A few months had passed quietly in the west, word had spread quickly of their young king's abdication of the throne and their former lord's return. Many thought there would be changes to the laws that the young king and now again young prince had made, but no such thing occurred. Instead, Sesshomaru was honored by his father for his diligence in protecting and maintaining of the west at such a young age. The young prince had been staying with his mother for a time, and it was thought that he would return to the castle of the west to continue his tutelage on governmental affairs but many were surprised that he decided to live with his hanyou lover.
The prince was currently watching with veiled interest as Inuyasha organized their new kitchen. He would turn this way and that and hesitated several times when placing new dishes in cabinets. His eyes would move back and forth, and he could hear the man mumbling to himself. "No, that's stupid. I'm not gonna work that hard to get a plate. We're not that tall. It’s better to put the unused appliances up there, right? Yeah, that's true." Inuyasha sighed and set what he was holding down before turning and seeing the youkai watching him from the new sofa. His ears flattened some and he blushed at the cool gaze.
"Inuyasha come here." Sesshomaru motioned for him and Inuyasha came over easily, sitting next to him. Without a word the man embraced him and snuggled up to him. Over the past few months, they'd been talking and reconciling a lot. It made the hanyou feel secure. Sesshomaru had taken to noting the man's behaviors after hanyou were thoroughly explained to him. This part of him truly behaved like a youkai, he just needed to work on his temper more than anything. Sesshomaru tilted his head and slowly kissed his boyfriend, returning the embrace. "I'll never understand how you're able to function like this..."
Inuyasha sighed, "Like I told you before, I've gotten used to it. Like, it's complicated but we're only really two different people when something serious is happening or like…when we disagree…. Usually the other me just sorta floats...like...I don't know how to really explain it. I guess...we become each other’s youkai sorta. You know how youkai can lose control of their inner beast? I think we become that...but we'll never know until someone studies us."
"You're going to school, but you haven’t decided what for. Maybe that can be something you do. I'm sure other half-demons would feel more comfortable with someone similar to themselves." Sesshomaru suggested.
Inuyasha considered Sesshomaru's idea. It was a good one. He didn't know what he wanted to study anyway so why not? Inuyasha nodded before looking at the lord, "Okay, but are you gonna get off your lazy ass and help? Or just sit here looking pretty?"
Sesshomaru rolled his eyes at the statement and stood, "We wouldn't have to do this if you'd let the servants handle it."
"Nope nope, it's a part of the new apartment experience." Inuyasha shook his head as they continued to organize the kitchen.
6 hours later, their new condo was neat and organized and servants were hauling all of the trash and recycling. Inuyasha didn't want servants in their condo but compromised with Sesshomaru about a few things. Their chef wouldn't be cooking all of their meals, and the servants would come to clean and do laundry once a week. Sesshomaru had learned that complaining only gave Inuyasha more reasons to call him a princess so he stopped and agreed to learn more about what living like a normal person was like. Their condo had 3 bedrooms and an office.
Inuyasha watched as the servants bowed and left their new home. He hadn't expected Sesshomaru to agree to live with him as readily as he did, considering how he'd grown up. The lord locked the door behind them and narrowed his eyes at his boyfriend. Looking the young man up and down before slowly stalking over. They had a new and comfortable bed he wanted to test, and he needed his partner in crime for that. Inuyasha met his eyes with interest as the lord youki wrapped his arm around him, signaling the hanyou to his intentions. Inuyasha smirked, taking a step back slowly. A low growl bubbled in the lord’s throat, warning him. Inuyasha chuckled and allowed himself to be seized and carried to their new bedroom. Inuyasha was a bit nervous as this was their first time in months. They had never had much time alone considering Inuyasha was avoiding the castle and was still living with friends. A sharp rap at their door stopped them before they even began. Inuyasha could laugh at their timing. Sesshomaru sat on their bed looking furious as Inuyasha went to answer the door.
