"okasan!" screamed a red and blue blur as it raced towards her. Before toppling her over though it skidded to a halt right in front of her and proceeded to give her a hug.
"hi! Honey how have you been?"
kagome had started calling shippo a whole lot of different endearments when one day he asked if he could call her mom and she had accepted.
"shippo is so big now" she mused he reached a little bit above her waist.
It really was time for him to get some better training, she tried her best but she was a miko and the only training she'd ever received was what little kaede, miroku, sango, and endless life-threatening situations had taught her. She was no longer weak she could stand on her own but since she had had no professional training she wasn't all that great either.
They both could use some training. "did you bring me any candy?" shippo asked as he stared at her never letting go of her midsection, he smiled brightly with sparkaling green eyes. God how she loved her kit.
"yes I did." "Yay!" only then did shippo release her in order to jump around in happiness. Before he caught himself and attempted and failed miserably to maintain a stoic face.
" haha, ok lets see why don't we go to the village and ill give you the candy and a little surprise I brought for you ." " ok, mama thank you." "your welcome my love." "here ill carry this for you mom" giving an exasperated sigh she accepted, it had taken a while for her to realize that her shippo was indeed a youkai and so could carry a heavy backpack
still she couldn't help but feel a little concerned because the backpack was really heavy and no matter what he would always be her little shippo. oh well nothing I can do about that
