"You're always so gentle... even after everything you've lost. How do you do it, Tanjiro?"
"I guess... because if I let go of kindness, I'd lose the last part of myself that matters."
"WHY?! Why does Tanjiro get all the beautiful, strong girls? What does he have that I don't? Besides... everything..."
"You and Tanjiro-kun are so cute together! You HAVE to let me braid your hair sometime while you tell me all about him!"
"It's rare... to find people who ease your burden. Don't take it for granted."
"You break her heart, Kamado, and I'll break your nose. Got it?"
"I don't remember much about my family... or what love felt like. But when I watch you and Tanjiro... it makes me think maybe... it was something like this."
"I like you, Flower Face. You fight like a beast!"
"I don't have many friends... but I'm glad you're mine."
"You're strong, Y/N-chan. But don't forget, it's okay to lean on others too. Especially someone who clearly loves you as much as Tanjiro-kun does."
"Don't be so hard on yourself. Even Tanjiro messes up sometimes."
"Silence is boring! Let's light this place up with some fun and flair!"
"Show the world your burning spirit! You were born to shine like the fiercest flame!"
"You stay alive, girl. You carry important blood. But more than that... you fight for the right reasons. I respect that."
"May the ancestors guide your steps. And may your hearts remain as unyielding as stone."
"Your courage brings light to even the darkest of nights. The world is better because you exist."

Ce Breathing is a Breathing style that mimics Ice, specifically its smooth but pointy form and replicates it with the users movements. All techniques are a combination of graceful and sharp attacks that put their focus on rapid movements. Users also see themselves seemingly creating and manipulating Ice and manipulating it when unleashing its techniques.
This Breathing style is also said to be among the least common of the breathing styles as it's hard to learn. And not very easy for beginners to learn unlike the Water Breathing, which is the style it derived from and is the easiest to learn.
Ice Breathing has 9 techniques and forms at maximum.
First Form: Winter Solstice- Snowy day- With a fast frontward dash, the user will use their blade to send a powerful diagonal strike which cuts their foe in half.
Second Form: Cryonis Spin- The user will circle around their foe while spinning themselves in a repeated spinning motion that resembles a beautiful dance. All the while, the users blade cuts their foe to bits.
Third Form: Calming Blizzards- The user will deliver a series of sudden slashes that move the same way a blizzard does. When performed, a blizzard that has sharp shards of ice is envisioned by both the user and their foe.
Fourth Form: Frosty Winters- This form is one of the most deadly alongside Subzero. The swordsman will go for the foes heart and use their sword to impale it. This is the most painful form of the 9 as the foe will undergo immense pain.
Fifth Form: Glacial Flurry- The user will deliver a small series of fast circular shaped slashes. The slashes will go in horizontal and vertical directions.
Sixth Form: Icy Frostbite- This form is typically used when the enemy is distracted but it sometimes can be used in other instances. The user will leap up into the air in a graceful manner. Then, the user will charge towards their opponent but will intentionally go off to the side a little bit. Once the enemy realizes where their opponent is it will already be too late as the user will deliver a blow to their foe and will then land.
Seventh Form: Frozen Waters- This form takes on inspiration from the Water Breathing, Eleventh Form: Dead Calm. The user will focus really hard and then use their blade to send out a shockwave which will not only cancel their opponents movements but will also stun them too. this can provide the user with enough time to either deliver a blow or cut their foes head off. But this move, much like subzero, is less effective against higher ranking demons.
Eighth Form: Snowfall Rush- The user will leap over their opponent and slash them. At the same time they're slashing their opponent, the user will also perform a spin/twirl-like motion.
Ninth Form: Subzero- The most powerful Ice Breathing technique. With this move it requires the user to turn their blade firm blue which causes the blade to become an extremely cold temperature to the point where it can drastically decrease a demons body temperature to the point of certain death. Because of the deadly decrease in their body temperature the demon becomes way easier to kill and far more vulnerable. And then the user finishes them off with a super quick slice to the neck which kills the demon. However, this move proves a bit less effective on higher ranking demons such as Upper Ranks.

