amazing! quite the ride and i loved every moment of it

I want to something purely constructive: a beta reader would help this fic a ton. Your storyline is lovely and has such potential. I like that you added your own substance, backgrounds and characters. But there were many times that it was difficult to discern what was being written because of the typos and random breaks in sentences.

My personal qualm is that the entire story was spent leading up to a culmination that was, very unfortunately, summed up in about two paragraphs. I will admit, this made me feel mildly bereft as I was rooting for them the whole time only to realize that I wasn't going to get the ending I yearned for as a fan and reader. It just felt like an abrupt ending and I wish there was more. If you ever feel like extending your ending, know I will definitely read it because this was such a lovely story.

Anyway, thanks for your contribution to this pairing!! I hope to see your hiatus story continued when you're able to.

I have enjoyed the ride that your story has taken me on. You have used common tropes and plot lines of the Sessh/ Kag pairing and woven them into a well crafted story. I loved the use of the Hanahaki Disease to add melancholy and tension to the story.  The characters that you added are well rounded and interesting. You gave the characters that we know and love from Inuyasha more dimension and layers while staying true to the original characters, which is a hard thing to do but you have a grade "A" job of it.  It has been such a delight to read your story and I am sad that it is over. The ending was satisfying and I look forward to reading another story by you. 

Haven't read the full story yet but from what I just scanned this has like no smut? Then why's it rated MA? M would have been just fine. It's misleading. It looks like it would have been an interesting story to read but I came with the intention of reading smut so..... Typically I don't mind reading stories with none but that's by choice. This isn't it. I'll save it for another time

Damn right!!! You go Kagome!

Oh yay!!! I'm so glad it worked out for them, great job!!! I'm sorry for your loss! Good luck with your portfolio!! I don't know how portfolios work. As far as being able to show people before it's done in fear that it'll get copied or what. But I hope you share your art with us!! If you have a page with your artwork I'd love to see & support! As for your new story, I think that people may have really liked the previous version. I would say, for those people who did like it as is, to leave it be. And repost this updated version as a new story. A 2.0 version. I look forward to more of your work! 

I'd choose option D: mark the first version as discontinued and keep it until you complete the new version, at least. I'd add a note in the old version for your followers, explaining everything, so that they can try and find the new one. Thanks. 

Now that I've seen how hard Sesshomaru had to have his head beaten, and how sweetly he revealed his love for Kagome, I want to see the 'Lost Chapter' of how she would have died.  I understand if you don't want to ruin this story, but I love a good tragedy almost as much as I do the love stories.  Either way, this is a fantastic story, and you did a wonderful job with it.  Thank you!

This has been a spectacular story!  I hope you finish it soon!

Rereading this to get my fix to tide me over until you update. I can't wait to read the final chapter!! I'm so happy you decided to give this a happier ending, I confess your original ending would have left me very unsatisfied because I'm a sucker for happy endings! Happy writing :) 

You are making me cry, I so love what you are doing to this story. Please don't stop. I can't wait to see how it ends.

Hello, I really like this story of yours. I was wondering if you could either add a few chapters to your story before the ending that shows Sesshomaru's POV through this story or make a sort of sequel that is Sesshomaru's POV of it. I think it would be kind of cool if the last chapter was of Sesshomaru's POV and be frantic over what he read in her letter. Would it be possible to have Sesshomaru burst into the gazebo when Kagome has only a minute or two left before she dies and confesses to her?

I love this story and can’t wait for the ending. I love the relationship and dynamic of Sess and Kagome with Ichiro has such a great personality himself. 

I think I would've liked it bette did you did kill her. Even if she's brought back by Tenseiga would've been cool. I'm not complaining though I'm a sucker for happy endings! Good luck on your exam! I don't remember you mentioning it, but I'm sure you have, or I would've said so sooner! I'm sad this is ending but it was good! Please update soon! 

yes i loved this chapter

No the chapter was fitting loved it actually a real tender moment in time when Kagome won and wanted to Sesshomaru's place.  I wonder what she wrote to him... Can't wait to read the next chapter...

Absolutely looking forward to the next chapter!

I'm also from the Caribbean! So nice to know Dokuga has Caribbean writers! Good luck in your CAPE exams! 

Yessss!! Finally some physical action between them to spice it up! And hopefully figure out each others feelings!

What a convenient way to get in her panties before he dies lmaooo men are something else. Please update soon! 

Looking forward to this cleansing. hopefully some orgasms will knock some sense into both of them
