![]() “I guess it's too much to ask of you to be a bit nicer to it isn't it,” Yusuke asked as he began ascending the stairs that would take them to Botan's door. Most likely she was going to be obnoxiously cheery and he'd have to restrain himself from gagging her during the duration of their visit. Today was certain to be particularly trying because it was what the ferry girl would call a perfect day to get out and enjoy the sunshine. “Let's just get this over with alright? The less time that we have to spend with Botan the happier I'll be,” Hiei said while shoving his hands into his pockets. Every death in the Ningenkai be it demon or human had to be dealt with by the Reikai much to his chagrin. ![]() There had been relatively few instances where he'd been required to meet with her outside of their appointed time and that had involved the times that a roaming demon had decided that Yukina looked good. It meant seeing Botan often but he could stomach that as well if it meant keeping Yukina safe. The paperwork he could deal with since it wasn't such a big deal in the first place. Hiei shrugged as if it was of no matter to him. Most likely though the woman was enjoying her vacation, at least now she didn't have to continue ferrying souls. He was however slightly disappointed that she'd been forced to play babysitter and keep an eye on them should anything go wrong. ![]() Meeting with her once a month at her apartment was a small price to pay to remain in the human realm. Botan had even been coerced into it although he supposed it could have been worse. ![]() A probationary period of two years had been established and it was mandatory they endure it along with the rules that came with it. In fact he was going through pretty much the same thing in spite of all they'd done to save the world. I just know how much you like being here and how much you enjoy dealing with Reikai bullshit on top of that,” Yusuke replied with little humor. Lesson number one was to never fuck with the man's family unless you had a death wish. As such he would remain in the Ningenkai for as long as necessary, even if it meant jumping through hoops at Enma's demand.Ī chill snaked down Yusuke's spine at the lethal look that had entered Hiei's eyes. One attempt had been made on her life already and that demon had paid dearly. That she'd be killed and her child cut from her womb was a given, few would pass up the chance to feast on the unborn's flesh. His nose wrinkled distastefully at the thought of what a demon would do to her. Koorime were a price catch and highly sought under the best of times but a breeding female was in constant danger. ![]() There was no way he was going to entrust her safety to Kuwabara, not now. Regardless of what had happened in his twin's life he would always be there for her, even if it was from the shadows. “What else did you expect me to do? Abandon her in her time of need?” Hiei snorted at that thought, he wasn't like the cold bitches that they'd been born to. That Hiei had returned shortly after the pregnancy had been announced was a bit surprising but then he'd learned why and agreed with the hybrid's reasoning. But the Koorime had quickly set him straight and told him that she'd reached maturity which meant that she would be bearing a child regardless of whether she'd lain with a man or not. I can understand why you'd stay though.” Truthfully he'd been stunned to hear that Yukina was pregnant and at first he'd been sure that Kuwabara was going to die for touching her. “When you came back I wasn't sure how long it was going to last. “I gotta hand it to you man,” Yusuke said as they turned down the sidewalk that would take them to Botan's apartment. ![]()
