The moment everything changed was the moment Doma felt something within him. His chest was not hollow - his heart was not still... not anymore. Something in him stirred and he felt a small twinge of his lungs, filling him with foreign warmth. Suddenly, the world was vibrant, and at the center of it was her. She was called Kotoha, a young woman with dark hair, deep beautiful eyes, and a truly lilting voice that seemed to soothe the heavens in its softness. 

Doma was transfixed. The baby in her arms suddenly didn't seem so annoying in its cooing and her smile didn't seem fake as he assumed most were.
The day everything changed was the day Doma smiled for the first time.

The Memory Keeper (Naruto Fanfic) by slasheRR

The bandages that covered his face in life have fallen away, all incinerated and hanging loosely around his neck. His face is completely destroyed. Unrecognizable. The skin covering his face is no longer there, all having melted away. His blood vessels have all burst, his nerves have fried along with the majority of his muscles. His jaw opens and closes a little bit. His eyes bore into me. They're large and round and completely accusing. His teeth are covered in bits of burnt muscle. I feel my heart thudding in my chest. He steps closer, closer. His bone gleams in the dim light. As he closes in on me, a pounding noise begins ringing through my ears. My heart beat- ba-dum. Ba-dum. Ba-dum. It looked like he had been tossed into a fryer, fried alive, and he had been. By me. I did this to someone. I killed someone's team mate, someone's son. I killed someone's important person. -- Kimiko Kioku, a memory keeper. Never forgets anything, always notices, from the exact way the wind blew her hair against her face to coloring with her brother at five to the lullaby her mother would sing to her as she rocked her when she was not even a year old. She remembers. She remembers the blood, the glassy, clouded over eyes her brother had as he said his last words. She remembers the very first person she killed. She remembers how abandoned she feels, and how everything always feels like it's falling apart at the seams. (Can you say 'worst summary ever to exist'? Okay, maybe not that bad. But still pretty bad.)

B. L. U. E. (InoAoi // Inosuke x Aoi // Kimetsu no Yaiba) by author9999

"So tell me, Aoi - tell me, why do you, a person who doesn't even want to lift a sword, can make a strong man like me feel sick and weak without you?" "You annoy me, kiss me when you're not supposed to and always steal food. But you broke my walls down and made me fall, real hard, in love with you too." Inosuke is a short-tempered young man who grew up in the mountains. He learned about affection and love through his two best friends, Tanjiro and Zenitsu. The women he cared for in his life are dead. Aoi survived the Final Selection, but she thinks of herself as weak and incapable to defeat demons. In turn, she becomes a helper at the Butterfly Mansion and is always attending to the sick and injured. As he spends more time in the Butterfly Mansion, waiting for his best friends to wake up, Inosuke realizes that he gets drawn to Aoi. How is that possible? They fight all the time. "What are you looking at?" Aoi growls. "I use my eyes to look at whatever I want!" Later, seeing Kanao getting together with Tanjiro and Nezuko falling in love with Zenitsu; sometimes Inosuke wonders if a strong man like him doesn't need a woman. He is wrong. He isn't immune to love. Warning: Slow-burn romance. I depict realistic circumstances related to the age of characters, historical period and their respective personalities. [p/s: This story takes place after the defeat of Muzan. The male main characters and the girls are already seventeen. The universe is still exclusively following the manga/anime. Non-manga readers, you have been warned]

Apathetic by senortia

Apathetic: Void of feeling; not susceptible of deep emotion; passionless; indifferent. Art by: kiriririririri (Douma's a human instead a demon. His mom's name will be Aiko and his dad will be Kazue. Not official) He couldn't "feel" of what you call "emotions". Even in his very small age. Which normally children will be full of them as they easily express themselves but not for Douma. Although, he has heard of them, he doesn't know what it's like to have such things inside of you. Or even understand them. He doesn't even try since he doesn't see the value of them. Or why they exists. Or if they are. He pretends to have them with false friendly personality and a false cheery side. He doesn't even receive what you call "affections" from his own parents. Though he doesn't care. They're too busy grooming him into the religious leader of the Paradise Faith cult. They focus on making him the true founder who is gifted with his magnificent eyes from the Gods. Since they believed he can hear the voice of Gods rather than giving him "love" which is such a weird term to him. They're making him carry such responsibilities of hearing people's burden. He doesn't mind of course. The fact he has to pretend to even care about his followers' boring "sob" stories. Especially when they don't accept something so simple. "Once they die, it's all just gonna return to nothing. They won't feel anything." That's what he truly believes. "And then they rot into the ground. As long as you live on this Earth, that's your eternal fate." But he also believes he would help them. To make them happy. To have them to be a part of him. However that changed when he met a pretty but naive girl by the river in the deep woods. He honestly thought she was pretty stupid. But. He couldn't help to enjoyed being around her. To the point, he actually feels. How long will this last? Is this okay? It's starting to change his thoughts about reality and himself.

Till The Moon Shines by YorehEira

...For the first time, Kokushibou's hold on his sword was shaky. A wave of unexpected emotions flowed through his mind as he laid two choices before the bruised girl before his eyes, "Either die once or burn for eternity. Though I advise you to choose the former, the choice is yours, Megumi." "𝑫𝒐𝒆𝒔 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒍𝒂𝒕𝒕𝒆𝒓 𝒎𝒆𝒂𝒏 𝑰 𝒈𝒆𝒕 𝒕𝒐 𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒚 𝒃𝒚 𝒚𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒔𝒊𝒅𝒆, 𝑭𝒂𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓?", said the young woman looking up at the demon, who was once the father who would turn the world upside down for her...

I probably accidentally used she/her pronouns in this for Y/N.... Sorry if i do/did «» "are they the children to Master Muzan?" A demon asks another demon, who shrugs in response ---- Y/N who was hated in their home village when they were a human. They were considered a freak after one of their eyes became (f/c) for a few seconds. No one knows why Y/N's eye became a different color. Y/N then became a demon, and Muzan took Y/N in and their sisters as his own children. Why? No one knows Something about Y/N was different. ~•~ I OWN NOTHING OF DEMON SLAYERS ACCEPT MY OCS!
