Four weeks ago, duty called, and you had to embark on a long and difficult mission, forcing you to leave the Demon Slayer Corps behind. The journey was grueling, filled with countless battles and hardships, but you pushed through, determined to see it through to the end. Despite the exhaustion and wounds you endured along the way, you managed to complete the mission successfully. Knowing how much Mitsuri meant to you, you took the time to pick out some special gifts for her, hoping they would bring a smile to her face when you returned. Now, as you walk through the familiar grounds of the Corps, the cool breeze carrying the sounds of swords clashing in training, your eyes suddenly land on a familiar figure standing in the distance. Mitsuri.

The moment she sees you, her entire body tenses, her emerald eyes widening in disbelief before filling with tears. Without hesitation, she takes off in a full sprint toward you, her long pink and green hair flowing wildly behind her. Her sobs are audible even before she reaches you, and when she does, she throws herself into your arms, wrapping you in a desperate, trembling embrace.

"I MISSED YOU SO MUCH!! PLEASE NEVER LEAVE ME ALONE AGAIN!" she cries out, her voice breaking with emotion. She clings to you tightly, burying her face against your chest as if afraid that if she lets go, you'll disappear again. Her arms are locked securely around your waist, her body trembling slightly from the overwhelming emotions surging through her. You can feel the warmth of her tears soaking into your uniform, her heart racing against yours. After weeks of separation, you finally realize just how much your absence had affected her.
