Aw very sad but sweet as well. Great emotions evoked here. Great work!

Thanks so much! When working with heavy emotion I'm always afraid I won't be able to portray it as well as I can see it in my mind. I'm glad I was able to bring it out with such few words to work with.

So bitter sweet, thanks for a look into this often missed view of their relationship.

I love the idea of her aging as a normal human being would and Sesshoumaru aging much more slowly and retaining his youth and beauty.

Squee! This was so adorably sweet. I loved it. Fantastic work =)

Thanks! I'm glad you liked it ^.^

Poignant, yet sweet. I especially adored the part where Sesshomaru admits that he had, emotionally not physically, grown with an aged Kagome. Nice job. (:

Thanks so much! I'm glad you liked the different view I took on the two.

I love that he realizes the change was not only in her, but also in him.

The tenderness he shows is beautiful.
