Being Married to Haganezuka - headcanons

Relationship between swordsmith and demon slayer was actually unheard of, but you didn't complain at all.

It was really comfortable, you lived with your husband and were close enough to be ready when needed.

Your husband was a difficult person: hot-blooded, extremely dedicated to his craft, and socially inept.

Many were sure he would never find a wife. That was until you came into the village, after all Hotaru was just a man and despite all of his heavy flaws managed to win your heart.

People hated him, and you knew that, but thankfully your presence brightened his image. Just a tiny bit. But still.

--------------

‌He doesn't just talk about work. He rants. 

A lot, actually. 

Thanks to it, you know all about his clients, even if he has very little of those.

"I need to make new swords! And guess for who! For a kid that barely made it through Finale Selection!" Hotaru complains as you hum in acknowledgement while braiding the long black locks of your husband. "I am sure he will be like the others! Not respecting my work whatsoever!"

It's a simple routine before bed. He rants, letting out some of the frustration while your attention calms him down. It's always enough to actually allow him to properly rest during the night. 

‌Sleeping with him is yet another completely different thing.

Once the two of you get into bed, there is no running away. When his arms wrap around you, it's over, you are stuck like this until the sun rises again. He is simply not letting you go. 

Hotaru will never admit it out loud, but that's exactly what he is afraid of, you were the only woman that ever wanted him, so what would he do without you around.

You are his biggest treasure, he is not letting you go. Ever.

‌ Mornings with Haganezuka are much nicer. 

He is calm and rested as you're helping him to get ready for work right after breakfast.

"I hate that mask," You say with a grimace, while looking at the ugly mask in your hand. 

Of course, you understand the whole idea of masks but it didn't change the fact you didn't like them, you preferred to see your husband without it.

He snatches the item from your hand and hands you a shawl. "You better help me with my hair," Hotaru mutters, sitting in front of you to make it easier. "You also should get ready."

With an eye roll, you started to wrap his hair, making sure they won't bother him during the work. "I am just as ready as you are," you sum up, tying the shawl as tightly as possible. 

Once you were done he got up, put on the mask and turned to you. "I love you," he admits, while his hands move to your collar to properly button it.

Looking up at him, "I... I love you too...," you say with a soft grimace, making him frown under the mask. "What's your problem now?”

"Sorry. It's hard to say with that thing on your face," you admit slowly.

"You're annoying," He scoffs and turns to leave.

After grabbing your sword, you could follow him, walking by his side and holding his hand until you reach your post. Only then the two of you finally part ways for the day.

‌Hotaru is the one taking care of your sword. 

How could he not!

Not only he's a swordsmith, but he is also your husband, so his duty to you is doubled or even tripled! Not to mention, the sword is his own creation.

"Did you clean it? Are you sure it's clean? Maybe you chipped it? Let me see!"

You need to keep him away, using your own hands to make sure he won't get to your sword. "Hotaru, love. I am sure of all of it," You sigh, but before you know it he already has his hands on it. 

How did he even do that?! 

With careful eyes, he checks the blade and handle to be fully sure you're telling the truth. 

He couldn't allow his beloved wife to walk around with a sword that isn't properly taken care of. Hotaru wanted to be sure you are safe. "It's getting blunt. I will sharpen it for you. You can take the other one."

And just like that, your husband is off to do his things. There is no stopping him nor making him postpone the work.

Speaking about work!

Hotaru is hard working and stubborn.

Once he gets to work... He. Is. Gone. 

The mix of passion and dedication in his case are actually a "deadly" combination. There is no way of pulling him away. Sadly, even as his own wife, you don't have this privilege.

Once, when you attempted to take the sword away to stop him, Hotaru snapped at you, his voice filled with frustration. "Don't you see I'm busy? This must be done, and I won't deliver a poorly made sword!"

After that, you never tried that again.

He can be gone for the whole day and night while forging a new blade. It's annoying when you cannot spend the evening snuggling with your husband. 

‌BUT you are actually useful when he loses his temper! 

"Y/N-sama!"  One of the young apprentices yells, getting your attention immediately. Kids here love you since you are much nicer than Hotaru, but one of them approaching you while on duty isn't something usual.

"What is it? Did something happen?" You ask, giving the boy a soft smile.

Boy nodded quickly. "It's Haganezuka! He lost it again."

Letting out an annoyed sigh, you nod and quickly follow the boy just to find your husband held by three swordsmiths, while he's thrashing around to get free while another swordsmith stood nearby.

