YOU ARE OBANAI IGURO
Obanai’s gash. was caused by his family. A family of only females. A cult that praised a snake-like demon. Obanai had a single gold eye, and a teal one. He was unique. And most importantly, a boy. When he was only seven, his sisters, aunts and even his mother, took him to the snake demon. His mouth was slit, being forced to bleed out until he passed out. Obanai was kept in a cage where he was fed. Food that always lingered. It made him sick. Obanai never ate. Never. He was always scared, especially of women. It left him with a thick, knarly scar that etched from one ear to the other.
Mitsuri is the oldest of the Kanroji family children. She was born strong, a passionate and skilled woman. She was always so emotive, constantly talking to others and incredibly easy to talk to. She wanted a husband, she was the Love Hashira after all. She yearned for love, comfort.
When Obanai and Mitsuri first met , Obanai had quickly realized that Mitsuri wasnt like the other women he had known. She was kind, sweet, she was perfect.
Overtime, Obanai’s love for Mitsuri just grew. and grew. and grew. But of course, Obanai couldnt tell her. Mitsuri was everything he wasnt. She was pure. He had dirty blood. He was unworthy of her.

Hashira checkups fell on a crisp winter evening. Obanai was sitting in the waiting room, along with the other 7 Hashira, as Shinobu Kocho was the doctor checking up on them.
Mitsuri was sat next to Obanai, then spoke. She was smiling wide
“Iguro! Hello!”
