I read this story in one sitting. I was too anxious to take a break.
This story was as heartwrenching as it was beautiful. I loved the whole "fish who loved a bird" vibe that it had.
Some people love happy endings. But others love the wave of reality that hits them when they read angst or tragedies. However in the end they too yearn for a happy ending. You give everything in this story.
I loved the colors expressed in this story. It never got too dark or too bright. But it wasn't a balance of the two either. The tones where unbalanced in a very mysterious way. It made the story so intriguing. ( gah...trying to put what I feel into words >_<). It was kind of like going through a maze. Will there be a dead end around the corner? A way out? Or something unknown?
When I read this story, I felt like I was on an emotional rollercoaster. I presumed to know where you were going. Shame on me.
Everytime I thought it would have a sad ending, I was teased with Sesshomaru's selfish desires. Maybe, I thought, just maybe he will find some spell or potion to bind her to him. However I know that that's not your style so much. You are not one for unrealistic fairlytales. But I could not wrap my head around how it could end happily!
When Inu Tashio of all characters, (the Inu Tashio that stereotypically pops up with a loop whole and a soultion to our problems from kami himself) says that nothing can be done, I lost all hope. I knew that there would be no divine intervention, or ressurection or what not.
Then you ACTUALLY had Sesshomaru act on his selfishness! The Sesshomaru who is supposed to the logical one. The one who makes the right decisions because he is a good leader. I mean we know his character is a selfish one and that he is confident in everything he does. Usually when Sesshomaru makes seemingly rash descisions, he is confident that he will be victorious. So we don't really worry, we just trust his intuition.
But in this story Sesshomaru knew it would end badly. EVERYONE knew it would end badly. Kagome was going to grow old and die and Sesshomaru would be distraught. He would watch her wither away and not be able to do a thing about it.
This left me feeling helpless. I prepared myself to read a beautifully worded chapter, perhaps in Sesshomaru's pov, that described their short time together. Maybe even how he found her more beautiful with each passing year and each greying strand of hair.
I was ready. I was prepared for a tragic ending...
But YOU. Fool me once shame on you. Fool me twice... *shakes head*
I absolutely LOVED it! What a ride!
Yet another unique and amazing story that had me on the edge of my seat.
Bravo!
*applause*

The story was beautiful n the chapters where sesshomaru was in despair were really sad T_T especially when kagome went away I am glad it had a happy ending .... I couldn't review in between chapters coz I was so into the fic I read the whole story straight in one day ...and if it helps I would like to tell tht I always replied to your authors note at the end in my mind :P I hope tht it makes sense. .. Thank you ^_^
I'm so in love with you.
In a completely platonic way of course.
You're like... my platonic soul mate.
I'm serious.
I'm serious.
I'm so scared. I feel seriously emotionally invested.
You actually had me curled up in the fetal position for about 5 seconds because I'm so afraid of hoping.
I'm so suspicious of you right now I can't even enjoy this properly!
Curse you and your expertly woven story!
