To Pull An Inu's Tail
Kagome was certain she had never experienced anything more magnificent than the velvety warmth of Sesshoumaru's… whatever it was. Stifling a languid yawn she let her fingers continue their curious exploration of the thick pelt wrapped snugly around her.
Was it his tail perhaps? No, that didn't seem likely. She had met a few demons with tails during her travels; both Kouga and Shippo had them and they were nothing like the coiling appendage resting against her bare skin. What else could it be?
Her eyes slid cautiously over to the inu youkai where he had settled himself in the cave mouth. His attention was once more focused on the moon as he tracked its voyage through the sky. He seemed to have dismissed her very existence once again. "Sesshoumaru?"
The golden eyes cut towards her for a moment before returning their stare to the sky. "Yes miko?"
"What is this?" Taking hold of the fluffy end of the tendril she waved it at him in question. The tip curled and swatted her across the nose as if to reprimand her for such undignified treatment. Once again she was reminded of Buyo. Maybe it was a tail after all.
"That is this Sesshoumaru's moko moko."
"Oh."
Silence once more reigned in the night air as she watched the tip of the "moko moko" lazily lash the air, the soft fur tickling her cheek now and again. "Sesshoumaru?"
She wasn't sure if that was a disgruntled sigh she heard or just a stray night breeze. "Yes miko?"
"What is a 'moko moko'?"
This time Sesshoumaru turned his head to look at her, a slight frown creasing the corners of his mouth. "The night is half over, miko. Do you intend to plague this Sesshoumaru with your inane questions for the remainder of it?"
