Inuyasha Modern Yakuza AU ideas

(obviously tw for violence, and also suggested attempted sexual assault) 

The Inu Gang (I’m just calling them that for now) Headed by Sesshomaru after his late father passed away. The front of the whole gang is a restaurant called simply, The West, and it has a literal underground casino where most of the actual business is conducted. Before his death, Taishou separated from his first wife, though they remained steady business partners and he fell in love with a civilian, a wealthy business mans daughter. At this point he left most of the business to Kimi (that’s just what I’m gonna call Sesshomaru’s mother) as he pursued Izayoi. The two were planning to build a family together until Taishou was killed in a scuffle with a rival gang leader. Izayoi had a child out of wedlock and her family sent her to live in a country home out of the public eye because of the shame of it all. They lived in relative happiness until Izayoi suddenly fell ill and passed away. Inuyasha ran away from the grandparents that were going to force him into being an uptight yes man in their company and is now what most people would consider a “yanki” living how he wants getting by with the help of some of his fathers friends. Sesshomaru is now of age and the head of the family and though he does not fear any of his mean trying to over throw him with Inuyasha at the head, he hates the idea of his father leaving his family and wants nothing to do with his half brother.

That’s the basic set up I guess?? I don’t know how everyone would fit in, but I encourage input on this idea 100000%. Let me know what you guys think, if you’d want to join this AU, things like that.  Here are some other little bullet points I’ve thought about (mostly Rin, because...you know, she’s my muse)

Rin runs into Sesshomaru for the first time after he’s badly injured in a fight that arouse between him and Inuyasha. She’s an orphan who had runaway from the home she was boarding in stumbled upon him in an alley. She couldn’t help him much, but she did run and get the attention of Jaken, Sesshomaru’s right hand man who was waiting by car at the mouth of the alley before running away in case she was taken back to the orphanage. 

The second time they met it was behind the restaurant, The West. Rin was being cornered by some members of a gang who had crossed over their territory lines and were attempting some rather unpleasant advances.  Sesshomaru, remembering the girl from before and dispatched the assailants, but Rin was wounded in the scuffle and Sesshomaru brought her into the restaurant and had his clansmen nurse her back to health. Somehow she just....stuck around afterwards and became an honorary clansman, even learning the fine art of knife wielding, eventually becoming a handy assassin because who suspects such a nice, sweet little girl to slit your throat?

“Come on, old friend. Are you really going to be that harsh? I’m hurt.” The kitsune smiled and rested his hands in his hips. He shouldn’t be playing games with the Lord of the West, now that he have the attention of the demon he should just get to the point. 

“I have this special job” Kurama said, “Perhaps you could be interested.”

      ❝ Lord Sesshomaru , I made you this !  ❞ rin said as she pulled the flower crown out from behind her back, she teetered on the balls of her feet. as she present the gift to the lord, she only hopped he liked it. jaken had told her earlier that ‘ the great lord of the west, would have nothing to do with your silly gifts ! ‘ but rin believed otherwise and she was so excited for him to return, so she could present it to him. the little girl had worked extremely hard on it, to make it perfect just as the lord sesshomaru was. her little fingers sore and one had got cut, but she did not cry, for she is strong.   ❝ master jaken said that you would not like it, but i believed you would !  ❞ she said with a big smile, as her little fingers held the well crafted flower crown. fit for a king.   // @shiroigetsu .

Golden irises glance the other up and down. He wasn't used to seeing such a specimen. "I see even the fish are abandoning the sea--"

Whoever the stranger before him was, he was otherworldly... Ironic, given he looked much more normal compared to Kisame. Still, the shark-man smiled. “And you seem like the wolf that’s fled from the deep forest... But I was born on land, so perhaps my assumptions are wrong as well.”

Rin’s lips arched into a smile even as her heart raced in her chest at the closeness between them. She didn’t think he’d ever not have this effect on her, no matter how many years passed between them. He was so otherworldly she sometimes got lost in just looking at him, and the fact that he’d picked her, well, she thanked whatever fates that had decided to cross their paths every morning before she opened her eyes to begin her day and every night before she closed them again. She circled her own arms around him and finally closed the distance between them, happily kissing him. It wasn’t a particularly long kiss, or heated, but it was full of all the love she had for him all the same.

@shiroigetsu Christmas thread [x]

She had been so excited about Christmas this year. Celebrating it with Sesshomaru instead of alone at the orphanage was something she’d looked forward to for months. She’d been excited to pick out her new red velvet dress (which she couldn’t stop twirling in) and she'd even found a bit of holly to put in her hair. Rin wanted everything to be perfect this year, and seeing Sesshomaru smile would really put the cherry on top of it all. She pouted for a moment but then her smile was back.

“It would just make things happier is all,” she said. Rin knew Sesshomaru wasn’t a smiler by nature, but it was their first Christmas together and she wanted to make as many happy memories as she could.

The demons - Youkai, he corrects himself - around here are low leveled, for the most part, but remain timid. He initially intends to purge the small village of all evil entities and establish it as his new base in his conquest. After a few days, however, he learns things are not so simple. The youkai are timid yes, but beyond what he is used to. They actively avoid all humans, as though the merest contact with one might shatter their existence. Koumei knows this would be the case had he successfully cleansed the area but...

A week into their stay in the village, he finally understands why the local youkai live in such fear.

He’s bathing in a nearby river, completely defenseless, when he feels a powerful surge of energy. He knows immediately that the source is a formidable Youkai, and his blood runs cold. He’s given little time to react before he hears a splash behind him, and he abruptly turns, face pale, to face his new enemy-

But he stops.

His breath hitches.

The man - Youkai, he once more corrects himself - Radiates an ethereality he’s only ever seen in paintings. Silver hair drapes around the creature like a veil, and his skin is smooth, marble-like, and interrupted only by a few colorful markings- the only clear visual indicator that this individual is not human.

Koumei tenses with an odd, flustered mix of awe and fear, trying to shift away, but stopping when he finds the water growing deeper. Every instinct is telling him to run; the weight of this demonic strength is too much for even him, and were they to fight, he doubts he would last even a few minutes- Yet...

He bites his lip and speaks. “-So... Youkai take baths too? Interesting.”
