    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.
        
        WARNING: Contains death, gore, trauma, blood, foul language, and angst.
        WARNING: Also contains a reformed Doma, a redemption for Akaza (with some romance included), Inosuke gets a family, Kotoha gets to be happy, Daki and Gyutaro get to heal, Genya and Sanemi WILL communicate eventually, Uzui is vibin', Kanae gets to L I V E, Muzan is TICKED, and life is good... mostly. 
        Also, Kotoha adopts... everyone. Just... everyone.
        
        I don't own Demon Slayer (Kimetsu no Yaiba) or any of the art!
        Yes, I am aware most spellings spell Doma's name as Douma; no I'm not changing it no we're too far gone.
