I'm not even joking I had sleep paralysis last night and IT WAS THE EXACT COPY OF KOKUSHIBO

{third POV}

"Why's everyone yelling?" Genya whom had just entered the room questioned, seeing Zenitsu holding a furious Inosuke to the floor while Shinobu stood laughing mockingly at him. On the other hand, Rengoku was trying to figure out the situation whilst Tanjiro and Nezuko were peacefully watching the ordeal from a safe distance.

It was absolute chaos.

"Genya!" Tanjiro beamed, bouncing off the bed and wrapping his arms around the male's waist; nuzzling his face into his chest.

Genya froze from the harsh glare he got from absolutely everyone in the room. Even Shinobu looked a little annoyed by Tanjiro's fondness over Genya.

"Since when did you too get so close?!" Inosuke yelled from on the floor, still trying to get Zenitsu off him. Tanjiro who was now a little unsettled by the atmosphere moved to hide behind Genya's tall figure.

"Since our last mission, anyways what's going on?" Genya grumbled slightly victoriously, patting Tanjiro on the head whom was still hiding behind him while smirking at the angry glares.

"Ah you see, the wild bore here doesn't like Tanjiro's new accessory" Shinobu admitted, taking pride in seeing Tanjiro flush a bright red.

"New accessory?" Rengoku finally spoke up, raising a brow towards the insect pillar.

A smile spread across her cheeks as she turned to the slightly flustered boy "you wanna show them Tanjiro?" She asked sweetly, her voice holding a hidden malice.

Tanjiro shook his head in denial, recoiling further behind Genya's back.

Before anyone could say anything else, Obanai and Muichiro came silently running down the hallway; taking advantage of how Tanjiro was standing in the doorway and grabbing his wrist suddenly.

The two proceeded to drag him away from the scene and push him into Obanai's room rather swiftly, ignoring the shouts of protest coming from the others.

"M-Muichiro?! Obanai?" Tanjiro squeaked, rather surprised at the action to say the least as the door slammed behind him.

"S-sorry Tanjiro... you looked a little uncomfortable so we thought we might help you" Muchiro mumbled, holding the door shut as Obanai fell onto his bed while panting.

"It's so rainy" the serpent pillar spoke dejectedly, looking out the window to observe the storm at hand.

"Actually your probably right... it's best to let things cool down before I go back" Tanjiro chuckled awkwardly, sending a thankful smile towards Muichiro.

"So what is was going on anyways" Obanai asked, turning his head to look at Tanjiro seated on the floor with his legs crossed under him.

"Oh uhh..." Tanjiro wasn't sure how to frame his question so he hesitantly pulled his uniform down to reveal the collar, going slightly red in the face from their surprised expressions.

"I always thought she was into some weird stuff..." Muichiro mumbled to himself, his statement going unheard by the two in the room.

Tanjiro bit his lip in thought, sharp canines drawing a little blood as it streaked down his chin.

Muchiro shuffled closer to the boy and used his thumb to wipe away the blood, licking it afterwards "sweet..."

Tanjiro's eyes widened as he jumped back in surprise "Dont be a creep Mui" Obanai grumbled, staring at the two from his bed "come sit Tanjiro" the pillar commanded, patting a space next to him.

The boy hesitantly took the seat next to the pillar, soon followed by Muichiro sitting on the other side "let me see the collar" Obanai instructed, to which Tanjiro bent down and turned his head to the side to it was easier to see.

Just then, Obanai's snake coiled it's tail around Tanjiro's neck and tried to use the end of its tail to pick at the small lock, however it was to no avail as it stayed firmly in place.

"Tch how annoying" he mumbled as the snake slithered away from Tanjiro in defeat.

"If she doesn't take it off by Tomorrow I'll just steal the key" the pillar grumped as a last resort, flipping himself back on the bed from fatigue. He had just come back from a mission with Muichiro and they were both still tired from fighting in the horrendous wether.

Muichiro smiled softly and grabbed Tanjiro's arm while pulling him in between the two pillar's wrapping his arms around Tanjiro's waist while Obanai snuggled into the crook of his neck.

Tanjiro couldn't really move being sandwiched between the pillars.

Not like he particularly wanted to either...

Letting himself cool off for a second, Tanjiro eventually calmed down and snuggled into their warmth; his mind put at ease from the drumming of rain that bartered the windows, creating a calming melodic hum echoing throughout the warm room as they drifted off to sleep together.

If I can't take him by force...

I'll have to make him come to me by will...

That's it!

The perfect plan...

————————————————

Kokushibō's many eyes watched as Nezuko excused herself from the room of rambling Hashira's talking about nonsense, making her smile at back to her dark little room to rest once more.

The upper moon crept around the mansion while being soaked by the rain, his noticeable smell being thankfully masked by the storm.

Nezuko eventually made it into her room and collapsed onto her comfortable bed where she spent most of her time, letting sleep take over in a matter of seconds.

Kokushibō let a significant amount of time pass to make sure she was asleep till he could execute the plan made by Muzan.

Taking one last glance to make sure no hashira were present, the upper moon smashed the black out window right atop Nezuko's bed and instantly clasped his hand over her muzzle, gripping her by the shoulders while hoisting her struggling body through the small window.

Calling for Nakime to open an entrance to the infinity Castle, he disappeared into the night; leaving a shattered window and empty bed.

"Did you succeed?"

"Of course master"

I stepped on a exposed nail... it went straight through my food and I had to go to hospital

That shit was probably the most PAINFUL thing I've ever felt
