A pup and his family
During one of his missions, Tanjirou finds a little boy (definitely no more than two years old) who just lost his parents to a demon.
The scene is so heartbreaking and the story so familiar that Tanjirou's inner omega instantly feels a connection with the little one. The kid likes him, he immediately jumps into the security of Tanjirou's arms and doesn't let go of him after that.
Now, Tanjirou knows there's probably someone better suited to take care of the child; the omega doesn't even have a mate so he can't welcome the kid into a stable family, but his inner omega has decided that the kid is his pup now and that's the end of it.
He comes back to the butterfly estate and takes his pup to the girls to make sure he's completely fine. Tanjirou needs to be at his side at all times because the boy seems to get nervous around anyone who's not the omega.
Tanjirou learns that his name is Kiyoshi after the little kid grows comfortable enough to start speaking. It takes a while for him to trust Nezuko, but it helps that she smells a lot like Tanjirou.
When the little one starts calling him Mommy Tanjirou can't stop himself from tearing up a bit before nuzzling happily against the kid's cheek.
He's always wanted to have pups, but since he's not mated and no one seems to be interested in him, Tanjirou decided to push that thought away for the time being.
Sometimes he needs to leave his Kiyoshi in the butterfly estate, however, everyone has grown so fond of him Tanjirou knows he's safe there.
The Pillars are particularly nice to his pup, they bring him toys and play with him every time they see him. Tanjirou has found himself watching them interact with his pup with a fond expression on his face.
"Listen, I'm not trying to say they don't love Kiyoshi, we all do, but the hashira are really trying to impress you," Aoi blurts out one day, like she can't keep it inside anymore.
"What do you mean?"
"You must be kidding me, Tanjirou!"
The omega doesn't understand and it confuses him even more when he realizes she's quite irritated. However, he gets distracted because Kiyoshi happily runs towards him, giggling before hiding behind his legs because the Pillars are playing hide and seek with him.
"Mommy, don't say!"
"I won't tell them anything, little one," Tanjirou smiles before putting a finger against his lips.
It's obvious there's a very happy, very excited little kid giggling behind him, but Kanroji pretends to be disappointed when she doesn't find him.
"Mommy, he's the villain!"
For some reason, Shinazugawa always plays the villains and the monsters in their little games. He growls, although it's the softest growl Tanjirou has ever heard coming from the alpha.
He smiles at the wind hashira, trying to let him know how grateful he is the alpha is playing with his pup and he notices that Shinazugawa blushes and gets a little bit flustered for a moment before pretending to be defeated by Himejima.
"Let's go! Take Mommy too!"
Before Tanjirou can say anything, Rengoku takes him in his arms and Tomioka carries a very excited Kiyoshi to the safety of their "castle".
They all end up inside, taking a break while they have lunch before the pup falls asleep on Tanjirou's lap.
"You have done such a good job taking care of the pup, Tanjirou," Kocho comments looking a little bit nervous suddenly. The omega has never seen her like that. "So I don't mean to imply you're not, but have you ever considered choosing a mate to help you raise him?"
The other Pillars stop what they're doing in order to give him their undivided attention; it's like whatever Tanjirou is going to say is very important to them.
"Of course, I want him to have a Dad or perhaps a Mom," he grins for a moment before turning bright red and rubbing the back of his neck: "Besides... I want to have a big family..."
"I can be your alpha," Uzui immediately offers as Tokito tries to throw a rock at him before volunteering himself to be Tanjirou's alpha as well.
Everyone else does the same; they're pushing others and baring his teeth at each other, trying to tell him why each of them would be the best choice for him.
"You're really kind," Tanjirou says, smiling fondly at them. "I know you have grown fond of my Kiyoshi, but you don't have to make the sacrifice of mating me in order to keep taking care of my pup. You're already like family to him..."
"Sacrifice?" Iguro huffs, outraged. "Who told you such a ridiculous thing? You're anything but a burden, Tanjirou!"
"Do I need to knock some sense into you?" Shinazugawa almost growls, biting Tanjirou's cheek carefully. "Anyone would be fucking lucky to have you as their omega!"
They're really good friends.
"Thank you, but there's no need–"
"We want to!" Rengoku finally says, startling him. Fortunately, his pup is still asleep, although the butterfly girls come in to take him back to his room.
"What do you–"
"We're in love with you, darling. We'd love to have Kiyoshi as our pup too but the main reason we want to mate you is because we love you."
