Mako joined her a few minutes later, sipping on some tea.

She looked over to him and sighed tiredly, "Hey... we need to talk about Hime...."

"About the biting thing? Again?"

"What do you mean, 'again'?!" she exclaimed. "We didn't talk about it before at all! We still haven't figured out how to stop her from doing this again! What if next time, she seriously injures someone?!"

"Okay well then how do you suggest we go about disciplining her?! She's a baby so it's not like she's going to understand the concept of time out and I'm not laying a hand on her!"

"I don't know, Mako! Why do you think I wanted to talk to you?! I've got my hands full just trying to make sure those three don't starve or end up wallowing in their own fecal matter!"

"Are you saying I don't help enough?! That I do nothing?!" He growled. "I help as much as I can so don't act like you're the only tired one here! It's not like I'm going off to have a good time and leaving you here all miserable."

"I never said that..! I just wanted some advice!! It isn't your fault that I'm the only one who can feed them right now! I just don't know what to do, and I thought that maybe, for once, we could have a reasonable conversation, like adults!!!"

He scoffed. "Then present a solution to me cause I don't have any!"

Tears came to her eyes as she screamed in reply, "I came to you because I needed help! I don't know the first thing about what it's supposed to be like to be a damn kitsune or how the hell I'm supposed to raise one!! You're being ridiculous!"

"I've helped you with being a kitsune as much as I can, it's my fault you don't get it!"

"Well I'm sorry that I'm not as naturally gifted as you! Not everyone can be perfect and benevolent and amazing like you!!!"

He threw his hands up in the air, standing. "Well it's your own problem, then." He quickly stormed out of the house.

Shino's jaw dropped and she just watched him leave in shock. At first she was just angry, but then the anxiety started to set in. What if he didn't come back? What if she drove him away? She couldn't do this alone. As her mind raced, her airways started to close in on themselves, and she struggled for air. No matter what she did, she couldn't seem to take a proper breath, and soon she felt herself drifting from consciousness as she collapsed to the floor.

Juri came over later that night, knocking on the door. "Shino? Mako? I think we left Mimi's favorite blanket here and she can't sleep without it."

There was no response other than wailing from the nursery.

Juri looked confused, sliding the door open. "Shino...?"

Shino was lying unconscious, face-down on the floor in the main room, barely breathing.

Juri shrieked, quickly grabbing her. "Sh-Shino...?! Wake up!"
|
|

Post by Aurelia on Jan 18, 2018 22:19:40 GMT -5
Shino did not stir. Her face was pale, and her lips were a sickly shade of blue. In the other room, Hime was screaming at the top of her lungs, as was Hina.

Juri began to panic, running to go get the two babies. "Shino, wake up! They need you!"
|

Hime reached desperately towards her mother, but Shino still did not wake up. Hina buried her little face in Juri's shoulder and continued to cry.

Juri continued to panic before setting the babies down, beginning to pump on her chest.

Hime crawled desperately towards her mother, and Hina followed after her. Shino continued to be unresponsive, and her heartbeat had already slowed down to a crawl.

Juri began to cry, her tears falling onto Shino's face. As she cried, Shino morphed into an older woman, someone who was clearly dead. She cried over this woman too, though she couldn't see their face and she didn't know who she was. Hime's cries turned into the cries of another unknown baby and Juri found herself in another home entirely. The vision lasted only a moment before she was back in Mako's home, her heart beating quickly.

Shino gasped raggedly and opened her eyes weakly, but was unable to move or speak.

Juri breathed heavily for a few moments before shaking her head, looking at Shino. "Sh-Shino...!"

She opened her mouth to try to say something, but could only wheeze. Hime continued wailing, and scooted closer to Shino again.

"Y-Your babies need you." She handed Hime to Shino, frowning. "Please..."

Shino struggled to take a shallow breath. Still unable to move, she couldn't hold Hime properly, and so the infant kitsune flopped down on top of her and grabbed at her hair desperately.