““Congratulations!”” His amalgamation of friends shouted cheerfully. There were many people that had come and Inuyasha was surprised at some of the faces he saw. There was the human group, which consisted of Kagome, Miroku, and Sango. Then some of his youkai friends Kouga, Ayame, and surprisingly enough Itoshi and Hatsuo. He knew they didn’t approve of the prince after everything that had gone down but they respected him and his decisions. Even a few of his half-demon friends had come. He’d known a lot of them were nervous around youkai and humans who weren’t associated with Tilt-in but he was happy they had come. He assumed they would be nervous near Sesshomaru but trusted him enough to come and celebrate with him. Everyone piled into their large home in awe.
“Wow, Yaya, how much are you paying for this place?” Itoshi asked in awe. He knew Inuyasha had been given a large amount of money, but he didn’t know it was to this scale.
“Oh, I bought the whole building. Mi-chan has been talking to me about investing, so all the lower floors are apartments and commercial space that I’m renting out for…passive income…I think that’s what he said.” Inuyasha explained. Miroku nodded in approval from where he stood.
“Where’s your ice princess?” Hatsuo asked, his nose picking up his strong scent.
“In our room, he should be out in a sec.” Inuyasha looked down the hall at their door.
His friends set their housewarming gifts on the table, there was a large amount of alcohol for both humans and youkai. “You ready for your shots muttface? Go get Lord Sesshomaru, we gotta bless the house!” Kouga said with a grin, opening the disposable shot glasses and the various alcohol.
Inuyasha smirked and made his way back to his bedroom, when he opened the door Sesshomaru glared at him. “What? I forgot they were coming.”
“You could have also informed me.” Sesshomaru said. Inuyasha couldn’t help but smirk at the pouting prince.
“It’s a tradition, and I forgot about it. I’m sorry.” Inuyasha grabbed the man’s clawed hand, “Come on, come take shots with me and I’ll blow you later.” Sesshomaru said nothing and allowed himself to be guided. When they returned, Kouga had 50 shots laid out on their kitchen island. “Okay, so, you know some of them already, but these are the twins Roku and Dai, this is Shion.” The twins waved quietly, and Shion greeted the lord from behind them. Inuyasha then turned his attention to his brothers, “These are my annoying older brothers, Itoshi and Hatsuo. Itoi and Haha.” The two bristled at the childhood nicknames and only Hatsuo greeted the lord while Itoshi scoffed. Inuyasha noted how tense the atmosphere had gotten with the lord’s appearance. He took a deep breath and sighed. “Okay, let’s take those shots.” Everyone gathered around the table grabbing the appropriate alcohol for themselves. Inuyasha’s friend group held their drinks up high, Kagome held juice because she wasn’t old enough to drink yet. Inuyasha held his up high as well and gestured for Sesshomaru to do the same. Inuyasha grabbed another shot and poured it on the ground.
Sesshomaru watched in confusion and Kouga began speaking, “Usually, we would completely trash the new apartment but Inuyasha told me Lord Sesshomaru would have his panties in a twist if we did that.” Many groans were heard around the room, “So we’ll forgo that part of the tradition and just get super fucked up!” What started as a Hazukiikka tradition slowly seeped into Tilt-in culture and now many blessed their homes this way, mainly because it was fun. The group cheered happily, Kagome looking just as confused as Sesshomaru felt. “Inuyasha has already given the house the first drink, shall we give it another!?”
“”Another!”” The group chorused, startling the two who were clueless, though only Kagome showed it.
Inuyasha picked up another shot and poured it on the floor. “You two! May this place treat you well. May it bring you peace!” Kouga shouted happily.
““Cheers!”” Inuyasha took his shot and gestured for Sesshomaru to do the same.
“May this house bring you joy and shelter you from the world!” Hatsuo shouted with a mad grin.
““Cheers!”” They took another shot.
“May this house bring you memories, not ever forgotten.” Itoshi yelled pounding his chest. It wasn’t often that they got to do this particular Hazukiikka tradition.
““Cheers!”” Inuyasha shuddered after a particularly disgusting shot, looking and seeing his unaffected mate.
“May it keep you warm.” Sango cheered.
““Cheers!”” Sesshomaru couldn’t believe what this had quickly become. Inuyasha’s friends were quite rowdy.
“May your secrets never leave these walls!” Miroku added delightedly.
““Cheers!”” Inuyasha felt his gag reflex go but he held it down. The youkai liquor burning through him, making him very warm.
