Well, I know Yusuke is blunt and all, but I cannot ever see a scene like THAT happening. There are just some things that are too over the top for Yusuke, and I think that is one of them. That and I am next to positive that Kurama would never allow anyone to just give him a grope down there, even on an experimental basis.
Your concept is fairly on though eartianwerewolf... Kurama is the one person I could see Yusuke exprimenting with. The most I could ever see though woul be some kind of awkward kiss... I think it's more fitting to each of their personalities. OR I could see Yusuke just getting out and out frusterated and grabbing Kurama and kissing him... Yusuke is a rather "act now think later" kind of guy.

Yeah that'd be more of a funny- this would never happen but hahahahahaha thing.
Yeah they work well on certain points. But I adore Keiko too much I guess. She waited 3 dang years for that boy! 3!!!!
But I do say it's very plausible...given the right circumstances. Just like Hiei and Kurama would be if certain things came into play. I can also see ways in which things would work better for Kurama with Yusuke rather than Hiei.
Aren't you glad I'm not one of those uber crazy rabid pairing fans who won't admit that other things are plausible? XD H
Though I do tend to get aggressive if someone mentions Hiei X Kuwabara..That's just....no...
Maybe Kuwabara and Kurama or even Kuwabara and Yusuke..but not Hiei and Kuwabara. They don't hate each other, but they certainly would never even think of doing anything with ...just no.
iei and Kurama is still my fav fan pairing but I am more warmed up to the idea of Kurama and Yusuke than I was.

Well I admit it was hard for me to get around the whole Keiko thing when I first started liking the Yusuke/Kurama pairing myself. I myself am a die hard fan of the Yusuke and Keiko pairing and feel about as strongly as you do in regards to her waiting those three years for him eartianwerewolf.
Slowly but surely though that little yaoi fangirl that I have burried deep inside of me pounded her way out and insisted that Yusuke and Kurama would be an adoreable pairing. I just started seeing a connection between those two that I didn't see with anyone else in the group of four boys... I mean if you REALLY want to stretch it, Yusuke is about as self-sacrificial for Kurama, as Keiko is for Yusuke (I refer to the fact that she ran into a burning building at risk of her own life to rescue his body)... although I do say I am pushing it with that statement. I mean, Yusuke as we find out is just naturally self sacrificial... He threw himself in front of that car to save the little boy with out a second thought, and admited that he jumped in a little too fast with the incident involving Kurama and the Forlorn Hope.
I am not sure why it is, but I just see a deeper level of care between Yusukle and Kurama... in the groupf of four boys that is, because the care he has for Keiko is of course much greater. Yusuke and Kurama seem understand each other on some level and I think mean a great deal to each other, even if of course they would never admit it. Sure there are hints between Kurama and Hiei, and they have a connection to one another too, however I just see the bond between Yusuke and Kurama as being stronger, and that might come from their connection to one another through the Forlorn Hope.
Blarg, I hope at least some of that makes sense... The heat wave where I live is making it incredibly hard to be coherent.

I have to agree. I can wax poetic all I like about the pairing, but some of the foundation remains that bond between them. It's almost a je ne sais quoi, in that I don't know if I can describe it properly.
I guess maybe there's just a raw edge, almost a kind of desperation in the way he acts around Kurama, even sometimes when they're not fighting and he's not having to try to save him or watch him almost get killed. There's a tension, and it's a tension that's not present between any other characters. I'm not saying it's UST, but it's definitely strong, and it's one of the defining factors in their interactions.

Yeah, I know what you mean about the desperation. Yusuke hardly makes one or two jokes about Kurama in the entire series when the others are all targets. (And, to further insinuate, the only joke I can remember Yusuke making about Kurama was a sexual one--"Spreading your seeds, Kurama?" when they're trying to find a way through the maze before Demon's Door Cave. Kurama responds with something about "phosphorescent breadcrumbs.")
Kuwabara is the only one of the three (the only male on the entire show, save a few exceptions) that I view as completely straight. I simply cannot see him in any other light.
...was that a challenge? I dunno. Go on, convince me. XD

