Sanemi doesn't see color.
He lost the colors of this world when he first had to take up arms, and he never saw this world again.
Everything seemed as if it was an eternal cold winter. Everything was gray, faded, and dead, no matter where he looked.
He looked at the sky, but he no longer saw its azure purity.
He caught cherry blossom petals in his palms and looked at them for a long time, tracing the outline and delicacy of the veins of the flower with his pads, but he did not see what the cherry blossoms were like this year.
He sat on a tree branch, looking at the setting sun over the mountains and forest cover, but all he saw in the sky was a scribble of gray shades.
He often thought that he would gradually forget the colors.
If only, if only... if only they did not dream of him.
Rarely, fleetingly, but he clung to that moment every time in his dreams, keeping it in his memory...
He had never seen what color Tomioka's eyes were.
Of course, he hadn't seen any of the colors of the other Pillars. Not their hair, not their clothes, not their eyes. He knew that Gyomei was blind. He knew that Obanai had two different eye colors, and that the right one was almost blind. He knew that Kyoujuro's eyes always shone. He knew that Muichiro's eyes often stopped at something without thinking, empty.
So why did Giyuu's dark, dull even eyes catch his attention?
"Tomioka..." the question hangs in the air as Shinazugawa stares at the Water Pillar, narrowing his eyes slightly, making a soft tsking sound as the Water Pillar tilts his head to the side in a silent question.
"What... color are your eyes?..."
god the way muichiro smiles at tanjiro makes me want to cry
You got it 😉
I want to watch this scene so BAD 😭❤️🩹
Demon Slayer AU where everything is the same except Yoriichi is a ghost.
He’s corporal/people can see him, he can change his appearance from when he was a kid to when he was old.
He follows Tanjiro around. They met sometime before the Hashira Training Arc for sure, but how early depends on what the writer decides. Has he been there since pre-canon? Or did he show up after the Entertainment District Arc (would honestly make most sense since Tanjiro didn’t know about Sun Breathing until after Mugen Train, but again this is an AU).
He meets Muichiro, and after it clicks that he’s Michikatsu’s descendant Yoriichi follows him around too, eager to be close with the family he could never have.
Depending on when they met, Yoriichi could help Muichiro recover is missing memories earlier than in canon.
Other things about/to include in the AU:
Kamaboko Squad centric (Tanjiro, Nezuko, Inosuke, Zenitsu, Kanao, Genya, AND Aoi and Senjuro)
each member gets a one-on-one interaction with him at some point, which will add to their own personal character growth
Whether or not Yoriichi can physically interact with others is up to the writer
making him able to fight demons seems kinda OP, so unless the writer can find a way to make it make sense about how he can maybe don’t do that
maybe he can exude enough strength to stun demons, but not fully kill them
can he pick things up, or do they just pass through him?
He helps train Tanjiro, making him more proficient in Sun Breathing
this can give Tanjiro more time to hone is Water Breathing. It always irked me that Tanjiro didn’t practice Water Breathing as much when he discovered Sun Breathing (don’t quote me on that, I get my info from TikToks and reaction videos. But why learn two breathing styles and not increase your skill in both?)
this can allow a Giyuu training session in the Hashira Training Arc that we didn’t get to see
Expanding on Yoriichi changing his age: I feel like the older he presents himself, the more power he would have. So when he’s fighting, he’s somewhere between his 20s and 80s. However, because this takes up a lot of energy, when he’s not fighting he’s typically in the form of himself as a child or in his teens
whether or not his mentality/maturity is affected when he’s at different ages is up to the writer so long as it’s not portrayed in an erotic/kinky way
Yoriichi can give tips to the Hashiras that those in the Sengoku Era used (information always has the potential to be forgotten, so maybe there were some tricks that were forgotten about?)
can provide more information about Muzan and his weaknesses, since he was the only swordsman who came close to killing the Demon King
Interactions with Lady Tamayo and Yushiro!