Shion quietly touched Inuyasha’s back, “May it keep you centered.” He whispered.
“”Cheers!”” This time Sesshomaru gagged a bit and Kouga smugly chimed, “Don’t throw up Lord Sesshomaru. You’ll mess up the blessing, then we’ll have to burn it to the ground.
“Ugh, please don’t throw up Sess.” Inuyasha grimaced thinking about the apartment he had before his last. The shot hit his throat weird and everything came up, the celebration was instantly over and they covered the building in alcohol before lighting it up. Inuyasha was so upset that day. Sesshomaru, on the other hand, looked at them as if they’d gone mad. Had they really burned buildings down because of such a thing?
Dai and Roku touched Inuyasha’s back as well, “May it bring you balance.”
““Cheers!”” Inuyasha and Sesshomaru clinked the plastic shot glasses and downed them.
There was a lull and Sesshomaru was feeling relieved until Inuyasha looked over at him with a smile, “May it bring us happiness.”
““Cheers!”” Two more shots were taken.
“The people who live here have to say something too, then it’s over.” Inuyasha explained.
Everyone looked at Sesshomaru expectantly. Unfortunately, Inuyasha had neglected informing him of this particular tradition. It was a moment before he finally spoke, “May it bring us closer together.”
““Cheers! Cheers! Cheers!”” His friends shouted, taking their long-held shots.
Soon the party broke away from the island as his friends played music and enjoyed their time together. Sesshomaru sat in a stool and watched Inuyasha interact with his friends, as the alcohol started to run its course. He wondered what that felt like, what having true friends felt like. His eyes narrowed when he saw the way the Shion character was holding Inuyasha’s hand. He could feel his inner beast becoming angered at the closeness until Inuyasha shook him off, “Come on Shion, he’s not gonna fucking bite you.”
Shion looked over at the lord flinching severely when they made eye contact. “But he’s so scary…” He whined, holding Inuyasha’s hand once more.
Inuyasha sighed, “Who’s the strongest person you know?” He asked the man suddenly.
“…you…” Shion answered sheepishly.
“Alright, and do you trust me?”
“…yeah.”
“Okay, he’s not gonna hurt you or anyone so calm the fuck down. You’re starting to piss me off.” Inuyasha scolded.
“O-okay…s-sorry…” Shion apologized clutching his hands together and looking at his feet.
Inuyasha sighed and patted his head, “You say you trust me, so why do you think I’d ever put you in a dangerous situation?”
Shion hugged him suddenly, this side of him wasn’t very good at dealing with Shion. He was mostly human and very shy; they became friends when Inuyasha saved him from being harassed at his animal rescue by those who didn’t belong to the underground proper. The half-demon had been attached to him ever since. Inuyasha just patted his back like his other self-recommended. This Inuyasha preferred the rough youkai instead. He was way easier to deal with when his youkai was in charge. Inuyasha had always been surprised that his youkai didn’t bully him out of the way all the time. Though he knew most human dominant hanyou were very kind to themselves while the opposite was typically true in the reverse, as in Naraku’s case.
He was released when Dai and Roku pried him from Inuyasha, who then went and sat with Sesshomaru who was merely watching everyone. They were really starting to feel the shots, Inuyasha was worse off than Sesshomaru as he leaned heavily on the man. Kouga was walking around making everyone take shots and Inuyasha nearly gagged at the thought. The strong youkai liquor hitting him harder with every moment.
Soon a song started playing which made the group get loud and Inuyasha stood up quickly to go drunkenly dance with his friends. Sesshomaru watched with a slight smile as Inuyasha enjoyed himself. “I really hate that he’s with you.” Sesshomaru turned slowly and set a drunk hard glare on Hatsuo. His five tails swaying playfully behind him. “I wonder how long before you hurt him again.” He grinned into his mixed drink.
Sesshomaru began growling lowly at him. The alcohol loosening his inhibitions. “He’s always had such a terrible taste in people. Remember the priestess.” Itoshi added. Hatsuo looked like a light bulb had gone off as he nodded, remembering how annoyed Inuyasha had been at the time with their prying. “Little puppy has a penchant for getting hurt, huh Haha?” Hatsuo grinned slyly.