Slowly, the blush on Tanjirou's cheeks spreads down his neck as Kanroji talks to him.
"Oh."
"It doesn't matter if you want to have more pups or not, we just want to be with you," Tomioka assures him, taking both of his hands in his.
"I can't... I couldn't possibly choose!" He blurts out, mortified. He loves them all too and it'd break his heart to have to mate one of them...
"You don't have to," Himejima assures him. "You can marry us all."
With a quiet gasp, the omega realizes that they're serious about it. He gets a little bit flustered and hides his face behind his hands before nodding and blurting out a very shy: "I'd love to!"
No one is surprised when he tells them, not even Nezuko; Aoi mumbles something like "finally!" and his Kiyoshi is just happy to have more moms and dads who probably would do anything for him.

Tumblr media
What if you were a demon who pretended to be friends with all the other Hashiras, especially Tanjiro whom you grew fond of, and decided to betray them?
[ This will take place before the Mugen Train incident ]
Tumblr media
"Yes, I understand," you answered the Demon King, Kibutsuji Muzan, who smirked as he looked down at you, placing two fingers on your chin as he raised your head, making you whimper as you avoided his plum red eyes.
"I see. I hope you haven't forgot what you're supposed to be doing, M/N," Kibutsuji stated as he forced you to look at him, his eyes seem to be buried deep in your own. "Have you found someone interesting? Hm? Was it that kid, Tanjiro? The one kid whose sister was turned into a demon?"
You shivered under his gaze as you removed your chin from his hold, the other smirking amusingly. "I did not forget, Mr. Kibutsuji. I simply am just...stalling to take their minds off of the demons."
"M/N, you do know you're a demon in the upper rank, right?" The Demon King reminded you as you flosed your eyes and nodded, Muzan smiling as he finally fled into the night, leaving you with a sullen look on your face. You looked down at the ground as tears began pouring down your eyes, quiet sobs leaving past your lips as you knelt down and placed your hands on your mouth to suppress your cries.
A certain black-haired girl that gradiented into a flame orange has been wandering around, looking for you when she woke up in her box with no signs of you beside his brother where you usually slept. Hearing your distress, Nezuko made her way outside the manor where she found you.
With your heightened hearing and foresight, you knew for sure that Nezuko would come and you already knew what was to come tomorrow. You stood up and sniffed as you looked towards the girl who looked worried before moving towards you and wiped your tears. "Thank you, Nezuko," you stated before finally going back inside the manor.
The next day, you were as fidgety as ever that you couldn't even speak much with neither of the Hashiras nor to the Golden Trio and Nezuko. "M/N," you turned towards the voice, seeing Tanjiro who was smiling from ear-to-ear. He seemed happy to see you after his training and the sun was already setting. "I've manage to explode a gord!"
You smiled at him as you nodded. "That's great! Then, will you be able to fight off the demons now?" You asked the other male who huffed as he sat down on your bed and held you closer to his chest.
"I hope so. I won't let anyone hurt you nor any of the Demon Slayers. Even you," he stated as he booped your nose making you chuckle, although that died down when you sensed the approaching of demons. "I won't even let anything or anyone hurt you."
"That feels good to hear from you, Tanjiro. But can you tell me exactly why you're protecting me when I'm stronger than you?" You asked the male who laughed as he squished your cheeks, finding you cute as he placed a kiss on your forehead. "Ah, right. That answers my question then."
He held you closer as you two drifted off to sleep. When you two woke up, it was already midnight. All of a sudden, you two suddenly heard a loud 'boom' from outside. Knowing what was already happening, you looked at Tanjiro who got his sword and held your hand, yet you removed his hand from yours. "What are you doing? I'm not leaving you here, M/N," he stated.
Hearing you say my name makes my heart flutter too much. You thought before smiling assuringly at Tanjiro who was still worried. "I'll manage, Tanjiro. Trust me."
Tanjiro nodded before finally exiting the nursing ward and into the main estate where the other Hashiras were. You sighed, looking back at Muzan whom you expected. "Hm? I knew there was something with you and that kid."
"I already did what you wanted so don't hurt them—"
"Tsk, tsk. M/N, don't you know that telling me their whereabouts and everything...would mean you betrayed them," Muzan stated, making your eyes widen as you looked back at the door where Tanjiro exited. "Go. Let's see if there're still people left."
You sneered at Muzan before finally exiting and ran towards the main manor where all the demons were chuckling and laughing evilly. Your eyes bulged out at the scene, there was blood everywhere, the thing you haven't foreseen. This was not what I saw in my sight. What's happening? You thought as you panicked.
