Oh man, what have I gotten myself into? Before you start, keep in mind that nobody is completely in character... I guess that kind of goes without saying, but I figured I should point it out before someone else does. Sorry about that!
Enjoy!

Kurama has come to expect strange things to happen in his life. But he had to admit, he was not prepared to walk into his home one day to find it a complete mess, especially since that was not how he left it.
Kurama looked around in surprise, taking in the overturned chairs, broken table, and the scorch marks lining the wall. He figured there were two options. Either a flaming tornado had passed through his living room, or…
He sighed and headed for the bathroom. As expected, the door was closed. He opened the door to a familiar sight: Karasu crouching on his bathroom counter.
"Did you keep an eye on it this time?" Kurama asked. Karasu didn't even spare him a glance, keeping his eyes on a fixed point across the room.
"It's over there."
Kurama started to leave the room.
"Wait, where are you going? Don't leave me with that thing!"
"You were on your own all day with it. You'll last another couple seconds," Kurama called back. He returned armed with a cup and a piece of paper. "You know you're not safe up there, right? Spiders crawl up walls, a counter isn't going to stop it."
"Shut up!" Kurama shook his head with an amused smile on his face as he walked over to the creature. He frowned, and bent down to get a closer look.
"Karasu, this isn't even a spider."
"Wha-?"
"It's a daddy long leg. They aren't even technically spiders."
"Does it matter?" Seeing that the situation was basically handled, Karasu slipped off the counter and left the room. "Make sure to kill it with fire!"
Kurama sighed again before trapping the bug and proceeding to release it outside.