“Listen Lord Sesshomaru, all we’re doing is telling you he has bad taste and low standards, so try not to fuck it up more.” Hatsuo commented his grin turning cheshire.
“Nah, do fuck up. So, we can set the castle on fire when he’s upset to make him feel better.” Itoshi and Hatsuo clinked their glasses and drank.
“He’ll be my mate before the end of the year.” Sesshomaru stated firmly, surprising the two.
“I’ll bow my head if that happens.” Itoshi laughed.
“Same!” Hatsuo and he high fived. Sesshomaru could only ponder their boldness.
The party lasted well into the morning, their home was a mess and people were still heavily drunk. Inuyasha was lying in their bed passed out. Sesshomaru watched as the friends were gathered by Miroku’s people. “Let Inuyasha know I’ll make sure everyone get’s home safe.” Kagome spoke as she was the last one out of the door. Sesshomaru closed it and looked at the state of his new home with a sigh. He headed back to their room but there was another knock at the door. He didn’t think he’d ever get used to not having his visitors greeted in his stead. It didn’t help that he couldn’t smell through the door. Looking through the peephole he was surprised to see her.
He opened the door and allowed her in, “Hello mother.”
Tsukihime smiled at her son but looked at the state of their home, “Your first night was…rough?”
Sesshomaru explained to his mother what had taken place last night and explained that Inuyasha was currently passed out in their bedroom. She nodded her understanding. “It is good that he has friends who want to celebrate his life changes.” Tsukihime handed him the small box in her hands. “It is a housewarming gift; I’m told they’re popular amongst humans so I thought Inuyasha would appreciate it.” With that she stood to leave but Sesshomaru stopped her.
“Mother.” She turned to him with a curious look in her eye, “Thank you, not only for this but for everything. I truly appreciate it.”
Such a lovely smiled graced her face that Sesshomaru was frozen for a moment. “Your welcome my dear pup. I’ll always help you where I can.” She caressed his face and rubbed his markings that matched her own. “I’ll be in my palace should you need anything.” With that she exited the building and went back to her home. Sesshomaru locked the door and joined his boyfriend in bed. The hanyou peacefully slept as the alcohol worked its way out of his system.

The following day, Inuyasha woke around noon to kisses and a well-dressed Sesshomaru. “Do you have to leave?” He asked, turning over and hugging a pillow tightly.
“Yes, though I would be pleased if you would join me.” Sesshomaru asked, knowing how the man felt about going to the castle.
“No.” Inuyasha said firmly.
Sesshomaru set on the bed next to him and stroked his soft hair. He knew that Inuyasha didn’t want to go to the castle because of their father. Touga wanted to build a relationship with Inuyasha but the hanyou was adamant about not seeing him or giving him a chance. “What if you got syrupy hashbrowns?” Inuyasha looked at him but looked away again. “Would you like to visit my mother’s palace then?”
Inuyasha’s ears perked up immediately and then he sat up, “Fine…but only to see Tsukihime...and maybe hashbrowns…” He’d never been to her palace and wanted to see the meeting point of his ancestors. He showered and dressed quickly, and they left the apartment. There was a limo waiting for them outside to take them to the castle quickly. Sesshomaru admired Inuyasha as he watched the city go by out of the window. While they’d reconciled, they were still regaining the closeness that they’d once shared. He longed for that. When they arrived, they were greeted by Menou and Jaken. Jaken began to grumble and whine about Sesshomaru while glaring at Inuyasha who gave a look that dared the toad to say something disrespectful. They went to Sesshomaru’s office, Inuyasha sat and listened with disinterest and was left alone when Sesshomaru went for a meeting with Touga and his new advisers. Inuyasha zoned out as he sat at Sesshomaru’s desk, he was born and thinking about his boyfriend was making him increasingly horny.
He was becoming increasingly annoyed as the meeting was taking forever, and he was promised syrupy hash browns and a trip to Tsukihime’s palace. It was hard not thinking about the lord and he rubbed his stiff cock to relieve some of the pressure that was building, eventually having to adjust it to a more comfortable position. He sighed loudly, laying his head on Sesshomaru’s desk and closing his tired eyes. “Things still feel really awkward.” He whispered to himself, feeling his other half agree. He dozed off for the better part of an hour and woke to the feel of a hand running through his hair. “Are you done?”
