"My dearest son, is there anything you'd like to tell your poor, lonely mother ?"

Kikyou had certainly not anticipated the other's course of actions. Her eyes had widened slightly when he leapt into the water, only to soften quickly when she realized why. A soft and gentle smile touched her lips.

While it would appear silly to others, the context truly did make her heart ache. For beneath all the bravado and words, was just a young boy who wanted nothing more than to fit in with others. To be cherished, appreciated and not met with hatred.

Reaching out, a hand gently touched his cheek.

"You already shine, Inuyasha. Just like the shell, it is others who need to perceive the value and take the time to wash off the mud. The mud and the dirt does not change the value of the shell. The shell was always an amazing shell..just like you were always amazing." In other words, people needed to put aside their biases and preconceived notions to truly see the man before her.

"Do you understand what I am saying ? If people are to see the true you, they need to take a chance. They need to cast aside their judgement and then..they will realize just what they have been missing."

🌙 “Do my eyes deceive me? Unlikely. There should not be a tear in the dimensions..and yet, here you are. How might that be, my dearest husband?”

🌸 “It seems things are quite lively.” Hisana smiled as she sipped her tea. “I am glad to hear everyone is faring well.”

Solomon pulled out his D.D.D with a small smile. He had a wonderful idea on how to contribute to the dinner tonight. It wasn't fair that everyone was working so hard on making a meal. He wanted to contribute too!

One of the many things that screams parenthood--is randomly attacking your child with affection. Megumi had been sitting quietly at the dinner table, his body language different than usual. A mother knows after all.

So unceremoniously, arms were tossed around the youth as she pulled him into a hug. "My my, someone has such a serious expression. If you don't watch it, your face will get stuck like that permanently.", she teased.
