Daniel's Disclaimer: I own none of this. (STILL not Rumiko Takahashi's long lost son... dammit).

As promised in my latest profile update, here's the next ficlet! Woo hoo!

Miroku sighed, slouching down to sit next to Inu-Yasha.

"...Yes?" He said, breaking the silence.

"Where were you?" Sango accused.

"...out?" Miroku said.

Everyone else started with narrowed eyes.

"She looked really healthy…" Shippo added.

"Men are pigs." Sango announced, standing up to leave.

"Wait, Sango, it wasn't like that!" Miroku protested, on his knees.

She glared back. "Don't follow me."

Shippo and Kagome ignored him. Inu-Yasha kept staring.

Miroku stared back. "Oh, all right, you won." He pulled a string of coins out of his kesa, which he tossed to the hanyou. "She was a lizard oni this time."

Is it just me, or do all the women that Miroku catch fall into one of three catagories: Girls from before he met Sango, Sango, and big scary demons masquarading as girls to try and take advantage of his reknowned lechery to kill him? I imagine if they ran into enough of the third sort, Inu-yasha and Miroku really would start betting on what kind of demon "she" was.
