[idontblushsrry]

I'm amazed that someone's actually willing writing for Inuyasha ;o Those Kouga headcanons got me like 🤤 I loved them. Would you write nsfw Relationship Headcanons for Bankotsu's (gosh I'm so in love with that man, Fangirl Nr 1 right over here 😍) and Kouga with their S/O , please? Hope you're having a good day/night. Keep up your amazing work. Many thanks and best regards Thalia 🙋‍♀️

A/N: I’m glad you liked the Koga headcanons lol, he’s really like the perfect man tbh like idk what Kagome was thinking. And ofc, I love the og show sm. I agree w you though, like Bankotsu is underrated for as fine as he is. I set these in the feudal era but if you want some modern day hcs, lmk

Koga

Koga is a dedicated lover

This transfers over to the bedroom as well

He’ll let you do whatever you want, he is yours after all, say the word and it’s yours

In exchange though, he wants you to be loud as all hell

He gauges his performance based on how loud you are and to be honest, if the entire forest doesn’t know you and him are fucking, he’s doing something wrong

Speaking of forests, you’re pretty much only going to be having forest sex

Especially when he has the jewel shards in his legs like there’s not really anywhere else for yall to go without running into human settlements

Also Koga is way more rough with you if you’re a demon, like cracking tree trunks, shaking the ground, etc. he just goes crazy

Mans is not opposed to quickies

Especially back at home, the two of you basically have to get in as much as possible before the other wolves come back

As for positions, Koga doesn’t mind what positions you get into

The only time he’ll be picky about it is when he’s in rut

At which point, he’s mounting you and breeding you like a bitch before you even know what’s happening

During his rut, he gets a little feral and he usually stays away from you just so that you don’t get hurt or anything, but the first time you agree to help him with his rut, he’s kind of over the moon

Overall, very service top until he gets into heat at which point, he’s thinking solely about pressing you down and drilling his cum into you

Bankotsu

Your honor I’m a freak bitch

No but seriously, Bankotsu is a certified freak

Like whatever you wanna do he’s down for that and more

Bankotsu’s also really possessive and jealous

So if he sees you with someone that he thinks is trying to get with you, he has no problem slaughtering them and then fucking you to remind you who you belong to

Yea he’s gonna ruin you

Bankotsu also has a “slight” corruption kink

He really has a thing for turning you from a law-abiding morally upstanding citizen to someone who’s ok with or even willing to murder

Especially if you were a virgin when you both met, he’s already thinking of all the ways he can ruin you

Speaking of which, he loves cumming all over your body and leaving you covered in hickies and bruises in the shape of his handprints

Literally covering you in a way that says ‘Bankotsu was here’

Also has a thing for dumbification

He finds it amusing, especially if you had an attitude before hand

Pounding into you like “Aww look at my dumb little slut, where’s that attitude you had earlier?”

He loves watching you go from petty to begging for cock like it’s the only thing you know how to do

Also the man loves to throw you around

Like he’s strong asl, one of his favorite things to do is lift you over his shoulder and carry you away so you can fuck

He also likes when you ride him and you get tired, at which point he’ll just lift you up by your thighs and start pounding into you 2x as fast

Bankotsu is very rough as well so aftercare with him mostly consists of him carrying you to the nearest river/pool of water and rinsing you off

Overall, the man is a top through and through and it brings him no greater pleasure than to watch you fall apart on his dick

Anon asked:  Hello! May I please request sfw and NSFW headcanons for bankotsu and suikotsu?

｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆　　 ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆

Hello anon and thank you for requesting with us! I hope you like this, and I hope you keep supporting us~!

｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆　　 ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆

ＳＦＷ

With Bankotsu, he would be a very loyal and compassionate lover

Even though he is a skilled mercenary that gets off on killing people

But when it comes to the person that he loves, he is solely devoted to that one person until the very end, as his loyalty is

He would be fiercely protective of you, making sure that when he had a job to do, you were nowhere near it, just in case

He is also very possessive, not wanting anybody else to take you in or tough inappropriately

Bankotsu is smart and doesn’t underestimate his enemies nor his allies, and he probably knows that you could takes care of yourself, but he just doesn’t want to risk it

Even if his own life is in danger, he will do anything in his power to make sure that you are okay, and free to live.

You are a big part of his life and his family, so he will be fiercely loyal, as said before

If he were to see a man just to flirt with you, and he sees that you are uncomfortable with said man, he will take his sword and decapitate him without a second thought

He saw you uncomfortable, and he knew he had to deal with the vermin sooner rather than later

If you were to be sick, he would definitely take care of you

like would not leave your side until you felt fully better

ＮＳＦＷ

Bankotsu could be a gentle lover and rough lover depending on his mood

but you aren’t complaining because he treat you right in bed though so, it’s a win win situation in the end

He would like biting a lot only because of the whimpers of pain and pleasure, which turns him on immensely

Like he loves when you scream

either his name or just screaming in general

because to him that means that you are really feelings, and you he doing a good job

He likes to be deep inside you, skin touching as you cry into his chest

loves it when you cry, and he’ll lick the droplets away, chuckling a bit then kiss you apologetically

When he goes rough, he goes rough bro

like there would be so much strength he’d want to put in, so he can feel that release

but he’ll do it in just a way where you are feeling it too, that taste of pure oblivion, where you feel like you might blackout because he’s slamming so hard into you

But towards the end he will be slow and gentle as he rides out his orgams with you, kiss your back and hold you tight against him as he groans out in pleasure

ＳＦＷ

This man would be one of the most gentle lovers ever

he would be sweet and kind

always wanting to heals you wounds from physical to emotional

he wants to always make sure that you the best you can possibly be

he wants to make sure that you are happy and healthy and always smiling for him

with him

will always give you gifts that are mostly herbs that would help with, say, the common cold or headache

he is very thoughtful and attentive when it comes to you

of course, it’s the same when it comes to his patients but more so with you

since you are his lover and all

when you guys sleep together, he will always need to be the big spoon

he’ll always want you in his arms so he knows that you will never leave him

and when you are in his arms, it helps him with sleeping better, and god only knows how much sleep he loses

Dates would consist of him teaching you different types of herbs, ones that would harm enemies and ones that would be useful for allies

He would be the type help you with anything from dinner to practicing fighting

because in this are, you can never be too careful

ＮＳＦＷ

Like he is out in the world he is just as gentles in bed

he would pepper kisses around your face, down your neck and collarbone

he wouldn’t want to bite like his brother would, no would want to lick you everywhere

he would want to taste every inch of you, and savor it on his tongue

he’s weirdly sentimental like that

When having sex, Suikotsu will be slow and deep, holding in a vice

You might think you’ll choke, but he’ll make sure you won’t, because he wants this to pleasurable for you too

he will use shallow thrust that would keep both of you connected until the very end

Suikotsu is the type of lover that will want to see your face and watch as it twists in pleasure 

he’ll kiss you the whole time, from lips to cheeks to breasts

simply everywhere

He doesn’t know if he can hold back towards the end, but he really tries, because he doesn’t want to hurt you

but he does get faster, with hard thrusts, in and out

until he cum inside of you, grunting while you are moaning out his name

He’ll kiss you more and then help clean you up

then he would scoop you up in his arms ad fell asleep quickly

[clown-cult]

I got to thinking about Inuyasha’s male cast and their beautiful hair and started to wonder… “how much of the appeal of these guys is just the hair?” So, for the amusement of no one but myself, here’s how I think the lads would fare in regards to the simping department if they had short hair instead. (Not included: Shippo and Kohaku bc they are children).

