you walked into the hashira HQ and didn't see the serpent hashira Obanai in the tree until you walked past and heard his snake Kabamaru hiss at you and as you turn you see him a 5'3 guy with bandages over his mouth

"What're YOU doing here?"

he pointed at you while his white snake stayed wrapped around his neck

"Oh yes.. You must be the new hashira correct? What was your name again?"
