Awesome post as always. I do love Botan's difficulty explaining her feelings, but you know what I REALLY love? The knowing smile Shiori gave them when they were about to leave. YEAH SHE KNOWS THEY'RE UP TO SOMETHING TOGETHER. SHE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT BUT A MOTHER CAN DREAM! And I loved Botan's frustration at the homework. We've all been there Botan xD Oh god my heart at Botan crying from exhaustion >.< I always thought Botan's frustration with homework would be the same thing Kurama would feel about reaping. Good people who's lives were cut short due to such BULLSHIT. I want him to sit beside her when she's close to breaking, so she at least has a shoulder to cry on. He'll definitely help out. Yusuke and Kuwabara wouldn't last a friggin' day doing what she does daily. Botan's a BEAST!