Inuyasha: Inuyasha would be okay I think. The dog ears definitely help but at the same time, a lot of this guy’s appeal is his personality so he’d still be attractive, he’d just look more like the local angry delinquent instead of a feral teenager you found under a bush.

Miroku: Miroku already has short hair comparatively speaking and he does just fine. As we saw briefly in the sequel that won’t be named, Miroku with long hair has too much power. He’s holding himself back for the good of the world.

Koga: This is a harder one cuz I can’t imagine Koga with his hair down, let alone with it short, but again I think he’d still be hot. Koga already has a lot going for him like being buff, tanned and having bright blue eyes. He’d probably be less of the local delinquent like Inuyasha and more the leader of the local biker gang.

Sesshomaru: This one’s gonna get me some hate but a lot of Sesshomaru’s appeal is his hair. All the art I’ve seen with it short and he automatically turns into just some dude. This man without the long hair and elaborate armour would get mistaken for an accountant who may or may not also be a serial killer.

Naraku: Naraku has a lot working in his favour. Black hair and red eyes is a combination that works extremely well in anime, (see Alucard, Sebastian Michaelis, Vincent Valentine, any of the Uchihas and Muzan Kibutsuji) and on top that, Naraku is pretty tall and has #CurlyHairSupremacy privilege so yeah, he’d definitely still be appealing. May also look like Michael Jackson, take that however you wish.

Byakuya: Byakuya is very obviously a gay man and if you take the long hair away, it’s just going to make him look even more like a twink. I’m not saying that’s a bad thing, I’m just pointing out the obvious.

Bankotsu: Bankotsu is fine as hell and he’s gonna stay that way regardless of what his hair is doing. He’s got the same benefit of swagger that Inuyasha and Koga have which means he could still pull it off even if he looked different.

Jakotsu: Everything I said previously about Byakuya? Well it’s basically the same principle here and again, not a bad thing, just stating the obvious. Ironically these pretty boys having long pretty hair saves them from full twink status.

Bonus!

Toga: Toga is a difficult one. Ultimately I think he’d be somewhere between inuyasha and Sesshomaru with enough of a strong design and personality to still be appealing…but not as appealing as he was before.

Kirinmaru: Kirinmaru, like Naraku, is going to do pretty well with short hair bc he has a complimentary colour scheme of red hair and green eyes, is tall and again has the much-coveted #CurlyHairSupremacy.

I may have to do a post like this for the ladies yet.

This translation is split into two as the sections are completely separate.

Part 1: Remaining Mysteries Roundup!

Part 2: Rumic Question, Part 2!!

Rumic Question Part 2!!

“Hanyō no Yashahime” The Second Chapter commemoration project!! We selected 20 questions regarding “Inuyasha” that our readers submitted via the web and had Takahashi Rumiko-sensei answer them!!

Q. I’m sure Bankotsu is the strongest within the Band of Seven but, in order, how strong are the other 6? Also, if possible, I would love to know their ages!

Bankotsu (17) is the strongest; Kyōtsu (30) and Mukotsu (33) died early on, so they’re weak. Renkotsu (24) is a little smarter than everyone else so he’s the second strongest. Ginkotsu (22) is mostly a weapon so he’s third. In terms of the difference in weapon range between Jakotsu (20) and Suikotsu (26), Jakotsu wins. How is that for order? I just picked whatever for each of their ages just now so I if get asked this again some years later, it will probably be different. Please excuse me when that happens.

Q. I would like to know how Inuyasha felt as he waited in front of the well during the 3 years Kagome was gone.

He was probably sitting there like a faithful dog.

Q. Of Inuyasha’s moves, which one is your favorite?

The first one, “Wind Scar”, is Tessaiga’s base form so I like it.

Q. “Inuyasha” is the treasure of my youth…! I’m extremely happy to have the chance to ask a question. What I would like to ask is regarding Byakuya of the Mirage! I think among Naraku’s incarnations, he was the only one who stayed loyal until the end, so was there something that made him different from the other incarnations?

Byakuya’s mission was to “Cut Kagome” and surprisingly, I imagine that may have been his reason for living.

Q. I’ve continued to read Rumic works for a long time! Are the ghosts (ayakashi) in “MAO” and the demons in “Inuyasha” completely different?

Many of them share the same design but the worlds are different, so please know that they are different individuals.

Q. I was rooting for Miroku and Sango, so I was happy that they became a married couple at the end! I’m sure now Miroku considers Sango his most precious person, but after getting married, did his philandering (womanizing problem) get cured? I’m curious!

To start, Miroku didn’t know when he was going to die, so I think he instinctively thought that he had to leave behind descendants and thus called out to various women. Now that his wind tunnel is gone, it’s only natural that Sango is his most beloved woman. However, since he lived like that, he can interact with women naturally. Also, he has no choice but to abide by “What is deemed cheating” by Sango.

Q. Please tell us what Inuyasha’s favorite ninja food (modern era food) is!

I’d have to say cup miso ramen. Miso was already around during Inuyasha’s time, so it’s possible there’s a sense of security and familiarity.

Q. Greetings! I really like “Inuyasha” and in particular, Kikyō is forever my ideal woman! If it’s alright, I would like to know the details of how Kikyō became a priestess! Kaede is also a priestess, so has their family been priestesses for generations?

I think she most likely became a priestess due to being spiritually gifted and from the expectations of those around her. I don’t know about her family lineage though.

Q. In terms of Rin’s circumstances, I thought it would be no surprise if she was really afraid of humans or human villages, but when she was entrusted to Kaede’s village, was she able to easily accept this?

Rin went through various hardships in her birth village, but I imagine she wasn’t afraid of all humans. Furthermore, before the decisive battle with Naraku, she was already being cared for at Kaede’s house, so I think she got used to it. Despite continuing to be left in Kaede’s care afterwards, Sesshōmaru would come to visit her, so I think she surprisingly enjoyed living there.

Q. During serialization, I was so anxious about what would happen to Kohaku every time… I was glad that he was saved in the end. In the final chapter, I believe he was exterminating demons while training, but was he able to become stronger than Sango in the very end? Also, does he have a good relationship with Miroku?

As he got older, it’s possible that he became stronger than Sango in terms of stamina and brute strength, but he most likely won’t be equal to her due to the respect he has for her. Sango is also improving her techniques and knowledge so there’s a possibility she won’t lose anytime soon. Regarding Miroku, I imagine he truly cares for him as “The man who made elder sister happy”.

Q. It’s been roughly 10 years since I became an Inuyasha fan which surprises me… I’ve been engrossed in Inuyasha every day for 10 years (laughs). I have a question, is there a reason behind Tessaiga’s raggedy look in its normal state, everyday state? I would certainly love to hear it.

It made its first appearance as a rusty sword, so to make Tessaiga recognizable just by looking at it, I stuck with the rustiness. It will transform anyway when polished. In terms of manga, it’s easy to recognize is the reason.

Q. The Dog General and Sesshōmaru are both the armed fighting type, but is Gobodōsama (the lady mother) also strong as a demon?

I don’t think she would engage in battle herself. She seems like the type who would have tools with demonic strength and a lot of servants. But if she were to get serious, she seems like she would be powerful. Leaning more towards spells.

Q. During the fight with Naraku, the story about how Sango tried to sacrifice Rin in order to save Miroku left an impression on me. When I thought about Sango’s mental state, my chest hurt. I think Sesshōmaru forgave Sango in the end, but was there any back and forth after the final battle?

I think Sesshōmaru forgave Sango and understood her resolve the moment she gave her gas mask to Rin within Naraku’s miasma filled body. Even if Sango tried to apologize again after the battle, I think Sesshōmaru would have already left.

