[Sesshoumaru is lingering near the Ramen Shop at present, watching the patrons as they come and go, and thinking of his brother. That last may account for the almost sour expression on the demon lord's usually impassive face. How far has he fallen in his few days in Marina that his thoughts are preoccupied with Inuyasha, and not with shoving the foolish hanyou face-first into the dirt, or with Inuyasha's latest idiotic escapade, but with something so common that Sesshoumaru can't help but wonder if it should bring shame upon his family: Inuyasha's obsession with ramen noodles. Sesshoumaru has yet to understand why his brother is so enamoured of the simple dish. Inuyasha may be half human, but he has an inu youkai's instincts. Can't he at least try to eat like one?]