001
(Y/N's POV)
I still can't forget the day my whole family was killed by a demon. I just wish I was strong enough to save them but I was too weak and young that day.
I was with my family that day in the afternoon.
Y/n's mom
Rikuya! Can you go cut some woods for the fire.
Y/n (11)
Can I help Rikuya?
Y/n's mom
Y/n you know you are too young to cut wood.
Rikuya (15)
It's okay mom she can come along with me, besides I can protect her.
Y/n's mom
Ok fine just come back before dinner gets cold.
Rikuya (15)
Alright, this spot looks good. Stay over there, okay? I don’t need you getting hurt.
Y/n (11)
Tch… I’m not a baby, Rikuya.
(I crossed my arms and puffed my cheeks.)
Rikuya (15)
(laughing)Yeah, yeah, sure you’re not. But you’re still my little sister, and it’s my job to look out for you.
Y/n (11)
One day I’m gonna be stronger than you, you’ll see!
Rikuya (15)
(grinning as he picked up the axe)Oh? Is that so? Well, when that day comes, you’ll have to protect me then, deal?
Y/n (11)
(smiling big)Deal!
Rikuya (15)
Good. But until then, let me handle the dangerous stuff, alright?
I nodded, sitting down on a fallen log nearby, watching him swing the axe down cleanly through a thick piece of wood.
Y/n (11)
Rikuya… do you think I’ll ever be strong enough to protect everyone?
Rikuya (15)
(pausing, leaning the axe on his shoulder)Of course you will. You’ve got fire in you, Y/N. Just like Dad, and Grandpa before him. You’re brave — even if you’re small now.
Y/n (11)
Really? You mean it?
Rikuya (15)
(smiling softly)I mean it. You’ll be amazing one day, I promise.
I felt my heart get warm hearing that.
Y/n (11)
I’ll train really hard then. I’ll be the strongest girl in the world!
Rikuya (15)
(laughing)That’s the spirit.
He reached over and ruffled my hair, and I didn’t even swat his hand away this time.
Renjiro(7)
Rikuya! Y/n! You're back! (hugs them)
Kohana(8)
Rikuya!
Y/n! You're back! (hugs them too)
Y/n (11)
Hello Renjiro, and Kohana, how are you too doing?
Y/n's mom
Rikuya! Y/n! Renjiro! Kohana! Dinner is ready!
Rikuya (15)
Coming mother!
Y/n's mom
Alright everyone, eat up while it’s hot.
Renjiro(7)
(bouncing a little in his seat)Yay! I’m starving!
Kohana(8)
(smiling as she claps her hands) Thank you for the food!
Y/n (11)
Thank you for the food!
The family began eating, the warm scent of rice and grilled fish filling the room.
Renjiro(7)
(with his mouth half-full)Rikuya, did you cut down a huge tree today?
Rikuya (15)
(laughing)I cut a bunch of them, big and small. I even had some help.
(Winks at y/n.)
Y/n (11)
Y/N (grinning proudly): I watched him, and I didn’t even get scared!
Kohana(8)
Kohana (wide-eyed): Wow! I wanna come next time too!
Y/n's mom
(smiling softly)Maybe when you’re a little older, Kohana. It’s not safe for little girls out there.
Kohana(8)
(pouting slightly)Hmph… okay.
Rikuya (15)
Don’t worry, I’ll bring back some pretty flowers for you next time.
Kohana(8)
(brightening)Really? Pink ones?
Rikuya (15)
Pink ones, just for you.
Y/n (11)
And maybe some for me too, right?
Rikuya (15)
(teasing)You gotta earn it by chopping wood first.
The family shared a warm laugh as the evening sun painted the room in soft orange hues. It felt safe. It felt perfect.