Hahaha. Yeah, I definitely HAVE noticed that. Yusuke just doesn't TEASE Kurama. It's kinda frightening for me. o__O;
As for Kuwabara, as InkMistress knows in the least (I kinda forced her to follow me up on this as well ^^; ) I read this REALLY AMAZING KuwabaraxKurama fan fic in which it really just describes it as Kuwabara kinda clueless as to what's happening, it just kinda does. Haha XD
Though I do have to agree, nonetheless, that Kuwabara just loves a good girl. He wants to the breadwinner and stuff and have a nice little housewife. : ) And it's pretty obvious throughout the series that Kuwabara just likes females. That's who he's attracted to.
Now as for Kurama attracted to Kuwabara, I can actually see, just because in the Japanese dub, he uses "-kun" after his name, a sign of affection, and, I don't know, Kurama just favored him rather quickly.
Then again, it was the first friendship we've ever really seen build between Kurama and another character without some big catastrophe to influence it (i.e. Yusuke and Hiei), so I can definitely see that maybe they really are just friends.
HOWEVER, I don't support really any pairings with Kuwabara and a guy, just because, like I said, he's so straight to me. If it was forced, I could only see it with Kurama. : )

Yusuke and Kurama do have a bond just like Hiei and Kurama do- both are different though...Kurama could be more human around Yusuke as well as being demon too. With Hiei you have to be careful with how "human" you get- aka sentimental, etc. I'm not saying Hiei can't be sentimental ^-^ It'd just take more work. XD The relationship with Yusuke would be more relaxed, while Hiei might be tense...
Kuwabara and Kurama..Well, it's not impossible... Kuwabara is pretty darn straight though XD Case in point- His reaction to the relationship between Itsuki and Sensui.
Speaking of Itsuke and Sensui...why are there not more fanfics about them? crying

Because, in my opinion at least, there's not too too much to work with when it comes to Sensui and Itsuki. I mean, they're entire story was pretty much told. I guess someone could do AU or something, but yeah...With me there's just no real motivation for me to write a fic about them. Sure I respect the couple, but it seemed...I don't know. Lol : )
Maybe I'll tackle it one day. Just for YOU, eartianwerewolf. ; D

Yay! hahaha
Yes their story was told, but there is so much that ISN'T known! Not a long one, but maybe just short little scenes or something....like Itsuki is looking back on Sensui's life or something.

The only thing I can think of is a sort of Missing Moment fic that better describes the way they met, how they became friends, and how they became teammates. Otherwise...there's not much left to say about them. Though Sensui is interesting to me because I don't see how someone could really, seriously convince himself that humans are all amazingly good without being blind or retarded.

Yes. THAT.
I have never understood the basis for Sensui's outlook, because it just plain doesn't make psychological sense, unless he's got some kind of major disorder (and I'm not talking about the MPD, which . . . doesn't work that way).
But, my issues with Sensui's handling aside, I would kind of like to see a fic that detailed some of his time with Itsuki. We get to see their first meeting, when Sensui decides not to kill him even though he's a demon, but we get very little of their actual time together as Tantei once Itsuki starts helping him.

Yes! Yes exactly!!!I wanna see them together...even if it's just a fic about a case they did or something...Something! Yu Yu often gives you peeks into other character's lives, but doesn't tell you everything.
Sensui saw demons since he was a kid....that'd mess up my perceptions..
Someone could even do a fic about how Sensui grew up! There is so much that can be written on! And yet.....fics seem all the same crying . I think I just have bad luck with fics when I finally decide to read some...I always get the crappy ones.

I think Sensui developed his early outlook on life simply because he WAS the victim of so many demon attacks and I think since he was such an individual in his powers and such that the only person he could really relate to was the race as a whole. So because he was a victim, the entire race became the victim, and victims, by definition, are innocent.
And I think drastic judgment was just in his personality. I mean, looked at how quickly he flipped around from saying "All humans good. All demons bad." to "All demons better. All humans bad."

Except that doesn't make sense either.
Drastic judgment being a part of his personality is a distinct possibility, and even being unable to relate to individual humans is plausible, but he was already shown to be capable of recognizing -- and valuing -- individually-determined morals. The very fact that he spared Itsuki is telling, given that he saw a link between Itsuki and humanity. If he could see a link that readily, it makes absolutely no sense that he was unable to see any links going the opposite direction, where humans did distinctly "demonic" things. Japan, while a polite society, isn't the nicest one around, and the school system is downright cruel.
I suppose I just gripe because Sensui is clearly shown to be capable of interpreting shades of gray . . . until he suddenly isn't, and that's why he becomes a villain.
