I drew Inuyasha as an adult cat person, so it’s time for the baby version.
Scenes from a marriage, when dad doesn’t want a cat but their little one does. Cat person is a lovely little story from @arisukingdom, give it a try!

I’ve been rereading @avionvadion’s SesshomaruXOC fanfic Forest Deep during my down time between classes and homework to relax and while reading chapter 36, this realization came to me.
Tumblr media
Inuyasha may most resemble Toga, but Sesshomaru’s apparently got some traits too.

Our gazes barely met in 0.01 seconds, so that is her story [Read it at A03]
Tumblr media
People said that the third time is a charm, and I can attest this story is one of them, so I was thinking about what to fit for the Slice of Life prompt in @inu-mothership I immediately thought of this drabble, which I supposed to last year's event and of course to @inuparentsday but yes I managed to get through.
Tumblr media
There is a joke with film majors that you have a Wong Kar Wai phase, and that film 'Chungking Express' is one of them , I love the breeziness of that story and it really fits Toga and Izayoi for some reason, and you will know why.

There’s Always Time For Coffee
She was a beauty incarnate, literally. Goddesses couldn’t compare to her. He stood at the back of the line, his son’s tiny hand tucked in his own, as he gazed at the woman behind the counter. While it was her long, sleek ponytail that first caught his attention the first time he stopped in this quaint coffee shop, it was her chocolate eyes that had captured Toga’s heart.

Birthday Thanks 🥰
Everyone, thank you, so so much for your birthday wishes! It’s been a really rough couple of months here (apologies for slowing down with my posts; things have been...it’s been a lot). Today has been a quiet day, and I’ve so appreciated all the warm wishes and birthday gifts, more than you know.
Here’s a little something to say thank you, below the cut: it’s an Inuparents AU, where Toga, Izayoi, and their friends celebrate Inuyasha’s first birthday. I hope you enjoy! 💖
Tumblr media
“Come on, Toga,” Izayoi said, “put Inuyasha in his seat, so I can get the cake!”
Toga grinned, and set their baby, newly one year old, in his high chair, Izayoi bustling about the kitchen, getting the smash cake prepared. 
He couldn’t believe that this was his life, now: he had a wife, and a baby, and, more than anything else, he had love. Toga had been married before, sure, but it had been an arranged marriage, one designed to bring success to both Toga’s family and Inukimi’s, and one that ended in amicable divorce. Toga and Inukimi had one son, Sesshōmaru, who was a teenager, and currently pretending to sulk in the corner of the dining room, although Toga could see his older son occasionally flashing a half-smile at his baby hanyō half-brother, who was currently vibrating his lips and running his hands along the high chair tray. 
“Careful, Ace,” Toga chuckled, gently moving his small son’s clawed hands away from the plastic. “You’re gonna wear some grooves in your tray, and Mama’s not gonna be happy about that.”
“Ma-ma-ma-ma,” gurgled Inuyasha; his tiny puppy ears twitched atop his head at the mention of his mother. 
“He’s so cute, Toga-oji-chan.” Rion, his best friend’s daughter, tickled Inuyasha under the chin, then looked up at Toga and smiled. “When do you think he’ll be old enough for Izayoi-oba-chan to let me babysit?”
“When he’s ten,” Izayoi called from the kitchen, and Rion pouted. 
Toga chuckled; Rion was only eleven, but she was smart and capable, and in a few years, Toga was confident that she’d be an excellent babysitter.
“Maybe we’ll talk to Izayoi about you being a mother’s helper this summer,” he whispered to her. “That would be a good first step for you.”
Rion’s turquoise eyes brightened. “That would be amazing!” she chirped. “Thank you!”
“My daughter charming her way into a part-time job?” Kirinmaru, Toga’s oldest and best friend, came up behind them and wrapped his arm around his daughter’s shoulders. 
“Papa,” pouted Rion, “I just want to squish Inuyasha’s baby cheeks!”
“You’ll have to get through his mother first,” Toga laughed. 
“We’re almost ready!” Izayoi called. “Toga, can you dim the lights?”
Even though it was the middle of the afternoon, and yōkai vision was sharp, even in the dark, Toga obeyed his wife, and shut off the lights in the dining room. He paused, and looked around: at his family, and his friends. At his sons. 
And, at his wife.