"Who could've told them?" Tanjiro, who was the only Demon Slayer left (along with Giyu, Shinobu, Zenitsu, Inosuke, and Nezuko), stated before Giyu turned his eyes towards you where you were standing. They went back to their fighting stance as they fought off demons. You watched everything happen in front of your eyes.
How they were killed, how they became lifeless, how they took their last breaths, how Tanjiro cried as he witnessed how his friends died. You went up to Tanjiro who happened to kill the last demon who almost hurt Nezuko. "T-Tanjiro," you called.
Tanjiro looked at you with tears flowing down his cheeks. "You...M/N, did you have anything to do with this? Have you betrayed us? The only family you have?" The black haired male stated as he aided his sister who was now awake.
You were about to speak up but Muzan beat you to it. "Family? Kamado, the only family he has was the ones you killed. I'm the only family he has left," he said as tears began to pour down your cheeks.
"I-I didn't mean to, Tanjiro. Please—"
"Enough. I've had enough," Tanjiro stated as he drew his sword outand before you could sense it, he had already sliced your head with his black sword, not looking at you as he cried.
You smiled at him, as if you were victorious. "You've managed to beatan upper rank, Tanjiro. I'm proud of you," you stated as you closed your eyes and watched as Muzan gritted his teeth and fled the scene. "I'm sorry," you stated as the sun began rising, feeling yourself burn as you closed your eyes and smiled one last time at Tanjiro who began crying at your last words.

HEY!! i just wanna start by saying i love love LOVE ur stuff and I've read too much to calculate three hundred times and everything u write is so cool woohoo
and speaking of my boy Carl! i downloaded matchmaker recently, and after hours of cheating at candy crush, i found that apparently one of Carl's interests is anime??
Tumblr media
i rly don't see him watching anything other than like, death note and spirited away, but i rly wanted to see what u think abt it!
thank you so much, it means a lot to know people like carl's story 🥺💙😭
sooooooo... i'm absolutely the wrong person to ask this, 'cause i don't watch anime so my answer will be lacking.
from the ones i've seen, i agree with you about 'death note' because it has such a dark storyline, i think carl digs that a lot.
'attack on titan' is in his list for the same reason. it's almost cathartic to him i would say. don't know where he stands with this tik tok trend though lol
i haven't seen 'spirited away' yet, so i don't know what's about and can't really agree or disagree (i want to stay away from the premise 'cause i like the mystery), so let me comment on the ones i think he might dig besides those:
he read 'demon slayer' mangas and is enjoying the anime now. the humor, sometimes acid sometimes goofy, can really represent his own jokes fairly, 'cause most of them are double meaning and whenever he catches one he's like "😝 haha i get it".
also, he might really like nezuko because of the duality she's trapped in. being a demon is not easy, especially if you're travelling in a box.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
anime probably happened really early on, so 'sailor moon', 'dragonball' and 'saint seiya' ('knights of the zodiac') might've been part of his initiation. playing around while pretending to be one of them is probably the thing he did the most, especially because i think he had a lonely childhood. i definitely seem him playing as ami mizuno (sailor mercury) and the little dude in red (i think he's pegasus seiya?), because of the aesthetic they have in common.
and i don't think carl cared about being a female character at all. they have a lot in common and that's what matters to him.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
"fullmetal alchemist" is one of those pieces of media that truly mature a child quickly, since a vital part of the story was really shocking (you know the one). now it feels nostalgic to go back and watch it, and cry over that part. given he was 10 when it was first published i reckon he grew up wth it, but it's so mature i think he watches it to this day.
he might've let animes like 'sakura' or 'naruto' slip because of the themes. carl strikes me as the type of kid who was born with an old soul, so naruto repeating himself for the 50th time in the same episode could've been jarring, despite having some other amazing characters like kakashi, gaara (the love of my life) and even sasuke.
i also headcanon carl being very passionate about sakura being wasted away in stupidity for so long. SHE WAS WASTED, OK? she was so fucking capable but somehow would turn into an idiot all the time, i hated that!
now, about pokemon. i feel like every kid had their phase, and sometimes pokemon doesn't even feel like anime because it's not as underground as others can be.
still, i can see little carl with a cap on his bowl cut and fingerless gloves while playing with stuffed toys, and later on gameboy.
it's possible he still plays it from time to time, including the TCG format and pokemon go. no one can change my mind he geeks out about legendary pokemon he has in his backpack in the app.
plus, i risk to say his favorite of all time is arceus or xerneas, and his initial was squirtle.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
and i think that's all i can contribute! i haven't even scratched the surface with these suggestions, but i would like to hear your thoughts and anyone else's who digs anime and manga. i have probably seen less than 1% of what's out there, so i would love to hear from more people!

