Hey there, I'm reviewing (though I've only read about 14 chaps of the story, thanks to a hideously slow computer)...oh, and I jumped ahead to the chapter AN (gomen!).
First though, the story.
I'm not sure what captured my attention about this story. I'm an Inu-yasha fanfic fan as a general rule (most pairings, at least, just couldn't wrap my head around some of the more extreme pairings *coughInuSessKikyoNarakuetalcough* (heh, heck of a hairball, sorry ;) ) and I've read a fair share, some good, some bad. But I sunk my teeth into your story without realizing what I was getting into, and now I find myself slugging it out with a slow computer just to be able to read a little bit further into this story in my spare time. I know it sounds egotistical on my part, but that's really saying something from me; I'm an extremely avid reader, but if something does not capture my attention intellectually (any good lemon or lime aside), then I cannot be interested whether it's just a quick one-shot pwp or an epic 50-chapter story, and I would most certainly not put aside other activities just to read it. You've written a capturing, captivating story, one that got my attention, one that goes into the depths of emotions that ANY couple in love could (and usually do) feel, and one that makes me truly believe that these are the true spirit of Takahashi-sensei's characters (if only this weren't a 16-up manga, I do believe that these characters would be getting into a lot more situations like this :D ). That's rare for a fanfic author to achieve. Congratulations, and please continue.
Now, my piece of mind on flamers...
*a chocobo raps her smartly on the head and kweh's warningly*
Oh...all right, Gella, I promise I won't go too far. *grumble take all my fun away, you feather-brained...*
*ahem* I have said it before, and I don't believe this will be the last time I will say it...BASICS! As Ton-chan says, BASICS! A review is meant to either show an author your praise of their work, or CONSTRUCTIVELY CRITICIZE to allow that work to improve! If you really feel the buring, aching, undeniable need to toast an author personally, or about anything unrelated to that work, DON'T...or at least have the ba...*ahem* guts to leave an e-mail addy so that it can be properly responded to, or simply air your grievences via e-mail. Anyone who cannot is considered a coward and should go back to Fanfics: writing and reviewing 101. BASICS!
Well, I think that about covers it...within tolerance. Mata ne.
:D

I am having the exact same question that Miroku and Sango are having. Shouldn't Kagome be worried of hurting Inuyasha? But then again, she doesn't know how great her potential is. I have a feeling this potential will play an important (or not) role in this fic. Too bad Inuyasha can't tell Kagome why he is so understanding of her supposed betrayal, even if only Kagome thinks so. Well, love, peace, and chicken grease until next time.

one more review for hte list! You were awesome as usual, such easy lyrical conversation and words that leap out and make you take each one in stride. Really, for me, when a story flows like water in movement, it is talented. Thanks once more for sating my fanfiction fix! (I try to read only the good ones) You said there may be limey stuff in the next chatper! Between Yash and Kagome hopefully (shudders) Naraku is a piece of work that should go to seven hells forever! I dearly hope Kagome won't....be a threat to Inuyasha. That was a sense of foreboding!

YM, hey again, I'm so uber-happy that you were able to post another chappie up recently (I never doubted ya!) I must say, I really do enjoy you not rushing to any steamy scenes even though its been awhile :) but that's just because you are, in my honest opinion as a fellow writer myself, a very intune fanfiction author who knows how well your writing skills are and how to apply 'em. Now, I'm not trying to seen goofy, but really--I like a lot of your chosen diction and have even reread many chapters because the flow of them really make me get into a story like no tomorrow LOL! I appreciate you responding to me and all of the other "reviewees" because feedback both ways is a definite plus in my book :)
I will always be patiently (...well not always patiently, he he) waiting for your next update and I understand completely how sometimes stuff happens, simply said. This chapter was actually not bad because it spent nothing but its whole time diggin' into the minds of our dear troubled hanyou & miko couple trying to make sense of this crazy, crazy world. Heh, well, until next time--u r awesome, bud!

Again, I'm sorry for not reviewing before this...but I promise to from now on, if you'll let me!
Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU SO MUCH for your hard work!!!
I anxiously await the next chapter.... :)

...You......you... you "luv" me? AND you Posted! Oh My God. Oh. My. FLEEPIN'. GOD. Bow everyone. Bow to this wonderful YM.
Anyway, I apologize for not reviewing the last chapter, chapter twenty. And after I said that I feel bad when not reviewing each chapter. -_- But yes, I agree, Kagura rocks. :D XD(She kicks major ass! !! !!!11!111!!!!!!1!!!!) Ha ha, Kikyou masturbating. :P :S ><
Oooohhhhhh, what an ironic, horrible, bad-ass question at the end. ^^ Yaaay! Lime next chapter! I love your limes. And I liked the walk back tot eh villiage when Inu was carrying Kag. *Shivers at your description of Inu's calmin gpresence to Kagome* Oooh.
So...am I the only one who can't wait for the next chapter?

Oh, and I ABSOLUTELY agree with subetehoshi's last review. ^^ Along with Snowfall's review, excluding her first paragraph. (Hidaka Noriko is a bit warmer than Willow Johnson, from what I have seen, though Hidaka-san pulls off the cold, reborn Kikyou nicely. :S I actually like Willow Johnson's voice too. >_<)

Chappie 16: I don't know where I reviewed last, but I want to say that this is a wonderfully angsty chapter. Kagome's confusion, bitterness and desperation to help and understand Inuyasha were very well portrayed, as was Inuyasha turmoil over his behavior with Kikyou. And, my lovely Sesshoumaru. *sigh* Again, great work. Your writing continues to flow smoothly.
