Hi all!
Searching for a fic that's a little older, where Sesshoumaru is temporarily blinded by InuYasha and he says that Kagome has to help him to pay back the debt. Over the course of the story, Kagome travels with him and meets people she would've meet if she'd stayed with InuYasha (like Sango, Miroku, Kouga, etc) but she doesn't befriend them. The author had mentioned in a note at the bottom of the story that she wanted to be more realistic. Nobody befriends people that tried to kill them before.
I also believe that Sesshoumaru found Kagome and they started traveling together in the first place, because InuYasha abandoned Kagome early on in their quest in the fic.
Really would appreciate any help.