Had he ever felt such love, such warmth, such life, all in one room before? Had he ever felt such a strong inclination to love, to honor, to protect?
Izayoi came into the dining room, and set a large, rectangular cake down in front of Inuyasha. Toga knew that  it was yellow cake, covered in vanilla frosting, with round sprinkles, and, set right in the middle, was a large candle: a number one, for Inuyasha’s first birthday. 
His first of many, many birthdays to come, Toga hoped.
Izayoi took a lighter out of her pocket. “Now, Inuyasha,” she lightly chastised their child, who was already grabbing for the cake, “just hold on for a few more minutes, okay? Mama needs to light the candle for you.” 
Toga took Inuyasha’s grabby paws and held them steady while Izayoi lit the candle. “Hold on, Ace,” Toga laughed, “let’s get your candle done and sing ‘Happy Birthday,’ and then you can tear into your cake, okay?” 
“Ace?” Sesshōmaru snorted in his corner, but Toga chose to ignore it, instead keeping his eyes on his hanyō baby, who was now digging his claws into Toga’s fingers. Toga grit his teeth.
“Izayoi?” he asked.
A flick of the lighter, and the candle was lit. “All ready!” Izayoi said brightly, then snapped off the lighter, tucked it back into her pocket, and lightly massaged her baby boy’s ears. Inuyasha cooed, and relaxed, as his eyes caught the candle.
“Ba-ba-ba!” he exclaimed, pointing at it.
“That’s right, honey” Izayoi assured him, “that’s your birthday cake candle!” She looked up at Toga. “Ready?” she asked. 
Toga grinned, and pulled out his phone. “Ready,” he said, and opened his camera app, setting it to take video.
“Okay!” Izayoi said loudly. “It’s time to sing!” She paused, took a breath, and then Toga watched, breathless, as his wife’s clear voice took the lead, the others picking up and filling in, rich and vibrating and celebratory:
Happy birthday to you Happy birthday to you Happy birthday Inuyasha Happy birthday to you
“Make a wish!” Izayoi trilled, then leaned over, and helped Inuyasha blow out the candle, her face flushed and bright and happy. 
“Can he do it?” Sesshōmaru asked, still grumpy in his corner.
“You bet,” Izayoi beamed. “Okay honey,” she added to Inuyasha, “go ahead and enjoy your cake!”
She took out the candle, then stepped back, Toga still filming. They all watched as Inuyasha stared at the cake for a long, impossibly drawn-out moment, then ran one claw along the icing. He picked up his claw, licked at it, looked down at the cake, and repeated the move a second, a third, a fourth time.
“Father,” Sesshōmaru sighed.
“Hush,” Toga said sharply. “Let him figure it out.”
“So cute,” sighed Rion.
“Come on, baby,” Izayoi encouraged Inuyasha, “I know you’ll love it!”
Inuyasha grunted, and blew some bubbles, and then, took one hand, raised it up high, and brought it down with a smash. Frosting and cake and sprinkles flew everywhere, hitting Izayoi, and covering Toga’s camera. 
“Inuyasha!” Izayoi scolded lightly, but their baby was now digging through the cake with glee, grabbing fistfuls and shoving them in his face. Toga couldn’t help it; he began to laugh, hard, at Izayoi’s consternation, at the tiny twitch of Sesshōmaru’s lips. “Toga!” Izayoi said next, but Toga just tugged his wife to him and planted a soft kiss on her lips.
“You wanted a smash cake for him, love,” he said, affectionately watching as his son ripped apart the cake. “And I think you got your wish.”
“I—I did,” Izayoi laughed, as Inuyasha screeched and hurled a piece of cake across the room, hitting Sesshōmaru square on the cheek. “It’s—it’s exactly what I wanted.”
As Izayoi snuggled into his side, and their friends laughed and snapped pictures of Inuyasha, his face now buried in the cake, Toga knew:
This was family. This was love.
And this was all he ever wanted, or needed.

whumptober day 4
whumptober prompt no. 4: dead on your feet -- hidden injury pairing: toga/izayoi universe: inuyasha rating: pg-13?
