Disclaimer: ~bobbles head~ I only own cosplay, I have Inuyasha's ears,
Sesshy's sexy feather boa, and soon Kagome's bow and arrow, and (not quite
so) soon THE WORLD!
AN: Told you I would update, prepare yourself for a crash course in all things Japanese (table manners anyway) bwahahahaha! This chapter is another filler, but it's a long one, and I thought that it would be rather informative for those of you that want to know a bit more about Japanese table manners. (I'm guessing about three more chapters left in this story : ( )
The Need
Table Manners P1
Sesshoumaru stared defiantly at the bowl of rice on his plate. The way that he wasn't blinking one must have assumed he was having a staring contest with said bowl of rice. Kagome, Inuyasha, Mrs. Higurashi, Moriko, Akkan, and Kimyou watched as Sesshoumaru raised his chopsticks . . . or at least they were watching him raise his chopsticks until Mrs. Higurashi smacked them out of his hand.
"Sesshoumaru! I told you to hold them at the near end of the chopstick, not in the middle, try again." (AN: True rule, they are to be held at the near end)
Growling angrily he set his chopsticks down with the end to the right, and immediately received a quaint little "beg" from Moriko, who looked apologetically to her uncle, Mrs. Higurashi immediately spoke up in a kind voice, though she was the one who had ordered the beg.
"Sesshoumaru, when you set your chopsticks down, it is always with the ends to the left." (AN: Another true rule)
His left eyebrow twitching he quickly snatched his chopsticks up, and set them back down in the proper direction, receiving a cheerful smile from Mrs. Higurashi for his actions. The urge to slash the woman into two separate halves was beginning to overwhelm his senses, and then he thought of Rin, for now . . . he would tolerate this . . . human . . . later . . . along with Moriko . . . she would be eaten.
"Sesshoumaru . . . dear . . . don't grab your chopsticks using your palm, try again." (AN: true rule #3 using your palm is how a sword is handled, this is seen as aggressive)
Yes . . . this woman would definitely be eaten. Growling once again he picked up his chopsticks, and stuck them directly into the rice bowl, which was resting on the table. The next thing to happen surprised everyone but Kagome and Akkan, Mrs. Higurashi fainted. As she was given several questioning looks Kagome let out a nervous laugh and replied.
"You're supposed to pick up your rice bowl, and you NEVER (AN: NEVER EVER) stick your chopsticks directly into the rice, that is only done at funerals." (AN: True, they do this, and place it over the dead person's head so they will never be hungry in the next world.)
"Oy, Kagome, is it just me or does this seem kind of pointless."
"For once, I agree with the hanyou."
"Uncle Sesshoumaru, Rin is always very polite when she eats."
"Yea Fluffy, you should be more like her."
"Say that again hanyou."
"Sure fluffy."
"GENTLEMEN"
Everyone looked up to see a revived Mrs. Higurashi. Sesshoumaru's face paled, as she looked more frightening them a million revived Inutaisho (the popular name for Inu and Sesshy's father).
"Sesshoumaru, I know you didn't mean it . . . but . . . "
"I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
And so, everyone watched as Sesshoumaru ran off, in the direction of the setting sun.
"He'll be back right?"
"I hope so mama"