"What happened here?!" You ask with a frown. 

Hotaru growls. "He interrupted my work! I was almost done with the sword! Now I will have to start all over again! I'll kill you!"

You blink and rub your face, no matter how many times it happened, you still couldn't get used to it. "Hotaru. That's enough, let's go home. I will make you mitarashi dangos."

He immediately stops his thrashing around and looks at you. Other swordsmiths look at each other confused and slowly let him go.

Instead of attacking the man that took the sword, he walks to you and hugs you tightly. "Let's go. I want mitarashi dangos."

Of course, it's not the only situation like this. Things like this often happen because of his temper. Sometimes you need to resort to tickling his sides, but this ends in you dragging him back home and him later scolding you for even doing this.

‌ Since he works hard. He gets hurt.

Hotaru hates this, but at the same time he loves it. No one likes to get hurt, and he as a swordsmith sometimes gets his hands a little damaged in his work fever.

It's annoying. Wounds even if shallow still hurt and disturb the work.

Thankfully, he has you and he can always count on your help. He will not admit it, but he loves the way your palms feel against his own when you wrap his injuries.

You are a slayer, yet your hands are small and soft compared to his. Not to mention, you are always so gentle and careful while taking care of you. No one else can take care of his injuries just like you do.

"There you go," you say sweetly, tying a knot on a fresh bandage on his hand. Before he can thank you, you press a soft kiss to the injury. "I told you to be careful and to work less, but you never listen. Is it really that hard to listen just a little bit? For once?”

No matter how many times he returned home with cuts or/and abrasions, you always helped him and then scolded him. Normally he would get angry at someone for talking to him like this, but when it comes to you; Hotaru can't be mad, he actually feels oddly happy you do this. 

--------------

In summary.

Hotaru is a good man. 

Others may hate him for his slightly angry nature, but that's because no one knows him like you do, not even a village chief.

He loves you in his own way and is forever grateful for you and the fact you love him back just as much.

Some people think you may regret marrying such a man, but you truly don't. He is the best thing that ever happened to you, and you wouldn't change him for anyone else.

author's note: HAPPY VALENTINES MY LOVELIESSS!! I HOPE YOU ALL SPEND THIS DAY NICELY WITH YOUR LOVED ONES ( ˘ ³˘)♥︎ also, they made douma look so hot in the new ep oh great heavens. added a bit more than jusy /dating/ relationship hcs and added more sweetness because it's 02/14! i hope u enjoy this and have a lovely dayy!! <33

𝙗𝙚𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙞𝙣 𝙖 𝙧𝙚𝙡𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙨𝙝𝙞𝙥 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙮𝙤𝙧𝙞𝙞𝙘𝙝𝙞...

it doesn't matter who liked who first, yoriichi will confess to you as soon as he is sure about his feelings

will also find the right timing and place for his confession, to make sure that you are comfortable

although he does care about your feelings, he does not mind the chances of reciprocation. he's at ease as long as he's able to confess

in the early stages of your relationship, yoriichi is kind of awkward and hesitant about the way he acts around you

kind of treats you like you're made of glass and very tense when you two are alone

but all that dissipates after a few weeks

takes you out on dates at least once a week, it is an unspoken rule

be it he plans a picnic on a sunday, or shows up at your doorstep at eleven in the evening to go to a hot spring, he will find time to be with you

his kasugai crow will always land at your windowsill every other night, a letter from yoriichi carefully tucked in its beak

the letter's content was about how he was doing, the details of his mission, how much he misses you, how he looks forward to your next dates, and how he falls asleep every night to the thought of loving you the next morning he wakes up

he knows that you know how dangerous and difficult his job is as a demon hunter, which is he reassures you all the time, that he will be safe

lets you treat his wounds (very rare though because he always gets out unscathed) because it makes you feel at ease

whenever he comes back from a mission, no matter the duration, he'd always have something for you

be it a new kimono, a trinket, a pair of earrings, or even sweets, yoriichi will never come home empty handed

during his day offs, he'd always ask you if there are places you want to go to or if you only want to stay in

if you choose the former, you two would visit the place you like with yoriichi by your side at all times. not too suffocating nor too far, he's just, there

holds your hand in public as long as you are comfortable with it and takes you to try different cuisines

if anyone gives you any sort of suggestive or ill gaze, all your lover needs to do is to send a condescending gaze to the other person

if ever you want to stay indoors, yoriichi will take this time to help you with the chores

