(So tempted to create a little minion for Jettโs main verse. Need the mischievous assistant vibes in my his life rn. An Igor, if you will. No, no, not your traditional Igor, more like Igor(pronounced Eye-gor) from Young Frankenstein. Sarcastic, goofy, quicker with tongue than mind, but still loyal. Might be a skeleton, or a zombie, or a kobold, or a Fae of some kind. Might also try to shoehorn this character into the modern verse for maximum comedy but I donโt know yet. I will think more on this while Iโm with family today.)

Closer, Please-Sanemi x M!Reader
hello :3 (nobody talk about the fact i havenโt been active for months ๐)
Summary: A oneshot in which reader gets injured on a mission and Sanemi is almost too scared to let the Kakushi take care of him.
WC~ 1k
Warnings: violence/injuries (sorta graphic), sanemi is really soft and a little ooc, sanemi is also anxious :((
The gasp that Sanemi lets out is one that's never been heard by anyone but you. Though, you barely hear it over the sound of ringing and the startling sight of blood, splashing up against your face. As if controlled by a motor, on autopilot, Sanemi is able to quickly make work of the demons surrounding the two of you, rushing to your side faster than the wind his sword stirs up. You gasp too, not entirely sure what happened until the sharp pain in your stomach can remind you of the reality. Your clothes are torn, and so is the skin across your stomach, gushing red liquid onto you and your partner's hands. You fall back, Sanemi barely catching you before you can hit the ground.
"Hey, hey, don'tโ you'll hurt yourself tripping like that!"
You don't point out the fact that you're already injured; With the bloodโyour blood staining his once white haori, you're sure he's already aware. He doesn't tell you he's nervous, he doesn't have to. You're almost sure he's aware of that, too. Your head is pressed to his chest, and you're painfully aware of the speed of his heartbeat. He'd never admit it, of course, but this is the most terrified he's ever been in his life. Every Hashira has had a loved one or a partner get injured. Obanai and Mitsuri worked missions together, often worrying over each other's health, Tengen's wives were all kunoichi, Shinobu lost her sister, Rengoku's partner was clumsy, often cutting themself accidentally during training and earning a worried scolding, it happened a lot. Just... not usually like this. Never like this.
This was going to earn you much more than a worried scolding.
This ended in his arms around your shoulders, gripping so tight his fingers were sure to leave marks, ended in long waves of pain shooting through your body and your heart as Sanemi's voice gets shakier by the minute. It ends with Sanemi getting desperate, watching for his crow, for the Kakushi, for anyone; He's lost far too much already for this to end in your death.
When the Kakushi do get there, he's conflicted. They reach for you, but his arms stay a vice around your body. You're losing blood, the ensemble has to get you help. It's their job to get you somewhere safe, Sanemi knows that better than anyone, but he can't bring himself to do anything, to tell them anything other than,
"Touch him, and I'll fucking skin you."
He wants you to get help more than anything, but his pride, the constant bass drum in his chest tells him it needs to be his own. Sanemi's help. Sanemi has to fix this. He can't let that go, can't let you go. It takes screaming, kicking, shoving, and more members of the Kakushi than they thought to pry you out of Sanemi's grip. Though, when they do, he stays on his knees, haori falling into his lap, hands shaking. For the first time in years, he feels tears brim in his eyes, because they took you away. Because there's nothing he could've done.
"Nothing he could've done," Is all Shinazugawa Sanemi can tell himself, pacing grooves into the lawn of the Butterfly Mansion. He thinks there's too many liquids on his face. Sweat from the fight, water that tried to wash it all off, tears, and the silvery streaks they leave behind, and your blood. The worst one by far. It kills him that he doesn't know if you're okay, doesn't know how much Shinobu can do for you. He can't remember what your body looked like getting slashed at by that demonโhe's tried too hard to block it outโwhich means he doesn't know anything. Not until Shinobu herself is standing in front of him; He didn't hear the doors open.
"San-"
"Is he okay??" Shinobu's eye twitches a littleโshe hates when people ask that.
"Why don't you go see for yourself?" She asks, through gritted teeth and that smile, the one that seemed permanently ingrained on her features. Sanemi nods, tapping his fingers together. He never fidgeted like that. Or at all. Clearly he was nervous, or picking up on your habits, but God, he hoped it wasn't that. He has to keep himself from throwing the doors open, immediately looking for you. There were other people in the infirmary, some he knew, some he didn't; It never seemed to be empty. But in that moment, all he cared about was finding you. Though, you spot him first. A relieved giggle tells him this, along with a voice he'd know anywhere.
"Sanemi!" He runs to you, tearing up as he realizes for the first time, how badly he took the feeling of your arms around him for granted. He fights the urge to slap you across the face, to scream at you, to beg you to tell him why you'd do this to him, but he can'tโyou're crying too.
"Oh... oh, lovely," He crumbles, kneeling at the side of your bed and clutching you to his chest like a diary he didn't want anyone to see. He sniffles, letting tears he prays you can't feel fall into your hair. "Goddammit baby, you can't just go and do that to me." His voice cracks at the end, so you know he's crying anyway; He internally thanks you for not saying anything.
"Sorry, I'm sorry, I just-" You sniffle into his shoulder, and it breaks his heart. "I wish I could've done more, I'm sor-"
"Don't you dare fuckin' apologize again. It's okay," You're okay. That's all that matters. That's all that's mattered to him since he met you. All he's wanted since then was for you to be okay, and right now, you are. There isn't much more he could ask for. You take the risk though, biting the bait and asking him for just one more thing, as he holds you.
"Sanemi? Closer, please?"

Which Type of Love Interest Would You Be in a Dating Game?
The sweetheart with an enigmatic dark past
You're always polite and kind with others. That makes people feel comfortable around you and many would consider you a close friend. However, you seldom feel connected with those around you. You feel like they don't know you, the real you, and they never will because you'll never allow them. It takes a great amount of time and trust for you to show yourself as you truly are, because you repress most of your feelings and desires, and mask them with a calm and collected personalty. It just seems easier that way, safer. But remember that if you bottle everything up, it will explode one day, maybe in ways you aren't proud of.

(Response to this post because I donโt want to add a novel of headcanons to someone elseโs notes ๐ฌ)
I think Durge!Jett would be ecstatic at first to find out that he has a little sister! Bhaal Spawn or not, heโs a caretaker by nature (yes I know that this is not true for all Durges, but mine is), so heโd take his newfound responsibility as big brother quite seriously. Sometimes that involves sparring with Orin or keeping her from doing stupid shit. Other times, it involves him bringing her dead animals or body parts as a peace offering after theyโve had a fight, or comforting her after sheโs had a nightmare, or telling her stories and dazzling her with special effects via prestidigitation. He wants to love her, but he doesnโt quite know how, or if heโs doing it right. The Dark Urge makes it really hard. He still tries his best, knowing all along that heโs probably falling flat.
He doesnโt learn how to properly love another until after heโs tadpoled.
He learns from his new party members companions friends.
He learns from the Dark Urge when it drives him to murder them because he does love them. He doesnโt give in.
And when he finally regains his memories, he realizes that he loved Orin as much as he could, and it still wasnโt enough.
