Mun wants both her pups in at once and is being lazy. So two for one special on the pups.

Rin is currently beside the fire and looking half-asleep with a book on her lap and a white plush looking blanket on her lap. She's definitely botherable and she hates sleeping almost as much as she hates Akito, which is quite a bit if you know anything about her. Her black hair is falling over her shoulders and on her lap while her head is leaning against the high back chair. Feel free to interrupt... or watch her sleep, after all, a girl who lives with her family has called her a "bewitching beauty".

Inuyasha on the other hand is perfectly content to be seated up the rafters again and enjoying ramen. Judging by the mess beneath him, this has to be his eighth cup of ramen. clatter ...make that ninth cup of ramen. No one knows how many of those things he's got up there on the rafters, or how delighted he is to have a basically endless supply of ramen.

"I'm some kind of what?" Bob frowns up at the white-haired boy in the rafters. "If you're going to insult me, then at least use words I can understand."

Swallow and bombs away! He's considerate enough to drop it on the otherside, hell if someone he knew and didn't like was there, he might have thrown the cup at them. He's got a slightly confused look on his face and points out the marks on Bob's skin.

"The hell's your problem? You're hanyou aren't you?"

...ahh, now it kicks in, well, two things anyways.

"Hanyou, y'know, half demon."

Inuyasha's thinking that this guy's either ignorant of his heiritage or he's in denial. Of course, the mun knows better but, is willing to let her pup make an ass of himself. It's in-character for this one after all.

Bob's frown deepens. "I'm not any kind of demon. This is scar tissue. I'm a sprite."

"A sprite?"

He's never heard of those before, though something in the back of his mind is saying something about a similarity to that one mythological thing... what was it again, Kagome did a paper on it... oh yeah, dryad or something like that.

But now he's looking from where he's at, head tilting slightly as he looks at the scars.

"Someone fire a bunch of flaming pellets on you or somethin'?"

He's not purposefully being an ass, it just comes out that way.

"Have you ever been to the Web?"

Later, it will occur to him how stupid that question is. Right now, he's too irritated to care.

"The Web? Some kind of spider hangout?"

Wait a second... Kagome'd talked about something like that a long time ago when they'd been passing by a store. Of course, he hadn't paid too much attention because of what wound up being a butcher's shop catching his eye.

"...that's in that thing right? That weird box that makes letters suddenly appear when you hit a button?"

Just look at his clothes; would someone who knows cyberspace wear something like that?

"A computer, you mean? Yes. That's where I live. In cyberspace."

That sounded about right to him.

"How do you live in there? I haven't seen a way to get in there."

Then again, he doesn't realize there's a rather big difference between the worlds he knows about and the one of cyberspace.

"How do you live outside of cyberspace?" He shrugs. "I just do."

...he never actually bothered to think of it that way.

"Probably 'cause there ain't any such thing as computers or cyberspace where I live. Kagome's the one who tells me about some of it."

He's chowing down again and offers a cup, truce of sorts. Hell, he's willing to bet Naraku'd chill the hell out if he had a taste of what Kagome could bring back from her time.

Bob waves it away. "No thanks. I can't eat human food. It doesn't agree with me." He peers up at Inu-Yasha, his irritation giving way to curiosity. "So where are you from, then?"

He's never heard of people turning down ramen but, hey, more for him that way. No skin off his back.

"Feudal Japan. Or at least that's what Kagome tells me, all I know is that there's stupid human fights all over the place and youkai that need an ass kicking."

If pressed, Inuyasha can throw out three names right off the top of his head.

"Is that on Earth?"

"Yep. Japan's a country on Earth. I'm from the past and Kagome's from the present. You might even live around in one of her school computers."

He's actually rather proud of himself for figuring that possiblity out.

"Probably not. Unless Japan is part of Canada. Or Canada is part of Japan."

Geography is not Bob's strong suit. He didn't even know what geography was until last week.

"Nah, Japan's by the mainland..."

What the hell had Kagome called it again? Oh yeah.

"China. Or at least I think that's what she said it was. She says we're in Asia or something."

"I... have no idea where any of those are." He shrugs helplessly.

Inuyasha's not so hot with geography either. He leaves the directions and all that crap to Kagome to mess with. He's the ass kicker of the group. Literally at times.

A matching shrug. "Neither do I. She's the one with the crazy maps and books. I figure she knows what she's talking about... most of the time."

"Kagome, you mean? What's she like?"

Ping, bull's eye. Bob's landed on a really fun topic. There's a definite shift of attitude, along with a choking sound as he inhales his current mouthful of ramen.

"Kagome's Kagome."

That's the best way he can put it... and also to remind himself of it. That probably doesn't help this guy though... oh yeah, that damn locket thing. Inuyasha reaches into his clothes and pulls out something that looks like it's been through hell and made of brass in the shape of, what else would a girl who has feelings for a boy give, a heart. His claw easily opens the catch on the ornament and opens it before jumping down and offering it to Bob to look at.

"This is Kagome."

Not the best picture, she was in the middle of trying to sit him in the photo booth, on the other side is him yelling back at her. Perfect couple these two.

Bob squints to look at the picture, then chuckles. "I take it you two don't get along very well?"

He's embarrassed and closes the locket, stuffing it into his hitoe and scowling at nothing in particular.

"We get along fine, her brother did somethin' to this machine and I thought it was gonna attack her. She took the pictures and made this thing. She has one too. She overreacted is all, as usual."

Is that sunburn or is he blushing? It all up to your guess. Despite his insistance that she overreacts, it's completely obvious he's protective and a little possessive of her.

Oh, Bob knows that look. He's had it on his own face too many times to count. He smirks but doesn't comment.

"So, uh... you know, I just realized I never introduced myself. My name's Bob."

That... is probably the simplest name next to Sara that he's learned the whole two times he's been here. And that's not an insult, that's a good thing.

"I'm Inuyasha."

"Nice to meet you," he says, offering his hand.

Do half-demons do handshakes?
