The lady of the west watched with amusement while her lord husband made a fool of himself as he tussled with their young son in her private garden. Sesshomaru's high-pitched giddy giggles and her husband's deep throaty chuckles had her coughing discreetly into her sleeve as she covered up her laughter, while maintaining an air of disapproval. She shook her head ever so slightly at their antics. There was the great Inu no Taisho tossing the heir of the western lands up in air, only to catch him a heartbeat or two later as he fell back to earth.
Even funnier in her humble opinion was the sight of her husband slowly high-tailing it away from their son as he raced after him in a game of "hunter and prey." The lord of the western lands was known to be a fearsome demon, and yet, here he was "running away in terror" from Sesshomaru as if the child was a scary monster. Turning her attention back to embroidery, the lady sighed softly. Boys will be boys no matter what, I suppose…
Losing herself in her needlework, the lady let them be to have their fun. Despite her outward appearance of mild disapproval, she wholeheartedly agreed with her husband about the importance of playing with Sesshomaru as it honed as well as taught him skills he would need later on in life. In fact, she longed with all her being to be able to run willy-nilly through the garden with them, squealing and laughing as if they had not a care in the world.
As if sensing his wife's desire, the Inu no Taisho sent their son to her, a ball clutched tightly to his chest.
"Haha-ue?"
The lady of the west looked up from her embroidery. "Sessho-chan?"
"Wanna play catch?"