Idea! I love soul mate Au's (or at least most of them haha), sooo. When you are born, you receive the name of your soulmate/s on your arm, somewhere it can be hidden or out in plain view depending on the individual. In this kingdom, unified as one, there are a total of nine kings and queens, also known as the pillars! His grace, Tengen, has already found three of his soulmates, but he still has a fourth. You do not get your soulmates last name, just their first. Well, each of the kings and queens have the same name...Tanjirou. So, of course, at the age of 18, they call a royal announcement for their kingdom to announce the name in hopes to find him! But, cue to Tanjirou. Tanjirou and his family are poor, and though everyone loves him cause of how helpful and sweet he is, he's still given a hard time. When his parents first saw nine names on his arm? Shock. When it's the kings and queens names? Even more shock. They don't need last names to guess who they are. It's a little too coincidental. As they grow up, it's hard to hear about the royals from such poverty....so of course, they think the worst of them.
"Do not go near that castle Tanjirou. They're probably horrible...." His mother warns, Nezuko nodding in agreement. His brothers are the same, though they question sometimes if that's not true. Tanjirou listens to them cause he loves them, though he's also curious. Either way, they all skip the royal announcement....so they don't get to see the royals...in turn, the pillars don't get their soulmate....
"Don't be shy! Tanjirou? Anyone? He must be here somewhere!" Queen Mitsuri asks, though no one steps forward.
"Maybe he's shy? Or nervous? Nine soulmates is alot...." Giyu mumbles sadly, brushing the name on his arm.
"A lot? It's flamboyant! Tanjirou, come forward! Let us show you all of us, and you the same!" Tengen smiles, though his heart is sad too, Makio, Suma, and Hinatsuru looking down sadly. (Though they're are not on Tanjirous arm, by association they are also his soulmates!)
Someone finally speaks up. A boy with yellow hair, another beside him wearing a Boar mask. "Uhm...we know Tanjirou....he's not here. He's really poor, so he usually can't even afford to come to these things....he's usually working for his family....plus his family aren't....w-well....trustful...of you....." The boy stutters nervously. Silence. Then....
"Lead the way boys!" Kyojuro says loudly, already walking down. The other pillars follow suit....most everyone actually follows, so imagine Tanjirou's shock, as he's carrying wood to make coal back to the house, dirt on his cheeks, seeing most of the village....and 9 very gorgeous people standing proudly in front of him- "Oh...hi! Who are you?"
His hair is messy, although most of it is tied up, there's a little bit of dirt on his cheeks and the tip of his nose because he's been working all day and he's carrying a basket full of logs on his back. For a moment, some of the villagers think the Pillars are going to pretend nothing happened because Tanjirou looks like a mess, but then they notice they all are grinning from ear to ear, hearts in their eyes.
"Zenitsu, Inosuke? What's going on?"
"It really is you," King Gyomei smiles. "It's like I've always known your voice..."
Before Tanjirou can start thinking that maybe those expensive, beautiful clothes are not meant just for rich people, but royalty... The Pillars gather around him.
"I'm so glad to finally meet you, Tanjirou!" Queen Mitsuri sobs... She tries to hug him, but Queen Shinobu is faster and is already kissing Tanjirou's hand.
"We are your soulmates!" Kyojuro tells him, like he can't even contain the words inside him any longer.
"Oh! The hashira!" Tanjirou is about to bow, but King Obanai doesn't let him.
"No, not you."
"We'd like to meet your family, Tanjirou," King Giyuu says with a gentle smile as King Tengen takes the basket from the flustered boy to carry it himself.
"You all can go now! This is none of your business!" King Sanemi bares his teeth at the villagers. He's not really good with people... That's why he's never in charge of public announcements.
"You're very pretty," King Muichiro mumbles, taking Tanjirou's hand in his.
The redhead can't help but smile, because he knows he looks like a mess, and yet those beautiful people think he's pretty for some reason.
Maybe they really are meant to be together...
"Okay, I'll take you to them! They'll be happy to meet you!"
Tanjirou is wrong, the Kamados are not actually glad to see them... And they're not going to make it easy for them either... They don't really care who they are.