Q. I love time travelling things and I thought it was really fun how a well was the key to that. Why did you choose a well as the item to cross through time?

I thought about entering a building or a cave, but it was too much planning to come up with a time or reason to walk into such things, so I thought vertical travel was the speediest as her home is a shrine and there’s an old well. Hence, I chose a well.

Q. Jaken’s questionable reliability and slightly cowardly character is very endearing and good isn’t it. He gets beaten up quite a bit by various people, but how strong is he as a demon? Also, what kind of demon is he?

Jaken’s visual image was “a hell preta”. Additionally, by having him wear a *Kariginu, my intention was for him to have a middle management feel. I don’t think he’s very strong.

* Informal clothes worn by nobility from the Heian period onwards

Q. I love Hitomi Kagewaki’s appearance! He’s very handsome! Did Naraku also like it? Please treat me well!

Thank you. Hitomi Kagewaki was the young lord of a castle, so I think he (Naraku) found him to be an excellent thing to possess. He privately viewed the castle and would live in it if he liked it, so he probably thought “I choose this”.

Q. I like the highly individualistic naming sense of Naraku’s incarnations. Was Naraku the one who named them?

It doesn’t seem like they would introduce themselves when they’re born, so I think Naraku named them based on their abilities.

Q. Hello Rumiko-sensei. Thank you so much for doing this wonderful project! In terms of my question, it is regarding Sango’s demon slayer attire. Throughout the story, chains and slayer medicines were depicted as being stored within shoulder and elbow pads many times. Are there other items stored within them? I would be happy if you could answer this. Please treat me well.

Not really, there would probably be things antidotes or tough threads inside.

Q. All sorts of demons made an appearance but is there a demon that you particularly like sensei? My favorites are Princess Abi and Hiten since they’re cool!

(I like demons) like Yura of the Demon Hair, Hiten and Monten, and Rouyakan. In addition, I like doodle type demons like the catfish demon who was the master of the lake. I also like cute types like the 3 young fox demons that were in a group during the official fox demon magic certification exam.

Q. Inuyasha is very attuned to inferring Kagome and Kikyō’s scents but what do the two of them smell like? Are their scents similar?

Apparently, dogs can differentiate friend or foe through “scent”, so their (Kagome and Kikyō) scent is tranquil enough to be acknowledged as an ally and has a sense of security to it. More specifically… I’ll leave it at something like clean sheets that have been dried in the sun or a sweet flower.

Written for InuKagFluffWeek2022 @inukagfluffweek

Day 7: Family Time

Summary: Inuyasha never imagined he'd find a place to call home until Kagome gave him a place to belong to.

Rating: G | Words: 543

Read on AO3

I DID IT!!! This is the very first event in which I've participated every single day!!! Woo!!!

First and foremost, I would like to thank @inukagfluffweek for all of their hard work and dedication to running this event and giving us yet another opportunity to demonstrate our profound love for InuKag <3

Secondly, I want to thank everyone that has read, kudoed, commented on, bookmarked, and shared my stories on AO3 and on Tumblr, as well. As a baby writer, it means the world to me that people would take the time to read, enjoy, and provide feedback on my stories. Yes, I'm giving a speech. Sue me. I have seen all of your wonderful comments, and I promise to respond to each and every one because they mean everything to me and keep me going and wanting to improve! Thank you! Thank you! Ok, I'm off to cry now!

Preview:

The first time Inuyasha entered Kagome's home he'd been an intruder. He'd barged into her dining room and ripped her away from the table to take her back to the Feudal Era while her family looked on in awe.

Today he'd been invited to sit at that very table as a guest.

Written for @inu-spiration (Reverse Solstice Bang 2022)

I had the absolute pleasure of being paired with the incredibly talented @valuvi! Her beautiful art piece, which you can view here, inspired so many beautiful ideas and scenes that went into the making of this story.

Please make sure to go and give her artwork lots and lots of love because it's so amazing and will take your breath away!

B-Side (Read on AO3)

Summary: Inuyasha is a photographer assigned to cover a local music festival. When one of the performers sings a song written by his mother, a song only the two of them could possibly know, his world is turned upside down. Inuyasha may have to come to terms with the fact that his mother kept a secret that she took to the grave. A Modern AU. Pairing: InuKag. Rated T (for language)

Excuse me, I'm still not over how sweet and tender this scene is:

From Kagome using her scarf to wipe the sweat from his forehead...

To Inuyasha being touched by Kagome crying for him because she thought he might die and asking to lie on her lap...

Hakudoshi no

Inuyasha BF Scenario: When he's being “too friendly” with another girl & he realizes that you're jealous/upset

Inuyasha: he is too stubborn to apologize immediately so he starts listing times where you have been friendly with other males (he never forgets anything) and tells you how he kept his jealousy under control (even though he actually didn’t because he’d make it obvious by trying to fight them over you) but later apologizes after a few days.

Miroku: apologizes immediately.

Koga: gets mad at himself for being too careless, apologizes to you and makes love to you to show you that he loves you and no other female will ever get that from him.

Sesshomaru: kills the girl who made you jealous/unintentionally started commotion in your relationship.

Kohaku: is confused and tells you that he’s sorry and that he didn’t know that he was upsetting you.

Naraku: kills the girl that made you jealous then makes love to you right after, to show his devotion to you.

Bankotsu: he laughs and tells you that it’s just his personality and he can’t help the fact that it made you jealous. He doesn’t take it serious at first. Then after a few days, he realizes that he messed up and apologizes to you, showers you with gifts and takes you on an adventure to make it up to you.

Hakudoshi: he is turned on by the darkness in your heart and examines your heart/behavior more closely.

[jakotsu-stan-blog]

I know I’ve probably mentioned but like the whole idea of like what if the band of seven had ended up betraying Naraku and joining up with team Inuyasha but I’m doing so again bc it’s hilarious

Like no one on team Inuyasha would be a big fan of this considering it’s these bunch of mass murderers who have nearly killed them more than once and are kinda morally reprehensible but also like what are they gonna do. They need help. These are capable fuckers. It would just be the most uneasy alliance in the funniest way!! Like pls imagine

Bankotsu: what if we just kill them

*chorus of no’s*

Bankotsu: you guys are literally no fun

Jakotsu, supportively: I thought it was a good idea

[clearwillow]

Regarding Pretend You’re Mine and Hired Help, I know InuKag is endgame but how will Inuyasha know he’s not a rebound after she was ready to marry Bankotsu? We all know what’s going on in each other’s head but daaaamnnn, Inuyasha’s got to watch this trainwreck so I can’t imagine he’ll be very logical in the fiery aftermath

Okay. So. Gonna try to answer this and give an answer that won't spoil the last three parts of this fic, so bear with lol

They're both filled with what they think is one sided. Obviously if the future-set oneshots are any indication this isn't the case, and they've reached an understanding.

What I can't say is when this understanding happens. Cause when it happens, it hits hard. But - and I might be pushing it saying this - what they feel is intense, so for Inuyasha at least, I don't think "rebound" is a thought that crosses his mind. Not very logical is a good way of putting it, though. And it's InuKag, so logical is debatable with these two on anything.

@sacredwarrior88 asked:  Headcanons for Bankotsu, Suikotsu, and Roy Mustang in the modern world?

｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆　　 ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆

Hello again and thank you for requesting with us! I hope you enjoy these headcanons!

>Admin 𝕋

｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆　　 ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆

In the modern world, where there are no alchemists and super powers, I see Roy as a police officer.

