Much time has passed since I left the world of the living. How are you able to summon me back?

(He hasn't drawn a weapon to defend himself (mainly because his swords are now in the hands of his sons). Yet he also seems to be feeling the situation out before he acts.)

I have no desire to be amongst the living. My time was spent well and I have no regrets about my death. I imagine that is hard for one as young as you to understand.

[ Her own expression turns somber. ]

They were killed by thieves. My brothers, too.

[inunotaisho]

I'm sorry to hear that. (So Sesshomaru took her in? Huh.) You are safe with my son.

[ See this smile? She knows that much above all else. ]

Mm, I know I am.

[inunotaisho]

(Alright, that's it. He picks her up with one arm.)

Until he finds you, I'll look after you.

[adorns]

.. Oh!

[ Was not expecting that! Her little fingers curl into the material of his sleeve so she can steady herself. ]

Is it really okay for me to stay here?

[inunotaisho]

Of course. (He gives her a warm smile.) I never had a chance to raise Inuyasha, but I did raise Sesshomaru.
