"Dear Secret Pen Pal,

I found your letter somewhere... This may sound peculiar but could you be a fellow demon slayer?

This may sound surprising but I was at the swordsmith village not long ago and found your letter as I wander. I was able to recognize it based on your penmanship.

Did we possibly meet before?"

- Pen Pal"

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

Genya opened his eyes, reading the hand written letter in his hand.
"We've met!?"

Genya was shocked, his Pen Pal is a slayer or probably someone from the village. Hashibami here seemed rather off guard, Ginko haven't told him about this.

Muichiro sits by the porch of his estate. He lets out a calm sigh as he watches the moon alone. Ginko was behind him with her boyfriend Matsuemon beside her.

"And your telling me he thinks Tanjiro-sama is his Pen Pal?" Matsuemon whispers.

"Yeah," Ginko sighs.
"Agh... I don’t like this..."

"I'm sure it will stop..." Matsuemon pats her head.

Suddenly, Muichiro stood up and walks inside his estate. The crows watches him walk off and quietly follows, seeing him going to the rooms.

Muichiro quietly opens the door slightly, seeing Tanjiro awake while the rest were asleep. He was reading a paper on his futon, smiling, seemingly enjoying what was written.

Muichiro rose a brow, expecting a more shocked expression.
Maybe it's one of his other... Pen Pals...? He thought.

"I didn't know your owner is a stalker" Matsuemon whispers.

"The stalker is basically the Wind Hashira's brother, he's everywhere..." Ginko scoffed.

"Ehh... Too bad I don't have my things right now..." Tanjiro sighed and puts the paper in his pocket.

Muichiro sighed aswell, carefully closing the door and gently sits down. He lifts his legs and hugs his knees and used another hand to caress his forehead.

"This is confusing..." Muichiro sighed.
"Atleast I know Pen Pal is, right...?" He curved a tiny smile.

---

"Tanjiro-san!!" Muichiro said gleefully, catching up to Tanjiro who's already leaving.

"Eh? Tokito-sama??" Tanjiro turned his back, seeing Muichiro holding a bento box.

Muichiro stopped his feet, showing off his smile as he looks at the red head.
"Here! I thought you can use some watermelons in your travels...!!"

"Uwah! Arigato Tokito-sama!!!" Tanjiro happily took the box and bowed.

"Ehm... Tanjiro-kun..." Muichiro fidgets his hands, face flushing quite a bit.

"Hm? Yes?" Tanjiro lifts his head up.

"I was wondering if maybe this Saturday you can come over after Kanroji's training? You can bring your friends if you wish!!" Muichiro offered.

"Oh? Mhm! I'll try and inform them!!" He chuckled.

Muichiro softly smiles and glances down for a bit. It kind of bothered Tanjiro, seeing this side of Muichiro.

"Is something wrong Tokito-sama?"
