A/N- To long for you, and the love we had.

🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘

Narrator's POV

It's been a few days since our last chapter, and here we are back at it again with our man himself; Giyu Tomioka.

It was supposed to be another boring day in the cafe, that was until Uzui decided to visit them.

"YO YO YO! IT'S ME! Tengen Uzui and my three wives!" Uzui would as always, flamboyantlt slam the doors open with Hinatsuru, Suma and Makio following his ever so ecstatic self.

The entire room of current customers looking at the obnoxious entrance, with his three wives already apologizing for his usual self.

Giyu instantly knew his rambunctious voice, stopping whatever he was doing to see if he was causing a ruckus again.

He would approach them, looking over at Uzui to see the man with his usual goofy smile, knowing full well that he has a plan again.

"Sorry for my loud friend folks, he's an idiot. As compensation, drinks are on me." Giyu speaks, with the customers cheers roaring through the room.

With that settled, Giyu would then ask with what's the sudden visit?

"I thought Rengoku told you dude, don't you remember?" He asks, with Giyu finally remembering what the flame-haired man would state.

"Oh? Yeah, I remember it. Is it today?" He asks, with a confused look. While Uzui just flashes him with his usual smile of reassurance.

"Yup, and we need yar asses there in a few hours. Depends if you're all coming or not though, but for the great Tengen Uzui, every party is a must or my mere absence can make the party gloomier than a funeral!" He exclaims, the people looking at him again for his rather boisterous remark while his wives once again apologize for his behavior.

"I see, I'll ask the two about it first. I really can't close a shop that I don't own, that and I can't just make the customers leave." Giyu replies, while Uzui just nods.

"Good enough for me buddy! Just be there okay?" Uzui speaks, before he tells them that they need to go now.

They say farewell before leaving the establishment, with Giyu waving back as he watches them. To which he already sees Uzui being scolded by the three pregnant women.

He chuckles at the sight before eventually heading back to his job, now he has to pay for everyone's drink because of Uzui's rambunctious nature... He could only sigh as he took their orders one by one before eventually returning to the kitchen to make the numerous drinks everyone has ordered.

This is gonna be one hell of a day.

A few hours later...

Giyu's POV

So, I guess we are going today.

I told Sabito and Makomo about what Uzui said, they immediately agreed saying that we needed a break after all the work we've been through... More like what I've been through but they are kidn right.

I don't like occasions but it has its purposes, one being that I don't do anything at all but talk. Either way everyone wins, good food and even better company.

I however, have another conundrum. Where the hell do I drive to? That and what the hell do I bring for the party or whatever it is?

But yeah, should I just bring one of the cakes we baked today? Wait, that's actually a nice idea.

I can make a chimera cake, slices from different flavored cakes then combine them into one.

Sounds disgusting, but honestly creative. I could probably bring some of the meats we marinated here, Kyojurou does love his barbeque.

Well... Here it goes again, time to wear the usual dad fit as Sabito says it... Every damn time I try to go on an event, I always forget the damn laundry.

Actually are they even ready yet? I should check them before I put the things in the car.

I went to check on Makomo and Sabito first, apparently Sabito was still taking his merry time in the showers while Makomo had to change the kids' clothes.

I went to Iako next, she was already done and packed some clothes. Which is good, she knows that we might need it since I am quite sweaty. I trust that she brought more than that, she's always ready like that.

I guess I have time to make something, knowing that Sabito might take another hour in the showers.

Hmmm... Now that I think about it, I might just have the treat for it.

I guess premaking mochi dough isn't a bad thing, now I just need to think of a filling for it.

Other than red bean paste, I also have chocolate, sakura and mocha creme in the fridge.

I should probably just mix it, variety means something. I'll probably finish a batch in a few minutes, better make a lot of it considering that everyone might come.

A few minutes later...

Narrator's POV

While we see our favorite old man making a lot of mochi, we go to their venue of meeting. THE RENGOKU HOUSEHOLD!

We already see the three men of the household cooking in their generational grill, a possession from the family since the first Senjuro (Senjuro's main version from the anime, current Senjuro is his reincarnation).

Shinjuro was teaching Senjuro and Kyojuro about the "Rengoku Style Marinade". A recipe passed down in their family, which was really good.

It was a lot of damn spices, to the point that you'd probably have flame hair like theirs.

Ruka (Shinjuro's wife) advices the guests to not take too much of it since it is hot as fuck and would probably singe the remaining tastes buds, probably their life too.

