There was a strange smell in the air.
Inuyasha tromped through the SSA, nose working overtime. He was finally about to submit the paperwork (that Larkspur and Kagome had helped him fill out) and accept lodgings at the SSA, because living out in the forest now that he had…actual possessions just wasn’t going to cut it. His haori and hakama were of youkai make, and self cleaning, and his other garments got along just fine with some heavy duty scrubbing and handmade soap.
Still, the modern clothing Sesshomaru had dumped on him wouldn’t survive well in the woods. And that hollow in the tree was too small for his bags and…the…other shit, whatever.
But he was distracted from his goal by that scent. It was like wild, untamed magic, herbs, and something like…sage, maybe? Old and dangerous, with a hint of…Inuyasha wasn’t sure what to call it; a miasma, maybe? Something not right.
Scowling, Inuyasha swerved and went to investigate. It lead him to an office, where a sign greeted him to come in. He didn’t sense any demonic aura, or even malevolent intent, so it was with no hesitation that he entered.
What greeted him was a bunch of pixies and critters, all crowding around a shrimpy human female.
The dog demon arched a brow at the display, even as a few chattering fae drifted over to settle against his shoulders. He couldn’t understand the language as one plopped between his ears, trying to reach for one as he flicked them away.
“What’s…goin’ on here?” he questioned gruffly, crossing his arms.
Chise jumped at the door suddenly opening as she looked at the ligt haired man with..dog ears? Well not the weirdest thing she has ever seen. She took a moment and realized that he was looking at the faeries. He seemed...concerned? Maybe?
“A-ah h-i” She said slightly timid. She took a breath to calm herself.
“I am a mage, I’m new and I work with the SSA to make different potions and other things. Mages use the power of faeries to help use magic so these guys are here to help.” She said as she reached down and picked up a axolotl faced one that was sniffing her waste bin.
“Don’t worry they are relatively harmless.” She added as the creature wiggled in her arms to get free so she set it down on the other side where it couldn’t knock anything over.
“Oh sorry I did not introduce myself I’m Chise Hatori” She walked out from the circle they were forming and offered her hand to the man in front of her. It was strange he reminded her a bit like some faeries she had met but his power seemed different somehow.