Y/n's mom
Y/n's mom: It's bed time go sleep
All: Ok mother good night
I was sharing a bed with Rikuya and I couldn't fall asleep
Rikuya (15)
(softly)Not sleeping are you?
Y/n (11)
(whispering)I can't seem to fall asleep
Rikuya (15)
(smiling gently in the dark)want me to tell you a story?
Y/n (11)
(brightening a little)Yes!
Rikuya (15)
okay promise me you will fall asleep when I'm finished
Y/n (11)
(grinning and making a pinky promise) Promise
Rikuya (15)
(thinking for a moment, then starting)Once upon a time, there was a brave little fox who wanted to become the strongest in the whole forest. Even though she was small, she had a big heart and never gave up. All the other animals would tell her she was too tiny, but she believed she could do it.
Y/n (11)
(smiling sleepily)Just like me.
Rikuya (15)
(soft chuckle)Yeah… just like you. One day, a big storm came to the forest, and all the animals got scared. The little fox didn’t run away she ran toward the storm, and she saved her family by finding them a safe cave to hide in. Everyone cheered for her, and from then on, they called her the bravest one in the forest.
Y/n (11)
(yawning)She sounds so cool…
Rikuya (15)
(whispering)She was. And you’ll be even cooler than her one day, Y/N. I just know it.
Y/n (11)
I’m gonna be brave… like the fox… and you.
Rikuya (15)
I know you will, little sis.
He reached over and gently patted my head, and for the first time that day, my eyes slowly fluttered shut.
Rikuya (15)
(whispering, more to himself)I’ll always protect you, no matter what.
The soft sound of crickets filled the night, and soon both of us drifted off to sleep.
I woke up at some noises and screams from outside the room. Me an my brother woke up.
Rikuya (15)
(serious)Y/n get behind me.
Y/n (11)
(gets behind him)Rikuya I'm scared what's happening?
Rikuya (15)
(softly)It's alright Y/n, I will protect you.
He went to get an axe and went back to me.
Rikuya (15)
Y/n make sure you stay alive.
As he said that he told me to hide in the closet.
Y/n (11)
(scared)What about you Rikuya?
Rikuya (15)
(smiles softly)I will be fine I promise. (closed the closest door)
After he closed the closest and went outside the room I started hearing loud noises and it stopped and I heard the bedroom door open and heard foot steps. I prayed that it was Rikuya and he was alright. And the closest door opened
Demon
Well, well, well...What do we have here
I clutched my hands over my mouth, trying not to scream. My heart was pounding so loud I thought it would give me away.
Demon
(leaning closer, voice cold)A little rat hiding in the closet? How adorable.
I could barely breathe, tears welling up in my eyes. Where’s Rikuya…? Please… please be okay…
Rikuya (15)
(shouting from behind)GET AWAY FROM HER!
A blur of motion — the sound of an axe slicing through the air.
Demon
(growling as it dodges)Tch… persistent brat!
Rikuya (15)
(panting, voice trembling but firm)You won’t touch her… as long as I’m alive!
Y/n (11)
(from the closet, crying softly)Rikuya…
I could see a little through the cracks in the door — Rikuya was bleeding, but his eyes were sharp, his hands tight on the axe.
Rikuya (15)
(glancing toward the closet)Stay hidden, Y/N. No matter what you hear… don’t come out.
Y/n (11)
(whispering through tears)No… no… please…
Demon
(grinning)You’re brave, boy. But you should’ve run when you had the chance.
The demon lunged, and Rikuya raised the axe one last time.
Rikuya (15)
(shouting)RUN WHEN YOU CAN, Y/N! I LOVE YOU!"
The sound of a heavy blow. I shut my eyes, sobbing into my hands.
The room went silent. No voices. No footsteps.
Just my own shaking breath.
I don’t know how long I stayed in there, but eventually, the morning light crept in through the cracks.
Slowly, with trembling hands, I pushed open the closet door.
Y/n (11)
(softly, broken)Rikuya…?
That was the day… I lost everything.
