He'd not visited her. He simply was more present in the village, that's all.

It's not like he sought her out.

No. Not at all. She just happened to be the only adult competent of holding proper conversations with.

It's not like he was now standing in her doorway watching her gather her and the boy's washings.

"Look, I know why you've been around so much lately," she sighed. "He's a good kid. You should know that well enough," she lifted the basket.

"She is free to choose whom she spends -"

"Yeah, yeah, Papamaru," she smiled. "Rin really likes him, you know." While his features did not change, she saw the shift in his iridescent gaze. "Don't worry, I'll watch them while you're not around," her eyes smiled at him. "And if he does anything to hurt her, I'm sure Sango will even help teach her baby brother how a lady should be treated," she giggled softly.

He stared at her, "I see you have not fully integrated into wearing proper-"

"No," she scolded, "Don't you dare say something about my thermal dress! It's cold, and a kimono does not cut it in wintertime. I don't care about your 'proper' yadayada. It's not like I've access to- "

Before he registered the thought, he spoke, "Ask this one."

A nervous laugh escapes her after a moment, "No, that's a bit much."

He followed behind her to the river bed, the silence was heavy even for nighttime.

He grumbled in his thoughts, 'Let me be as clear as possible.' His fingers caught gently catching the obsidian strands, freezing her in her tracks. Her startled unblinking gaze slowly meeting his.

After a pregnant pause, she finally spoke nervously, "Do I stink?"

This was proving more difficult than he'd thought it would be...

Okay so.... don't be mad...

But this definitely uncensored can't be on TumblTown- so you'll just have to have this for now until I figure out what to do with it... it's on my Patreon. Cropped for obvious safety reasons of not getting me banned! (Still remembering I was flagged for a non-nude bunny suit, rude)

Woo! And a ficlet for pizzazz!!! 🙃 Now I'm going to do some dishes and make dinner... and clean up the disaster that my adhd caused me to need to organize screws, nails, bolts, the spinny things, etc... 😅

Eh?

He'd never felt such an overwhelming feeling. He was so unsure of himself, so unlike the great Sesshomaru. He didn't exactly understand human courting. This was unknown territory.

He watched her push her sleeves up to her elbows, her attention on the laundry.

A slight tug on her sleeve gave her pause. Her azure gaze meeting a normally certain uncertainty. "Sesshomaru," she spoke about to ask if he was alright, stopping. She didn't want him to assume she thought he was weak. Would he take it that way?

Seeing her attention was not his, he finally spoke, "This one will come for you in three days' time."

"Eh?"

"At sunset," he spoke.

Before she could process his words, she joked lightheartedly, "Like a date?" As soon as the words left her mouth, she snapped her mouth shut, "Oh, um. Just kid-"

"Yes," he spoke far too sure of himself.

Eh...?!?

Hahahahaha, I spent a good 10 minutes just laughing at tiny lips and a pout because I am mature.

Ah yes, wonderful awful sketchy sketch 🤣
