Summary: “As the great Bushido once said, let what is past flow away downstream.”
---------------------------------
'What can I say? He grew on me like a patch of moss... I like moss.' -Gretchen Lauzus
“Goddammit, Houshi!”
Miroku sighed wearily. It was a hard life, being so wise and knowledgeable. It was tough, thankless work, but worth every minute to be able to reap the benefits of his work.
Inuyasha was pacing around the campfire, his robes a vivid colour as they were illuminated by the firelight. “What am I going to do?? I'm completely screwed! And it's all your fault!”
The monk shook his head, looking up from his seat on the ground. “My friend, as the great Bushido once said, let what is past flow away downstream.” He nodded sagely, a serene look on his face.
“And what the hell's that supposed to mean?”
Miroku waved his hand, ignoring his friend's antic. “It means that it is pointless to try and assign the blame now. What you should be doing is trying to solve your problem.”
The hanyou spun around, glaring daggers into his friend. “What do you mean, me?? We're in this together, bouzo.”
Suddenly, the girls stalked back into the campsite, arms linked together and hair still damp from the hotsprings. Shippo pranced along behind them, his little nose up in the air. Miroku and Inuyasha watched them walk, Miroku looking nervous and Inuyasha looking, well, guilty.
Exuding haughtiness, the girl walked around to the other side of the fire, curling up together as they prepared to go to sleep.
As their whispers died to a gentle hum of even breathing, Inuyasha leaned over to Miroku. “Yeah, great defense there, houshi.”
