"Sine, tan or cos? How am I supposed to know?" Kagome groaned, dropping her pencil in frustration. Her fingers were aching and she had a nasty headache. Sesshomaru's two beautiful small pups perked up from where they were huddled, and ran over to her, excited that she was no longer paying attention to what she called 'homework'. She laughed as they rolled over lap and scratched their ears.

"What is this...sine, tan and cos you speak of?" Sesshomaru asked from where he stood, back turned to them.

"Trigonometry," was her reply.

"Trigo..." Sesshomaru began, but trailed off. Kagome laughed when Sesshomaru couldn't pronounce the word. That was a first. She would have to remember that for the future.

"Trigonometry, it's working out values in a triangle," Kagome explained.

"And why would you want to know that, miko?"

"Various reasons," Kagome concluded, "it can be useful if you are a builder or engineer." Sesshomaru frowned, but did not speak again. As Kagome sat there, the pups rolling around in her lap, Kagome realized that Sesshomaru was very much like a complicated triangle, and she was trying to solve all his sides. Either that, or she was just crazy. Probably the latter.
