this chapter was so'sad.  i believe its time for katashi to take a trip to start healing the lovy love ?   any way,  your descriptions are so nice that one can picture the people doing the story .   

My heart cries for Takashi.

I feel so bad for Takashi :(!

But these things just happen. He's a strong youkai though I'm sure he will pull through. Perhaps you can have another character catch his fancy and he'll be able to get over Kagome quicker that way? I don't think he even tried to actively persue her or anything. Moving onto my favorite couple however...ugh they are just so cute! Congratulations Sesshou's Secret Admirer for creating the cutest Dokuga Sess/Kag pairing EVER~! I'm glad to see them getting even closer.

Interesting however how you have them getting closer...but then as soon as they return to the Western citadel you tear them apart again. I suppose this seperation will test their bonds more than ever now. But I couldn't but think no, no, why can she not go with him or something? Or why would that take MONTHS? Then I realized that Japan is kind of big but still. Speaking of Sesshoumaru being gone though where is the fabulous Neikan? Just like Naraku he's gone off crying like a baby and no one knows where he is! I thought perhaps he had gone off to terrorize the North or the East? After healing of course. And will chase the people out of those castles and use their castles instead of the south? Then the North would have to stay at the East citadel or vice versa and then both sides would band together with South and West to defeat the diabolical Neikan. Oh gosh what am I doing I'm writing out the next part of the plot for you XD Don'd mind me its just that things are really becoming interesting and there are still unanswered questions! Plus there's still Kagome's old friends, surely they'd eventually know about the insane death youkai plaguing Japan, right?

By the way you have to find Neikan as soon as possible. I want his autograph hehe. As usual I love your swift updates! Keep up this exciting pace I feel like things are about to spark even more and I'm anticipating reading it all! Cheers~

so romantic......  but poor cousin  need to find him a girlfriend,  you know for the happy ending.  love is in the air.

kagome and sesshomaru ,be accepted that they are in love 

Far away you can hear the shouts of, "Timber!"

I feel sorry for Takashi, but Kagome never did express more then friendship.  Maybe another will catch Takashi eye.  How old is Rin, again?  Perhaps, Rin will be the one to heal his pain And perhaps a relationship will blossom in the process.

I love that Sesshomaru and Kagome are finally starting to identify something is going on between them.  I love how you're slowly bringing them together.  Keep up the great work!

I was SO hoping for a goodbye kiss between Kagome and Sesshomaru! This was another chapter wonderfull written!

Brava!

Next, keep it coming. 

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! TT-TT That last part was really painful to read, poor Takashi, my heart hurts for you my dear (although I am happy for Sesshomaru and Kagome) still, I didnt know it would hurt so much to see his reaction towards their now blossoming relationship!. Now please, if you'll excuse me. I will be overthere crying my eyes out in a dark corner for poor Takashi (curls up fetal position, and rocks back and forward) TT.TT (as always, great chapter, makes my day....today more like ruined it, but in a good way O.o ... )

it's great. keep the story till the end ne?

i just hope takashi wouldn't on neikan's side, or neikan wouldn't success to menipulate takashi through takashi's heartbreak...

Aww.Poor Takashi:-(

*falls out of my chair*

You stop it THERE?!  Ack, it was just starting to get steamy!!!!

I cannot WAIT for more - this will, for sure, get an award!

Like, keep it coming. 

very well written chapter!!! love it!

Well well, finally only SEVENTEEN chapters he gets it!

Oh I'm just kidding. I know for some it takes even longer and so for Sesshoumaru this is impressive, I love it! I would hope that he realized this after how irate and overprotective he was of her in chapter 16. This was a sweet chapter you wrote. I was relieved that Kagome had managed to survive without having to be revived by tensaiga (I don't care if I spelled it incorrectly, whatever). I felt so bad for poor Rin though! Sesshoumaru had her worrying herself to death by not letting ANYONE else check in on Kagome! And she had had to deal with being kidnapped by psychotic Neikan too hehe, oh gosh~ but I speculate how Takashi will react to how Sesshoumaru feels about Kagome? Will he become enraged or will he despair? Ugh I'm dying to know. I'll just say again that you are awesome for updating as swiftly as you do with such great chapters! I'm dying to know how Sesshoumaru will court Kagome too and how he'll confess his feelings to her because I'm sure she is ignorant of how he feels anyway.

But the real shock came at the ON YOUR KNEES part. I was like... what the hell. My jaw dropped though when Sesshoumaru DID NOT have them killed! I was 100% expecting that to happen and then Kagome jumps out of the window or something to stop him, showing her compassion and whatnot to stop the execution (I mean it happens so many times in other fanfictions...) but once again you surprise me, well done ^_^. Looks like Kagome really has changed him and this is another great way you have portrayed that change in him.

As usual I'm looking forward to the next one! Please keep up this fantastic work~

very entertaining

interesting chapter very intertaining

Loved the last two chapters. I'm interested to see how Takashi will react to no one allowed in Kagome's room but Sesshomaru. Can't wait for the next update.
