So, youkai can feel love. Or, I should say hanyou, for that is what he is.
And after all his protestations... Poor Kagome-sama. It is too confusing when
the man is coy as well, isn't it?
He has led her here, out to the old dry well, and even now clasps her to him and whispers solemnly in her ear. The words cannot be heard, but they can be guessed at... he clings to her so desperately now, his love for her can no longer be questioned.
Ah, but how sad! There is nothing in her face but timid bafflement. Surely by now they should kiss? But she is limply passive in his arms, she does not even return his embrace. Perhaps I have misjudged her feelings? I doubted his... but, no... perhaps she is merely overcome. It is, afterall, such a sudden change in him.
He has cast her aside! He stares at her so coldly now and... Eh?
"Inuyasha! Omae nani o...?" That deranged fiend, he pushed her in! "Kagome-sama ga..." He pushed her in, I saw with my own eyes, but the old well, it is "...inai."
Empty.
I had not believed the tale, but it seems now she spoke the truth. It seems now that indeed somehow her own realm lies beyond... and he has forced her to return to it.
But... "Inuyasha!" Why?
"Kono ido no mukou ga Kagome no hontou ibasho nan da..."
Where she really belongs?
Ah...
And so that is the way of things. With all his love, with all his fear, to keep her from harm, to protect her, he has banished her from him. From us.
Idiot.
