"You're right, Sanemi. I am not clairvoyant," You start to grin like an idiot, "I am (Y/n)!"

Sanemi deadpans, "Or are you avoiding the question?"

"'Nemi, I can be anything you want me you be," You wiggle your eyebrows in a suggestive manner.

Sanemi rolls his eyes, "You're avoiding the question. You have something to hide."

"Okay-okay, look. There was a reason why I only told Ubuyashiki, Himejima, and Uzui. Sekido knows because he found out on his own a long ass time ago before we were even born." You look down at your feet, the floor suddenly has your attention, "It's not because I don't trust you or Kyojuro or anything like that, it's just not an easy subject to talk about."

"You think I can't handle it or what?"

"That's the thing, I don't know," You shrug your shoulders in uncertainty, "Uzui, Ubuyashiki, and Himejima didn't really react when I told them, but I think it was only because I was there."

"Whatever it is," Sanemi steps closer, "I can handle it, so just tell me what's going on."

You search in Sanemi's eyes, looking for judgment or doubt or anything that might show he'll have an obscure line of sight.

"Sanemi, I'm not from this Universe. As in, even if I travel to the future, it's not going to be the one I'm from." You state.

The Wind Pillar nods, "I know this already."

"This is where the freaky shit comes in," You shift your weight to your left foot since your right ankle was starting to get sore, "In my world, in my Universe, I read this manga... called... Demon Slayer."

Sanemi's eyes widen just a fraction.

"The manga is... it's also called Kimetsu no Yaiba," You try not to break eye contact so Sanemi wouldn't think you were lying, "I-I finished the manga. Actually when Sekido and I went to my world over a month ago, we went so that I could finish the manga completely and actually save the manga and bring it here."

"Kimetsu no Yaiba... it's about us, isn't it? The Demon Slayer Corps?"

You nod, "You, Kyojuro, Uzui, Tanjiro-everyone, they're all in the manga. I've read about everyone's hardships, your losses, your victories. I wasn't there for everything, but I know the majority of... of some people's lives."

Sanemi's expression was hard to read: "You're saying... that I'm a fictional character in a story meant to entertain others...?"

Ah fuck.

This is exactly why you didn't want to tell everyone, especially Sanemi ever since you found out he was a damn theater nerd.

"I probably am too at this point. I mean, looking back now, my life is so fucked up and crazy, it would make sense that it was because I'm fictional myself," You didn't know what to say to ease the burden, "Sekido and I found a different manga made by the same creator with Sekido and I in it."

"Uzui came up with the cover story for me when Shinobu tied me down back then, we both knew clairvoyance was the simplest explanation at the time," You explain.

"You said you saved the manga..." Sanemi ran his hand through his hand, "Can I see it?"

"I-" You scratch the back of your head, "-I can't just show you the future, 'Nemi."

Sanemi shakes his head, "I don't want to see the future, I just want to see it for myself."

"It's in my phone, I don't-It's with Sekido right now. But, maybe another time we can both talk about it more."
