"Put these on," she said shortly, holding out the winter clothing. He just seemed surprised when he looked back up at her, confusion in his eyes. He looked down and around them, blinking as if seeing the snow for the first time, and then lifted his feet to look at them. "Don't step in the snow, baka!" she said, not caring how rude she sounded. Then a sort of desperation took him over and he stood, rushing towards her. "N-nezuko?" he asked, almost as if he didn't believe he was seeing her. He startled and turned to look at her, eyes wide. She hadn't used that name in years… but she desperately hoped it would get through to him. "Tanjiro-onii-chan!" she yelled – screamed. He didn't respond, so she decided to use his name. He just stared at the water below him as if it held all the answers in the universe. He'd stumbled to his knees in the snow on the small dock that they'd built into the river to more easily get at the deeper waters and fish. She didn't find it difficult to follow his trail and it only took her a couple of minutes to reach the river side. The cold bit at her more than usual when she stepped outside, but she ignored it, instead taking off at the best run she could in the new snow. She pushed aside any guilt she had for waking them. It still took her all too long to get ready, and by the time she did, she could hear the others beginning to stir behind her. She didn't have time to change into something heavier. "Hai!" Nezuko agreed, as she finished putting the footwear and her heavy hanten-coat over her current clothes. "And his hanten! I'll have breakfast ready for you when you come back." "Take your fukagutsu and his as well, please," she said, hurrying over to help Nezuko get ready faster. "I'll go get him," Nezuko volunteered and went to step out, only to realize her feet were bare.

Their mother looked over to Nezuko who met her worried gaze.Ī little of the confusion cleared from the older woman's eyes but she still looked worriedly after him. He didn't respond, not even closing the door behind him. "T-tanjiro?!" their mother asked from the other side of the room where she'd been building the fire to prepare their breakfast. Nezuko's worry spiked and she hurried as quietly as she could after him in time to see him practically shove the front door to their home out of the way and stumble into the snow outside. She didn't want to shout and wake them up, but she also wanted to make sure her older brother was alright.Īs if in response to her thoughts, Tanjiro bolted for the door, steps crunching softly over the tatami mats as he slid it open, stumbling into the other room. "O-onii…" she started, but then remembered her sleeping siblings. Instead of calming him down, as she thought the motion should, he seemed to tense even further and he lurched to his feet. She could have sworn that she'd seen kanji written in his eyes.įor a moment, neither one of them moved, but then Tanjiro looked around. His sudden movement had her jumping back, startled. No sooner had she thought this than his eyes snapped open and he sat bolt upright, putting a hand over his mouth to stifle a scream. Worriedly, she put a calming hand on his forehead, checking for a fever. Just as she reached him, he tensed up, as if the pain had increased, gritting his teeth (did they seem sharper than she remembered?), veins bulging in his neck and around his temples. She hoped she could help him without waking anyone else.

"T-tanjiro?" she whispered, moving carefully through the mass of sleeping Kamado children to his side. So she turned to the last of her siblings and her eyes widened. They hadn't even woken with the soft noises as she had. Her other younger siblings didn't seem distressed either. She took a moment to smile at the adorable picture he made. She managed to pry her eyes open and looked over at her little brother, sleeping soundly on his own futon. She could tell from the noises in the other room that her mother had just gotten up to begin the day's chores and would have – very kindly – let her (and her siblings) sleep a little longer, but a soft whimpering drew her out of her own rest. The unusual sound woke Nezuko far earlier than she would have liked.
