S t a s i s...it finally ends. Sesshoumaru's objective is for Kagome to become as obsessed as he is with her. So he wants her love and her hatred to be solely his that is why her love is never his objective because it won't be enough for him. He wants her to take him as more than a man, more than a monster. He wants to be her sole reason for living and dying. He wants to be her god in every meaning of the word as much as he wants to be her demon, absolutely consuming her every moment, her every thought whether awake or asleep, alive or dead. Because that is what Kagome is to him. He would not share her with anything or anyone, not even her family and most importantly not with her child thus the true reason why he won't let her keep the child because to keep it would mean to share. Her freedom in the past centuries is a lie, she knew that he knew her freedom to mingle is nothing more than a reminder of what she can never get. He wants Kagome, regardless in what form or way she ended up with him as long as she is his. This is a true obsession and possession. He does not care for others, like in his POV Abbandon, nothing else matters. Not power nor conquest, not wealth nor freedom. Not even his mother or his grandfather and their schemes nor his murdered heir. Like a true monster, he is completely Kagome's as much as he is hers. Except this line of thinking is only Sesshoumaru's and not Kagome's. The fear he felt back during Kagome's confrontation with the Shikon Jewel is the fear that she will choose to break the bond he created, that she will choose her freedom over him because Sesshoumaru does not fear death. That is why he is filled with triumph when he said she chose him, why he is elated when she said she dreamed of him. Kagome is his and his alone and he would not have it any other way...

Thank you for the depression inducing story, now I will go to my corner and wait for you to update the other favourite story of yours I am waiting. I hope it won't be as dark or depressing as this one. Keep on writing!!

I've been meaning to send you a message for a while now, but RL kept getting in my way. Le sigh.

How have you been, Char? I just read that you're on hiatus, and that made me get off my butt, and finally type this long overdue message. I know it mustn't have been an easy decision. I actually respect you for taking time off instead of forcing yourself to write words and dying in the process. I know how it feels like to stretch yourself too thin while trying to please everyone. Just know that we're here for you, and I'll be waiting for those updates whenever they come.

Just wanted to say that I miss you and your writing is lovely and there's talent here, so take your time and deal with all the stuff going on in your life right now. Then come back to us.

Thanks for commenting in my fanart :3

Hiya, Char! How have you been? I hope all's well on your side of the world.

Thank you so much for all your lovely reviews lately! I adore you!! :3 *glomps you*

I'm so happy you enjoyed Day's Dawning! I love historical fiction, but sadly it requires too much research to get into that. Phooey... Well, a simple short story is easy enough, though.

And I'm thrilled you're liking Falling!! You make me blush with your praise all the damn time! You dun need my brain, yours is lovely, too lovely, actually! I'm in love with it! *pets the Char brain*

Obsession is fun to write, perhaps too fun. Lol As for Sesshomaru's portrayal, I like to be versatile, so I usually change his character in different fics for variety. I gotta admit, I'm rather partial to this fwoom here, though.

And, girl, you're killing me in S t a s i s!! You must update like...yesterday! Things are getting so delicious and dark! Ah, the angst, it kills me! Sooo gooood!!

Transgressions is next on my reading list when I get some alone time for reading. Can't wait for their reunion!

Hope you're having a great time! Dun overstress yourself! :3 *hugs*

P.S. I had to edit the italics out. XDDD

Girl, how have you been?? I've missed you!! :3

I've been meaning to send you a message for a while now, but RL has been crazy these months. I've been meaning to read that S t a s i s update, too, but I can't find a moment of peace to do it *sighs* I will soon though. I just like to read when I'm calm, not a stress-filled bomb on the precipice of explosion.

Thank you so much for your review on Blood Ties! I'm glad you enjoyed the personality reversal! I'm tired of writing the same things, you know? I think that's another reason why I stopped updating besides not having time for recreational writing. It saddens me to leave it as a one-shot though. T.T There was history there...maybe I'll come back to it later.

Anyway, I babbled enough! I hope you're doing great and things are perfect on your end of the world!!

As always, your lovely detailed reviews on Pride is a Barren Mountain give me life.

What is air.

Char, thank you so much for your lovely review on "Tacenda"! I'm beyond thrilled that you enjoyed it! Yes, you were right, it's a cycle that can't be broken, for centuries now. I wish I could make it a story, but no time. Editing and formatting is eating at my soul. T.T

I hope your mother is feeling better and isn't stressing that arm. I wish her a swift recovery!

P.S. I see an update on S t a s i s! Woo! I know what I'll be reading later today!

Hey, Char. How are you?
I'm guessing you're going to read my A/N today, and I wanted to apologize in person. I did take readers' feelings into consideration and agonized over this decision - a lot. Your comments did play a part in this as well, so I wanted to thank you besides apologizing. I'm really sorry things turned out this way. ighs:
Anyway, I can't really express how much I loved your reviews and I'm going to miss them like you wouldn't believe! *hearts*

Thanks so much for the thoughtful review on Pride is a Barren Mountain! And pack dynamics are always my favorite part of characterizing Sesshoumaru, so definitely expect more exploration in that direction in this fic. I'm making up little teaching rhymes for him to possibly to say to Shippou and everything. XD

I've officially taken over your wall! Ah, well, we Greeks love to conquer things, can't help my nature.

Thank you sooo much for your amazing feedback! I do believe I kind of squealed when I opened my e-mail and saw your reviews all piled up and waiting for me. At least that's what my man told me as he gave me a strange stare then shook his head at my giddiness. Bwahaha!

I'm beyond thrilled that you liked Kagura's addition to the story. I simply adore her, and she's going to make things a hell of a lot more interesting. Trust me on that one.

And, you... update soon? Yes, no, maybe... please? *luffs on you*