“Yes, we can go now if you wish.” Sesshomaru spoke softly.
“Mmhm.” Inuyasha tilted his head towards Sesshomaru’s hand. It felt nice and soothing.
“You must wake if we are to depart soon.” Sesshomaru stated after a bit.
Inuyasha sighed and sat up, looking up at the man through his sleepy eyes. Sesshomaru leaned down and kissed his inviting mouth gently. Inuyasha growled lowly and deepened the kiss. Standing as Sesshomaru rose. With an arm around Sesshomaru’s neck and the man’s wrapped firmly around his waist their kiss became heated. Inuyasha felt the blood return to his flaccid cock quickly as he rubbed against Sesshomaru. Inuyasha slowly dragged his hands down Sesshomaru’s chest all the way to his waist. The youkai’s body was exquisite. Inuyasha bit his lip and his eyes flashed with youki. Sesshomaru let out a sharp breath as Inuyasha began unbuckling his belt and freeing his hardening cock. The lord picked him up suddenly, setting him on the edge of his desk. Inuyasha growled happily as he freed his own straining cock. Sesshomaru attacked his neck as Inuyasha began to rub them together. The youkai nipped and sucked his neck in the places that he liked. His remaining hand travelling up his black shirt to the dark nipples below it. He rubbed and pinched causing Inuyasha to gasp and moan at the added sensations.
The youkai prince found it frustrating to not have his other arm as he wanted to touch the hanyou more than what he was able to currently. “Just like that Inuyasha.” Sesshomaru groaned in his ear, as his hand tightened, and his strokes became firmer. Sesshomaru began to rock in his hand, sliding against Inuyasha’s cock with ease as pre cum leaked from the tip of his straining manhood as he was getting closer to his end. Sesshomaru brought his hand around the other side as they stroked together. Inuyasha leaned back on the desk with a whine of delight. They didn’t have the time, but he really wanted Sesshomaru to fuck him. This would simply have to do. Inuyasha’s fangs elongated and his eyes flashed red as he came. Covering them with his cum, twitching and jerking as Sesshomaru stroked until he came as well. They caught their breath slowly, Inuyasha skillfully taking the lord’s breath away with another heated kiss.
“We should shower.” Inuyasha said through his labored breathing. The last thing he wanted Tsukihime commenting on was them smelling of sex. Luckily, Inuyasha still had many clothes remaining in the castle as they showered quickly. Inuyasha watched as Sesshomaru struggled with his button up with a frown. That was another thing that made this so difficult. He’d hurt Sesshomaru quite terribly, the man’s whole life had to change because of his missing appendage. He came over quietly and moved his hand out of the way before buttoning the buttons himself. He then tied his tie, all while never meeting the lords gaze. By the time he finished, his ears were pinned to his head and a deep frown marred his face. “I’m really sorry…” He whispered.
“You have nothing to apologize for. I was not in my right mind and could have killed you…it will grow back eventually.” Sesshomaru stated calmly. “Shall we eat first or go to the sky palace?” Inuyasha’s stomach was sure to voice its opinion quickly and loudly. Sesshomaru smirked and held his arm out for Inuyasha to take. Together they walked through the halls to a small dining room where they were served quickly. They enjoyed a quiet meal before going to the lily garden to fly to Tsukihime’s palace.
However, Inuyasha’s biggest gripe with the castle decided to show his ugly mug. “Inuyasha’s in the castle? I’ve been wanting to speak to you.” Inuyasha’s calm expression became a glare. His claws dug into his palms drawing blood and he growled. “All I wish to do is speak to you and yet you still show me such hostility. I am your father; I deserve at least one civil conversation do I not?”
