Chapter 32

Mastering Tessaiga. Saving the lives of my friends. Defeating Naraku.

None of it compares to this.

She is my greatest achievement. Didn't do all that much to get her here. Kagome gets all the credit for that. I mean it in the more broad sense, like..well...damn, what was it Sota called it way back? In his video game things...what was it? Oh. Like I've gained a level or something. I dunno, doesn't matter what it was. All that matters is her. She's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen in my life. She's perfect in every way. She looks so much like Kagome except for a little thing or two. I'm not even mad she has my ears, although it'll make her life way harder than it needs to be. She's got a little white strip in her black hair, another little piece of me, and Kagome's blue eyes. Now all she needs is a name.

I don't want to be in charge of naming her. My family doesn't exactly name their kids good. Sesshomaru's name basically means killer and my name literally means half-dog. Like what the fuck, right? Was it really necessary to make my life that much harder? Why that name? It's so stupid. So yeah, I don't fucking trust myself to name my kid. For all I know I name it something that comes back and bites me in the ass.

Gods, she's so small. I literally can fit her in between the palms of my hands like a weird sandwich thing from Kagome's time. Just look at that! I mean, I probably shouldn't be doing this but it's so fucking cute. I'm not going to drop her or anything and I'm supporting her tiny little itty bitty baby head like Kagome told me to so I don't see the harm in it. Maybe...we could name her something like Kozakura or Sayuri. Tiny flowers as pretty as she is.

"Hey Kagome, what're we gunna name her?"

"I know what I want to name her but I want your permission first."

"Why the hell do you need my permission to name her? I already told ya to do it."

"Well...fine then. Her name is Izayoi."

Every time I think I couldn't love Kagome any more, she keeps surprising me. The waning moon. My mother. It's perfect. Why didn't I think of that?
