Summary: The others had mixed reactions upon finding out about Hiei and Kurama's (rather tumulus) affair.
Shizuro had caught the looks that passed between the pair on the first day she met them and had drawn her own conclusions from there. She never mentioned it apart from that one time when Kurama had offered to help with dinner while Kuwabara took a study break to coax his cat down from the top of the bookshelf and she casually asked if chasing after small creatures perched in high places was a successful endeavor for anyone else in this house.
Keiko had never speculated on the matter and didn't know either demon well enough to comment. In fact when she witnessed Hiei sizing Kurama up with a predatory gaze at the Dark Tournament, she was reminded of her first encounter with the former demon and for the sake of her own mental health decided not to investigate further.
Yukina once spotted a slight brush of their hands together in passing and outwardly beamed at the thought of their happiness. Inwardly, she dismissed her working theory that her brother had only never revealed his identity to her because he was uncomfortable with closeness, as evidently this was not the case.
Yusuke spotted a hickey on Hiei's neck at a border negotiation and was about to rip into him for it when Kurama entered, looking entirely too composed and appropriately apologetic for being ten minutes late. His smile was perfectly pleasant and polite, but the mischievous gleam in his eye was damning enough. Yusuke glanced back at Hiei only to find a very slight pink blush on his cheeks and a flicker of annoyance in his expression. A booming laugh echoed throughout the hall, but Yusuke refused to say what was so funny other than that he owed Genkai a great deal of money.
Kuwabara, ever the last to find out about anything, was the most vocal in his reaction. On a cool summer evening after a boisterous reunion on the beach, he noticed the pair drift away from the group, and followed after them, suppressing his energy in the hopes of sneaking up on and surprising them. Instead he found Hiei and Kurama engaged in a serious whispered conversation, which his spirit sense read as Very Private. He was about to turn away when Kurama leaned forward and crushed his lips to Hiei's, holding him in place by the back of his neck. When they finally pulled apart, Kuwabara was beside them, looking solemn. Kurama opened his mouth to explain but Kuwabara spoke first, saying he very truly hoped things worked out for the both of them, but in light of the circumstances, he could no longer be Kurama's best man in the morning.
I live and breath for evil!Kurama. Or at least flawed!Kurama, because these characters are all beautifully flawed and that's what makes them so compelling.
Also, I didn't include Boton or Koenma's reactions because it didn't seem to fit with the flow (and I couldn't think of anything good for them). Anyway let me know what you think of this one, I really rather liked writing it :)
