Hey Dokugians,
Some time ago I read an amazing fic that I stumbled upon after going down a rec rabbit hole, and I failed to favorite and bookmark it, so now I'm in actual, physical pain because it was SO GOOD and I don't remember the name at all, total blank because I read so many that day.
In the fic, Kagome is dealing with traditional Kagome existential dilemmas (I believe her and Inu's relationship was a non-started in this one) and during her musings happens upon Sesshomaru riding in a palaquin, dressed in fine(r) demon wear and smoking, an ope pipe I believe? I think he was traveling from a fancy demon occasion. I think Kag notices he has an earring? He pulls her into the flying demon palanquin, they chat, ultimately he offers that they "blow off some steam" together because they're both like, repressed and wound tight and miserable. Kagome is very shocked at his forwardness and his openness to the arrangement with a human, but accepts.
bada bing, bada boom, feelings are caught, They dance around each other literally and figuratively, I think they attend some sort of social event and they are def drinking sake. I just remember Kagome delivers that A+ banter, Sesshomaru gives as good as he gets but eventually her teasing reaches a breaking point and he snaps when she tries to seduce him a bit and wait for him in his tent later. Smutty goodness follows.
I just remember loving their dialogue and characterizations so much in this fic. Is this ringing bells for anyone?
