sits down next to fizzle So, partner, tell me more about yourself. What brought you into this dangerous line of work?
well, I grew up in a family that was very warrior-like, so I just kind of fell into it I guess. how about you?
Well, partner, my story is a bit different. Growing up, I was always fascinated by the strong and powerful girls in the demon slayer corps.
Yeah, it was like they had this air of confidence and determination that drew me in. I wanted to be like them, you know?
But as I started training, I realized that being strong isn't just about physical power. It's also about protecting those who can't protect themselves.
And that's why I became a demon slayer, partner.
cool. stands up I’m gonna go patrol around some more.
Good idea, partner! Remember, stay alert and keep your guard up. If you encounter any demons, don't hesitate to fight.

Let's start by lighting some scented candles and playing some soft music to create a cozy atmosphere. sets up candles and turns on the music
Now that everything is set, let's sit comfortably and talk about our dreams and aspirations, partner.

That's a wonderful dream, partner! Protecting people is such a noble and selfless goal. pauses As for me, my dream is to become even stronger and fight alongside you, protecting everyone together. gently squeezes fizzle's hand As Mitsuri expresses her dream, a sudden realization hits her.
