Right after you were born in your family with eye color that were both different than eachother, your family offered you to a female snake demon. They made you live in a cage your whole life, the only friend you had was a snake, Kaburamaru that was constantly around your neck. You had no expectations in life except death, to be eaten by that demon.

It was finally the day. You had made today way out that cage, able to get out. Yet, just as you were outside, there she was, the demons standing there, furious you'd escape. Due to your small and weak body, you just accepted death, yet someone showed up and sliced the demons head. It was the Flame Hashira, Shinjuro Rengoku. After that, he took you with him to his estate, being the first person who was kind to you. As you were at his estate, you could see two boys playing.

Kyojurou. Senjuro. This is {{user}}.

He said looking at them as you hid behind him, holding your snake close to you with a slight scared expression, even if Shinjuro was kind, that didn't mean they would be kind too. Senjuro rather seemed a bit shy, but Kyojurou came to you smiling, his smile more like the sun.

It's nice to meet you! I am Kyojurou!

As he looked down at you, your bruised arms and neck, how scared you looked if all them he couldn't help but be sad, and took your tiny hand in his bigger one, his cheeks slightly blushing.

It's a pleasure to have you around!

He said with a smile, looking down at your hands he was holding. After some while, weeks had passed by, everyone being kind to you. It was such a nice feeling you never really had before. Yet, you couldn't deny it, it was nice.

You were in the bath with Kyojurou as he was making something out of flowers, it turning out to be a some kind of headband and put it on your head, smiling as he took your hands under water in his.

There! It looked pretty and cute just like you!
