after triple moon, before fighting tournament arc

[enelmord]

[It’s difficult to know how to approach him, after doing what they had done, but “writing” offers something of a buffer. It mitigates the awkwardness.]

Hey. Are you all right?

after getting his cuff back from Tony at the tournament....whoops...

[barkonthetree]

WHO IS THIS WRITING

Re: after triple moon, before fighting tournament arc

[barkonthetree]

[wait there's a name at the tooooooop.

Shit.]

MATTIAS

ohhh my god

[enelmord]

Yes, me. I sent that days ago.

I was starting to think something had happened to you.

[In other words, he was worried. Just a little.]

voice; in the days following the anon post

[peerlesscucumber]

Inuyasha, this is Shen Qingqiu. [ His voice likley makes it obvious but introductions and greetings are important! ] You wanted to know more about who I saw die?

Also voice

[barkonthetree]

[The very second the connection opens:]

What?

[Who the fuck is making this thing screech not once but multiple times in a row? What a horrible song! Pay attention to meeee, pay attention to meeee!!

—oh.]

Eh? You again?

[It's somewhat strange, being arrested out of the blue for a chat. Inuyasha had assumed he could just drop in on the guy sometime when he stopped feeling sorry for himself.]

Oh. Uh...okay.

[He goes silent.


....


......


Well???]

[peerlesscucumber]

[ Wow he's so quiet all of a sudden???

For a moment then, he's also silent, wondering if Inuyasha is going to say... anything else.

Then he doesn't, and Shen Qingqiu raises an eyebrows before speaking himself. ]

... Do you have time to come by where I'm staying today?

[ STILL NOT HAVING THIS CONVERSATION OVER A PHONE he's stubborn about this one ]

henlo

[enelmord]

[The day after this entire mess, Matthias decides he should probably message Inuyasha. Just picture his wolfish ears flattened and his tail between his legs.]

I may have done something extremely stupid yesterday.

I'm telling you this so that you hear it from me first, and not somebody else.

[barkonthetree]

[This already smacks of bad tidings.]

are all yor limbs still on or do I have to go fetch them for you

[enelmord]

It’s nothing like that. I’m fine.

I ran into your brother. He was completely transformed into a wolf, so I didn’t realize it was him at first. I thought maybe a drüskelle was here, and that was his wolf.

Anyway...I lost my head, and now he knows that I’m friends with you.

audio; sometime after june sanguis moon

[anti_altruisms]

Inuyasha. Do you have a moment?

bless

[barkonthetree]

What do you want?

he’s dying inside jsyk

[anti_altruisms]

Does being part-demon come with an enhanced sense of smell?

now I just look like I'm marking my territory, how embarrassing

[enelmord]

[Matthias gives him a day to rest and recover from the ordeal of being abducted. But soon enough he feels compelled to send a message, just to check in. (Truthfully, he had wanted to check in sooner, but he made himself wait.)]

Hey. How are you feeling?

my mom says you can't call here anymore

[barkonthetree]

[One day. He's better, the wounds are closed, but he's still stashed himself away in some secret spot to heal. Better out of the city than in it, as always. He's just well enough to grouse at the message and avoid answering for another half hour.]

shitty

that’s weird I thought your mom was dead

[enelmord]

That’s normal after spending a few days behind bars.

action

[lumberlady]

[It takes Konoha about a week to track Inuyasha down.

In her defense, there had sort of been kidnappings going on. Then she had to actually find him, which, with a sense of smell less keener than a dog's, was not that easy to do in such a wide space. Asking around ended up helping, and she follows the advice of some park regulars about the man in the red clothes to at least narrow down her search radius...

Until there's a centaur at the foot of the tree a certain half-demon is currently occupying, a leaf-wrapped bundle in her hand and both hands on hips. Or. What would be hips on a human woman.]

Inuyasha? Are you up there?

[She totally knows he is.]

Re: action

[barkonthetree]

[He had heard horse hooves long before Konoha had appeared in the gaps of the tree canopy. Inuyasha had frowned. Why would she seek him out? They have nothing more to say to each other. If she wants to...with Sesshomaru, then...that's on her.

And he doesn't want to think about it.]

What do you want?

[He might not want to talk to her but there's also little to fear. If she gets annoying he'll leave.]

[lumberlady]

[Well, she definitely wants to correct a certain very not great miscommunication she's pretty sure happened... But first she needs to lure him down with her other motive. So!]

I brought you something to thank you for helping me before.

[She holds up the bundle to illustrate that she's not lying, and if his nose is keen enough... It's definitely food.]

video, a little after she's started her garden

[evanescent]

[She's busy at work in a patch of dirt, her hair pinned back and expression focused, and when she moves the camera up to her face, she doesn't smile, per se, but the look fades into a sort of careful neutrality.]

Hello?

Inuyasha, right? Are you there?

Video

[barkonthetree]

[This woman?

He wasn't expecting a call. She seemed pretty pissed last time, and he's still sore over it. He'd gone talking on the network under the illusion that it would be like a normal conversation, closed between two people. Turns out it was a free for all. He'd lost his head in front of everyone and Sesshomaru humiliated him. Again.

He debates ignoring it. But call him curious.]

...Yeah?

[He's sprawled on his belly someplace high, hewn from carved stone. City noises blare around him and there's green copper shingles on a turret behind him. It looks a bit like a library, or a parliament building. His chin rests on his one arm and his hair whips with frequent winds.]

video;

[gwenhwyfar]

I need to know something and you're one of the few that will understand...! It's important.

[ Demonic senses suck when it comes to alcohol tolerance. ]

Have you ever been drunk?

[barkonthetree]

((technically hiatused until the 6th, will be spotty))

[Uh...What the fuck?]

What the fuck?

[Squinting into the camera, nose wrinkled.]

Why do you care?

[enelmord]

Inuyasha. Nina is here. I saw her yesterday.

[A simple message that belies how complicated the matter is.]

[barkonthetree]

[Yesterday.

Funny, how instantly his gut dropped out of his body. He's blank and thoughtless, a paper puppet caught in the thrall of the cuff's glaring screen.

He hasn't been forthright, either. Not that they'd sought each other out since that blistering Sanguis moon. Not once had he crossed paths with Matthias since she came, and he'd put off confessing to either of them. He'd lose one, or both.

Now it was all but guaranteed.]

So is Kagome.