Or maybe in the army, some type of position where he might be able to look after people

Because likes being a type of protector like that

He would definitely be the chief of the establishment

He will have younger men and women looking up to him like he is someone kind of idol

Now, if he deserves such praise and idol worship is yet to be determined

he may amazing as a cop or something along those lines, he will still be a womanizer

always telling the girls they are doing a good job, and giving them more attention than his other peers

Of course, he will be scolded, but that doesn’t mean he is going to stop

He would be a coach of a little league team, i feel

something he would do in his pastime when he isn’t working

He’ll being teaching kids how to play soccer or something

Roy, I feel, loves kids, wants to protect them, he wants to coach them in sports and in life, so they know what they are in for.

Roy would wear fashionable clothing and would definitely be the type to wear a knock off rollex, so people thinks he has money, when in reality he is struggling

Confident, smug, arrogant, he would be all of these things, even in the modern world.

»»——⍟——««

Bankotsu in the modern world would be a spoiled rich kid everybody wants to kids I swear to god

He’s charismatic, rich, arrogant, smug, people love him for his money, but hate him for his confidence

Would drive a fuckin jaguar because why not, he can, he has the money for it

He would have people to things for him, from doing his homework to doing his chores

He will literally just flaunt his money around, assuming that everybody will want to be his friend

He wouldn’t know how else to makes friends so this is the only way

He flirts with girls constantly

Basically trying to conquer them, which is very icky, but I definitely see him being like that

Chivalrous but not

Loyal, but not, it’s hard to describe, but he would someone to be exceptionally special to him, for him to be loyal

And essentially pleasant to be around, which isn’t often

Bankotsu, jeez this kid, he would be the worst to hang around with

He would just treat people like servants man

Like a kid man, just like a spoiled kid, but underneath all that spoiled brattiness, he is pretty sensitive

and just wants friends and love

like he loves the attention his sibling would give him

»»——⍟——««

Suikotsu would definitely be a doctor

He would love to help people with modern medicine

He would do his very best to help all of patients

Suikotsu would lose to much sleep because of it

His regular would be him living alone, going on walks early in the morning before going to work

he would eat really healthy, and constantly being studying up on medicine and terminology so that he can stay up to date with everything

His whole life will revolve around him being a doctor

the girls would have a crush on him and the boys with either be jealous or also have a crush in him

Yeah no everybody will love him, he would be the sweetest resident in the hospital, everybody will want to be his friends

Hell, they’ll want him at their wedding, and he’ll be the one to wed them

He’s certified like that

he would also love children

Everytime there is a child with a patient he would give them a lollipop or something to keep them occupied

He would be the type of doctor to distract them, tell them that everything is going to be okay

he’d be a great doctor

Inuyasha & Yashahime Translation: Shounen Sunday Super December Edition

Takahashi Rumiko-Sensei’s Question Corner Rumic Question

From the many questions we received from readers via the web, we chose 20 questions for Takahashi Rumiko-sensei to answer!!

Q: The names of the characters in “Inuyasha” are not only original but fit them so well that you can’t think of any other name; peerlessly cool good taste! How did you come up with their names?

Once you name a character, you cannot change it so that’s what I worry about the most. Even if I give them a temporary name for when they make their debut, if it doesn’t stick I will think all the way up to the last minute. While all I can say is “That was the name that fit that character” … a name that is easy to call, draw, and remember. A name that fits the story. For example, in flower language, Kikyou means “Unchanging love” or how Kagome is like a children’s song and cute. I feel like Sesshomaru originally had a different name, but I forgot. On the other hand, I remember the outfit design solidified when I decided on the name.

Q: There are a lot of demons that appear in “Inuyasha” but who was the hardest and easiest to draw?

Magatsuhi was the hardest to draw. He didn’t have a solid form afterall. Also I drew them as I pleased so I don’t remember really struggling.

Q: Is Buyo a male or a female?

When serialization first started, I thought they were a male at first but as I continued to draw, I started to think “This cat might be an old lady”. They might be a female. Well Buyo is Buyo so I think it’s fine if everyone decides for themselves whether Buyo is a male or a female.

Q: I want to know how Sesshomaru and Jaken first met. Was Jaken an old man from the time they first met?

I remember their meeting being drawn in an original episode in the “Inuyasha” anime. I can’t remember which episode number though. According to that, Jaken was a demon leader who lost to Sesshomaru in battle and thus decided to follow him, I think that was the scenario. And I think he was an old man as well.

Q: If Kikyo had lived on, would she and Kagome have been good friends

As long as Inuyasha is around, I think it would be really hard for them to be friends like nothing happened… I imagine they would have this strange tension between them as they accepted the other while feeling uneasy. I don’t think Inuyasha could mentally handle that either.

Q: I like small creatures that appear in the Rumic World like Kilala and Shippou so could you tell us what you focus on when drawing these small creatures?

I make sure that they’re fundamentally cute in appearance. Also because of how small they are, they ride on a main character’s shoulder. Anyhow, I make sure they can share the spotlight.

Q: I think Tessaiga is a good sword that is considerate of the main character such as when it gives Inuyasha a warning so as not to hurt him but Inuyasha treats it so recklessly in comparison. (Though he acts like that fully trusting Tessaiga) If Tessaiga could talk, what do you think it would say to Inuyasha? I have loved “Inuyasha” since I was in elementary school and I’ve viewed the manga and anime but looking back, I feel Tessaiga was gallant in responding to Inuyasha’s recklessness… I was curious about this so I decided to ask.

Tessaiga is a sword forged from his (Inuyasha) father’s fang so while being Inuyasha’s “friend”, I would guess that it might be an existence of higher status. If it could talk, it would probably say “Hurry up and catch up to me”

Q: Thank for the Anime Support Project. “What a time to be alive to be able to send a question to Takahashi Rumiko-sensei” Is what I think (laughs). I’ve loved “Inuyasha” since I was a child and it’s my life’s “bible”. I admired Kagome and lived thinking that I want to be a kind, strong woman like her. Now here is my question: There was a scene where Sesshomaru said “I don’t eat human food” but for a demon that doesn’t attack humans, what does he eat to sustain his life? I mean Inuyasha and Shippou ate with Kagome and the others so do demons and humans eat the same thing? Was Sesshomaru by chance bluffing with that line? Lastly, I look forward to the serialization of “Hanyou no Yashahime” and “MAO”! Thank you for all the wonderful works.

Thank you for your support. Sesshomaru’s meals, I can’t imagine it after all. There’s a possibility he absorbs mists of “essence” or “energy” of the demons he’s defeated. Also fruits are another possibility.

Q: Within “Inuyasha”, is there a story that was most fun for you to draw? Also I would love for sensei to tell us your best (favorite) episode!

I have a lot of favorite episodes so it’s hard to decide. Black haired Inuyasha on the Night of the New Moon was refreshing and fun, and the stories of Inuyasha going to the Modern Era and loosening up as he took a break from fighting had me in many laughing fits. Also drawing the story for the Band of Seven made me excited. And, while fun may not be the right word, I put a lot of effort into Kagura’s death and Kikyou’s last moments with the idea that I wanted to give them a proper send off. The process of Kagome and Inuyasha and Miroku and Sango’s relationship gradually changing was also fun. Ultimately if I had to pick one, it’s probably the final episode. I finished drawing it feeling “I finally made it” and it was satisfying.

Q: I love the Band of Seven in “Inuyasha”! Did Bankotsu, who is the strongest member of the Band of Seven, scout the others? Bankotsu and Jakotsu seem close so are they the first members? I’ve always wondered this. I look forward to appealing enemies appearing in Yashahime.

I think all the other members of the Band of Seven most likely had enough strength to make it on their own. For all those people to come together would require a very strong leader at its core which is basically what Bankotsu was. Also, being together made jobs easier or they felt there may have been a merit. I feel like Bankotsu and Jakotsu being the founding members does indeed fit really nicely.

