Thread: Tails Of A Half Breed [YYH] (FavoredFox)

Almond eyes rounded in surprise toward the comment as they landed on the fox. It was probably more shocking than it should have been. But that didn't stop it from shifting quickly back to that stern glare. What did I just say?! Hiei hated repeating himself. And he only managed to look even more defensive toward the small betrayal the fox tossed his way. He was more than used to Kurama turning such word play on him. Perhaps it was because he had been so focused on the hag. Unlike the redhead, he didn't make the connection with the blood himself but there was certainly a chance that was the case too. A pretty good one actually. At least as far as Genkai gathered. She was speculating, but she was still pretty sure that Hiei had been damned worried about Kurama's condition even after understanding that he wasn't going to die from his injuries. It wasn't just human nature after all. And even if he'd never admit to it she had no plan of reversing that assumption in the least. Hiei was used to being alone. He was used to not getting involved with other people. And the fact that he had, and that it was something he wasn't used to, spoke volumes toward his reaction to it. Hell, it might even be that he didn't realize it himself. He was pretty damned socially retarded after all. That wouldn't surprise her in the least. A glaring Hiei watched Kurama squarely as he walked by. So staunchly that he even turned to keep himself faced toward him as he went. Heh. The small chuckle caught his attention and he shifted that glare back on her from the corner of his eye. What! He couldn't fool her this time though. It was far too obvious. He hadn't turned away from the direction Kurama had gone so much so that he hadn't even fully turned his head. He was still worried. And that was what had brought about the noise. She hadn't even meant to do it. But it had made the situation even more obvious. Nothing, she commented smoothly as she reached for the single towel she had grabbed in order to clean up the mess that she'd thought would come of this. She would need more. If you're going to keep up that trait of yours of doing nothing useful you might as well get the Hell out of my way. With a small huff she bent down and began sopping up what blood she'd be able to capture up quickly before the situation got worse. I have a floor to clean. Curiosity hit those large almond eyes as the woman began cleaning. The last bit of what she had said had been significantly softer in tone. It was completely non-offensive. Hell, it even covered up the offense of how she'd said it to begin with. But curiosity in the woman's change wouldn't keep those crimson eyes from roaming off for long. And after a quiet moment of watching her wipe up some of that blood Hiei's feet followed the shift of those large eyes. It wasn't hard to catch up to Kurama in the least. And a heavy stare was landed on the larger creature from behind as he followed. And it wouldn't shift away if the redhead were to look back as he offered one simple word that said far too much despite how neutrally it came out. Fox. The look on his face was purely neutral as well. Except for one thing. While the appearance of a lax face that possibly looked more annoyed than it had previously as he spoke about his boredom, his chin was slightly tilted down. This caused the sharp study of those eyes to be focused up slightly from under his eyelids. Hiei's body language could be as insanely subtle as it could be overtly obvious. Luckily for Kurama he'd had several years to study both forms. Because Hiei was very obviously unwilling to share whatever it was that look of his was asking or perhaps assessing. So much so that he'd schooled his features just as naturally as he ever might when he had something to say that he actually wasn't willing to. Last edited Jul 17, 2018
