Clumsy 098: Room for Improvement

Disclaimer: I do hereby disclaim all rights and responsibilities for the characters in this topsy turvy tale… especially for the touchable one. A nod of recognition is bent towards Rumiko Takahashi for her creative prowess.

Chapter 98: Room for Improvement

Sesshoume could admit—to herself—that her human husband had touchable hair and an appealing scent. Kagomaru’s gentle hands and gentle ways managed not to mock her superior strength, and his kisses had sent her into flight. Twice.

Ignorant fool.

Kagomaru warily entered her circle of devastation. “Erm… wow. Three trees. I guess we can expand the garden.”

She flicked shredded wood from under a claw.

“You’re angry.” He eased into her space and offered a contrite kiss. “Give me another chance, Sesshoume-sama?”

She reluctantly met his earnest gaze.

“Please.” Kagomaru pulled her closer and promised, “Run, and I’ll follow.”

  2. I just read this take again. I like it very much because they character even with genders reversed are very fateful. Friends Miroku and Kagomaru is very interesting too.

    There was some trouble on my end with the “next chapters” links of chapters 51 and 76.