Q: I really like Monk Miroku and Sango in “Inuyasha” and I continue to support them even now. My question is in the end, how many children did these two, who said “Would you be willing to bear 10, 20 children?” when they purposed, have? If you have back stories and such for the children, I would love to hear them.

I only remember the twins and the newborn baby boy that appeared in the last chapter of “Inuyasha” making an appearance in Yashahime. In my mind, I didn’t think of anything beyond that but they are still a young married couple so I think there’s unlimited possibilities. I am happy that you like these two even now. Thank you very much.

Q: I have a question regarding the different use for “Scent” and “Odor”. The expressions for when Sesshomaru smelled something, for Rin it was constantly “scent” and for everything else it was “odor”. When they first met too, the expression was “A human’s scent”.  Just as Inuyasha called Kagome’s smell a “scent”, is it because it is a “smell” that they like?

I had an image of Inuyasha and Sesshomaru differentiating between friend or foe with “smell”. Of course “scent” is friend while “odor” is enemy. In addition, keeping in mind of the image that comes to readers minds when they see these words, I fundamentally had “scent” used for female characters. I wanted readers to get a sense of purity and cuteness from it.

Q: If there’s an episode or scene in “Inuyasha” that ended up turning out differently than what was originally thought up prior to serialization, could you please tell us?

First, I only started the story with the idea of half-demon Inuyasha, getting back stabbed by Kikyou and getting sealed away, and having a sword that was his father’s memento. Everything else, I created while thinking on the week of. Thus, Naraku came after, as well as I thought of Shippou, Miroku, and Sango when they debuted. I had thought of Sesshomaru possibly dying after protecting a human but it seemed like such a waste and I became unable to kill him. The direction of the story was decided when the antagonist, Naraku, was born. I’m an adlib (improv) type person so I won’t be surprised by what I draw if I decide things too far ahead. It’s fun to imagine every week “What will they do, what will happen”.

Q: “Inuyasha” is my bible on life! When talk of Yashahime happened, what was your first thought?

In my mind “Inuyasha” was complete so when they spoke to me about this, I thought “You’re going to do this?”. However Sumizawa-san, who handled the scenario for the “Inuyasha” anime, is a person who, in addition to being adept and talented, does not make mistakes so I felt that I could leave it to him.

Q: In the final chapter of the original work, Sesshomaru was gifting Rin a kimono but how did he go about obtaining it? I’m really curious as to if Sesshomaru delivered something Jaken prepared or if he went and bought it himself?

I thought about this over and over after I received this question. I think after all, he would order Jaken to go buy it and to continue buying until he bought a kimono that fit his image. On top of that, he probably doesn’t tell him (Jaken) a precise image to begin with.

Q: In “Hanyou no Yashahime” we saw Grandma Kaede. Seeing her surprised me… she hasn’t changed from the time of “Inuyasha”! Is Grandma Kaede by chance a demon?

She’s a human. However she still has the role of advising the young folks and having them listen to stories from the past so maybe she doesn’t age because it’s something worth doing.

Q: In “Hanyou no Yashahime”, Inuyasha and Kagome’s child, Moroha, appears. Inuyasha is a half demon, Kagome is a human, and Moroha is cross between a human and a half-demon. Do the three of them age differently in the Feudal Era?

In the span of the story, they seem to age the same. I’m sure the results will gradually begin to show after a few decades.

Q: In “Hanyou no Yashahime” Moroha wears a red ribbon; is this ribbon something with Inuyasha’s ears in mind? Also why is it that Inuyasha, who is a half-demon, has dog ears but Towa and Setsuna, who are also half-demons, do not? I can under Moroha since she’s a quarter (demon)… is there a basis for the dog ears? Please tell us!

Just as you guessed, Moroha’s ribbon was a projection of Inuyasha’s image. In regards to the dogs ears for Towa and Setsuna, Sesshomaru takes a human form and reversely, Inuyasha was something like half beast. The half demons that appear in Inuyasha have all sorts of appearances so understand that it depends on the individual.

Q: Ever since I watched the anime, “Inuyasha”, when I was 5 years old, it has been my absolute favorite work. When I was young, whenever I looked at the sacred tree at the shrine, I always imagined “Was Inuyasha sealed to this tree?...” It’s been 12 years since the original work was concluded. 10 years since the anime “Final Act”. I’m so excited for “Hanyou no Yashahime” beginning this fall! What was the most important thing when you designed the half-demon princess, Towa, Setsuna, and Moroha?

Scenario writer Sumizawa-san asked of me the following images: Towa as a “White Sesshomaru” and Setsuna as a “Black Sesshomaru”. While they’re twins, they grew up in two completely different eras so I designed them as two separate individuals. In addition, while Towa wears a boy’s uniform, I thought it would be good if she had a feminine streak to her. Moroha strongly resembles Inuyasha and Kagome. She’s a cheerful character so I didn’t have any second thoughts when I drew her into what she is now.

Q: Is there anything in “Hanyou no Yashahime” that you would like readers to pay attention to?

Sunrise’s beautiful pictures and animations as well as the story is also entertaining. The previous generation will periodically make an appearance and I think Towa, Setsuna, and Moroha are each charming. I think it’s a work that both first time people and people who watched “Inuyasha” can enjoy. Also Wada Kaoru-san continues from “Inuyasha” as being in charge of music. I’m excited for this as well.

We received a comment, autograph, and illustration for all the readers from Takahashi Rumiko-sensei!

[bakusaigaa]

Something completely unrelated to HNY but I always thought it was weak how people pretend like Bankotsu and Jakotsu are the only band of seven members, even though Renkotsu is right there, just because they're the two most typical pretty boys I guess?? Wish there was more Renkotsu or proper Squad content :( but anyways I hope you're doing alright and taking care during all this <#

i can’t believe i’m in the year 2021 and i’m getting asks about renkotsu/band of seven. warms my heart.😭

but yeah, bankotsu and jakotsu were always fan favorites. with jakotsu i see him more now as kinda problematic, just because there seems to be this weird trend with portraying gay characters as super sadistic and/or violent in anime, at least in older ones. idk if that was RT’s intention but he’s just not a character i find as interesting anymore because of that.

bankotsu just always annoyed me; his personality and macho swag were tiring but it certainly made for great fight scenes. i think he was a good opponent for inuyasha; they were both very hot-headed and passionate fighters, and the two of them were similar in that they barely had any brain cells to rub together lol. but renkotsu was always my favorite. i always felt bad for him; obviously he’s a villain but it seemed to me that he got caught up in that “smart villain ends up getting rekt by dude who punches his way through things” trope. he was always the one who had to write because bankotsu couldn’t write, jakotsu was a chore to explain things to and was more impulsive, i just imagine that renkotsu’s tenure as a support merc all those years only to be resurrected and be in that same position all over again was super aggravating. he was definitely underhanded at the end of the arc but at that point what else was he to do...no doubt fed up with the majority of his brothers at that point. i thought he was a great villain, and i really, REALLY like his design. one of my dnd characters even shares his exact likeness lol.

thanks for the ask, i’m doing well considering. i think i’m going back into the grief stage after making angry posts for the last 24 hours lol. hope you’re doing well too!

[niorrrr]

I think that one of the problems of Yashahime is that there isn't any interesting minor villain, i mean if there was something like the Shichinintae (I dont know if I write it well) everything would be better.

Imagine a villain as interesting and cool as Bankotsu, amazing

The room is dark wood and fogged glass, the canopy above her draped in red. There's a fire blazing in the corner, warming her body for reasons she doesn't understand. She lays atop the blankets, her only covering a robe so sheer she may as well not be wearing it at all. The fabric is cool against her heated flesh, slits on its side letting it pool around her enticingly.

