UEEEEYAHHHH...!!! WHAT KIND OF PLACE IS THIS? FILLED WITH THESE DARK SPIRITS.. AND THEIR BLOODY MAMRIES AND SEX TRUCK!!
Look, I'm gonna find the specter that is responsible for this and send him back home to hell! NOBODY DESERVES TO BE CURSED HERE!!! ESPECIALLY YOU, GONPACHIROU!!!
[Except Tanjiro just puts a hand to his mouth and laughs behind it quietly for a moment before he doubles forward and just kind of loses his shit, dissolving into a complete fit of boyish laughter.]
This one's not a curse, silly!! I-it's just... like a joke, you send it to people you think are sexy. [Oh wow he suddenly got really red in the face. At least he's still chuckling??]
For one, I think it has a lot to do with your sense of touch being super high. You know how you can tell where people are looking? That probably makes it a lot worse...
[He waves a hand, face turning vaguely pink.] Anyway, the point I'm trying to make, is do you remember what I told you, about your face?
Attractive, Inosuke. Thin, fair-skinned and attractive. [He may never look him in the eye again. Why was that so much easier to say the first time? Oh right, because he hadn't actually caught the gay yet.]
[His hands are just permanently glued to his face at this juncture.]
Attractive means you are easy on the eyes. You're pretty, you're handsome, you attract the attention of others. Sexy..., is not mutually exclusive, most people who are considered sexy are considered attractive I did not start this message planning to play dictionary even a little bit, but the point is you have are attractive and I'm attracted to you.
[A beat, and he realizes he just said that, and turns to staring at his hands in abject horror. It's not like it's news, really, but. He sure did just say that.]
[ Inosuke cocks his head to a shoulder as Tanjiro explains. He seriously doesn't understand why this guy has such a hard time spitting things out sometimes. Just get on with it, Gonpachiro! ]
What you're saying is.. you pay attention to me a lot..?
[There's something really strange about being chided by Inosuke, but Tanjiro takes his figurative licks, staring at the backs of his hands with his shoulders still bunched up all around his ears.]
What's that, [His tone is careful-- if he knows Inosuke, he's going to suggest something ridiculous like fighting. But he's also starting to wonder if he really knows Inosuke at all.]
I think.. you're really nervous 'cause you wanna mate with me like we talked about, but we haven't done it yet! So I think if we do it, you'll stop actin' all funny!
[If tact were a brick, you could hurl it at Hashibira Inosuke and knock him unconscious with it and he still wouldn't learn how to use it, Tanjiro thinks. The worst of it is he's really not wrong, just.. too bold to be embarrassed by what he's saying.]
[Tanjiro turns approximately the color of an overripe tomato, and proceeds to deflate like a balloon into his own palms, shaking his head.]
Inosukeeee, you can't just say things like that, goodness. I mean you're probably right, but lower your voice...?

Inosuke, do you remember when we first met, and Zenitsu was making a big deal out of your face?

What does sexy mean? I'm guessing it has to do with sex. Maybe.. I look like a good person to have sex with..!
