I don't want to be mean or misunderstood but I have to say this...
This fic started out great, honestly. A bit confusing about the forest part and about walking for one hour even though your descriptions didn't make me feel the time passing by in the story (in other words, you didn't convey it well), but it was going well nonetheless.
The part where you say something about Sesshoumaru not knowing why he was travelling in a carriage when he could fly instead was simply ridiculous but kinda funny -- you could have given out a reason about Culture and Society making him do so or the-so.
But then... It got really ridiculous...
What kind of idiot is about to die and starts lusting for a guy she doesn't even know AND to top it all, she's a virgin. Did you know that usually virgins don't play around with a guy unless she has some feelings for him? Well, virgins who are decent and educated. Plus, a courtesan like Kagome begging for him to touch her? Where in hell is her pride? Her dignity? That's not Kagome. She didn't even see his face when she looked up at him!
I don't think the lemon is in place and if you wrote this just for the sake of putting a fic on Dokuga, well I think you would deserve some flaming. Not that I wish it upon you...
By the way, this is not flaming. This is constructive criticism. Yes, I didn't want to be mean but I ended up being mean because it's so... frustrating! Seeing such potential in a fic with all the political issues and the rich cultural background (the brothel, courtesans, marriage between two royal families, etc) but then! It all goes down the drain just because Sesshoumaru licked Kagome's back.
You're completely free to ignore this and keep writing the way you write. Who am I to judge anyway, right?
Best of luck.
I wish this fic had gone differently.
Krazy
PS. you're free to PM me with anything you want; whether it's to help you out (even though I doubt you will want my help) or if you want to blow some steam at me because I took the time to read and review your story and be honest about it.
Love it! update soon!!!
