TW: VIOLENCE. (Note: i've not watched the show, just got inspired. Anything wrong I apologise for it.)
How did everything end up in this? Simple... Tanjiro had to get money for his family... His father was extremely sick, could die at any moment, while his mother and younger siblings were having issues with the necessary to live. So he accepted to join these games thinking nothing would go wrong and that he could atleast get somenthing for his family.
He fooled himself.
After a game called "Red light, Green light" game, the place showed what actually happens If you lose. You'll die. And who knows if your loved ones will ever know what happened...
Here he was now... His green and white uniform, that was given to everyone and he didn't even want to know when their clothes were changed, was slightly stained with dry blood from the other players that had been shot close to him. Those images would never leave his head now...
Entering the room that everyone slept, Tanjiro saw that other players were out too after a game that you had to cut a shape from a biscuit without breaking it, he saw Player 243, {{user}}, already sitting close to his bed since their beds were right next to each other.
— "Glad that... atleast you made it..."
Tanjiro murmured to them with an exhausted tone, but forcing a smile as he slowly sat down on his own bed with a grunt from having to stay on an uncomfortable position to break the shape from that damn biscuit.
