I go back, occasionally, to visit. [ Of course he does. There's Yukina to think about, even if he knows that she is living with the Kuwabaras and will be taken care of there. Beyond that...
There's Kurama to visit. And Shiori, once the fox had finally allowed the two of them to meet under much threat of actual violence if he was rude or otherwise fucked it up.
Either way, he won't be elaborating on these things to Yusuke at the moment. ]
[Huh. Yusuke genuinely hadn't expected that? He isn't even sure Kurama has gone back yet, though they have a few months now to get ready for the tournament.]
Man, I kind of feel like a jerk now. I mean it'd be a pain to deal with Yama's goons and we've been busy and all, but if even you've made time....
... Yes. [ Hiei already looks like he's annoyed to have to reiterate his point, red eyes narrowing. He has a sneaking suspicion they aren't talking about the same thing somehow...
But he also desperately wants off of this subject before the teen realizes he's going back partially to visit Yukina and then begins to rib him about it. Usually, the subject is very far off limits, but with her here and the whole new place thing he is sure it will come out at some point.
The comment about Yama's goons solidifies it, but the fire demon simply files it away for later to discuss with Kurama. ]
Have you discovered anything here? Or have you just been having a tantrum the entire time?
[ Red eyes narrow as if he is truly thinking about starting a pissing match at the moment but .. Yusuke changes the subject and the fire demon decides to leave well enough alone.
Kurama disagrees with everything, that is hardly a goal post. [ you know he’s right, Yusuke. And in his defense, he had been after the stupid treasures, not getting entrapped in to a tournament and knowing anyone aside from Kurama before all of this mess started.
Stupid friend chicken continues, he guesses.
Hiei’s eyes roll. ]
Fantastic work. How many head shots have those monks or Raizen landed since you showed your face in the demon world?
[There were. A lot. Let's not talk about that ok. He isn't being dumb here who COUNTS how many people they've approached for answers!!! You're the weird one Hiei!!]
[ unfortunately for Yusuke, Hiei, amped up on not knowing what this place is or what is will bring, is absolutely keeping track of who he meets and details about them. Mainly for posterity’s sake, and some for their abilities or the fact that they are demon too - ]
A blind girl that can control earth and sand to make it what she wants. She referred to my ability as being a “firebender” and can perceive energy but it is not the main source of power in her own abilities.
Another who climbed a tree with me in it to retrieve a cat for a local like a messenger boy with half of his face covered. Possibly a ninja.
A man who wore his sunglasses in the dark but is not blind, smells clearly human but claims due to other abilities that he is not. He is a meddler that feels the need to watch and prevent others from what he perceives as possible harm.
A very nosey female yokai that for some reason found it her best idea to come to the tree I was napping in and want to ask questions about scent and why I was sleeping in a tree smelling of ash.
I mostly just ran into ordinary locals so far. Though I did meet the sunglass guy! I think. He asked me if I had a "head demon", which was super weird. That's not a thing, right? I feel like it would've come up by now if it was a thing.
[ is he going to include that this task was taken on VERY reluctantly from Kurama’s need for reconnaissance? No. Absolutely not. So far as Yusuke will know, his intent had not been to ignore the fox’s directive and simply eat instead and it will stay that way.
Thankfully Hiei’s show boating is interrupted by the concept of “head demons”, red eyes blinking at Yusuke for a moment in owlish confusion.
There were many, maybe even innumerable types of demons in the world, and though Hiei is probably too young to have run in to them all at some point or another…
Head demons are new. ]
Head demons? No. That sounds like something Mukuro would keep as an oddity, at the very least.
[ A freakish pet of it was low level enough. ]
I told him I was a demon and there was no mention of that.

[Hehehe. :) You're not getting away without at least a little teasing, but at least he'll keep it short and nonspecific.]
Anyway, gimme a break, I've been here like two hours and nobody knows jack shit.
[He thinks he is entitled to his tantrum okok.]

You have a way with attracting the most moronic.
[ Kuwabara? Chuu? Hello? ]
How many others have you even spoken to?
no subject
[Hiei are you prepared to burn yourself AND Kurama with this one. Let's play idiot friends chicken.]
Maybe what, ten? Ish? I didn't keep count. A bunch.