Dogs try to lie but always fail-- as in, look at the bones scattered about the room, I certainly didn’t eat that entire slab of boar, as in--Toga needs to sleep but his pauldrons stay put, his pelt pools around his reclining body and Izayoi can run her hands through silver hair but is not allowed to touch his skin. It’s a new development in their relationship, where his body is usually pressed right to hers the moment he sees her again, mouth fiery and fingers wandering, but now he tells her he’s fine, really, I just want to be around you for a bit.
Izayoi almost believes him until blood seeps through his fine white kimono onto her floor. She’s seen knotted scars disappear by dawn, even watched one of his fangs grow back in two hours, but she’s never seen him still bleeding. When his head tilts to the side and he’s in sleep so fitful, fear hooks cold fingers into Izayoi’s chest, and she can’t help but press a hand to his silks, just to feel his shallow breath.
“I forbid you,” she mutters, and his pulse flutters as quickly as a summer bird’s wing and there’s almost a smile on his lips.
“I’ll never die,” he says, and it’s a very bad lie.

The sun was rising, steam was coming up through the roof of the hut, the sky was blue, and late into the night fluffy clouds rolled in. The birds were chirping and the bugs were buzzing about. Shippo was outside with Kagome, they were down by the lake earlier that morning collecting water to be boiled for breakfast, they were now outside drawing in the dirt.
Kagome seemed lost in thought, yet she also seemed happy, her keens pressed up against her chest as she watched Shippo draw something in the dirt. The straw-like door was rolled up, letting in natural light into the little home. Inside Miroku, Sango and Kirara were all watching over the food. Sango was watching the rice boil, while Miroku was getting the plates ready for breakfast.
You had been made the main course of the meal at the crack of dawn, fried fish, Shishimi, and some boiled eggs. However, you and Inuyasha were long gone before the group awoken, but you did let Shippo know where you were both going, his ears are more sensitive than the others, so he was awoken from all the noise from you cooking. You told him that you and Inuyasha were going to go for a little stroll, and that when the rice was done that they can all eat as much as they wanted.
That was about 30 minutes ago, Kagome sighed as she looked up and down the path that lead to the hut, before her eyes drifted off towards the trees. “I wonder where they gone off to.” She spoke aloud to herself in wonder. Shippo looked up from his drawing, a curious gleam in his eyes as he looked up at her. “I’m sure they’re fine, Kagome. Inuyasha is pretty strong so they’ll be safe for sure!!” He said in a reassuring voice as he smiled up at her. She stared at the trees a little longer before she looked down at him. “I know, but I can’t help but feel….” She trailed off as she ducked her chin down on top of her knees, a sadden look on her face.
Shippo tilted his head some. “Feel what, Kagome?” Came Miroku’s voice as he and Sango exited the hut. Shippo and Kagome both looked over at them. Kirara, nested in Sango’s arms, meowed and jumped down next to Kagome, she looked up at her before she nuzzled her head against her hip. Kagome smiled down at her, before she gently rubbed her head. Sango observed Kirara for a moment before she looked at Kagome. “Kirara can feel that something is bothering you, care to share?” She asked as she sat down next to Kagome, her keens bent to the side.
Miroku remained standing as he stared down at her with an expectant yet understanding stare. Kagome looked around at everyone before she nervously laughed. “Uh-haha- It’s nothing, really guys. It’s silly honestly.” She said dismissively as she busied herself with petting Kirara’s fur. Sango, Mirkou, and Shippo all shared a look before they all looked back at Kagome. “It’s about Inuyasha and Kikyo, isn’t it?” Sango said, her tone sympathetic. Kagome looked over at her with a shocked worried look before she looked back down at her knees.
“Yeah, it is… I’m just…. I’m worried, that Inuyasha might be thinking about going back to Kikyo. It just feels like everything that we’ve been through means nothing to him, and I’m worried that his mom might...” She trailed off as she bit her lip and her eyes teared up. Sango gave her a sad look, she felt sorry for Kagome, she was so young, and yet she was going through this hardship. Miroku spoke up. “Are you worried that his mother might approve of him being with Kikyo?” He asked, trying to make sense of her emotions. Kagome’s silent nod confirmed it and Sango placed a comforting hand on her shoulder.
“It’s okay, Kagome, you have no need to worry. I think Inuyasha’s mom likes you plenty, you’ll never know unless you ask right?” She said in a comforting tone. Kagome looked over at her, her face slightly flustered from crying before she flashed her a weak smile. “Right.” She said. Shippo stepped to her, placing his little hand on her shin in comfort before he smiled up at her with confidence. “I think Inuyasha’s mom likes you way more than Kikyo.” He said, they all looked at him with wide eyes. “Oh, how do you figure?” Miroku asked.
