Disclaimer: I do not own these characters and I do not make any profit
You are kicked back seemingly doing nothing but I know better. Your façade is a clever one, but I have seen through it and it only makes me wonder what really goes on in that mind of yours.
As a human, I can only imagine having lived two full centuries and the things you must have seen and the knowledge you must have that you chose not to make us aware of. I am not sure what the others make of you but from their actions I can only assume they have not thought on this as I have. You may look our age but that is a misleading happenstance of you being a demon.
Yes a demon you may be technically half human but you are far more a demon than you'll ever be human.
As you sit there, peeling an orange with claws capable of beheading a beast, I think of the last time I saw you hunt. Not with me or Sango or even Shippou, but by yourself for a meal you will eat alone and raw the way something in you craves. You tracked and disabled your prey with a cunning and savagery I've seldom seen you display in front of the group.
As much as it disturbed me on some level I was fascinated by it as well.
That feeling was only further amplified when you looked straight at my so called hiding spot and smiled at me in a way that wasn't comforting in the least as you bared blood coated fangs at me.
Yes you are much more than meets the eyes and I don't know if I have what it takes to delve much further.
