Hiatus

//I have been quiet an awfully long time, now. Sorry for that.

But I don’t just want to drop things. I had quite a lot to do, with being graded and stuff since my internship is nearing an end. And I have to admit, I’ve lost my muse a little. Currently I have more of a feeling of duty than fun and writing is just going slow and hard, leaving me unsatisfied at the end on top of that.

I’ve decided to take another hiatus and it might be a longer one. In case I am disappointing anyone at this point, I’m truly sorry. But I prefer coming out straight with this issue instead of cowering and trying without having fun, which would likely end up in you disliking the thread for lack of enthusiasm from my side as well.

I don’t know when I’ll be back, it may take a while, because I’ll get into the next internship right away and it is a very strict place that will expect a lot, while at the same time I’ll be starting to get back into sports for the season. And as I will be joining a team I can’t just slack off whenever I like. Hence my online time will decrease overall either way.

I’m pretty sure I’ll be coming back at some point, because this idiot and me have a few things in common so I can never just forget him. XD

//Am I being stupid if I consider reading Haikyū so I know the characters and their names, which would enable me to call out to the cosplayer to ask them for a game of salt and pepper...?

hanyoustuff:

Actually, InuYasha was a bit worried about the trees. Living things would get pushed away by the truck, but a tree that was firmly rooted would probably make the truck fold into itself. But he decided not to comment on it, it wouldn’t change anything.

He was distracted soon anyways, now looking over to his father, dark eyes even darker as his pupils diluted in the dim light. He gave him a long thoughtful glance before there was a small chuckle. “Only a demon would find silvery hair less mysterious.” Then, a short pause later he added: “I have a charm to do that, but I don’t particularly like it… It reminds me of how weak I can be.”

He only realized that his eyes had lingered too long on his son when he glanced at the road and found himself seconds away from a light post! One violent swerve, a little over steering and some swearing after the truck skimmed right past the lamp with a couple inches to spare! 

Breathing a soft sigh though his teeth he nursed his frayed nerves and managed an apologetic smile! “Bad place to put one of those things.” He teased and applied a bit more pressure to the breaks on the downhill. 

“May I ask why you think you are ‘so weak’? In this day and age the youkai have as much to fear from humans as you do. We are nothing but stories now to most of them, could you just imagine what would happen if we were discovered?”

[hanyoustuff-blog]

Pushing his feet into the floor and instinctively grabbing onto the handle on the door, InuYasha almost tumbled off the cheap seat, when the tuck swerved. He could swear that he felt the vehicle driving on two tires for a short moment and his heartrate spiked.

“Look at the road, dammit!”

Taking purposefully slow breaths he was very glad that he was human for only one night a month... with an environment like this he’d probably age prematurely and die of a heartattack. Holy shit.

“I can. Half of them would probably start worshipping you and trying to cut deals and the other half would try exterminating you most likely. Using their nuclear weapons if it would get to the worst and destroying the lands, mainly wiping out themselves though. And I’m sure they’d try science youkai, greedy to find the cure to aging and the solution to power. It’s not changed much from the old days, old man. They just have different means now, yet, also less spiritual power.” Tightened muscles relaxing a little as the effects of the adrenaline slowly wore off, he leaned back again and sloppily brushed a few strands of hair out of his face.

“I found their spiritual members much more accepting than they used to be... I have been allowed to stay at a few buddhist temples throughout the years. Even shinto shrines, although they proved to be more sceptical.” He always wondered if that might have been some influence from his old friend. As much of an individual he was, he had a lot of charismatic power.

“I mastered that sword in less time than it took you to learn how to make it transform. Might I remind you that that sword is meant to be wielded by a demon not by the likes of you.”

“Oh? You will take my head off? I’d like to see you try. You will first need to get past Tenseiga’s barrier and I do not think you have the capability of that. Further more, I’ll have your arm before the sword is even raised.”

“By all means, you are welcome to try, InuYasha. I could use the exercise.”

“You were taught how to fight and you’ve seen it before, asshole. Nobody taught me anything and I still beat your ass.” The growl became a little deeper, more serious.

“And explain to me why it does reject you every time, if you’re that much more worthy than me.”

“And now who’s relying on father’s sword for protection, using a cruch! You just think you’re so much above me.”

Walk away, walk away, damn it, walk AWAY!

His fingers were itching to move forward and he wasn’t sure there was any less effort in this than straight out fighting. But rejection might be worth a try.

After what seemed like a god forsaken time, he broke the silence, Kagome peering down at him and listening to his fair warning, giving the boy a soft compliance as he continued on their destination. Maybe something had change in the years he had been away? Maybe the castle had been abandoned and left in shambles? Maybe their was a new lord or lady residing over the residence that had no recollection of his mother… Too many maybes.

InuYasha slowed when a castle came into view on a distant hill. It was a little further up surrounded by the forest and only a small path led down to the town below. Very much like he rememberd, though the town had grown a little.

It looks like someone had succeeded taking over without burning it down... Which meant they had been fairly successfull in war as well. And the likeliness of a different family now ruling over this part of the land shrank.

It’s been a good two hundred years since he left, probably around four generations. Not enough for stories to be forgotten, not if they included the lady being taken by the great demon of the west... 

And her death caused by the illness she caught due to her filthy half-breed child.

The hanyou stopped about half a mile from the town’s entrance.

“I won’t be far. I’ll come get you in the evening.”

What the hell?! 

Sitting in front of a cup of ramen the hanyou was making worrying noises. It was a green cup - wasabi flavour. And this stuff... he’d had burning food before at Kagome’s home but that stuff burned his tongue, this stuff was spicy on a whole other level it was biting in the back of his mouth and seemed to go up through his nose and all the way into his brain. This was... not for the palate of a dog-demon.

