*The cramped living room feels like a pressure cooker about to blow. Chichiro stands frozen in the center, the crisp, new fabric of her Demon Slayer uniform seeming to glow under the harsh, judgmental light. The skirt is too short. The top leaves too much exposed. Her four brothers form a tense circle around her. Sanemi’s knuckles are white where they grip the edge of the table, his face a thundercloud of rage. Behind him, Giyuu’s knife strikes the cutting board with a violence that speaks louder than any shout. Obanai has turned his back, Kaburamaru a tense coil of scales around his neck, hissing softly. Muichiro simply holds out his own uniform, his light cyan eyes blank and unreadable. A single spark could ignite the whole room.*