That's why she makes them cook a seperate batch for the others since nobody else can take the heat, other than her three men.

The first to arrive on the scene was Sanemi and the Kochous who were really close to them. Hell, Kuruo and Satusuki were Rengoku and Senjuro's godmother/father.

They were already helping preparing everything else, from setting up tables and finalizing the ingredients they need for the cookout later.

While that was the case, a honk would alert them. This prompted Rengoku to go and meet the arriving visitors.

Without any further distractions, he would run to the door expecting more of his dear friends to arrive.

Opening the door, he sees Uzui flamboyantly arriving; a whole lot of food in his hands as his three wives follow him.

"RENGOKU!/UZUI!" The two would simultaneously shout, giving each other their best friend shake and hugging each other.

"Please, enter! The Kochous including Sanemi are already there! Have you informed the others?" Rengoku asks, while Uzui just nods at him.

"Yup, I told everyone. Giyu, Sabito and Makomo are definitely attending after my most flamboyant convincing." Uzui replies, while Rengoku smiles.

"That's great best buddy! The more the merrier! I need more people to taste our famous Rengoku Roast!" He beams, while Uzui shudders from remembering eating the hellish to the tongue taste.

"I don't think you should give them that, you know only you and your family are the only ones who can take the heat." Uzui replies, with Rengoku just laughing.

"Haha! No matter, as long as the food is great! And the company of family and friends of course!" Rengoku replies, while Uzui nods enthusiastically.

"Oh right! Let's enter before the food gets cold!" Rengoku adds, as they all enter the house.

Now back to our favorite Giyu, who was currently trying to navigate the place.

Makomo was at the passenger seat beside him, so this means Sabito gets to take care of the kids on the car ride; which didn't work out considering how rowdy their kid was.

Other than that it was a calming drive.

"Hey Giyu, you good?" Makomo asks, snapping Giyu out of his tranced focus over the road.

"Oh? Oh... Yeah I'm fine, just thinking about things..." He'd reply, still focusing on the road.

"You sure? You know me and Sabito can take over the wheel so you can rest." Makomo offers, Sabito on the back seat nodding enthusiastically as he wanted to be away from the rowdiness of his kid.

"No, it's fine really. Although Sabito might need your help with the kids, thank you for offering." He replies, smiling at her before looking back at the road.

Makomo would then tell him to stop on the next gas station so she can change seats with Iako, plus little Yukira (Makomo's and Sabito's latest addition to the family) who was only a few months old was already crying and hungry.

Sabito also needed to take a leak, and Giyu wanted to buy some slim jims and food for them to snack on the way.

He wanted to get something to drink too, but considering he was gonna drive he decided against anything alcoholic. But he did get some juice for everyone, apple and orange.

He was about to pay for it when he hears a commotion over at the counter, two men demanding about something and the cashier seemingly scared about it.

He took a slight glance over the counter, seeing two armed men already pointing at the young woman in the cash register.

"Hand us the money little lady!" The much larger man would threaten, pointing the rifle at her as she trembles from this incident.

"Ya heard her woman! Start taking the money off the register or we start blasting you until you're swiss cheese!" The shorter and skinnier one demands, cocking his pistol and hollering her over the cash register.

Giyu sighs, how can people do this? He understands the need for money but stealing from a small business like this is bottom line evil.

He could intervene and finish this swiftly, but then again he could ignore it and sneak on the back and leave now...

But in his demon slaying instincts and his promise to protect the innocent, that and he hasn't paid for the things he got yet, he couldn't do that right?

He sighs, good lord he hates himself at times. He better finish this before Sabito and Makomo scream at him again like they wouldn't already.

He slowly approached the two men without any fear, that and with a big bag of chips.

"Hey you two, you shouldn't do this." Giyu alerts the two men who instantly point their guns towards him.

"Or what tough guy?" The bigger of the pair looks down at him.

Giyu just opens the chips on his hand before munching on one, before he speaks his mind out.

"You guys are robbing a small business, you shouldn't do that to someone who's already struggling." Nibbling on one chip as the two laugh at his statement.

"So? Why don't we just rob you too?" The smaller one replies, already pointing his gun and knife at Giyu.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you..." Giyu suddenly changes his facial expression, while the two just laugh at his attempt of changing his temperament.

"Or what little man? You going to take us both down?" The taller of the two speaks, pointing the gun at him.

Giyu just looks at them blankly, before he looks over to the cashier who was silently cowering as she drops down the desk to call the cops using what he thinks is a phone.

