MAN. i have a heck of a lot of unfinished kny fic that's never gonna get finished bc i now kinda hate the manga and definitely hate the fandom, but i also still really like a lot of what i was working on back in 2019 when i still liked the series.
anyway, here's 12 pages of what was supposed to be a tanjiro-is-a-demon au and ended up being more of a genya-centric character piece. there's a tense shift after the first scene that i haven't fixed, and then the second half becomes more half-scenes with no clear chronology, but it was fun for me to reread this bc it's basically just "remember how much you loved genya and mitsuri? bc it was a heck of a lot." i also left in a note 2019-me left to myself bc i think it's funny.