There's a man at the edge of her bed, with long dark hair and hard eyes. He is dressed as she is, in a black silk robe hanging open, revealing pale skin. But where she is naked beneath her silk, he is wearing trousers made to sleep in.

They do little to hide his interest in her state of undress.

"I see you've made yourself ready for me, dearest." 

Had she? Her mind is filled with cobwebs, a blurred haze keeping her from her memory.

"I have made myself ready for you." Yes, that must be it. Why else would she be this way?

"Is my wife pleased to see me?"

His wife? So he was her husband then. Then yes, she should be happy to see him.

"I am happy to see you," she tells him. The words are correct, but they do not feel like her own.

"Of course you are." His smile is sharp and wicked. She shivers, though she cannot say why. "Come to me."

She makes to stand, but he slashes her a look.

"On your knees, pet."

Her knees? It takes a moment for the command to make sense. He wants her to crawl on the bed to him. He wants her displayed.

He crooks a finger at her, motioning her forward. She does as she's bid, crawling up the bed on all fours. He lifts her by the chin when she reaches him, making her rise on her knees. He can see all of her.

"I am your husband."

"You are my husband."

"You are mine to do with as I please."

She swallows. "I am yours to do with as you please."

His smile is deadly. "Undress me."

Her hands are shaking as they reach for him, pushing the silk from his shoulders and letting it fall to the floor. She reaches for his trousers next, but his hand on her wrist stops her. Instead he draws it forward, making her fingers circle and tighten around his manhood.

"Use your hands, dearest. Please your husband."

Unsure, she flexes her fingers around him, stroking him through the soft cloth. His eyes flutter shut, a moan of pleasure humming in his throat. He's enjoying it then.

She continues to tug at him, and there is now a growing wetness where his tip rests against the fabric. She circles her finger there, and he hisses through his teeth. His eyes on hers are dark, hungry. They make her nervous.

He reaches to the small table at the edge of the bed, on which sits an uncorked bottle of wine, a small vial, and two full goblets. With one hand he picks up the vial and opens it, pouring its contents into one of the goblets. He recaps the vial and sets it carefully aside, then picks up the now slightly fuller cup, holding it out to her.

"Do not stop pleasuring me. Drink."

He lifts the cup to her lips, tilting it enough to allow the wine to flow into her mouth. She swallows obediently, her hands ever moving. He makes her drink until the goblet is empty, and sets it aside.

The cobwebs have grown, the haze blurring her vision. The man in front of her pushes her back on the bed and crawls over her, making her hold herself open for him. Presenting herself like a sacrifice.

He aligns himself with her opening, his smile full of teeth. Her blue eyes are glossy, unseeing.

"Hello, Kikyo."

He thrusts inside.

It was three more days before his lordship decided to finally leave the castle. In the end, he decided to extend his hunting trip by a few more days in order to tour the local villages on their return home.

This, of course, meant it wasn't only Bankotsu going with him. He'd also decided to bring Jakotsu and Kyokotsu along as well. Jakotsu was known by his reputation of cruelty alone, but Kyokotsu’s massive size was more than enough to use as an intimidation tactic.

The rumors spreading through the castle village that he had cannibalistic tendencies were only an added bonus.

Still, it meant the castle was quiet, and it was safe for her to walk the halls without having to look over her shoulder. The peace let her think of other things, and she found her mind wandering back to what she'd seen in the hidden room the previous week. There was no doubt that whoever had been trapped in that cell was still sitting there. The only question was whether or not they were still alive.

The thought continued to haunt her. If they were dead, there was nothing she could do for them. But if they lived, what state were they in? Were they being allowed food to eat, water to drink? Blankets to keep out the nights growing chill? Should… should she help them?

Her immediate response was yes, of course she should, if only because she hoped some kind soul would do the same if she were in such a position. But not only that, it was the right thing to do despite the potential danger. And to not do something, to not try and help in some way…

It made her feel like her father. 

That was what ultimately decided her. The kitchens were in the lower part of the castle, and no one stopped her on the way. There she found a small basket which she filled with fruit, bread, and cheeses. She also made sure to pick up a pouch of water.

A cheesecloth kept her precious cargo from prying eyes, but there were no servants in the halls to stop her. Even so, habit kept her close to the walls and out of the way of any potential passer by, while also letting her peek around corners to ensure she wouldn’t run into anyone she wanted to avoid.

The tapestry that hid the doorway loomed over her, its subjects staring down with leering eyes. But she would not be swayed. Swallowing her nerves and finding her courage, she pushed her way past it and slipped inside the door.

Again there was little light to guide her way. The scones on the walls had not been lit, and would stay that way until Jakotsu returned. 

Kagome made her way down the stairs slowly, keeping one hand braced against the wall to guide her. The landing was empty of its noisey bucket, and she finally allowed herself to look at the dungeon beyond her.

Before her was the large cell where she’d seen Jakotsu. Now, however, she could see the smaller walkway to its left, the wall lined with the bars of empty cells. In the corner to her left stood a torture rack, its wooden table covered in old blood. Next to it sat a rusted bucket, but for her own peace of mind she wouldn’t try to see what was inside.

Her attention was drawn forward to the large cell when she reached the bottom of the stairs. Nerves slowed her, but she would not be deterred.

“Hello?”

She waited, but there was no response. Swallowing thickly, she moved closer to peer inside.

“Hello? Is anyone there?”

“You shouldn’t be here.“

Kagome jumped and her steps paused, unsure now of her approach.

He sighed. “If you stay here, he’ll find you. You don’t want him too.”

“Jakotsu.“ Her eyes went to the floor, fingers curling in a fist over her heart.

“You know who he is.“ The other didn’t sound surprised. “If you know him, then you know what he’s capable of. He’ll do more than hurt you, especially since you’re a woman.“

“No, he won’t.“ The other shifted, and she imagined he was looking through stone to see her. “He knows he’s not allowed to hurt me.”

He scoffed. “You really expect that to stop him?”

“It’s what’s always stopped him.” Her voice grew quiet. “He takes it out on others instead.“

There was a low snarl. “Then what the hell are you doing down here?“

“I… I knew he kept someone down here. I was worried.“

The man snorted. “Just another secret in stone. And this castle’s secrets are better left uncovered.“ His voice was bitter. “Trust me. You can’t help anyone who lives here by finding them out.“

Curious, she stepped forward. “How do you know that?“

“This isn’t exactly my first day here.“ There was a shuffle of noise, chains clanking as the figure moved. “You should get out of here. Before he finds you.“

“He won’t find me. He’s not here.” Cautiously, she stepped forward. She could just make out the edge of an arm behind the bars. ”My father took him on his hunt.“

“Your father?” She could hear the frown, hear the clang of metal dragged on the stone floor. “Whose your father?“

Instinct told her not to tell him. To give a stranger an edge over her was dangerous, foolhardy. 

“Lord Onigumo. My father is Lord Onigumo.“

The stranger behind the bars moved, and now she could see all of him in the flickering torchlight. He had eyes like amber and long silver hair, matted with dirt and blood. Ears, canine ears, drooped atop his head.

But he looked emaciated. His skin was covered in badly healed scars; it clung to his bones, making him look like a walking skeleton. It made her sick to think of.

“How old are you?“

She had to swallow hard before she could answer him. “I’ll be one and twenty this year.“

He looked behind her to the stairs, tracing their path. She followed his gaze for a moment and turned back to him. “If you can tell me where the key is, I’ll release you.“

His eyes flew back to her in surprise.