“What fucking kind of poison is this?!” he choked out, scooting away from the cup.

“These mountain roads are usually empty this late hour. We’ll be hard pressed to find any common folk up here. With any luck I will have the road all to myself, thus you are quite safe.” It was a semi assurance at best. After all there were those creatures who needed to hunt the mountain trails. Much like he had to do.

Taking the chance to draw his eyes from the road he caught sight of his son’s human appearance. A smile playing over his face. “You look good in dark hair, it gives you such a hansom and mysterious appearance. Would you be interested in the spell to keep you looking that way?”

Granted there were stranger looking people this day and age than him, but the old youkai still felt better about hiding his peculiar appearance. Using a bit of magic that left him with black hair, corn flower blue eyes and no visible markings. It wasn’t a perfect spell however.  

Actually, InuYasha was a bit worried about the trees. Living things would get pushed away by the truck, but a tree that was firmly rooted would probably make the truck fold into itself. But he decided not to comment on it, it wouldn’t change anything.

He was distracted soon anyways, now looking over to his father, dark eyes even darker as his pupils diluted in the dim light. He gave him a long thoghtful glance before there was a small chuckle. “Only a demon would find silvery hair less mysterious.” Then, a short pause later he added: “I have a charm to do that, but I don’t particularly like it... It reminds me of how weak I can be.”

“Nah nah, you’re not looking at the bigger picture! Frozen yogurt has like 5 flavors with thousands of toppings while ice cream has like a million of flavors with like 6 types of toppings” smirked the young clerk. “Okay, what size do you want? We got a small, medium, and large. Though judging by your Titans cap, I feel like you might want the big guy, huh? Not my favorite team, but I can totalllly understand their appetite.”

The young man earned a deadpan look from the hanyou. He did not care much beside this stuff being cold and if possible not too sweet. Although it being yoghurt might do the trick after all, yoghurt usually was a bit less sweet. Yet, one never knew... So he wasn’t going to trust this thing just yet.

And what’s with the Titans?!

On close look the golden eyes probably gave away that he didn’t catch on at all until he remembered that the lable on his cap said Titans. Riiight... some human sports team, he had no idea what it was about though.

“I’ll go with the medium, thanks.” Still a little thrown off, which was audible, he let his eyes wander over the toppings available. “And can I have the least sweet things available? I don’t want my teeth sticking together...”

“It’s not an ice cream store. It’s a frozen yogurt shop. Now can I help you with anything?” sighed the young man behind the counter. 

[hanyoustuff-blog]

“Well it’s cold and it’s sweet, same thing. Do you have green tea?” There was a slight note of annoyance in his voice, but it was not really directed at the young man behind the counter.

InuYasha was simply not happy with the heat and he cursed himself for not using the charm to hide his features. The baseballcap was just jamming the heat around his ears. And the silvery hair caught the sunlight blindingly.

Miroku: Look at us, two bachelors kickin’ it in the wild!

Inuyasha: No, you just want a bodyguard so you don’t become somebody’s side-dish.

Miroku: You’re a very shrewd hanyo.

{ * Text * } Stop texting me then so I can get ready–OMW=On my way… … .  … … …  Okay I’m here. Open your door already, it’s freezing!

“I’m comming!” He just yelled out loud and pushed himself off the sofa, shuffling to the door. The door that actually was unlocked as he realised when he pushed down the handle, so he gave her a questioning look.

“You could have just come in.”

Leaving the door open, he walked back to the sofa and unceremoniously dropped down again. “I don’t think it’s cold.” He only wore a pair of track pants and a T-shirt.

“And what do you wanna watch?”

“You got lucky. I was five seconds from biting your head off.” The tiniest smile was on his face as he chuckled. “You were about to become my newest chew toy until you figured out how to make the sword transform at the last second.”

Oh he’s hit a sore spot mentioning Kagome. He’s going to keep exploiting that. It’s a gamble but it’s not as if he’s outright threatening her murder. “Why? Are you scared I might actually go and steal her away. She does seem fed up with your–how did she put it? ‘Two timing’? Your indecisiveness with Kikyo will drive her away. Then any man, demon or not can sweep her away.” He’s not serious about this, but he’s going to play like he is.

“Yeah well, you were five seconds late and who cares about were to be, it wasn’t and I did make you retreat with your tail between your legs.” He was pointing it out half yelling, his self-control only hanging on.

“As if she would go along with such a pompous arse!” Yelling a little more and visibly bristling InuYasha took a step forward. But he didn’t know how to react anymore when the topic turned to two timing. How should he react if he didn’t know how to feel about it? He loathed how everyone just forced judgement on him. How should he figure out with all the pressure and suggestions around him. He was taken aback, yet, he didn’t want to look taken aback and it ended in a frustrated growl. He even lost track of his seething.

“You dare trying, I’ll take your head off. She can be a pain in the ass, but she doesn’t deserve a punishment like you.”

Oh those words stung his pride good. He’s not ging to allow one bit of that irritation to seep into his features. Sesshomaru will not lower himself to InuYasha’s standards.

“You got lucky. It will not happen again. I will kill you and take Tessaiga for my own. Then you will have nothing. I might even take that little priestess you tote around too for the hell of it.” Okay, maybe he was going to lower himself to InuYasha’s standards–but for good measure!

“Lucky my ass, I got you!” He yelled back immediately, ignoring the threats to his person. But his face changed abruptly when Kagome was brought up. Smugness turning into irritation and anger.

“Don’t you dare involving Kagome into this! That’s dirty!” Clenching his fists, his ears perked forward and he grittet his teeth, fangs visible.

Hot summer days were boring, everything just droned on in a sluggish pace.

And after eating almost half of a watermelon it was time for a nap. Hopefully the evening would bring a cool breeze and something to do.
