A/N: Hooray! It's been a success. There's something to say for blogging as a way to get rid of writer's block. I'm glad you guys like this series. I wasn't sure I could pull it off with grace. For a really graceful drabbler, visit Forthright. She's great! Oh yeah! My commentators... I love you guys! Yes Rin is naiive and innocent. And I'm glad you're enjoying this "arralas".
Last Time: Sesshoumaru and Rin learn something new.
Disclaimer: I can't even really claim the original idea. Tell me if you see any lawyers. I might have to run.

Daiyoukai and the Female Gender
Chapter 3: Daiyoukai and Curiosity

"Sesshoumaru-sama... Kagome-chan says I'm coming of age. What does coming of age mean?"

Oh no. She's started the infernal questions. How can any self-respecting males answer these questions?

"It means you will be able to have offspring, Rin."

"Oh... ...Can boys have offspring?" Why him, why him, WHY HIM?

"Yes, Rin. But women must bear the offspring for them."

"Oh... ...Kagome-chan says that boys plant the seeds and girls lay the eggs that babies come from. How do boys plant the seeds?"

"..."

"Rin! How dare you ask Milord such a question? He has no -" Sesshoumaru tuned the rest out. As long as it kept him from answering. I mean, shouldn't a daiyoukai, or any male really, be able to keep some dignity?

"Sesshoumaru-sama! Jaken-sama is being meeaan! … Will you show me how boys plant seeds, Sesshoumaru-sama?"

Perhaps... the miko was not thorough enough in explaining to Rin. ...At least this was a once a year thing.

Back in the hot springs...

"Poor guy."

"Who?"

"Sesshoumaru. Rin had her first period."

"Oh... Poor guy."

"Oops... I forgot to tell him it comes once a month!"

"WHAT? How do you forget something like that?"

"Ah well. He'll figure it out soon enough."
