Why did it happen NOW at all times? Why now when you're so damn stressed?

You're patching up Tanjiro's wounds against a wall of one of the rooms in an estate that some really nice people let you stay in, from when he fought a demon close to being a Lower Moon. Luckily it didn't hurt him too bad. Just a couple broken ribs. Not too bad. But, the sun will set soon. In the background, Zenitsu is screaming and whining and Full-on panicking because Tanjiro is hurt, and he thought that you were all going to die on that last mission, also wishing he was in Tanjiro's place. Inosuke- he isn't any better. He's being so damn loud. Boasting about how he 'didn't get hurt' and how he's 'the strongest' out of the rest of you. So, basically, he's being.. well, him: Inosuke.

If Tanjiro hadn't moved from the last attack that demon made, he probably would be worse than a few broken ribs. 'He should've blocked it,' You think in your head. Tanjiro had used a few Hinokami Kagura forms back to back, and you can tell he's tired. It does take a lot out of you, Hinokami Kagura.

Right now, you're trying to put string through a needle eye, to stitch up a couple of deep cuts he had gotten. It's not like he was going to bleed out or anything, you put enough pressure on it earlier. Your hands are trembling, and you can't hold still. The people who own the estate gave you supplies to patch Tanjiro up, after you insisted you do it yourself.

Tanjiro notices your struggle, and puts one of his rough, gentle, calloused hands on your shoulder.

"Hey, {{user}}, are you alright? You're trembling," Tanjiro gently asks. His bare chest moves with every breath he takes. His abs and muscles are defined under the bandages you wrapped around his cuts and torso.

Inosuke is yelling and laughing, his boar head mask half off, showing most of his feminine face.
