This is amazing!
it’s her first night back yet he can’t believe it
“that just eats away at my feelings man”
you said it
I’ve always thought of how tragic Kaede’s childhood was, she lost her sister and Inuyasha all at the same time and had to grow up quickly to become the next village miko. Thinking about how she was probably lonely with her sister gone. And man I also think about how Inuyasha would always sit by her when she’s weeding or just sits in with her in her hut like that eats away at my feelings man. Please do NOT repost on any other social media without my say so.
Inuyasha crying at Kikyou's final death is very moving but I think it's important to remember that by his own admission, he would not have been able to cry for her, before. It's only thanks to Kagome that he feels comfortable enough with himself to cry at all and show vulnerability to others. That's what really makes that moment beautiful to me. (Though in a bittersweet way, obviously.)
I also want to focus on the "What true strength and kindness is" line because to me this implies Kagome is the paragon of strength and kindness that Inuyasha wanted to model himself after. Obviously we all know that potential was already in him and Kagome coaxed it out and praised it from him, but I think it's really beautiful to hear Inuyasha thought of Kagome as his role model, in a way. After all, being brave in order to help people WAS one of the first compliments Inuyasha ever admitted to himself about her.

Chapter Summary: Inuyasha finally gets one of his questions answered. Why did Kagome really leave the barrier?
After a brief hiatus due to Covid I am back at it! Every chapter I put out is a humble reminder of the amount of work and thought it takes to put a story to words. It makes me even more grateful for the writers I admire!

Summary: Some progress is made in the search for Suikotsu.
Lol I'm no good at writing summaries. I am back after a long hiatus! I fully thought I could keep a schedule writing this while dealing with some big life and work changes, but I was wrong! However, things have stabilized for me and now I'm writing again. I can't promise regular updates - but I do have most of chapter 11 written and chapter 12 outlined. Happy to be back and telling this story.
Eye of the Typhoon, Chapter 4 is up!
Fic Summary: InuKag romance adventure set in a future dystopian Tokyo.
Kagome Higurashi has lived her whole life within the protective barrier that envelopes Tokyo. When she decides to leave, she's exposed to the districts and people living in its shadow. Inuyasha is a street smart half demon who's spent his life getting by whatever way he can. Somehow he ends up responsible for a spoiled girl from the barrier city, who has no idea what she's gotten herself into.
Chapter summary: Kagome finally gets some fresh air.

Hi there! Since I missed my personal goal of posting every other week, I just wanted to say that I have been visiting family and haven’t found time to write. Story is not on hiatus :) stay tuned for chapter 5!

Summary: Kagome meets Miroku
Shit's about to get real for our heroes! Act 1 is wrapping up soon and I'm so excited to share what I've got planned.
I have a new rule which is that before I post a chapter, the next chapter needs to have its shitty first draft at least 80% done. Maybe this means I'll be able to stick to a schedule :)
love me a scary good guy
It's a good thing Inuyasha plays the hero because otherwise he'd be scary
Sometimes this community is overwhelmingly beautiful. Having lurked for years I am fully aware that each of you has been honing your own personal magic with dedication and skill. I am in awe of you.
Its so intimidating to try and express your self in a new way. Every day that I feel like I should just stop trying to write, log out of my accounts, and quit pretending to be something I'm not. Then I remind myself that this has been something I have wanted to do for years.
If I had stared then, where would I be now?
If I stop now I will never get there.
Don't let depression win.
I updated my story!
Thanks to everyone who read Chapter 1! I had to build up courage to start writing and then to share this story online. I told myself, that even if no one reads it, this is something I’d like to do for myself. The nice folks reading, commenting, and leaving kudos have been such a wonderful, really encouraging and sweet bonus that I did not expect! Thank you so much!
I am hoping to be able to post new chapters every one to two weeks, but no promises!
