Chapter 42: Clueless
Sesshoumaru stirred when the monk cheerfully called, “The sky is blue, the sun still shines—good signs!”
Shippo exclaimed, “Miroku’s still a pervert! Sango still blushes!”
Inuyasha yawned and stretched. “The runt’s still annoying. The ramen’s still gone.”
Making light of the wish. As if spotting its insidious consequences was a game.
A sudden silence fell.
It was the miko’s turn to state the obvious, but she was staring his way. Surely she did not expect him to participate.
“Kagome?” Inuyasha followed her gaze. “Figure something out?”
Her hand passed over her eyes. “I have no clue what’s going on.”

A morning rhyming game? Too much cheerfulness that early in the morning. Poor Kagome! I need more…

Maybe Kagome sees Sesshoumaru’s stripes changing color (hence the story title) and that is why she is confused.

I think the question is: does she see anything at all…?

Yes, that was my first thought. Then I decided it was more confusion than lack of vision.

This is obviously something they do fairly often. She wasn’t distracted by Sesshomaru so she doesn’t understand. But that means that there was a wish. And consequences. And that the Kagome they knew is gone.
