Ah, that was really beautiful, my friend!  I feel like they each have had closure from the things that were troubling them.  Kagome found out about her island time, and Sesshoumaru clarified their relationship.  But I think the next tale is going to be the most interesting - now that they've shared something special, how will that impact the way they fulfill their next role?  And I'm a little uneasy: Kagome was Momotaro in this one, so does that mean that Sesshoumaru is going to be the Moon Princess, Kaguya?  Haha, that would be something.  But if Kagome is the one, then wouldn't that mean she's the main character twice in a row?  Unless Sesshoumaru's character is more important...  Oh, so many questions.  How I love this story.  Great job.

On a more personal note, do you think this has killed your need for writing, or do you think you'll keep going?  I remember when you first started 7FFT and we were talking about ideas over on PD you had some great ideas for AU's.  Will you still do them, or has this stroy satisfied you? 

Still love the chapter and the story ^-^ ironcally my little sister was reading this as well and I didn't know it. Funny isn't it? She says she loves it too. I'm just wondering if the curse of the scroll will be broken when Sesshomaru and Kagome get out. trust me, I'm dieing to know.

So... I'm dieing to know, how in gods name did they go from screaming at eachother to screwing eachother? Dont get me wrong, it was a great chapter justl ike all yoru others, but I'm just sitting here with my head tilted trying to figure this one out.

Author's Response: Anger and passion are not such different things.  The chapter was really about fulfillment and bonds.  Kagome kissed him, because he gave up a piece of his life for her and all because she deserved it.  He kissed her back, because she understood the troubles he was going through and proved that everything he had done for her was cherished.

Very interesting and Sesshoumaru appears right when she needs it. I wonder if he is irate with her? Will he accept her explanation, or will they both just not say anything about her wandering off on her own.

Wow... I mean wow... It took me two weeks to actually finish all that you have written. And all I have to say is wow. I seriously began to doubt that there was no good fanfic's out there and that I've read the best, but I have to admit this is one of the best fics out there so far. I give it an A. Keep up the good work ^-^. The way you have the stories is fantastic. The way you had Shiro-sama's story and turned such a tale to fit Sesshomaru's clan was perfect. The back story of the dragon king even had me thinking about how evil is this man truly. One of those things that I can see how evil he was, but at the same time, he cared for his family both real and not. I actually stayed awak till one in the morning to finish the island arch you had. I cant wait to see what else you will come up with. 

If I had a question though, it would be what is your motivation for you to keep writing a good fanfic? What helps you keep the characters in character? I'm sure there's more questions, I just cant think of any. 

Well, sorry for the long review, but please, keep on writting. I await your next chapter. 

this last chapter was amazing of course cant wait for the next. just thought you'd like to know :)

It is unusual to see Sesshoumaru sleep so much but understandable why. It is good that Kagome found out for herself the reason for his current actions.

I am still with you on this story. :)

Yay! I get so excited when i see this updated. :D

Kagome is a smart cookie, and I can't help but hope that her 'proving' serves to bring them together...I am such a sucker for this pairing when done the right way (and you're doing it!).  

Ah, so she finally figured it out.  Haha, that Kagome.  So stubborn.  She thinks Sesshoumaru has too much pride, but she has a lot of pride, too. 

So, I'm not convinced that Sesshoumaru's sudden weakness is that he's unsure of the worth of his 'gift'.  I have the feeling that it's actually because he refuses to tell her, that he's almost ashamed to tell her.  But I've been wrong before, and wouldn't be surprised if I was now.

 By the way, I'm sorry for bumping you out of the top spot.  I did it here AND at Dokuga, haha.  I get annoyed when I update and two minutes later, someone else updates to push me down the list, so I just wanted to say sorry!  ^^

This has been a wonderful story so far.  I really have enjoyed reading the fairytales, especially with the spin of adding Sess and Kags to them.  It brings a whole new quality to them.  I cant wait to read more. 

Talk about a cliff-hanger, lol.  But WOW, he pretty much told her.  I wonder what she'll take from it, and what it will mean to her.  I wonder what it means to him.  You've done so wonderfully with this story, and it's sad that there isn't too much left.  But it's a catch-22, since I want to know how it ends.

Happy Holidays and happy writing!

This was so cute!  I love these new characters!  I am, however, worried for Sesshoumaru.  What is ailing him?  Could it really be that he's had 30-odd years taken from him?  That seems like such a tiny piece of time for him...  On to the next chapter!
