOU'RE NOT A REAL FRIEND, KAMADO!"

"UMAI!"

Mrs. Iguro - or Mitsuri, as she had insisted you call her - arrived with towering plates and hell lot of topics to converse about. You happily indulged in their famous udon and her delighted talking while her husband glared at you from the window, although the threat was rather marred by the fact he was feeding a toddler at the same time.

You learnt Mitsuri - so cool! Her name was the exact one as the Love Pillar from the series! - had five kids (your head was still spinning over the fact) and that her hair had turned out that way from eating too much sakura mochi, which made you wonder what was happening to you after eating so much (favourite food) over the years.

After your meal you repeatedly thank Mitsuri for her meal and longingly promise to stop by again you leave for the last place on your agenda, Gyokko Art Studio.

The exhibitions mainly displayed brightly painted vases and scupltures; you had a lot of fun taking selfies with the gigantic koi fish statue and the one of a dozen blacksmiths forging swords. The studio also doubled as a pottery school, and when you enter you had immediately spotted the five rowdy teenage boys who were now arguing over a kiln and a broken vase at the back.

"KARAKU, YOU BROKE IT!"

"Hey, Sekido, chill! Zohakuten pushed me!"

"SHUT IT, WHY ARE YOU ALWAYS BLAMING ME? IS IT BECAUSE I'M THE YOUNGEST? AGEIST!

"Guys...quiet down....granddad is sleeping upstairs...."

"Nah, Aizetsu, I wanna see what happens!"

"Enough! All of you just clean that mess up! We have visitors! Your grandfather and I may be friends but I will never know what went wrong when he was raising all of you!"

Out of the back appeared the most flashy man you had ever met, eye catching with his coiffed purple hair and thick makeup, his scale tattoos catching your eye as he shooed the arguing brothers away. Eyes outlined with clashing green and red turned to you and he held out a stained hand. "Managi at your service! I run this humble store and I deeply apologize for the boys. Honestly, the Hantengu brothers are absolute menaces and I speak knowing the Shabana siblings."

Managi gave you a quick private tour of his studio, his arrogant but dramatic way of speech amusing you greatly, especially when he complained about a pair of twins who came in on the weekends, his two workers, children...well, Managi had an opinion on everything.

"Those Tokito whippersnappers have no appreciation for art! The only reason I haven't shooed them out with clay gluing their ill-mannered mouths shut is because their mother is a regular of mine."

"Haganezuka! Absolute concentration in what he does and a prodigy in vase making, but he is absolutely terrible with customer service! I usually leave that to Kanamori but we waste more time preventing Haganezuka from attacking customers than actually selling.

It was definitely a trip you'd like to remember, so you bought a small cup that had caught your eye and waved goodbye to Managi as you left for your final destination, your hotel.

You decide to take the longer way round to enjoy the picturesque walk beneath the sakura trees. Stopping to admire the pink fall you suddenly realize there's a couple beside you taking photos. Embarrassed that you might be unintentionally photo bombing, you move away, but a tap on your shoulder spins you back around.

"Hi, excuse me! Do you mind taking a picture of Hakuji and I? We tried taking a selfie but haha, the shot didn't cover the trees."

You oblige, secretly delighting in observing the young but loving couple interact with each other - especially when the punk-looking, tattoo-covered Hakuji was holding her so gently like that. You take their photo and after their grateful thanks you resumed making your way back.

Upon arriving at the lobby you were annoyed to say the least to find yourself stuck behind an irritatingly loud young man arguing with the poor receptionist. Of course, you couldn't actually see the receptionist's - Nakime, on her name tag, and that sounded rather familiar - face due to her long bangs but anyone would honestly be irritated with how obnoxiously he was talking.

"Sir, I have explained to you already, your booking was cancelled because you were late with your payment-"

"Oh come on, woman, it was just a day late!"

"You too are very late with your excuses."

The tall, tuxedoed man from the sofa had gotten up and was now towering over the younger man after politely excusing himself for getting in your way. "Miss, look for a room registered under Kokushibo. I suspected my fool of a secretary Kaigaku would make yet another mistake."

"HEY, LISTEN HERE, OLD MAN-"

"Kaigaku, I really don't have time for this, my wife is going to be back soon from taking the kids to the zoo. Thank you, miss, and excuse us."

"That guy was irritating you, wasn't he?" You remarked, accidentally blurting out your thoughts. "I mean, I wasn't eavesdropping!"

The receptionist smiled faintly. "Don't worry, I'm used to him. Your name?"

And it was only when you flopped down on your hotel bed and stared at the ceiling did it occur to you that a lot of people had seemed very familiar to you today.

Perhaps fiction and reality weren't that far apart after all.