"Let's just shoot him already! He can't do anything without any weapons! We'll rob him too!" The smaller one looks at the big guy, telling him to just shoot Giyu.

At this moment Giyu already knew what to do, as both men point their guns at him.

He throws the chips at them as they retract themselves from his distraction, staggering them to lower their weapons.

This gave Giyu the window to dash at them and give the smaller of the two one hell of a kick which sent the man flying to the snack isle and taking a few things with him.

The bigger man immediately points the gun at him, shooting without any hesitation.

Luckily for his rather quick reflexes and the man's bad aim, the bullet misses as it hits the glass pane door of the refrigerator they stored soda with.

Giyu dodged towards one of the isles, quickly but silently trying to circle the man or hide from him so he can jump him.

But considering how the massive brute just gave out his location by calling out to him made it easier, now he just needs something to knock him out with.

Luckily for him, there was a perfectly placed metal rod next to him. God this is gonna be bloody good, well for him. That dude is gonna die.

And so he did, it was easier than expected well for a second. Giyu brought the hammer down at the dude's head, only for the rod to bend after the strike.

He tanked the hit but it did some substantial damage to his head, leaving a big bruise. But it did really piss the man off, to the point he snaps the gun in half and uses it as a club to hit Giyu who dodged seeing this.

"God damn you took a hit, what a beast." Giyu remarks, as the man charges at him grabbing him without any remorse as the two crash into the storage shelfs.

The crashing sound makes the cashier quiver, as she starts to shakingly call the authorities about this. The other man who Giyu punched the hell out of was already waking up, dazed but still alive.

Giyu noticed this, even if he was squinting from the pain of just crashing into multiple things.

He would stand up, a bit shaky from the crash. With the bigger goon following him afterwards.

He cursed to himself, running over the smaller guy to knock him out and take the weapon he forgot to take from him.

Well he was about to, but the big guy had other plans. He tripped, kicking the man so he'd let him go.

It was hard though, the big guy had an iron grip on him but Giyu still retained some of that demon slaying strength and successfully kicked him off.

He was about to look back at the smaller culprit when said goon sucker punched him using the butt of the gun.

That definitely left a bruise, and it hurt like a bitch. He cursed to himself, looking at the smaller culprit who had a shit eating grin.

"What now tough guy? Can't stand up for yourself?" The man taunts him, still panting from getting knocked out a while ago.

Giyu struggled for a bit, damn was he getting old af. He stood up, before spitting some blood and saliva before grinning at them.

"Nah, I'd win." He replies, before he readies a stance. The large man behind him already standing up to join this fight.

Giyu looked for any weak spots or any opening to take the gun away from the smaller man and finding a way to neutralize the larger man.

He dashed over the smaller man, sweeping him over and taking the gun from his hands. He takes the magazine and throws it out the shop, before he goes over kick the man in the gut to wind him out.

He turns around afterwards, a second too late as the larger man grabs him and lifts him up before slamming him down.

That cracked his back, but it did take the pain away from his crippling oldness and changes said pain with one that resonated all over his body.

It took a near skull crushing punch from the man for Giyu to dodge at the side and grab the gun he dropped. With this, he used his all of his strength to hit the man on the shin making the said man kneel and scream from the pain.

Giyu given this chance tries to knock him out with the gun, which was pretty hard considering it took more than 5 hits to the head and him tying the man with some rope over the shelfs, he hopes this actually stops him now.

With that he decided to check over the cashier, only problem was that she was already knife point by the smaller of the two.

"Step closer and the little lady gets it!" The man threatens, leaning the knife near her neck even trickling a bit of blood from her as she winced.

"Hey, there's no need for this to happen. Come on man, threatening an innocent life is no good." Giyu speaks, raising his arms and backing away.

"There's definitely a need for that! Try anything and I make sure this woman turns into a fountain in a second!" He speaks, looking at him with a sadistic smile; the woman wincing with tears in her eyes.

This was a pain in the ass, he really can't do anything or the woman gets turned into a bloody mess.

Well that was before a car, specifically the car they were in started honking. Who knew that Sabito's restlessness could help. This made the man look at wherever the noise was, giving Giyu the window of opportunity to rush the man as fast as his legs could.

He grabs the blade of the knife, surprising the man as he sends a punch at his face.

His fist connects with his face with a cracking indication, the man slicing through Giyu's hand.

Giyu hisses, nevertheless this gives the woman a chance to run away from the man's grasp. She would run outside to call for help, seeing that the police might take their sweet time showing up.

