[ It sounds like a normal evening in the household; there’s sounds of dinner cooking, that much is made obvious from the sounds coming through the SFC. It doesn’t take too long before the SFC picks up the sound of a conversation, however … ]

Huh … you know, you’d make someone a good wife.

... I think my brother said that to me once.

Really? It’s kinda true!

[dryly] Oh ha ha.

You could be our wife! [ She pauses for a moment, before her voice comes onto the SFC again, a little louder this time. ]

HEY! SHING! I FOUND US A WIFE!

Hmm? [ There’s a shuffling sound before Shing’s voice is heard again. ] ... well, I agree he does have the cooking skills for it!

[something clatters against the oven noisily] What?! Shut up! Both of you! I’ll kick both your asses, I ain’t nobody’s wife goddamnit!

Awwww, I’d love to see you try, honey, but then dinner will burn! [ She sounds like she’s taunting him, but she’s really just playing around. ]

So mean, Rin... is this why your previous husband left you? [ Oh, boy, and now that he’s picked up on the teasing he’s joining right in on that... ]

[Heeee might be growling a bit] I should just let you two brats starve!

[ Kohaku’s laughing a little. ] We love you, Rin! Really! You’re just so easy to tease ~

We only tease because we care, Rin! Don’t be so angry? Please? [There’s more shuffling, and then the sound of footsteps.]

Hng--! Let go--! ... damnit, fine! You win! Leggo so it doesn’t burn!

[ And with that and a bit of laughing, the SFC switches off. Now would be a good time for more teasing/trolling/letting them know that they were heard! ]

( ooc: purple is Kohaku, blue is Rin and red is Shing. )

Seriously, I swear you two could be brothers!

[ y e p, girlfriend's over here staring at the two of them with a very amused smile on her face. she's just gonna watch them have at each other with cooking utensils. ]

... wait, what.

[Shing's exchanging glances between her and Rin, and then at himself. Never mind that he's getting hit still, but... herp. Well.]

[An opening! Smack smack smack! ... geez you'd think after getting hit that many times he'd stop gawking at his girlfriend...

Wait.

What.]

... what?

What? It's not that hard to believe, is it? You two kinda fight like brothers.

[ though she's going to take the opening she's gotten from this, run over, jump, and tackle Shing onto the couch. KOHAKU TOPS. ]

Hey, wait a minute--!

[ajhsbdasjhgdkas Shing yelps as he's tackled onto the couch with a startled yelp. Geez, Kohaku, you could maybe warn him next time--?]

It's not a brotherly fight, Kohaku! It's... something other than one, okay?

[The exact nature of which he's trying to determine as he glances at Rin with a helpless look on his face. HELP HIM OUT HERE, WILL YOU?]

Uhg...

[What a way for it to end.]

Get a room, you two!

[Help. What is help.]

Nah, we'll wait until you leave to do that.

[ there's a grin on her face. yep, sitting on Shing. ]

But seriously, what's so bad about that idea? Shing, you're kind of acting like you wouldn't want a brother.

[HE IS NOT FURNITURE KOHAKU WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU.]

Hold on, Kohaku, stop; I never said that...

Tch. No one wants me as a brother. Yukio has enough problems with me.

[crosses arms over his chest, looking away while tapping his foot]

If you two keep that up you're not gettin' dinner.

Hey! Rin, don't say that!

[ Yep, still sitting on the boyfriend. Sorry, Shing. At least she's not heavy?

And yep, crossing her arms over her chest with a huff. ]

I'd want you as a brother! You would be an awesome brother! And I'm sure you're an awesome brother to Yukio, too!

[ She really misses her brother, though, and it might be a bit obvious ... ]

Rin, seriously. Stop that, I'd like having you as a brother! Even if you say otherwise.

[He laughs, before pausing and glancing up at Kohaku with a knowing, gently pushing her off of him. Enough of that.

In any case, he sighs, giving Rin a smile as he jerks a finger back towards Kohaku.]

Trust me on this, she knows what she's talking about. And I don't believe you when you say that; you haven't given me any reason to think otherwise, so!

[Oh. Yeah. Kohaku has a brother back home, doesn't she? ... crap, now he feels like an ass...]

Er... s... sorry...

[ Yep, and she misses big bro pretty badly. After being pushed off of Shing, she repositions herself on the couch next to him and leans against him a little before she responds again. ]

It's fine. Just don't put yourself down like that, okay? You're really awesome, Rin.

You really are, Rin. And I think you're more amazing than you're giving yourself credit for.

[sdjkahsdasd Kohaku why are you so cute. Shing nods at Rin in emphasis though one arm pulls her into a hug.]

Tch. Suckin' up to me won't get you more food!

[And he turns to go back to the kitchen, but stops and mutters quickly with his back still to them.]

... thanks... it's nice to have people who believe in me...

[ She grins a little. ]

Oh, we weren't expecting more food! But hey, if you're offering ...

[ Her expression becomes more gentle, though. ]

I'm sure ... you have a very strong spiria, Rin.

[ Not that Rin would understand that, but she knows it's true. ]

I know you must.

There's no doubt in my mind that he does, Kohaku.

[Seriously, how Rin had helped him during the whole half-demon things has to count for something, right? In any case, he flashes an encouraging grin to Rin.]

... yeah yeah don't get all sappy on me, geez...

[He is grateful for it, though, even if he's not acting like it.]

Too late! Already there!

[ Kohaku grins at Rin, leaning a little more against Shing as she does so. ]

What's life without a bit of sap, anyway?

You know you like it, Rin, don't lie!

[And Shing can't help but laugh as he pokes Rin's cheek teasingly. So cute!]

Auuuughh!

[The noises he's making, he sounds vaguely like an angry cat. Even his tail has puffed up a little in irritation and is swinging around wildly.]

[ blink. blink. and then she looks back to Shing. ]

Shing, are you sure we didn't also adopt a cat when we adopted a wife ...?

[Shing pauses, looking at Rin curiously before breaking out into a mischievous grin.]

I don't know! But he'd look cute in cat ears, right?

... put cat ears on me, and I'll fillet the both of ya.

[shaking a knife at both of them]