he cooks from breakfast to dinner and tries to minimize your workload

tries to learn how to sew, and does repairs in the faults in the house too

as for sleeping together, yoriichi is fine with either being the small or big spoon, as long as he sleeps nect to you

he prefers to be the small spoon after long missions, while he prefers to be the big spoon on normal days

very gentleman, we already established this on your first date in the night theater

the epitome of beauty, of grace, of purity

yoriichi is everything you'll ever need, you'll ever want

and you're the one he needs, the only one he'll ever need

and as your relationship continues to bloom and grow deeper and stronger, talks about marriage starts to appear

plans about the future are spilled from the lips

and yoriichi is afraid, because nothing is for sure

he's not a god, nor a deity, nor some sort of invincible being, he's no more than just a master of his craft

but yoriichi also wanted to be selfish for once

and it was worth it

the smile on your face when he put the ring on your finger, the blush on your cheeks as you walked down the aisle, the light in your eyes as he pulled you for a kiss

the joy he felt as he tied the knot with you, outwighed all the negative feelings he felt beforehand

cooking meals together, picking fruits in the forest, swimming in the lakes, gardening and planting together

don't forget the silly dances in the living room while he hums your favorite song, the moonlight outside making him look more breathtaking

oh, only if you knew how much yoriichi adored you with every inch of his being

how much he thanks the gods before he sleeps for giving you to him. how much he thanks the gods when he wakes up that he's given another day to be with you

only if you knew how much yoriichi loves you more than his own life and duties

how much he wants to cling to you just like he did to his mother, everyday for the rest of your lives

how much he looks up and respects you because of your strength like his older brother

only if you knew the regret that filled him when he sees you and your unborn child's dead body on the tatami mat

only if you knew that he spent the rest of his life making sure that the same tragedy will never befall on another family

and you do, you know

because yoriichi felt at home at last when he sees you and your brilliant smile in the afterlife, your left arm cradling your son

yoriichi felt at home when he had you both in his embrace

because yoriichi tsugikuni, the founder of all the breaths, the strongest there is, got to where he is today because of you

he managed to have the breath of sun, because you brought it to his world

after endless nights of looking at the moon, you gave him the sun, the stars, and everything else

he was chosen by the gods, he was given the strength, the sight, the power and speed. he was chosen to put an end to the misery in the world

and he's glad you chose him

you chose him to be your home

and that was the best decision you ever made

additional a/n:

me writing the first half: mhm okay, we will write fluff because in this house, we adore yoriichi

me on the second half: yknow what, let's add a pinch of angst because why not

me at the end: OH WAIT YEAH IT'S VALENTINES! oops, hope you still like it though

author’s note: sorry, anonnie, that you waited so long :( love u!

↘ Yoriichi is a traditional man who doesn’t show much emotion.

↘ You were the only person around him who got to know him enough to make dark-haired trust you fully and give you his uncertain, delicate heart.

↘ Your tenderness, intelligence, and knowledge of many things (like such as cooking, reading books, writing, growing plants or caring for animals) impressed him, and although you weren’t as physically strong as he was, nor could you use melee weapons, your strong heart and soul gave him a lot of support; physical and mental. Especially mental, in these hard times.

↘ It took a while, but one day, when you were preparing dinner for your boyfriend (vegetables with chicken and rice, as well as some tasty side dishes), moving your hips slightly to the rhythm of birdsong and sizzling meat, Yoriichi just came up to you, hugged you from behind and asked if you would be his forever.

↘ He swore to you his eternal love and faithfulness, and promised to protect you and be by your side in times of poverty, illness, and even war. Of course, you agreed without hesitation, and sealed your decision with a long, passionate kiss and long, long hug.

↘ Then you two had dinner for the first time as a full-fledged engaged couple, and indulged in some alcohol and a piece of cake you had baked the day before.

↘ Yoriichi was happy, you knew it even though he didn’t show it as always.

↘ Your wedding wasn’t spectacular; your beloved’s older brother appeared on it together with his long-term partner. Yoriichi’s parents and one friend with his wife and two-year-old child also arrived. From your side came: your two friends, their partners and children and of course your closest family (father, mother, siblings)..

↘ Nevertheless, delicious food and a dozen or so bottles of sake made the intimate event livelier and more pleasant. Everyone spent time as if there was no tomorrow.

↘ It was a successful day… The wedding night was also very successful, if you know what I mean.

Beautiful artwork!!!

Redraw of a post I did last year!
