" you don't know anything. " said @bakyusaiga

" have i touched a sensitive spot, lord sesshomaru? "

sardonic quirk of her eyebrow; she tries to seem nonchalant, yet there is obvious curiosity and interest behind her words. his relationship to the human child is odd to say the least -- why would a creature as powerful as him bother with a weak and vulnerable girl? is it perhaps because even daiyoukai feel something akin to affection, a need to protect?

is she the only one who lacks such emotions? tsk, why would it matter, either ways?

bitterness and envy are a raw bile she has tasted many a time by now.

" i know enough, " she shrugs, folds her arms over her chest and glances at the creature before her, a god among mortals that still may fall to his knees and weep for a human babe, " i know you care for the child. i know you would kill whoever dares harm her, " he has, and he will, and Kagura feels envious, not of the child, but of Sesshomaru himself ( he, who can still experience such pure feelings despite the blood he has shed ), " still, the thing i don't know is ... why? how is that even possible? "

" you always hesitate ." said @bakyusaiga

she knows he speaks of the way she never actually delivers a killing blow ( no matter how easy, or necessary ). she wonders why he has been observing her enough to notice such a pattern - most of all, she wonders why he would care. and most of all, she wonders why it brings an aching pain to her hollow chest; perhaps, where a heart would beat fast and filled with uneasiness at the idea of him paying that much attention to her movements.

she will glance away, a quiet 'hmph' echoes past cherry - painted lips; her only reply to his remark. because it's not a question, but a statement ( he knows, because he has seen it, time and time again ). and Kagura wonders, for a moment, if he already knows the reason, if he will voice it out loud and mock her for it.

have you not the guts to kill, wind witch? how pathetic.

"I don't know what you speak of, " a soft murmur accompanies a shrug of petite shoulders, " the only reason why i would kill is if it were to benefit me. and as it is, i need the hanyou and the miko alive."
