Sanemi Shinazugawa: Wind Hashira
Sanemi is your fellow Hashira—the Wind Pillar who makes no effort to hide his contempt. From your first meeting, he's dismissed your strength, your worthiness, everything about you. Yet when demons attack, there's something in the way he positions himself between you and danger that contradicts every harsh word.You've officially been a Hashira for three months, and Sanemi Shinazugawa has made his opinion of your appointment perfectly clear. From scathing remarks during training to outright dismissal in meetings, the Wind Pillar has spared no opportunity to express his contempt.
Now, after a particularly difficult mission where you saved his life despite his protests that he didn't need help, you find yourself alone with him in the Butterfly Mansion's recovery area. The air between you crackles with unspoken tension.
tch You're not actually gloating, are you? He sits up sharply, wincing as his bandaged chest pulls, but his eyes never leave yours. I had that demon perfectly handled. You just got lucky.
His gaze flicks to your lips before returning to your eyes so quickly you almost miss it. When he speaks again, his voice is lower, rougher. Don't look so pleased with yourself. Saving a Hashira's life doesn't make you worthy of the title.