“For the last fucking time, you are NOT my fucking father!” Inuyasha growled, getting annoyed. “Sesshomaru I want to leave now.” Inuyasha was becoming increasingly annoyed within Touga’s presence. Sesshomaru held in a sigh and bowed to his father slightly before steeling his arm around Inuyasha. “I already told you my conditions, it’s not my fault you’re incompetent.” Sesshomaru looked down at Inuyasha before looking at his father, wondering what he was talking about. They took off through a window as Inuyasha was becoming increasingly agitated with their father. It took a while but by the time they were landing at the sky palace Inuyasha had calmed significantly. They stood in the gardens a while, Inuyasha looking at the details of Sesshomaru’s clothing.
“Would you like to talk about it?” Sesshomaru asked after a moment. “His very presence angers you so, I would like to understand the reasons behind it.”
Inuyasha let out a heavy sigh before looking up at him. His eyes glazed over for a moment before he clicked his tongue and muttered about human bastards. “He killed the only person who gave a shit about me after my mom died. Is that enough?” He snapped sharply, earning a sting from his other half, “Hey if you don’t like it why don’t you fuckin’ explain it like I asked you to.” He growled to himself.
Sesshomaru said nothing and watched him argue with himself under his breath. “I know you feel that way and you feel very strongly about it, however…I would ask that you place yourself in his shoes.” Inuyasha’s eyes flashed red and he bared his teeth at his boyfriend in increasingly rising anger. Before he could speak Sesshomaru continued, “You are the single most powerful entity in a nation. You have just sired a half-demon child set to be scorned for the rest of their life. You do not understand anything about humans, but you do know youkai. So, you, who is a pack demon, swallow your inner beast and leave the child in the care of their mother. This is best, away from dangerous youkai, and no target on the child’s back. However, being that you have no human in your court you didn’t realize how dangerous they can actually be. Why would you be worried about humans? You’re a daiyoukai whom none could ever hope of defeating. You don’t think about things like that, those things don’t affect you. You sit on a throne…correct? Your child is not a daiyoukai, your child is a small half-demon pup, who you lose track of because of their heinous human family. So, what do you do? Do you alert the whole world that you’ve lost your half-demon child and hope none of your enemies kill them or use them against you and the west? Or do you quietly search for them, create laws meant to protect and absolve them?” Inuyasha’s lips were pursed into a thin line as he stared at him. “I can think of several of his enemies that would have skinned you alive Inuyasha. Several of them that would have loved to torture and toy with his child, several of which had tried to do the same to this Sesshomaru.” Inuyasha broke their eye contact and looked off to the side, his anger and indignation rising as his other half coached him into controlling himself.
“You have all the right to be angry with him Inuyasha. To hate and curse his name…however…to a point I believe you were much safer this way. If the advisers couldn’t be trusted, how could father trust servants, tutors, anyone? There was no way he could take a small pup into battle, nor could I even care for you at all times, and what of your mother?” A low warning growl started in Inuyasha throat as he glared at Sesshomaru. His mother was a touchy subject, and the last thing anyone, especially Sesshomaru, would do, was insult her. “Life in a youkai palace would not have been healthy for her. Should he have locked her away? Locked you both away and hid you from the world until your abilities manifested? Could she have protected you from the multitude of assassins sent after me at that age?” Sesshomaru was watching Inuyasha’s twitching face and flashing eyes, knowing that he was walking through a minefield right now. “As for…Ryuukotsusei…someone who was notorious for his hatred of the inu of the west. To hear, that one of your greatest enemies had your child…what would you have done? Your enemy could be beating your child, selling them for sex, anything, but you don’t know. Because you haven’t been able to find your child for 100 years. Your weak little half-demon pup. Your child who might not even be alive anymore. Your child’s criminal record being the only confirmation that they still lived. Inuyasha…I would have killed him too…to save my child…to save you even.” Sesshomaru’s hand came to gently rest on his cheek. His eyes flashing as his growling deepened, becoming more threatening, challenging Sesshomaru’s own. The lord figured this was probably as far as he could go with this conversation. “As you said Inuyasha, it’s hard to believe a demon would simply abandon a pup, more so for inuyoukai. Be angry, curse his name, scorn him, do what you feel as though you need to do, but remember, there are certain things in this world that even daiyoukai cannot do.” Sesshomaru leaned down and kissed his snarling face, surprised that Inuyasha hadn’t bitten him but he needed to take some of the tension from the conversation. “I do not wish to upset you Inuyasha, but I tire of such tense atmospheres. I don’t expect you to accept him, nor do I expect you to accept his apologies…I myself do not believe I am ready to fully accept them. However…I would just like you to keep in mind that there is a lot we all must atone for.” With that Sesshomaru turned sharply and headed into the sky palace leaving Inuyasha standing alone feeling hurt and angry.
