Kagome's fingers traveled reverently over the intricate detailing of the gift given to her.

"What is it made of?"

"Demon amber."

Blue eyes looked up into the stoney face of her gifter. She wasn't the best at reading other people. Sesshoumaru certainly neared impossible when it came to reading his emotions. Months of traveling had granted her one peek into the mystery of the disconnected Daiyoukai. His cold eyes always seemed to ignite with a faint light when he was closely watching something. He was watching now.

"Who made it?"

"This Sesshoumaru."

Kagome's fingers stilled on the kanzashi. The craftsmanship on it was exsquisite. A cresent moon rested on top of the sleeve of the kogai style accessory. The moon was made of clear golden orange amber. On the pin sat the proud form of a dog made of an odd white amber. It was eerily reminesent of Sesshoumaru's true form.

"It is a weapon. The pin is made of fang with a hollow core containing a lethal dose of poison. It will kill most demons."

Kagome removed the pin from the sleeve, examining the hidden weapon.

"Beautifully deadly."

Like you two minds echoed as they stared at one another.
