"There is always more goodness in the world than there appears to be, because goodness is of its very nature modest and retiring."

I know reticence has its depths. I really do. But you can go too far with the undone and the unspoken things.

not to keep beating this dead horse (jk when do i ever shut up) but i do think him and laios yelling at and beating the shit out of each other was like a gateway drug for shuro. he broke the seal on saying words out loud with his human mouth now he can say other crazy things like "thanks for following me cross-country to go dungeon diving for me i appreciate you doing that"

The Reticence of Lady Anne by Saki
The Reticence of Lady Anne By Saki (aka H. H. Munro) Egbert came into the large, dimly lit drawing-room with the air of a man who is not certain whether he is entering a dovecote or a bomb factory, and is prepared for either eventuality. The little domestic quarrel over the luncheon-table had not been fought to a definite finish, and the question was how far Lady Anne was in a mood to renew or…

Alastor angst sorta
it started as angst then spiraled
Tumblr media
@berryghostbunny
✿✼:*゚:.。..。.:*・゚゚・**・゚゚・*:.。..。.:*゚:*:✼✿  
You were Alastor's assistant when you were alive
You helped him run the radio show
The two of you became good friends, then eventually more
He would always walk you to your house as there were a lot of missing person reports in your area
You had no idea that he was the cause
Until you saw him kill someone
You tried to pretend like you didn't see anything and acted as normal as possible but Alastor caught on
He slowly got the truth out of you and once he did he killed you
Your death was the reason he got caught and sentenced to death
You both met in hell
You panicked and tried to avoid him but he stayed close to you even while broadcasting his carnage
He could tell that in hell you were a fish out of water so he proposed a deal
He would give you enough power to protect yourself from anyone and everyone that tried to harm you in exchange for your soul
"Why are you following me?" You ask as you got away from the public eye so you could talk to him.
"I just want to have a little chat, my dear. We used to be quite close after all." He smiled
"That was a long time ago." You groaned as you hugged yourself to give some type of comfort.
"Exactly, in all my days I never would've thought that you, of all people, would end up with humanities worst. Whatever did you do, my dear." Alastor said as he approached you.
"That is none of your concern."
"Oh, but it is a sweetheart such as yourself doesn't deserve this place but looks can be deceiving." He sang as he wrapped an arm around your waist and lead you down a side walk.
"I can't think of anything bad that you could have done to end up here and I'm just dying to know."
His prying eyes stared into yours, it was making you uncomfortable. You removed his hand from your waist and walked beside him.
"Why would I tell you? You're the reason I'm here in the first place." You said. You couldn't believe how wide his smile grew.
"I did not kill you because I wanted to. In fact, it was your death that led to mine." He leaned close to your ear and whispered, "You meant that much to me, my dear." The sound of static filled your ears. His confession surprised you, it reminded you of your relationship when you were alive.
"I killed my parents." You confessed, and the static stopped abruptly.

I know with Jason it's always about this specific trauma but we don't stop beating a dead robin

Annnnnd this is why I hesitate to post on ao3
Tumblr media
Everyone is entitled to their own character interpretations. This was mine. If you don’t agree, move on.
The whole point of TMTS is that Rengoku is traumatized — and it manifests in ways that are contrary to what we know of him. Again, my interpretation.

Alastor x teen reader (platonic)
short fic
summary: Alastor wakes reader after sleeping half the day.
Tumblr media
✿✼:*゚:.。..。.:*・゚゚・**・゚゚・*:.。..。.:*゚:*:✼✿
"Y/n I've let you sleep the day away. It's time to get up." Alastor said knocking on your door. He could easily let himself in, but he wanted to respect your boundaries.
After hearing nothing he knocked a little harder and said, "Maybe if you went to sleep at a decent time you would've been up by now."
He chuckled as he heard your groan and the shuffling of sheets. You cracked the door open to only show you face.
"What do you want?" You said in a tone that no one would dare to talk to the radio demon in.
"Well someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed this evening." He emphasized the fact that it was past noon, "I was wondering if you would like some tea it seems I've made too much for myself, and from the looks of it you need it."
You huffed and closed your door saying you'll be out in a minute.
Alastor had a little spot on the balcony of the hotel where he set up yours and his cup and waited for you so he could pour the tea.
It didn't take long for you to get ready and enjoy the tea Alastor made before it was interrupted-
"SHOW YOURSELF, ALASTOR!"

