Temari was acting strange, Kagome noticed. She smiled too wide and she laughed too wildly. Kagome never mentioned her concerns but her face must've shown them.

Kagome didn't refute her assurances. Although she didn't tell Temari, she had seen those feral smiles and untamed laughs often enough from her own friends as well as in her own reflection in the mirror.
Those grins and giggles were undoubtedly the emergence of a desperate soul trying to live as deeply as possible before an inevitable end.
