While Kurama was cutting up some vegetables Hiei walked into the kitchen and sat on the counter next to the kit, getting a good look at her. Her bright green eyes looked up at him quizically going over all his features quickly in her small head before she held her arms out to him. Hiei looked at the small kit curiously and then slowly and cautiously placed his hand near hers; her small fingers latched onto his hand eagerly and tugged his hand down to her face before she started to gum on his fingers. Hiei made a slightly disgusted look but then smirked slightly when he noticed the kit start to fall asleep while sucking on his fingers.
Kurama smiled softly at the sight of the kit sleeping before he noticed that she was sucking on Hieis fingers. Chuckling softly Kurama returned to cooking as he spoke quietly to the fire demon.
"I never knew you were one to like the little ones." He murmured softly as he continued to cook. Hiei glared at the fox's back slightly before turning to the small kit before him. She was beautiful sitting there sleeping softly while she sucked lightly on his fingers, her small silver fox ears twitched every now and then cutely. Hiei smirked slightly before removing his fingers gently and turning to leave,
"Where are you going Hiei?" Kurama asked as he noticed Ren start to whine and whimper, Hiei turned his head slightly before answering
"I'll be back soon." He murmured before flitting out of the room, Kurama sighed before pushing Ren in her swing gently trying to calm her down.
Hiei flitted through the Makai gathering plants, herbs, and grasses that you have seen around other kitsune kits. Their mothers making them beds out of certain grasses and the plants and herbs were used for food that was safe to their infant mouths. Hiei remembered when he came across a kitsune mother and kit before when he was young, he watched and wondered what having a family would be like; shaking his head he gathered his findings and made his way back to Ningenkai.
Stopping in the tree outside the window, Hiei watched as Kurama was cooking a stew of some sort and still rocking the small kit gently, who was glaring at the fox's back and growling at him. Her growl was too cute to be threatening and Hiei smiled softly at her, before flitting inside to the kitchen and next to the small kit. She blinked at him before growling and whimpering to Kurama, "I know your hungry Ren, I'll grow you some plants in a minute please be patient." Kurama sounded exasperated as he continued to cook and push the swing. "Hn, you won't have to wait little one." Hiei murmured quietly while pulling out some of the herbs he had gathered, Kurama turned to see Hiei pulling out some plants that were specific to small kits. "Hiei? How did you know about those?" Kurama asked interested as he watched Hiei set the herbs down, "I've seen...mothers do this for their kits before..." Hiei murmured quietly as he tried to give Ren some of the herbs.
Kurama chuckled softly at the look Ren was giving Hiei, it was the 'do-you-really-think-i'm-putting-that-in-my-mouth' look. Hiei was confused on why she wasn't taking what he had offered her, surely these were the right plants? Hiei grew more and more frustrated at not knowing what was wrong, Kurama laughed before turning to Hiei and taking some of the herbs. "You have to chew it for her first, watch." He said before demonstrating what to do. First chewing the herbs up he then took them out of his mouth and placed them infront of Ren, she sniffed them cautiously before licking them, then opening her mouth she allowed Kurama to place the small plant inside her mouth. Hiei watched as Rens ears laid down in satisfaction and her tail curled around her. He watched her as she sucked and gummed the plant in her mouth before swallowing and yipping for more.
"You try Hiei, she might allow you to feed her. Kits are very tempermental about who is feeding them at times." Hiei nodded and took another kind of plant, chewing some of it in his mouth before holding it out to the kit, she sniffed it like she had Kuramas and started to lick it and open her mouth, Hiei placed the food in her mouth and smirked in victory that she allowed him to feed her. She mewed happily as she ate her fill before whining again at Kurama, who just got done making dinner. "Oh! That's right!" he exclaimed to himself before pulling a small seed from his hair and allowing it to grow, it resembled a lily as it grew, Kurama gently set the plant next to Ren before dipping his finger inside the flower. Once his finger was removed it was coated in a milky white substance, which he held out to Ren, who eagerly started to suckle on his finger urgently.
Yusuke and Kuwabara barged in from the smell of food that was set on the table and started to chow down, stuffing their faces eagerly as though they hadn't just eaten a few hours ago. Kurama smiled gently feeding Ren her milk from his plant as Hiei got both him and Kurama some food before the fools ate it all. Kurama thanked him receiving a traditional 'Hn' in response before he ate while feeding Ren, finally having enough food she curled up in a ball and snuggled into the leaves of the basket swing she was in before slowly dozing off to sleep.