Shippo closed his eyes and he puffed his chest. “Because Kagome technically brought Inuyasha back home, he wasn’t anywhere near Kikyo when we first came here, so maybe she figured that you convinced him to come home.” He said in a factual tone. Everyone stared at him in silence, his words soaking in. “You know...’ Sango trailed off. “He kind of has a point.” Miroku finished. Kagome stared at Shippo a little longer, before she beamed a real smile at him. “Thanks, Shippo, you actually helped me. I think you have a point.” She said, Shippo smiled up at her, his tail slightly wagging behind him, happy to have made Kagome feel better.
“It’s no issue, Kagome, I’m always here to help!!” He cheered, Kagome chuckled before she gently ruffled his hair, and he leaned into the touch. “We should eat breakfast now, we don’t want the rice to stick,” Sango suggested. Everyone nodded as they all headed inside to have a warm breakfast. Kagome’s worries were cast away with the wind.
-------------;✩̣̣̣̣̣ͯ┄•͙✧⃝•͙┄✩ͯ•͙͙✧⃝•͙͙✩ͯ┄•͙✧⃝•͙┄✩̣̣̣̣̣ͯ------------------
You and Inuyasha have been walking for about 30 minutes now, Inuyasha has been reminiscing about his childhood. He pointed out the tree he used to play on, he pointed out the flower bed that he helped you plant, and he even pointed out the new path in the woods that was never there before. You explained to him that it was for village men to travel to and fro from Village to village more easier, they kept getting lost so eventually someone made a path. You both walked a talked about pieces and parts of his childhood, it was nice to revisit the fond memories with him.
In your walk, Inuyasha suddenly paused, his eyes trailing up the large tree not too far from him, you stared at the tree for a moment, before a smile crossed your face when you noticed what it was that he was staring at. It was a tree with his claw marks, which he used to mark his territory when he became a young teen, his instincts told him to do so.
He walked up to the tree, the marks came up to his chest, and his eyes sadden, his fingers tracing over the dull markings now. You walked up next to him. “I’ve been gone for a long time, huh Mom.” He said aloud to himself, you didn’t answer, feeling that it wasn’t a question, but a thought.
He scowled and his hand pressed into the tree. “You told me that Sesshomaru came by to visit every few new moons. Why?” He suddenly asked, he didn’t look at you, his eyes staring at the marks but not truly seeing them. A wind passed by, blowing both of your clothes and hair in the wind. “He came for questions.” You answered honestly. He turned his head slightly to you, but he didn’t look at you. “What questions did he come for?” He asked. You stared at him, calmness swarmed you, but you knew that your answer could change the wind.
“He wanted to know more about Tessaiga, and Izayoi.” You answered, the wind picked up and you tensed but you didn’t turn away. His fist clenched, and he turned towards you, but he wasn’t angry, just curious. “I can understand why he’d want to ask questions about the old man’s sword, but why about my mother? And why did he come to you for questions?” He asked, he felt…. Lost and hurt…. That you’d give Sesshomaru answers and not him. Why? He deserved to know. You took in a deep breath and you walked towards him, he watched as you walked past him, sitting down on one of the thick roots of the tree with his claw marks.
“Sit down, Inuysaha.” You gently ordered as you touched the space next to you. He eyed the spot, and he moved to sit down next to you. You both sat in silence for a few seconds before you spoke up. “Sesshomaru wanted to know where to find Tessaiga, but I denied him his request.” You explained. His eyes widen. “Why?” He asked.
You smiled to yourself before you looked at him, your hand gently coming up to caress his face, he leaned into it, and it made your heart swell. “Because, he told me that it was meant for you, Inuyasha, and I refused to break an old friend’s promise.” You said softly. His eyes shined in understanding before he looked confused once more. “Then what about my Mother? Why did he want to know about her?” He asked skeptically. You smiled fondly to yourself before you pulled your hand away from his cheek, and placed it in your lap.
