A New Challenger Appears! [Semi-Closed]
WHO: The Medicine Seller (sou_desu_ne) and Kurama (fox_shuuichi). For logical reasons, open to those who live and work in Paradise Blossoms.
WHAT: An offer of employment - and the possible shenanigans that result from mixing demons with hunters.
WHERE: Paradise Blossoms
WHEN: The day of the Medicine Seller's post.
Kurama wasn't sure what had made him do it. All the others he'd offered shelter to had been friends of Hakkai's - Gojyo, Sanzo, and now Goku. Even Homura, for a brief time, though he supposed that was a little different - not a friend, perhaps, but someone who had at least cared enough to carry Hakkai home.
But this - this was different. He had no real idea who this man was, nor what he was like. All he was judging by was that he had helped those in need - particularly Kagari - and seemed to understand the use of medicinal herbs and plants.
It wasn't as if he even needed another employee. He and Gojyo handled business quite well, with Hakkai stepping in to help occasionally, when he wasn't busy at his teaching job. Business was fine, but not particularly booming, and with extra mouths to feed (Goku definitely counted as more than one mouth, in Kurama's opinion), it might even make things tighter to take on another employee.
Still, there was something here Kurama didn't quite understand. Something almost...challenging. Something that tugged on his inner - and newly-awakened - demon with a sense of...mischief, if he didn't know any better.
Maybe he didn't. Maybe that was what this was all about.
Nothing for it, though. The offer had been made, and Kurama was not the type to go back on his word. But with new people in the shop...
They'd all have to be a little more careful from now on. Especially with all this renewed talk of demons and people who hunted them. It would pay now, more than ever, to keep a low profile.
So he went about his business as usual, waiting for the sound of unfamiliar footsteps outside the door, a new scent - and the challenge that would come with it.