She gave him a nervous smile. “No one deserves to be trapped here. If I can free you, I will.”

He was quiet, searching her expression for any sign of deceit. His shoulders relaxed when he found none. “I believe you. But you can’t help me. Jakotsu keeps the key with him at all times.“

“… I see.” Her eyes fell to the ground, fingers clutching at the skirt of her dress. “I’m sorry.“

“Don’t be.” He tilted his head, watching her curiously. “You said Naraku was your father?“

“I don’t know a Naraku. My father is Onigumo.”

“Naraku, Onigumo. Same guy, different name.“ He moved closer to the bars, bracing his arms against them. ”Your mother must be Kikyo.“

Kagome nodded, though her shoulder’s tightened at the mention of her mother. “Yes, she was. This winter will mark five years since she passed.“

The other shut his eyes, expression tight. “How did she die?“

“I… I don’t know.”

“You’re her daughter, how the hell could you not know?”

She swallowed. “I wasn’t permitted to know. They said… the healers said to know would give me undue stress. So I was never told.”

He scoffed. “Right. More like the bastard killed her and wanted it kept quiet. Didn’t want it getting out.” Amber eyes open, riddled with hearts-pain and an old anger. “The others can’t know. He’d be dead already if they did.”

“I…” His gaze met hers, but she carried on. “I know my father to be capable of many things, but… I do not think he killed her.”

Cracked lips bled as they lifted in a snarl. “You’d defend that bastard?”

Kagome shook her head. “No. I only remember his…. His obsession.” She swallowed. “Knowing that… I cannot think he would rid himself of her willingly. Nor by his choice.”

“It doesn’t matter,” he said softly, leaning against the bars that separated them. “In the end… she’s still dead.”

Her words were a sympathetic whisper. “I’m sorry.”

“Don’t be.” His chains rattled, and his body sagged. “You didn’t do anything.”

Perhaps not. But her existence could not have made things any easier. “… did you know my mother well?”

He didn’t lift his head. “She was the only friend I ever had. My Uncle sent me to find her. But she wasn’t ready to leave yet, so I stayed. Naraku came not long after that.”

When she told me she didn’t want to get married… I told her I’d take her wherever she wanted to go. Even if it meant never returning to my home.” His voice cracked the longer he spoke.

“We planned to leave the night before her wedding. But someone found out, and I was taken prisoner. Naraku brought me to her. He told her if she didn’t go through with the marriage he’d kill me then and there.”

He scowled. “It wasn’t an idle threat. The men he employed shouldn’t have been able to hold me, but they could. Kikyo knew that, and if they could hold me… well.” He shook his head. “Even if she’d let him do it, she couldn’t escape on her own. So she agreed. Naraku called for a priest and had the marriage performed that night.” Something dark took hold of him, though she could not see it.

“The bastard made me watch him consummate the marriage.”

Kagome bit her lip, her grip tightening on the basket even as she stepped forward. Her pale hand covered his. “You loved her.”

He shrugged. “It was a long time ago. And you said she died, so… at least she’s free of him now.”

“Yes. There is that.”

He finally lifted his head and met her eyes. An ear flicked curiously atop his head, his nose quivering as he inhaled. “You smell like her. Only a little though. It’s nice.”

She finally cracked a smile, amused despite herself. “Thank you, I think.”

“It’s not a bad thing.” He nodded at the basket in her hand that he’d ignored until then. “What’s that for?”

“Oh!” She’d almost forgotten why she’d come down here in the first place. “It’s food. I brought it down for you. With Jakotsu gone, I was worried there was no one to look after you.”

Amber eyes were wide with surprise. “You… brought that for me? What for?”

Kagome looked at him curiously. “So you would have something to eat. I wasn’t sure who knew about your presence here, or if anyone did for that matter. So I thought…”

“I don’t…” he shook his head, swallowing thickly though his eyes never left it. “You didn’t have to do that. Starvation won’t kill me. Just makes things difficult.” 

“That’s no reason for you to go hungry,” she said firmly. “If anything, it just means you should eat more.”

He snorted, lips quirking in an awkward smile. “What’s your name, princess?”

“I’m Kagome. What’s yours?”

“Inuyasha.”

InuxKag Week 2020--Day 6 Reunion

This is an idea me and @superpixie42 were talking through.  I blame @keichanz and @cstormsinukagblog for inspiring a ghost au idea.

So the premise is after Kagome’s dad passed, they moved into her grandfather's shrine.  She's sixteen and inherited her dad's ability to see ghosts and her job is to help them move on. But no one else knows about her abilities except her bff Miroku who shares her gift and his girlfriend Sango. (I will write the actual the Chapters but this is just to set up the reunion piece). So Inuyasha was up in her new room just sitting on the bay window staring at the Sacred Tree when she approached him saying he didn't belong there and needed to leave. 

Inuyasha, obviously, didn't take that well and basically told her to fuck off-- and so, they had to build up their relationship from annoyance and loathing to friendship and possibly more *wink wink* 

@inukag-week @superpixie42 @lemonlushff @dangerouspompadour @keichanz @cstormsinukagblog @willowandfog @inuyashaloverforever @xfangheartx @clearwillow  @umacaking @bluejay785 @smmahamazing @murdergiraffe @faulkner-blog @sapphirestarxx @swaggingtomboy @sarah-writes-stories @hnnwnchstr @wolverine1092

This excerpt would be a couple chapters in more than likely:

Rated Teen for language

It'd been a week since she had been home. She was drained, exhausted, and irritated.

Her and Miroku had done an overnight exorcism that had gone horribly wrong. She thanked the Gods Sango was outside and had been able to call the ambulance. Not that she voiced that at the time. Because you know, she was underneath the collapsed building.

She had forced Miroku to flee when she saw things going south with the young girl spirit that was hell bent on revenge against her best friend. Long story short, the spirit’s best friend stole her boyfriend, sent her into a depressive streak, finally had been comfortable enough to leave the house without humiliation only to be killed in a car accident. Teenage bullshit. You know, classic stuff. 

Miroku and her were able to trap the girl in an abandoned building by the ports. They figured they could use the water by purifying it and then zapping her if she didn't see reason. Which she didn't, no teenager ever does. To which they had to have used the water. Then that sparked the crazy train of events such as: the insane amount of anger and hatred inbedded in the soul that made her strong enough to bring down the building, the fact that she was able to withstand the purification as long as she did just so she could take them down with her, and that she was dead set on killing them.

But Kagome was stronger than Miroku. Much stronger and knew she could hold her; it wasn't like she had a boyfriend or anybody worrying about her. Yea, she had family but… no real future. 

Not that she meant for it to come off like she wanted to die a martyr or that she was unloved. But the guy she was insanely in love with to the point where she dreamt of him nightly.

Yes, she had just turned a measly seventeen but… she'd never felt that way before. Miroku and her had been friends for YEARS and never once had she imagined shoving her tongue down his throat.

Let alone any other guy that's asked her out-- Hojo, Akitoki, Bankotsu, and the new kid Koga. No one haunted her dreams the way the dead half demon did. Maybe it was because he haunted her bedroom too. 

She oddly hoped if she did end losing her life that she'd haunt the same bedroom with him. And that maybe, just maybe, he'd be more than okay with it.

He had started acting strangely. It took months for them to get to where they were… 'comfortable' with each other. She had given up on trying to exorcise him or convince him to move on.  Not to mention he gave up on avoiding her, fighting with her, or just all around pissing her off. It was useless hiding as she always found him and that’s what started half their fights.

They had grown to have a mutual respect for each other.  