what if the hashiras meeting a Reader who's a special half demon his mother was turned but died during childbirth and Reader gained all the powers of a demon with none of the weaknesses and now he hunts demons
So sorry for the wait. I have not forgotten about the other requests but I did forget they were on this account so that's my bad😔.
♛┈⛧┈┈•༶༶•┈┈⛧┈♛
You walked the earth as a normal human. The sunlight didn't effect you, the need for human flesh didn't either, but your eyes we're a dead giveaway.
They shine with a (e/c) gleam that screamed 'demon'.
You grew up in a house with your father. He was a demon but he never acted like one aside from the need for blood. The village saw your father as dangerous but you were just a child in their eyes.
On night you father lost all humanity he had and massacred most of the village. You had never seen an actual demon but seeing your father, you started to grasp why everyone was so weary of him.
You watched as they killed him. He reached out for you but you just stood there. Watching with tears in your eyes.
The few that survived decided it was better if you left. They didn't want to to take the chance of you turning too.
'Being alone isn't so bad' you lied to yourself. It was torture, you took your emotions out on every demon you saw. Weather it be anger, sadness, jealousy, it didn't matter.
'We should've killed you when found out what you were'
'Your a monster'
'You never belonged here'
Their voices haunted you, but you couldn't blame them. They were scared. You were too.
You never wanted to be a demon, so you did everything in your power to act human.
Unfortunately you were found out by the butterfly hashira when a lower rank saw you take a heavy hit.
She was pleasant to be around even when she knew you were a demon. When she confronted you about it you told her everything you knew about your demon counterpart.
Your blood demon art.
First Phase: Pain killer (passive)
it allows anyone or any demon around you to feel the pain what you feel until your pain stops. It activates whe
Second Phase: breaking point (active)
While your aponent is in pain and you've regenerated you can absorb their energy and use it against them. If they are demons you can copy their demon art, if they are slayers you can copy their style if you use a sword.
You agreed to tell the rest if the hashira.
-------
You were escorted by a kokushi to be put on trail for your life.
"Are you sure it's a demon. It can stay in the sun without consequence." A slayer sitting high in a tree with a snake said as you arrived with the kokushi.
"Yes sir, he can regenerate and doesn't die from normal attacks on him." The kokushi bowed to them. "But his-" they weren't able to finish as you were grabbed away very roughly by the wind hashira.
He held you by your hair and put his sword to your throat.
"Let's see it.” 
“WAIT DON’T-” You screamed as he cut your head off. They all watch as your head disintegrates and your body falls lifeless. 
After a few minutes your body starts to regenerate, excruciating sounds similar to screaming can be heard for miles as your blood demon art activates. 
The first to be affected by it was Mitsuri and Tengen, they both cover their ears in pain, soon the rest follows. The pain was similar to getting your head ripped off nerve by nerve.
The sound doesn’t effect Kyojuro as much as the other seeing as he busted his eardrums but even with busted eardrums he felt the pain.
when your head was fully regenerated the sound stopped and you panted with your head down in exhaustion. Looking up from the ground you see the hashira with their hand still covering their ears. You didn’t even notice Kagaya and his children sit on the engawa completely unbothered by what happened.
“My children what has happened.” He said. 
'It didn't effect them?' you thought to yourself.
“I’m sorry sir I tried to warn master sanemi about Y/n’s blood demon art." The kokushi bowed many times to master kagaya.
"It's fine, I hope everyone wasn't hurt to badly." He replied looking up at the hashira gripping their head except for Kyojuro.
"WE ARE FINE MASTER." He said enthusiastically making the other groan.
"Please don't yell Kyo, if you couldn't tell the rest of us are in pain." Tengen groaned. Kyojuro chuckled while patting his back over mitsuri's head.
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to cause any trouble." The kokushi helped you up while you talked.
"You didn't. Sanemi is a wild card, you couldn't have known what he was going to do. Now to the problem at hand. What are we going to do with Y/n." He said with his usual smile even though it's a grim topic. "Y/n what is your story."
"I lived in a village until it was attacked by demons. The villager thought it was my fault and kicked me out. I've killed every demon I've come across, I'll never kill or eat humans. My father taught me my morals." You said looking kagaya in the eye.
"Seeing as one demon is among us with no problem I don't see why we can't accept another, especially one who doesn't seem to want to hurt us!" Rengoku exclaimed not as loud this time but still loud enough to make tengen shudder. By now tengen was the only one still in pain.
"A demon is a demon soon enough it will have to eat, who knows who it'll kill." The snake hashira said. You hated the way he refered to you as it instead of a person.
"Well we've seen a demon who is capable of protecting others, I just want to keep a close eye on him." Shinobu said. After she said that it was a moment of pregnant silence before someone decided to speak again.
"I'll vouch for him. I believe we could learn from him. He's half human after all." Shinobu said with a raised hand. Everyone was shocked. "He stayed at the butterfly estate for 2 weeks and hasn't shown any signs of demon tendencies. In fact he was been a wonderful guest." She said smiling to you.
"Well then does any one object to shinobu monitoring Y/n." Nobody said anything. "Hmm, Y/n will be under the watchful of shinobu."
You life is now in shinobu's hands.
-----------
Life with Shinobu was like a breath of fresh air. She taught you how to wield a sword properly, how to treat wound, and how to make medicine and poison.
Now you were an official demon slayer.