This made Giyu a bit more relaxed, but he's directed back to the man who he just broke his nose.

"Damn you!" The criminal screams at Giyu, holding his bruised and bleeding nose as he points the knife at Giyu.

Giyu just sighs, ripping a piece of his sleeve to bandage his bleeding hand with. Insulting the man when he wouldn't pay attention to his threats.

"Hey! Are you even paying attention to me you freak!" The man screams, Giyu just giving an exasperated sigh.

Giyu didn't even speak now, he just focused on taking the crook down so he can go to Rengoku's party. And that he wouldn't have any other injuries, which is low in the probability scale.

Without warning, Giyu decides to attack first with a swift jab. The robber dodging the left before heading for a stab towards Giyu's side.

Giyu blocked the hand with the knife, redirecting his hands before giving him a clean kick to the leg. This kick made the man stumble but get a hit by scratching his thigh.

This made Giyu back away from him, steadying his stance again. While he does that the man starts to get back up and readying to attack him again.

This time the man charges knife first, Giyu already knowing what to do would go into a lower stance readying for him to grab him and knock him out once and for all.

Well he definitely did that, but he still forgot about the fact that the man still had a knife on his hand, and so he was stabbed near the shoulder blade. It was definitely a dumb mistake on his side, well his aging old self.

Even with that, he still crashed the man over the solid counter top and effectively knocking him out. Which made Giyu once again sigh, in relief of course.

But before that he needed to tie the man too, it would hurt with the slash from his hand and the fact that a knife is still embedded on his back but he blazed on through it.

Sabito was just impatiently waiting at the car now rushed open to the store with the cashier woman who called for his assistance, and the fact that he already knew that Giyu was a part of this.

How he didn't notice the fight from the car and the shattering sound of glass is beyond me, but then again they parked farther from the store. Still surprised him that this was all happening while he was just sitting in the car, and him already knowing about Giyu's track record with these kinds of stuff.

"Giyu what the hell happened man!" Sabito would shout, looking over at his tattered and bloodied from everywhere. That and the knife still embedded to his back of course.

"I'm fine." He replies, merely scratching off his injuries like they were nothing. But even with that said they're quite fatal, but then again he is Giyu.

"Dude, you're literally bleeding all over the place! We need to get you to hospital or something!" Sabito replied, with Giyu just shakes his head.

"I can patch myself up, stitching it all up is easy." Giyu replies, Sabito just sighing at his friend's stubborn self. Their back and forth would go on until Makomo who had enough time waiting went over to see the two men.

"Sabito! Giyu! What the hell happened here?!" Makomo would screech, immediately seeing the mess around the area and the mess that Giyu was.

"Well as you can see with the two criminals tied up and the fact that this idiot has a knife in his back says a lot! The idiot didn't even think about calling for help!" Sabito replies, trying to find some disinfectant for Giyu who just shrugs.

"I can see that Sabito! What do we do with Giyu now!?" Makomo would argue, looking over at Giyu who somehow stayed call in his current situation.

"You know, considering I'm the hurt one here, I should get a say if I'm an idiot for helping, that and if I want to go to a hospital or I stitch myself up?" Giyu speaks, while the two look at him and simultaneously reply to him "Not now!".

"Damn, tough crowd. You still do realize I'm still bleeding out here right?" Giyu replies, looking at the couple. Before the cashier who has been watching them would suggest something to them.

"Umm.. I can help you patch him up and clean his wounds, please don't hesitate to take anything you need. We have bandages and some alcohol or betadine if you need it." The cashier speaks, looking at the three.

The couple accepted it before Giyu could go and object the given offer, considering that he still wants to stitch himself up all by himself and with no one's help.

Even so the three would dedicate their time trying to patch Giyu up, with a lot of resistance from the man himself.

"I told you guys I can do it myself, you might miss some stitching and my gash over at my leg." Giyu speaks, as they would go over his injuries. His numerous scars bare for the three to see.

"They wouldn't make any difference with how much scars you have, seriously dude what the hell happened with you all these years you've been gone?" Sabito asks, cleaning his hand.

"A lot of stuff, then again you have seen Sanemi right?" Giyu replies, looking over at Sabito.

"We know Giyu, but this is serious. We know you're reckless, but this much?" Makomo replies, bandaging the stab wound in his back.

"Again, I'm totally fine. It doesn't even hurt." Giyu replies, sighing as the cashier pours alcohol over his leg gash.