And then she fucked it up. She came back after an emotional exorcism crying. He caught her due to ‘space brain’. She was upset about what she and Miroku ended up having to do; it was a young boy who passed away due to cancer and he was sucking the life from his mother. He refused to leave her alone and they were left with no choice; help the mother live, or let the dead boy kill her…

Anyway, she was caught. It made her even more embarrassed that he had found her. At that point, she had a schoolgirl crush on the ghost. He was handsome, well built, spoke his mind, didn’t falter his beliefs for anything, and overall wasn’t the biggest asshole as a roommate. He gave her space and privacy when she needed it. He didn’t crowd her, overbear on her. He definitely did his own thing and didn’t rely on her to keep him company. They enjoyed the companionable silences when they were together.

She was about to fix her face and replace the mask she wore when he stopped her. It was like he was shocked to see she had emotions. If anything it pissed her off enough to try and slap him away from her but he caught her hand.  Before she could retaliate to the intimate touch, he pulled her into his arms. And the dam burst. Everything she had ever held in, just came soaring out in sobs and hysterics. He held her all night, comforting her. He whispered endearments when she grew quiet, listened to when she spoke. That was all she needed to know she was actually in love.

Since that night though, he'd be… distant. Trying to give her extra space. Extra time to herself. He’d disappear for hours unend. She’d feel him reappear after she had fallen asleep to which she pretended to be dreamland. Obviously he was avoiding her. She had actually felt better having opened up to someone. Actually having been vulnerable for once. But she fucked up. Her mistake. She obviously misread things.  

But then as the building was suffocating her--the weight suddenly was thrown off her. She felt strong arms wrap around her; she thought she was dead. That Inuyasha finally came for her. Maybe he loved her after all. Everything was unclear. Muffled. She couldn't make fact from fiction. She swore she heard her name fall from his lips… and then briefly kiss her forehead...

When she awoke in the hospital a couple days later,  Miroku told her Inuyasha had gone in and got the heavy beams off of her and carried her out. Sango had called the ambulance already and Miroku ensured Inuyasha returned home and promised he would be in contact with him when he knew more.

They convinced her mom that she and Miroku had been jumped and brought to the warehouse by the thugs. They ran off when they felt the building begin to collapse and Miroku had been just out of way to only have some cuts and bruises.

Kagome unfortunately had a sprained wrist, a dislocated shoulder, a cracked hip, and a busted femur. She got 4 stitches to her temple but otherwise, she was okay. She was lucky to be alive, they said. 

“Miroku… Have you--Have you talked to Inuyasha?”

“Well, I did promise him, Kagome. He was very worried about you.”

“I don’t know why,” she scoffed in the passenger seat of the car. “He acts like he’d prefer if I didn’t exist.”

“From where I was standing last week, I think he feels far from that,” he teased turning to her smiling.

She blushed under the scrutiny, “Wh-What do you mean?”

“Ah, it is not for me to say; but I will tell you he does not wish to see you dead.”

“Yea,” she added, rolling her eyes pouting. “Doesn’t want to be stuck with me for eternity.”

“Oh Kagome,” he said disapprovingly as he stopped the car in front of the shrine getting out of the car to help her. Her mom was working at the hospital, Sota was at school, and her grandpa had been called away on business with another shrine. Miroku was the only one left to really care for her--a responsibility he lovingly took. “Just relax. It isn’t like that either.”

She stood shakely on one leg and took his arm but he smiled and turned to his left rather than paying her attention. Perplexed, her eyes followed to where he was looking and she saw him--Inuyasha. Standing at the steps to the shrine. Waiting for them.

“Inuyasha,” Kagome breathed.

“Monk, can you take her crutches inside? Maybe make her something to eat since I’m not used to that kind of technology still… I’ll grab her. I can’t see ya making it halfway up the stairs with her on your back,” he said never breaking eye contact with her.

“Of course,” Miroku winked to Kagome. “I’ll see you up there.” Before she could protest, Miroku shot up the stairs with the crutches in hand.

She cursed him under breath and gasped when she saw Inuyasha had closed the proximity between them.

“Inu--”

“Hold on,” he said as he lifted her in his arms gently. Her arms automatically swung around his neck, wincing at the starin from her wrist and shoulder. He grimaced but jumped up the stairs and used the window to her room to enter the house and then set her gently on her bed. 

To say she was baffled by his behavior was an understatement. It was like he was pulling a full one-eighty.

“Uhm--Inu--”

“Are you fucking crazy?!!? You could have been killed!!! You told the monk to leave so you could finish the spirit off!?!?! You’re lucky as all damn hell I followed you!!!”

“Wait--you--what??! You followed me?!?”

“Besides the point--answer the fucking question!!” he growled getting in her face.

“Look! I wasn’t about to let us both die! I knew I could have handled it!”

“Yea--you ‘handled’ it alright!! You almost got yourself killed!! Fuck Kagome!! What in God’s name were you even thinking!?!? Sota already lost a dad, your mother lost her husband and your grandfather lost a son!!! You trying to add to the family misfortune?!?! Goddamnit!!! You’re a fucking idiot!!! I can’t believe you were so willing to go down with the spirit for what?!?! So she wouldn’t harass her best friend and ex boyfriend-person??!”

“That’s my job, Inuyasha! I’ve been doing it for the last three years now and let me tell you, I have been doing just fine without you!”

“Without me, you would have fucking died there Kagome!!! I caught the shit just as it landed on you!! Without me you would have bled out and never seen the light of day again!! Was it worth it?!?!”

“Obviously Miroku is safe and Sango has her boyfriend. The other teens are fine so, yea, it would have been. I would have completed my job and been fine,” she lied.

“Dead--you would have been DEAD!!! You’re missing the fucking point!!” His hands slammed down to cage her between his arms, chest, and the headboard. He snarled angrily at her making her just as angry as him.

“What’s your fucking problem?! As of late, it didn’t really seem like you cared if I was here or not anyway!!” she yelled back.

“Of course I fucking care, stupid!!”

“Is that so?? Just don’t want my brother as your roommate? Scared when he turns thirteen he’ll put two and two together that he can see ghosts too??”

“No! The brat doesn’t scare me!!”

“Then why do you care if I’m here or not!!?”

“Because you can’t leave me!!!”

She froze and exhaled sharply. She must’ve forgotten how to breathe because her chest grew tight and knots formed in her belly.

“Wh--” she started.

“You’re… the only friend I’ve had in five-hundred years, Kagome. Why would you… Why were you willing to throw all that away?”

“Like I said Inuyasha…” she said carefully. “You didn’t seem very interested in being my friend for the past couple of weeks anyway. I wasn’t trying to sacrifice myself; I honestly thought I could handle it.”

“It’s not--It’s not that I wasn’t interested in being your friend,” he admitted sitting down beside her. “I was afraid I crossed a line with you.”

“What line did you think you crossed?”

“The night I found you crying… I couldn't let you be alone. I couldn’t leave you. I--I pushed myself on you,” he admitted. If he could blush, she knew he would be.

“It’s okay. I’m not upset by it… If anything, I’m grateful. I’ve never been able to open up to anyone about this before. It was… nice. I really appreciate it. I also, I uhm, I really appreciate your friendship. Aside from Miroku and Sango, I don’t have any friends. It’s not easy to make when you’re a freak, ya know?”

He stared into her eyes and leaned in; he brushed his lips against hers making her blush hard enough for the both of them. 

But she could lean in and return the pressure, her bedroom door swung open and Inuyasha was leaning against the bench of the bay window. Arms crossed. His head turned away. 

“Sorry, didn’t mean to interrupt; I brought you some water and soup,” Miroku offered, placing it down on her bedside table. He quickly left the room and Kagome turned to try and find Inuyasha only to see he disappeared.

Some reunion.
