"Damnit!" a voice rung out for the third time. Kurogane dropped the chopsticks again, still unable to grasp them. He tried holding them and attempted to pick up the ebi, which dropped immediately from the sticks. Fai, who was watching bemusedly ducked as the wooden utensils went flying. On closer inspection, he noted one stick was imbedded 3 inches into the wooden pilar.
"Kuro-rin, I really thin I should help you."
"tch. No. I don't need help with them."
Fai smiled sadly, eye's dropping to the ground.
"Kuro-sama. I don't plan on eating, until you do. I… don't want you to pass out. Again." He added softly.
Kurogane looked over at t he mage, hearing the quiet apology.
One time, back in Infinity, Kurogane hadn't eaten much during the day, so after Fai's feeding, he ended up half-passed out on the couch, where Fai left him. While Kurogane had thought the guy didn't care, it was obvious now that he felt awful for the neglect.
"Keh, fine. Whatever. " Kurogane sulked, looking anywhere but the blonde. Fai immediately perked up and picked up the fallen utensils (tho he struggled to get the embedded chopstick from the wall).
He sat back down next to Kurogane and tried to pick up a tekkamakki ¹ but dropped it immediately, the chopsticks slipping in his hands. He tried again, and Kurogane grunted rolling his eyes. he placed his hand over Fai's to reposition the sticks in the proper fashion and helped Fai pick up a tempura.² they continued this hand-over-hand way of feeding until Kurogane had a decent enough lunch, in Fai's opinion.
After the feeding, Fai opted to lay next to Kurogane, using his shoulder as a pillow. Despite having a decent lunch, it still took a lot out of him, so he didn't really mind just laying here to regain his bearings. It was nice, and he didn't mind it too much, that the smaller man was peaceful for once.

cries im sorry. The idea got moldy on me. I originally had this as part of a set, but I guess I took too long. The ending sux.
Tho for one fanservy bit of info, I remember in my original idea, I had an alternate more fluffy version where Fai ate from Kuro's neck instead, and more cuddling and a cuter way of fai feeding kurogane. :-P. I also had in my original plan about Fai not letting the ninja even LOOK at raw salmon XP.

IMP NOTE:
It seems I need to explain something….
Yes I know Kurogane knows how to use chopsticks, but have you ever tried singlehandedly? I tried this out before actually coming up with thius idea, it is VERY difficult to use chopsticks without the other hand. Why? You need the other hand to position the sticks properly. That's why Kurogane got so frustrated. As a ninja from japan, he should bealbe to, but without the other hand, it just became difficult, thus resuting them being embedded into the wall. Why don't YOU try to pick them up with only one hand.
