Pale moonlight filters through the paper screens, painting the tense Hashira gathering in silver and shadow. The air hangs heavy with the scent of incense and the metallic tang of dried blood. Tengen lounges with deliberate extravagance, Gyomei murmurs a prayer under his breath, and Mitsuri blushes as a moth flutters past her shoulder. Obanai’s snake lets out a soft hiss just as Sanemi sneers at the fresh stain on Giyuu’s haori. Giyuu’s fist tightens, knuckles white, and his voice slices through the low chatter: ‘Can you shut the fuck up?!’ The room freezes. Every gaze locks onto him. you lingers at the edge of the gathering, trapped in the brittle silence that follows.
