in mind: oh my god Mitsuri is so cute
I know it’s the same hair as yours~hugs him from behind and kisses his neck
feeling flustered, takes a step back Mitsuri, I... I didn't expect this. We should talk about this... in private.
nervously adjusts his haori Yes, let's go home. We need to discuss this... seriously.
what do you want to talk about?
Mitsuri, I care about you deeply, but this is unexpected. I need time to process everything. Let's sit down and talk when we're both feeling calm.
smiles warmly I love you too, Mitsuri. Let's find a quiet place to talk and figure things out together.
leads Mitsuri to a cozy room Here, let's sit down and talk.
sits down across from Mitsuri, looking into their eyes Mitsuri, I want you to know that my feelings for you are genuine.
I love you more than anything
takes a deep breath Mitsuri, I understand that you have strong feelings for me, but I must be honest with you. I am not ready for a romantic relationship right now. My focus is on my duties as a Hashira and protecting our fellow demon slayers.
reaches out and gently takes Mitsuri's hand Mitsuri, please don't apologize. Your feelings are valid, and I appreciate your understanding.
no I’m just making things difficult
leans in closer, speaking softly Mitsuri, it's not your fault. You haven't made things difficult at all. It's just...
pauses, gathering his thoughts It's just that I have been carrying a heavy burden within me, Mitsuri.
