iy_no_kakera The young masters are busy men indeed.
Both are highly sought after in their field and I am proud as I am pleased to work for them. Not just for and because of who they are to the world, but because of who they are on a much more personal and private level to those that truly know them. However, what is truly inspiring is to watch them interact with each other. It can be difficult with schedules as hectic and demanding as theirs are to maintain a healthy relationship but they manage.
If fact they do more than manage, they excel at it.
For example, everyone has certain little things they like their significant other to do for them and to watch them accomplish such things in the midst of cell phones buzzing, email messages coming in, this appointment and that meeting is remarkable. It is truly awe-inspiring.
Bankotsu loves it when Inuyasha fusses with his hair and even though Inuyasha wouldn’t admit to it, he nearly rolls over and bares his stomach like the dog demon he is when his lover rubs his feet.
So as I work to tidy up their suite I see Inuyasha sitting on the bed with Bankotsu seated upon the floor in between his legs. Inuyasha has the wireless ear piece to his cell phone clipped near his ear and is talking animatedly to someone about not trading some product before the new mark on the Yen is known and Bankotsu has his electronic planner out steadily navigating through screens I couldn’t hope to understand.
It seems like all business but it’s not.
Inuyasha is working on braiding the thigh length raven river known as Bankotsu’s hair and while Ban has one hand busy flipping through what is surely his work schedule he has the other wrapped around Inuyasha’s foot.
Is that not what love and true affection is all about?
Making time to do those little things when time is the major thing in short supply? Others may not agree but I think that is exactly what it is. When your main focus has to be elsewhere, taking the time to let your partner know they are important and that you are there is a crucial thing indeed.
I continue to watch them after the hair is done and both feet are rubbed and now it is Bankotsu on the phone booking a flight with his travel agent as Inuyasha sits in front of the desk he keeps his laptop on. There is much talk about something going on in Paris and when the date is mentioned he looks over Inuyasha‘s shoulder and the silver haired Inu points at something on the screen and shakes his head no.
Ban tells his agent that there are only about thirty days out of three hundred and sixty-five a year that he is explicitly unavailable and he needed to work around it. The man must have argued because dark brows furrowed before he says through clenched teeth that September 17th is out of the question, end of story.
Ah, the wolf demons birthday and subsequent celebration.
That is another amazing thing. Their family is in short supply so friends have that standing with them and if it is important to one of them in the group it is important to all of them. Little to no exceptions.
The situation gets resolved, they finish getting ready to leave their home and start their day. The lover’s part with a kiss that still makes me blush after all these years and off they go.
Yes, the young masters are busy men, but they are never too busy for the things and people that truly make life worthwhile.