Fluffy moments! Slice of Life, Found Family, all the tropes! Let him be the father to the Kamaboko Squad that they never had/lost (let him have the chance to be the father he never got to be)
Lots of interactions with Genya (is my favoritism showing?)
bonding over being the younger brother
bonding over their endless love for their older brothers
bonding over their older brothers who do so much to hurt them, but they just can’t stop admiring them
Let Yoriichi give Sanemi a talking to
yes, I understand why Sanemi acted towards Genya the way he did. He wanted to protect him, keep him out of danger. However. Good intentions DO NOT give you a free pass on bad actions.
the way that Sanemi treated Genya was cruel and frankly unacceptable; he could’ve gone about it in a much more mature manner
Interactions with Giyuu and Yoriichi!!
mostly bc Giyuu is my fav Hashira, but I notice a lot of similarities between them
Maybe Yoriichi can provide information about Kokushibo/Uppermoon 1?
Yoriichi has the flute that Michikatsu gave him with him in his ghost form
Additional weaknesses up to the writer (this goes for powers too)
Kamaboko Squad showing Yoriichi present-day things
A mix of fluff, angst, etc.
rating is up to the author
ANY SHIP is welcome so long as it is:
legal
not a pro-ship
treated respectfully/with some level of understanding
^^continuing from this, it doesn’t matter if you include SaneKane, SaneGiyuu, ShinoGiyuu, ShinoMitsu, SaneMitsu, ObaGiyuu, UzuRen, or any other pairing, polyamorous included. It doesn’t matter if there’s no ships at all. Everyone has there own preferences, and it’s up to both the reader and the writer to be respectful about it
This is all I’ve come up with for now! I’ll most likely come back and add more at some point, but if you have any ideas or suggestions let me know too!
If you end up using this idea, credit me with my Tumblr, and if you want to as well my AO3 which can be found in my profile :)
*After an argument amongst the Pillars caused by Giyu*
Kagaya: To settle this dispute, Giyu, why don’t you tell the others one thing you like about them?
Giyu: Uh, okay. Kocho, I like the purple in your hair.
Shinobu: Thanks!
Giyu: Kanroji, I like the green in your hair.
Mitsuri: Aw, thank you! I love your hair as well!
Giyu: Tokito, I like the blue in your hair.
Muichiro: Thanks, I guess.
Giyu: Rengoku, I like the red in your hair.
Kyojuro: A little repetitive, but thank you, nonetheless!
Giyu: Iguro, I like... uh... I like the um... The, uh, colour of, um...
Obanai: No, go ahead. Which colour of my hair do you like? Black or black?
Giyu: ... Uh... I like the yellow of your right eye.
Obanai: Whatever.
Giyu: Uzui, I like the red dots near your eye.
Tengen: Naturally! But your compliments are in desperate need of flair and uniqueness. You just keep going off about colours of things and eyes.
Giyu, completely ignoring Tengen: Shinazugawa, I like... the colour of the scar near your eye?
Sanemi: That doesn’t even make sense AND you said it like a question! How the fuck is that a compliment!?
Giyu: It just is.
Sanemi: No, it fucking isn’t!
Giyu, ignoring Sanemi and remembering that Gyomei is blind so colour and eyes mean nothing to him: And Himejima, I like your generous personality and your compassionate manner. You really hold this team together.
Gyomei: Why, thank you for saying something so personal and kind.
Giyu: No problem, man.
The rest of the Pillars: Bitch, the fuck-

Did y'all see the Last episode of Hashira Training Arc? BECAUSE DAMN THEY KILLED ME AND REVIVED ME WITH THE ANIMATIONS AND THE BACKGROUND MUSIC AND EVERYTHING–
Zenitsu has the CharacterDevelopment™ vibes he's going to slay in the next arc OMFG I can't breathe–
Inosuke and Muichiro look absolutely majestic (so do the others haha but can you tell that I'm picking favourites?)
I saw this one video on Insta the other day with Muzan's entry having the 'ami je tomar' bg music and it fits so well I wish he gets the Monjulika treatment
I'm sorry (not really) to all my favourite characters who have been put through the ringer either in their actual media or just because of my deranged little mind, your sacrifice is greatly appreciated.
o(≧∀≦)o THIS IS SO PRETTY!!! Love the rendering on everything!! :DD The flowers and ginkgo leaves look super pretty ⸜( ᵔ ᗜ ᵔ )⸝ also the hair is so so cool too :))
