A/N: My OC Harrison Fidget is not intended to be offensive, nor is he intended to be a stereotype. I'm a proud member of the GLBT community and I based him off the many drag queens I've had the honor of meeting, may their glitter sparkle forever. Also, I have no idea if Miroku's father is ever given a name, so I named him after two characters from two of my favorite animes...can anyone tell me where I got these names???
Later that afternoon found the three of us waiting at the terminal, waiting for Harrison Fidget's arrival. Remarkably InuYasha and Sesshoumaru had been almost civil to each other on the way to the airport and I was grateful for the reprieve, which was soon shattered by a loud voice coming from inside the security gates.
“Ta-ta Rose! You and Earl have a fabulous time at the hot springs! So lovely to have met you darlings!"
With a final wave at an elderly human couple a handsome black-clad youkai emerged and began walking toward us. His black hair was pulled back into a jaunty ponytail except for a single piece that escaped to fall on his jade-green markings, three whisker-like slashes of color on each cheek that perfectly matched the shade of his eyes. He stopped in front of us, smiling slightly.
“So these must be the sons of the Inu no Taisho. I should've guessed that old dog would produce something so...remarkable,” he said with a seductive purr, turning to Sesshoumaru and raising a hand to stroke the taiyoukai's face. Apparently the rumors about the book dealer's sexuality had been correct, if the lust-filled stare he was aiming at the elder Taisho brother were any indication.
With lightning speed Sesshoumaru grabbed his wrist in what had to be a bone-crushing grip, although the neko showed no pain whatsoever. “Remove your hand from this Sesshoumaru's person at once, cat, or I will remove it from your body,” he snarled, tossing the hand away from him in disgust.
“Playing hard to get. I like that,” smiled the neko, not put out in the least. “Oh MY Gods! Where are my manners? I forgot to introduce myself. Harrison Fidget, call me Fidget.”
I bowed politely. “My name is Miroku, pleased to meet you.” I looked expectantly at InuYasha, but he was too busy gaping open-mouthed at Fidget to say anything on his own behalf. “This is InuYasha,” I continued, rolling my eyes at my companion, “and I believe you've already met Sesshoumaru.”
“Sesshoumaru...lovely,” said Fidget, giving the taiyoukai a none-too-subtle once-over. “Well, let's get moving shall we, I'm dying to be back out in the sunshine.”
“So what're you doing in town?” I asked after we visited the baggage claim and got everything loaded into InuYasha's car.
Fidget smiled. “I'm here to help the Inu no Taisho with a recent acquisition of his. Seems he stumbled upon an ancient jewel that could prove to be quite interesting, and he wanted a second opinion from someone he can trust. Of course, it doesn't hurt if that someone is also an expert in this particular area of study.”
“Wait a minute,” said InuYasha, taking his eyes completely off the road he was driving on. “What exactly do you mean 'this area of study?' I thought you ran a bookstore or something.”
“I do, but I have a very, shall we say, specialized, practice. I deal in ancient texts, primarily those involving artifacts and curse-breaking.”
My ears immediately perked up at the mention of curse-breaking. “I don't suppose you've had much luck with the, uh, ya know, curses,” I stuttered.
“Like the one on your hand for example?” he asked, chuckling at my shocked expression. “I sensed it as soon as I saw you. That's a wicked one, no mistake. I'll take a better look at it once we're at the Taisho's mansion. In the meantime though, you can fill me in on what your piece of human ass is doing running around with youkai. Not that I have anything against humans, mind you, I just love a juicy piece of gossip.”
“What about hanyou?” cut in InuYasha harshly. “Got a problem with filthy half-breeds?”
Fidget smiled slightly, reaching over to stroke one of InuYasha's fluffy white ears. “Never have and never will. Got a problem with feline queens?”
“Keh. No way. You are who you are, after all. Except for Sesshoumaru here, he's just a prick,” replied InuYasha, dodging a swipe from his older brother.
“I see no problem with that,” said Fidget, wiggling his eyebrows. Sesshoumaru growled at the neko from the front seat but said nothing.
“Anyway,” I interjected, “To answer your question, my father once saved the life of the Inu no Taisho, and to repay him Taisho-sama pledged to help him end his family's affliction.”
“Let me guess...the curse on your hand passed from your father to you,” said Fidget knowingly.
I nodded. “Sadly he died shortly after, and so Taisho-sama continues to help me in order to honor his debt to my father. I took a job with his agency after I finished school, I work with InuYasha and Sesshoumaru running the local branch.”
“What was your father's name?”
“Shimada Hajime, why?”
A strange expression came on Fidget's face as he stared at me. “Violet eyes...” he sang to himself. “So beautiful in the night sky, why oh why did I have to fall for those violet eyes...”
“Fidget?” I asked gently, wondering if the distracted neko could hear me.
“Hmm? Oh, sorry. I just got lost there for a second remembering...oh look! There's the old dog's mansion now! We'll have to continue this conversation later, Shimada Miroku,” he said just as InuYasha pulled up to his father's gate.
