Not that it really mattered, he just found the two of them a bit odd. Even as the delicious aroma of the stew met his nose, a moment before his stomach could growl, Kagome dropped a plate of bread down in front of him as Sango did the same with the butter. He only stated at them for a moment in silence before buttering the bread and biting into the freshly baked goodness.
Taking a sip of his lemonade to wash it down, he barely even had the chance to realize it was empty before one of them was already refilling the cup. Glancing up quick enough to see Sango turning back to her current task of stirring the stew, Renkotsu decided to let his curiosity win out. "How do you do that?" he questioned, not bothering to elaborate on what he was referring to.
"Woman's intuition," the two of them replied simultaneously before glancing over at each other to smile before turning back to their work. Shaking his head, he turned back to his snack; figuring he would never understand it anyway. Finishing it quickly, he moved to put his dishes on the counter, only to find they had disappeared while he was busy standing up.
"Thank you," he said honestly, without bothering to try and figure out which one of them had been the one to remove them, before turning to make his way back outside. Instead, just as he was about to reach the door, he found the others coming inside, now dried off and dressed, and Inuyasha gestured for him to follow them. Nodding to the women, he followed the others deeper into the house and soon found himself standing in the den where Sesshoumaru was lighting a fire in the hearth.
Gesturing for them to take a seat, Inuyasha waited until they had done so before sitting down on the arm of a nearby chair; remaining silent until Sesshoumaru had finished and say down beside him. "Because we had so many people drop out on the cattle drive before we returned, we had a lot more work to do between us and it became far more difficult than we had anticipated. However, it also means that you have to split the money between fewer people.