Inuyasha’s hands were clenched tightly into fists. His chest hurt. In a way, it felt like Sesshomaru was on the other man’s side but his human half repeatedly told him that wasn’t the case. That they themselves were sitting on a throne and not looking at the bigger picture. His human half knew for a fact his youkai was the one who was most hurt by their father’s absence, though they both hurt at the lost of Ryuukotsusei. No one understood except the Hazukiikka. Ryuukotsusei never asked him to do anything, never raised his hand against him, he never did anything that indicated that he wanted to use Inuyasha. Ryuukotsusei didn’t send the hanyou children and the rare children back because of how they were mistreated in the flawed system. He felt his eyes sting as he stood looking at the ground. The least Sesshomaru could have done after throwing shit in his face was hug him tightly. It’d been a long time since he really wanted someone to hug him after such a tense conversation. He felt a few tears escape his eyes. There had been a time when he was young, that he desperately wanted to know about his youkai half. He wanted to know who his father was, wanted to know where he was, if he had any siblings, what they were like…if…they would accept him…
When he’d been around 100, he, Hatsuo, and Itoshi compiled a list of shiro inu who could possibly be his father. Most were single and lived the closest to the west. They hadn’t even considered the royal family but look at him now. A bastard prince of the west. Fun. Inuyasha didn’t know how long he sat in the garden looking at the sky and thinking. His life was too complicated to be real. He didn’t want to deal with this anymore. He wanted to go home and sleep for a week, he didn’t even want to see Tsukihime anymore. He felt like he might cry if he saw her right now and he didn’t want to cry anymore. “I should’ve just never been born…” He muttered to himself, feeling long since forgotten thoughts coming back to him.

Tsukihime was standing on a high roof looking down at the half-demon who sniffled to himself. She looked over at her son with a disappointed look in her eyes, both having heard what the young man said about himself. She gestured for her son to follow her. They walked through the halls quietly before she finally spoke. “Inuyasha has had a really difficult life Sesshomaru. While he may seem fine, there is no doubt several layers of trauma. Most of which he’s had to confront over the last several months. You cannot expect him to handle such things as you would.” She sighed. There had been so much going on this last year that she didn’t know what she could do for everyone.
“Was there truly a way for father to bring Inuyasha into the castle?” Sesshomaru asked quietly.
“I do not know…the only solution I myself could think of was to take him from his mother and leave him here, in the sky palace.” She answered, she herself thinking of possible avenues for the pup. While she would have been angry, she wouldn’t have harmed the child. Probably just assigned someone to look after him until she came around. “However, what has been done is done. We must find a way forward from here.” Sesshomaru nodded quietly.
When they arrived to the garden Inuyasha had been left in he was nowhere to be found. Sesshomaru tilted his head up slightly, catching his scent and leading the way. Their search lead them to the garden on the other side, where the demon tree Bakusen’O resided. Inuyasha was looking at the tree with fascination. Sesshomaru couldn’t help the smirk that found his mouth, it was a cute reaction. Inuyasha responded to the tree and then frowned, a few tears falling from his eyes. The two inu daiyoukai could only guess at what the tree and Inuyasha were discussing. The tree had been adviser to many inuyoukai throughout the years. The only time Tsukihime having heard its voice being when Touga had taken Sesshomaru from her. It only spoke when it was completely necessary. It had put a strong barrier up that was blocking the sound and when Sesshomaru stepped forward he was deflected. He looked angered and frightened until Tsukihime placed a hand on his shoulder. “The demon tree Bakusen’O has guided shiro inu for thousands of years my pup. Inuyasha is perfectly safe. The tree only speaks when we need him most.” She grabbed his arms and led the reluctant shiro inu away so that Inuyasha was not disturbed.