“Because, Sesshomaru knew that Tessaiga and Izayoi were connected.” You explained. His eyes widen and his ears perked up. “Mother had a connection to Tessaiga? But how? Last I checked, Tessaiga is a demon sword.” He said, confusion danced in his eyes as he tried to understand it all. Your smile never left as you looked up towards the leaf-covered sky. The thick branches were full of wide, green leaves.
They covered the sky nearly completely, but the wind blowing made the sky viewable. “Because, Toga told Sesshomaru that he must have someone worth protection.” You explained. Inuyasha remained silent as he listened. You continued. “You see, Toga learned, that in order to use Tessaiga, your heart must be cleansed of all hatred for those who doesn’t deserve your wrath, but your protection.” You explained
Inuyasha’s eyes gleamed. “So, is that why I can use Tessaiga and Sesshomaru can’t? Is it because of Kagome?” He asked, as he paced his hand on Tessaiga’s hilt. You looked away from the sky and over towards him. “No, it’s because you were born without hatred.” You said, your eyes holding many tales from a land that doesn’t exist anymore. He looked over at you. “Born of hatred?” He asked. You nodded your head. “Yes, you see, all demons are born with hatred in their heart for those weaker than themselves. They crave to be the strongest and to rule the lands, but you were born from a human woman, making your heart cleansed at birth.” You explained, hoping he understood.
He looked at you for a moment, his features flickering again from his mother's to his father’s as he thought of your words. “But, then wouldn’t that mean that my father wouldn’t be able to wield Tessaiga?” He asked as he looked down in his lap. You smiled, you figured he’d ask that. “That’s exactly the case, Toga wasn’t able to wield Tessaiga for many moons.” You said, he turned towards you, his eyes gleaming an unfamiliar gleam. “Really?” He asked curiously as he leaned towards you some, he was greatly curious.
You nodded your head, a fond smile on your face as you remembered your younger years. “That’s right, Toga wasn’t always dubbed as “The Great Dog Demon”, he was once your average hound demon, whom was just as clumsy and just as wild as you were.” You said, your voice lively from the sweet memories of a younger Toga. Inuyasha’s face brighten slightly with an amused smile. “Was he really? I just always figured that he was always great… but I guess that everyone has to start somewhere.” He said as he looked up at the sky in wonder.
You giggled a bit before you looked over at him. “Mmhmm, that’s true, every creature must start somewhere, no matter how ‘great’ they were before they passed.” You said in a factual tone. He stared at the sky a little longer, listening to your words, his eyes danced through the leaves, but you could tell that he wanted to ask something. “So? How was he able to…. Ya know… cleanse his heart or whatever?” He asked before he looked at you. Your smile softened and your eyes warmed. “It was because of Sesshomaru.” You said. He lightly gasped at your words. “Because of Sesshomaru? But how?” He asked, he was confused. If Sesshomaru was the cause, then why didn’t Sesshomaru know how to wield Tessaiga?
You looked down at your hands, your left hand cradled in your right, as your thumbs rubbed each other. “Sesshomaru doesn’t understand how to wield Tessaiga, because it was on the day he was born, that Toga learned to wield Tessaiga.” You explained. Inuyasha blinked….. “Huh?” He questioned as he gave you a dumbfounded look.
You looked over at him with an amused grin. “Silly boy…. It was because of Sesshomaru’s birth, that Toga, for the first time ever, truly had something important to protect, a being that was weaker than himself, so fragile and innocent to the world, needed his protection. He told me, “It was like the joyous feeling to ever overcome me. My heart bloomed and my chest felt tight, and Tessaiga, for the first time ever, pulsed.” That was the day he learned, the secret to wield Tessaiga.”
You told him, and he stayed silent for a while, soaking in your words. “So, why didn’t he give Sesshomaru Tessaiga when he was old enough to use it?” He asked. You answered. “It was because Sesshomaru’s heart was shrouded in darkness, he knew, that if he gave Sesshomaru Tessaiga, then it’ll be a blood bath for all creatures lesser than himself. So Toga gave Sesshomaru Tenseiga.” You explained, you almost wanted to laugh when Sesshomaru came to you with a complaint, but there was nothing you could do.
Inuyasha smirked. “Hah! Serves him right, he gave him that useless sword.” He teased, you smiled sweetly before you reached up and snagged on his ear. “OW! OW!! WHAT I DO!? IT’S NOT LIKE I’M WRONG!!” He complained as he howled in pain. You humphed as you pinched his ear a little harder, making his hands hold onto your wrist. “It’s not a useless sword, it can bring back anyone from the dead.
