He heard their conversation, how could he not but he said nothing when she entered looking up at her he inclined his head regally "I know." he said simply With out Angel there Rin had shifted so that her head now rested on Sesshomarus lap small fingers clutching his pants the top robe covering her like a blanket.  One of his hands was resting slightly on her head fingers gently stroking her hair in an absent gesture he might not have even been aware of.<br/><br/>"I won't presume to step in to your battle, but if this Demons poses a risk to my lands I will fight him... I allow a lot of freedom but I will not tolerate a rouge demon in my lands." he said calmly, his tone giving no room for argument.  Would he step in if she lost her fight?  He wasn't certain yet... Likely Rin would expect it of him,  she asked for very little but her human compassion was just as strong as ever and after a time perhapse it had begun to influence him in a way.  not long before he never would have Paid Angel any attention She was not his problem but here he was, in a small shack Jaken off collecting information while he set by willing to watch the night so the two women could rest.<br/><br/>"Get some sleep." he said after a long moment turning his eyes on her watching her calmly.<br/>---------------------------<br/><br/>She had a moment to consider satisfaction, so he would thank her.  He could be taught.  As far as she was concerned respect was something that should be given when earned and she -  She gasped weakly eyes going wide as he kissed her, thin lips firm against hers She'd never been kissed before... well, no, There had been the affectionate kiss on the cheek with her father but well that was very different.  she'd never been kissed, by a man like this.  She should shove him away.  How dare he assume to touch her at all let alone kiss her?! She should make it clear she was in charge here... she... should...<br/><br/>But what could she say, she sighed weakly eyes closing as she relaxed hands against his chest ready to push him away had relaxed fingers curling slightly in the fabric of the robes she'd given him. She heard a bird call and gasped shoving at him and stepping back blushing brightly touching a hand to her lips as she looked away "I would appreciate it if you did not do such a thing again... I-it's improper, and I will not be kissed by a man I will never see again." she said softly but her voice trembled slightly.  Feathers erupted fluffing across her skin before sinking down again leaving her flesh unblemished as she struggled to regain her control.
