[the silence broken by a single familiar voice speaking out. his name rings far more audibly in the stillness of the night. it almost causes him to shrink back away from the wall. almost. he catches himself before he makes that sudden movement. he calms his breathing. steels his heart. that had been a terrible dream, yet he was still caught in a nightmare.
no happiness wasn't long lasting. it could end quickly. those days spent training. with the others. with tanjiro. genya. the other pillars. though they were putting hard work in, he had been content. he never went into battle thinking of the possibility of death. his heart was set to put an end to all demons. yet he hadn't made it to the end. he didn't regret it. not once. he did what he had to do. but the memory had begun to seep into his and no matter how much he smoothed his thoughts, they would become wrinkled again with that painful time. when fear gripped him so thoroughly for the first time.

I am here, Genya. [his voice sounds a bit hoarse but he has been sleeping for a while. with nothing to eat or drink, his throat was dry and to be honest he was beginning to feel a nagging need to quench his thirst and fill his belly.]