It’s powerful when used correctly.” You schooled as you held his ear. “OKAY, OKAY!! I GET IT, JUST LET ME GO!!” He yelled. You held it a little longer before you let it go. He sat back up straight and he rubbed his ear. ‘Sheesh, fingers of steel.” He lightly complained under his breath. You looked over at him, your ever-sweet smile returning to your face.
“Perhaps we should test these ‘fingers of steel’ on your other ear, hmm?” You asked as you made a pinching motion with your fingers. He flinched back as he covered his ears and he shook his head. You breathed in and out before you looked back up at the sky, you could see a large cloud crossing over. The sun was just now making its way to the 10:00 am mark. “Tenseiga was given to Sesshomaru, so that he could learn to cherish life, and Toga knew the day would come, when he’d resurrect someone from the dead. Someone who he deemed worthy of his protection.” You explained.
Inuyasha had stopped rubbing his ear in favor of listening to you. “Someone worthy of his protection…. Rin.” He said, his eyes widening in realization. You nodded your head. “Yes, the young girl whom he now travels with, she’s fragile enough to be needed of his protection, and I can tell, that she’s wormed her way into his ever demonic heart. He’s highly protective of her.” You explained, a fond smile on your face as you thought of yours and Sesshomaru’s recent meeting.
Inuyasha looked at you in thought, before realization came in. “Wait, how do you even know Sesshomaru? I thought he didn’t like half-breeds and Humans.” He said, his eyebrow arched as he questioned you. You looked over at him with a mischievous yet happy look. “Why I was considered as his favorite caretaker when he was just a boy.” You said. He stared at you for a moment before he looked at you with a face of horror. “You took care of that beast, then you sure did a shitty job at it.” He said as he eyed you. You gave him your ever-sweet smile as your Jaki flared up.
He flinched from your demonic aura and he jumped into a branch on the tree. You took a deep breath before you stood, you stretched your limbs out, stiff from sitting in one position for so long. “Come now, dear son of mine, I have lunch to make and I’m making your favorite, just for you~” You chirped happily as you called up towards him, he stayed in the tree, a fearful look upon his face as he looked down at you. “That would sound nice, if you weren’t oozing out malice.” He said as he could see your ever-loving smile, but the dark aura of promised punishment flared up behind you. You giggled sweetly at his words. “Why you silly boy, I have no idea what you’re talking about.” You said as you lightly fanned him off.
He ducked back further on the branch. “How can she say that with such a kind smile?” He said aloud to himself in fear for his life. He perked up when he noticed that you began to walk back to the hut, you waved behind yourself as you walked. “WELL, I’LL SEE YOU BACK AT HOME THEN!! I’LL BE SURE TO TRY AND LEAVE SOME FOR YOU TOO!!” You said, as you walked away. He stared at you with an annoyed look, before he jumped down from the tree. He placed his hands into his sleeves, prepared to stalk off after you, but he stopped and looked back at the tree.
His old claw marks have dulled throughout the years, and his scent wasn’t as strong as it used to be. He wanted to feel sorry for himself and claim himself to be a bad son for not visiting. Hell, even Sesshomaru visited and she wasn’t even his damn mother. He grunted in irritation before he walked up to the tree, and placed his palm on the claw marks. “A new moon is going to come soon, and when it does, I’ll be the one to talk to you this time.” He said, his eyes holding determination before he sunk his claws into the bark and he made a new mark into the tree with a determined cry. “Sesshomaru!”

So I did a thing. For this @inu-mothership Fleet Week, I decided I wanted to see what I had time to do and where the tide took me (yes the nautical pun was intentional), and for this, it became an exploration of a ship I've never done, one that I consider to be exceedingly sexy. So I give you the beautiful ladies who gave us our favorite boys, in an AU.
Mistress IzaKimi Enemies to Lovers
Summary: Sometimes the chickens come home to roost, and Izayoi can no longer look at her relationship with Tōga as something abstract, not when the statuesque perfection that is his wife InuKimi is standing at her door. But InuKimi is not there solely for a confrontation, she is there for something else too.
I hope you all enjoy reading this as much as I enjoyed writing it!
