I don't know if you wanted comments on this, but it was beautiful!
::lil sigh:: And to know it was un-beta'd ... it's outstanding. I loved the progression of the story from beginning to end, it makes wonderful *sense* ... if the real ending of the manga is this well wrapped up I'll eat my hat.
Thank you for sharing this!

Sigh. Thank you so much for the lovely read. Sat down with my morning coffee and was just mesmerized! Even got a few tears going. Such a talented author.

Oh my gosh, thank you! Mind if I ask which part made you tear up a bit? That actually happened to me at one part while I was writing it, which is pretty unusual for me.

Hah! The real question should be 'what didn't get me going with the little sniffles'?

1. Obviously, the end. Kagome beating at Sesshoumaru for not saving Inuyasha. Yeah, pretty much the whole aftermath and the names on the Goshinboku.
2. The lovely, aching little moment when Sess wishes someone would notice/look at him again. One little line and ouch! Got me good!
3. Looking in the mirror.
4. The simple and ominous "And who will read it?" line. Shiver. That kind of set the stage!

But the real weepy moment for me...
5. The "left no innocence for himself"! Bullseye!

Sighs again. I am a worshipper of the angst. Hope you do think I'm a total sap now!

Oops. I meant hope you don't think I'm a sap. One day I'll post without a messy typo.

Thanks, Nami, glad you approve! ^^

Yes, it's Nami-approved! XD I'm usually not a big fan of Sesshoumaru, but I like the way you wrote him here.

And YAY for Kohaku living and marrying Rin. I'd love to see that in canon ♥

Hehe, cool.

The longer the manga goes on, the more I've warmed up to the idea of Kohaku/Rin. They really would be sweet. I imagine the manga will end with them still as kids though and we'll never know for sure canonically what happens to them. I couldn't help sneaking that line in about them, though. ^^
