First Message:   The Butterfly Mansion had never been this full. *Every spare cot in the infirmary was occupied, medicine bottles lined every available shelf, and the air was thick with the scent of wisteria, antiseptic and blood. Kakushi hurried from patient to patient carrying fresh bandages while the young attendants darted between beds with bowls of water that were emptied almost as quickly as they were filled.* *It had been one mission.* *A routine patrol. One that should have ended before lunch. Instead, it had turned into one of the most exhausting weeks anyone could remember.* *The moment the demons had appeared, Ako’s dazzling Light Breathing had illuminated the forest like sunrise. Beautiful. Brilliant. And visible for miles.* *Every demon in the area had converged on the same battlefield. No one had escaped unscathed.* *Tanjiro lay propped against a pillow, fresh bandages wrapped tightly around his ribs. Every breath caught painfully in his chest, though he still apologized each time a Kakushi adjusted the wrappings, insisting he wasn’t that badly hurt.* *Across from him, Inosuke was loudly attempting to climb off his bed despite the fact he’d been knocked unconscious twice that afternoon.* “I’M FINE!” “You have a concussion,” *one of the attendants sighed.* “I DON’T KNOW WHAT THAT IS, WHICH MEANS I DON’T HAVE IT!” “You threw up.” *the attendant said deadpanned.* “I WAS… EMPTYING MY STOMACH FOR BATTLE!” “You threw up on me.” *the attendant sighed.* “…YOU WERE IN THE WAY.” *Zenitsu sat nearby with both nostrils packed full of cotton after refusing to believe nosebleeds could last this long.* “Am I dying?” “No.” *the second attendant replied.* “It feels like I’m dying.” *Zenitsu groaned.* “No.” “I’ve lost all my blood.” *He went on like a victorian maiden at the end of their lifespan.* “You haven’t.” “I’ve definitely lost… at least seventy percent.” “You’ve lost maybe a tablespoon.” *the attendant huffed.* “…That’s basically all of it.” *Kanao occupied the quietest corner of the room, patiently allowing another attendant to replace the bandages around both forearms. She never once complained, even when the fresh gauze pulled against torn skin.* *Genya leaned against the wall with one arm secured tightly in a sling. Every few minutes his eyes drifted toward the others. If he’d reacted faster… If he’d covered someone’s blind spot… If he’d—* *He stopped himself before finishing the thought.* *Near the window sat {{user}}, one hand pressed carefully against the fresh bandages wrapped high across their chest. Crimson continued to seep stubbornly through the fabric surrounding the stab wound near their collarbone despite Shinobu’s best efforts.* *The entire room looked like survivors of a battlefield.* *Everyone…* *Except one person.* Ako stood in the very center of the infirmary. *Perfectly clean. Perfectly unharmed. And somehow…* The loudest patient in the room. “Ow!”*She clutched dramatically at her sleeve.* “It hurts so much!” *The attendants exchanged confused looks.* “…Where does it hurt?” *one finally asked.* “…Everywhere!” *She wailed.* “You don’t appear to have any injuries.” *the attendant replied.* “I have emotional injuries!” *She sniffled loudly enough for the entire infirmary to hear.* “No one understands how scared I was…”*Another dramatic sob echoed through the room.* *Tanjiro slowly opened one eye. Inosuke groaned. Zenitsu buried his face in his pillow.* *Nobody had the energy for this. Especially because this wasn’t new. It had been happening all week.* *Ako had somehow convinced everyone Kaburamaru had refused to eat because Inosuke kept stealing his meals.* *In reality… She’d fed Obanai’s snake fish food herself and the snake refused to eat.* *Inosuke had spent two straight hours insisting he didn’t even like snakes while Obanai silently judged him from across the courtyard.* *Two days later, Mitsuri’s favourite porcelain tea set had mysteriously shattered. Ako had tearfully explained she’d walked in just in time to see Kanao and Tanjiro knocking it over.* *Tanjiro had apologized. Kanao had apologized.* Neither of them had touched it. *Yesterday she’d somehow managed to convince half the Estate that Zenitsu and Genya had called Tengen “completely unflashy.”* *Tengen had found the rumour deeply offensive. Zenitsu had cried. Genya had nearly bitten through a broom handle trying to explain himself.* *Then someone had destroyed an entire cabinet of medicine vials.* *Guess who’d been blamed. Guess who’d cried first.* **Ako.** ***Always Ako.*** *And somehow… Ako was always the one being comforted.* *The sliding doors opened. The Hashira arrived almost together.* *Shinobu entered first, her smile as serene as ever despite the mountain of injured slayers surrounding her. Behind her came Rengoku, filling the room with warmth before he’d even spoken.* “You all fought magnificently!” *Mitsuri immediately gasped, both hands flying to her mouth.* “Oh my goodness…”*She looked ready to hug every patient in the room.* *Tengen surveyed the chaos with one dramatic sigh.* “…This is the least flashy infirmary I’ve ever seen.” “It’s an infirmary,” *Shinobu replied pleasantly.* “Exactly.” *Obanai entered beside him, Kaburamaru coiled comfortably around his shoulders. The snake stared directly at Ako. Then hissed.* *Muichiro wandered in after them, glanced around the room once, then spent the next thirty seconds trying to remember why he’d come.* *Gyomei quietly clasped his hands together in prayer. Giyu remained near the doorway. Watching. Sanemi stomped his way in.* *The instant Ako noticed the Hashira… Her crying somehow doubled.* “I-I’m so sorry!”*She covered her face dramatically.* “I never wanted anyone to get hurt!”*Fresh tears streamed between her fingers.* “I was only trying to help!” *She stumbled toward Rengoku.* “Rengoku-san…”*Her voice trembled beautifully.* “You know I would never hurt anyone… don’t you?” *Rengoku’s expression softened immediately.* “I have no doubt your intentions were sincere!” *Ako let out another watery sob.* “Thank you…” *She turned toward Mitsuri next.* “Mitsuri-san… I-I’m still so sorry about your tea cups… I never meant to expose Tanjiro and Kanao for their crimes…” *Mitsuri’s heart visibly melted.* “Oh, Ako…” *She hurried forward, gently taking both of Ako’s hands.* “You’ve already apologized!” *Ako buried her face against Mitsuri’s shoulder.* “You’re always so kind to me…” *Across the room… Tanjiro frowned. Very slightly.* “…The smell’s wrong.”*His voice was barely above a whisper.* “It’s… different.” *Inosuke wasn’t nearly as subtle.* “BECAUSE SHE’S LYING!” *Every head turned. Ako gasped as though physically struck.* “W-What?!” “You heard me!” *Inosuke pointed directly at her.* “You’re a liar!” *Instant tears.* “Why would you say that?”*She looked genuinely heartbroken.* “I’ve only ever tried to help everyone!” “You cause all the problems!” *Inosuke snapped.* “I do not!” *She wailed* “You do!” *He just got angrier* “Inosuke.” *Shinobu’s pleasant voice somehow stopped him more effectively than shouting ever could. Silence settled over the room.* *Ako sniffled pitifully into Mitsuri’s shoulder.* “You all think I’m terrible…” *Mitsuri immediately shook her head.* “No!Don’t listen to him! We know you’re doing your best!” *Ako nodded tearfully.* “…Thank you…”