"What they said mister, you're pretty torn up and beaten for a normal guy. I thought you were a military man yourself, but with what they told I assume you aren't." She would speak, bringing more bandages and medical supplies.

"I know, I've been collecting these for a while now. Gunshots, bruises that couldn't heal, stabbing the whole shabinga." Giyu speaks, taking a can of beer from one of the smaller fridges beside him.

"And he's all nonchalant with it, it's like he has no pain receptors." Sabito remarks, now covering his hand with clean gauze.

"Yeah, by the way we haven't asked your name yet. And sorry for trashing the place, on this idiot's behalf of course." Makomo replies, before asking the woman and apologizing.

"No no, it's perfectly fine! He didn't do anything to harm my business, in fact he helped. If he didn't intervene I would've already been in a morgue and this place more ransacked that what it looks right now. And for my name, it's Iori Renko" She replies, grateful for Giyu's help as the said man just raised his drink before drinking from it.

"Well Iori, you're welcome but thank you for letting us use some of your products to patch Giyu up, can we do anything else?" Makomo replied, looking over at the woman who just shook her head.

"No, it's fine as I've said! Mr. Giyu here has done enough already, and I'm sure the cops are already on their way here, I also called my family after I informed the authorities so it's all good." She replies, sweetly and reassuringly.

"Well, call us if you need anything. Anything at all, I'm Makomo by the way, this idiot on the floor bleeding is Giyu Tomioka and that's Sabito my partner." Makomo introduces themselves, looking at the woman.

"Well it's Urokodaki, our last name is Urokodaki. Both of us, and no it's not that we're related we were just adopted by the same gramps. So we took his last name considering we are orphans." Sabito adds, with Iori nodding.

"I understand, I'm orphaned too. My current family is my 12th from all the years I've been alive, and well they're the best..." Iori replies, looking at the two.

She would apologize for suddenly bringing this up, but the pair would say it's fine. Giyu on the other hand just takes another beer and some Slim Jims.

"And don't worry about those two, I made sure I knocked them out for 2 hours, probably more than enough time to make sure the police arrive here." Giyu speaks, eating a Slim Jim before drinking from the can.

Again, the woman thanks him again for his deed. With Giyu dismissing her and telling her that it was the right thing to do.

The three chat for a while before Giyu decided to stand up, stretchi6as if nothing even happened to him.

This amazed the three, but Makomo and Sabito already expected such from the depressed man.

"Well, it's time for us to go. We'll be going now Renko!" Giyu would speak, still walking towards the car as if there wasn't any robbery whatsoever.

Makomo stops him on his tracks, grabbing his shirt before he can go any further than he is before he is scold by the woman.

"Giyu, you forgetting something other than thanking her?" Makomo implies, looking over at the man questioningly.

Giyu looks at her confused, before Sabito nudges him and tells him about the things he just consumed. This made Giyu realize what he did, immediately grabbing the wallet from his back pocket.

"Oh right, sorry about that. Here, thanks for helping my friends patch me up and for putting up with me just taking beers and your Slim Jims." He hands her enough money to pay for everything, even grabbing a one of his backup checks to pay for the damage.

Makomo just wanted him to pay for the drinks he had and those sticks of meat, but that was a surprise for even her. Because knowing Giyu, he's actually rich from having multiple passive incomes.

"Oh my god, this is... Quite a lot of money... I can't accept this..." Iori speaks in awe, before trying her best to return the money to him.

"Yes you can, don't think of it as a gift since it's just me paying my debt for... Well thrashing your place." Giyu replies, pushing it back to her.

This exchange would go on for a few more seconds, before Iori finally accepts it... Reluctant but accepting it either way.

"Now that that's settled, we really do need to get to Rengoku's party. We're already a few minutes late from all of these shenanigans." Sabito speaks, before this would make Iori perk up from their statement.

"Wait did you guys say Rengoku? Kyoujiro Rengoku?" Iori speaks, looking at the trio who nod.

"Why? Do you know him?" Makomo asks, looking at her a bit surprised.

"Other than him being my husband-to-be? Yeah, I know him quite well!" Iori smiles, making the three look at her with surprise.

"Wait you're going to be married to Rengoku?!" "Rengoku's going to get married?!" Makomo and Sabito would exclaim simultaneously, respectively as Iori nods from their statement.

"Huh, so that's why the ring looked familiar. You're one lucky girl Renko, Rengoku is one of the nicest and most kind-hearted people I know of. He's like Sabito here, he's loud but unlike this guy he has his bad hearing. Sabito is always loud, it's like his entire persona." Giyu would speak, getting a punch from Sabito.

This made Iori giggle, but nod at the same time. She already liked his friends, considering that they were polite and Giyu helped the shit out of her.

"Well, I guess we'll meet there? I'll wait for the cops to arrive, I'll just tell Kyojuro about this and why I'm running late." Iori would suggest, before Giyu offered for them to wait alongside her.

This suggestion was turned down by Iori saying they already have done enough for her and that she's grateful for their help, and Giyu paying for her repairs.

And so they bid farewell to her, heading straight to the Rengoku household. They hoped that the kids didn't really get bored with them being gone for a long time.

The couple also hoped that Shinobu was already there, so she can properly stitch up this dumbass friend of theirs.

"So can I drive?" Giyu suggests, with the pair immediately saying no. Which made Giyu shrug, and let them. Well at least he can ride shotgun, they decided over that since Makomo also wanted to watch over the kids.

"Why were you gone for so long, and when did you change your clothes?" Iako asked, looking over at Giyu who just shrugs.

"I was sweaty, forgot to bring an extra shirt so I went and find one over the store." Giyu nonchalantly replies, with Iako eyeing him but not pressing any further.

And so the travel to the Rengoku family household, finishing Giyu's side quest for the day. He also bought some extra things for their travels, three packs of beer to be exact. They also bought some chips, jerky and an ice box filled with ice.

What's gonna happen? Who knows! All I know is I'm damn tired as fuck.

Timeskip....

Here we are at the Rengoku household, in front of the house where w can already see numerous parked cars, Giyu guessed that most of the group are already here.

Giyu would just yawn and stretch after the ride, before he grabs the cooler and the things they brought, not forgetting the backpack of his. We also see Sabito doing this but with his families things.

The house was marvelous, looks like the estate didn't change that much even after all these years. Giyu remembers going to Rengoku's estate, when they were assigned to a mission all those demon slaying years ago.

The old vase was still outside the doorstep, same architecture, and the Rengokus still live there! It's like nothing changed, but Giyu definitely liked it anyways.

As they knock the door, they are greated by Kyoujuro's vibrant self. The man already greeting them even before they can react, usual Rengoku hospitality.

"Welcome friends! Running a bit late aren't we?" He would speak in his usual elevated tone, with them nodding.

"Yeah, sorry Kyoujuro. We ran into a few wrong turns, and a few stops along the way." Makomo replies, while Rengoku just smiles.

"It's fine dear friend Makomo! Let's go in, the others are already inside!" Rengoku replies, helping Giyu with the things they brought over.

The inside was amazing, very clean. Giyu approves of this home 10000%, he loves a clean house.

Rengoku leads them towards the backyard, Giyu already smelling something spicy in the air. Spicy enough that Sabito and his family start to cough, while Iako just covers her nose.

Giyu just thinks about what spice-filled thing did Rengoku cook again, either way he's gonna do his best to steer away from it. That eat something else, like roasted beef.

"Hey! Glad you guys can make it!" Kanae would greet them, Hana also waving her small baby hand.

"Hey Kanae! How's the little Hana!" Makomo would approach the two, also carrying Yukira who was asleep.

"Aww is this Yukira... Look Hana." Kanae coos, with Hana also following her mother.

While the two women would go over the things they've experienced, we already see Sabito joining the men who were already drinking beers as they would cook the food.

Giyu just sighs, but it was natural in a place like this. He should probably find somewhere to sit, and somewhere to put the food they bought.

Luckily for him, there was a free table there. Oooohhh are those breadsticks?! I need me some of that, and is that a whole icebox of goddarn blueberry punch?!

Anyways before I go off topic, we already see Giyu setting up a place for himself. He'd eventually grab a plate for himself. Well he was about to when Shinobu approached him. This is gonna be an awkward interaction...

"Giyu, hey. Nice to see you again, how are you?" The woman asks, with him only smiling at her.

"Hey, I'm fine as usual." He'd reply, before Shinobu looks at him quizically.

"Really? You, Giyu Tomioka?" She jokes, with Giyu again just smiling.

"Hey, I'm reckless not stupid." He'd reply, before Shinobu retorts.

"Typical Giyu things then?" Shinobu would retort, with Giyu just nodding.

What could happen next in this conversation? Who goddamn knows! All I know is I updated again! Fuck me!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A/N- So yeah, I updated after like 3 months. YEEEEYYYYY
