OMG truly a wonderful happy chapter loved it.  Wonder if Kagome ever read any of his haiku in the future.  lol

Ooh!  I like your characterization of Sesshomaru here.  I've always kind of liked him the way you've portrayed him.  The way they interacted in this chapter was nice, especially how you noted that Kagome was herself also understanding that she could place Sesshomaru in a different category to her rapists.  I also am curious about the Haiku.  I can actually see Sesshomaru writing poetry.  I'm curious to see what Kagome thinks of it.  

I love that he writes poetry and fiction.  Ahhh..I'm excited for her to read it. 

And because I forgot to say this in the earlier review: I've felt the same way you did once (for me writing became a chore and my mental health sufferded a lot when I forced myself to write).  You do what is best for you.  If that means taking a break, then do it.  Just know that you'll always have a fan waiting here to read your works in the meantime (and I have so much of your work to now catch up on reading!)  

First, please ignore typos- I'm typing in the dark after a long day, and my eyes are alreday dropping. 

I really enjoyed reading this story.  I may have binge-read it start to Chapter 13 in one go earlier today.  I think what I really like about this the most was your portrayal of Kagome.  What she is going through is not only normal for someone in her situation, but is also realistic.  I've seen and read so many stories that I have literally turned away from because they simply don't address the aftermath of sexual assault and violence properly.  You, on the other hand are taking your time developing this story, and the relationship between Sesshomaru and Kagome in a proper way.  And I like how you've shown Kagome struggling with some things and finding comfort in others.  The scene with the water in Chapter 9 was so good!  As a reader, I really felt for Kagome and understood her emotions so clearly.  And then, the scene with the flowers made me smile because it shows Kagome understanding she needs to get on her feet.  

Your story is not lacking in quality.  It is deserving of so much more love than I have seen it receive.  I feel like linking to it on my Tumblr in a "Please people, read and review these amazing stories" post I want to make with not just your story, but others here that are so well written but barely reviewed.  As an author, some of the hardest stories for me to write are ones that have the same emotional feels as yours.  So, kudos to you for providing us with a really well-written story!  

I look forward to your next update whenever it may be :)

I love this story. It's one of the ones that keeps me coming back. I hope you continue this story!!

This soft, tentative companionship is so beautiful. You write these characters so well that it touches me so deeply. Like the person below me, I feel the same about whether or not you find your inspiration again should not be the goal but, your mental and physical health should always come first. You are most definitely my top 3 favorite authors, and while I'll feel bereft without your wonderful stories, I at least can look back on what you have written and feel immensely lucky that I can treasure them by rereading them over and over again.

1st off I want to say thank you so much for writing the story and appreciative of all the chapters we've already gotten. I would say do what makes you happy and if finishing the story does not I completely understand and has been a beautiful story to read.  Taking care of yourself physically and mental is all that matters. Thank you again  and please don't feel rushed to put a chapter until you are ready and feeling up to it. I always wait read it when they come

I loved this chapter.  This Sessh is so sweet and I love how comforted she is by him.  I do hope you find your inspiration again, I have you as a favorited author and enjoy all of your stories.  I follow here and on AO3.  Your stories are always well written and have interesting things happening or interesting versions of characters.  

That was a great chapter thank you for updating I understand what you mean its hard just know we adore the stories you write and love reading the chapters you update.....  Until next time.

This is a well-composed and well-thought out story. I can’t wait to read more!

That was a great chapter loved how Rin picked on Inu Yasha at least he is moving in the right direction first the hair then next comes the bath....  I'm glad Sesshomaru is helping Kagome heal she needs a strong man to aid her.

This chapter brought so many feels, it captured her helplessness in such a relatable way. Also, sweet sesshomaru is just so sweet.

Can't wait to read more! I'm here for Soft Sesshoumaru ;) Poor Kagome... I'm so hurt and angry for her! 

Wow those were awesome chapters.....

I am absolutely enthralled with this story. I can't wait for the next chapter 

I really like the setting for this story. I also have enjoyed your other chapter stories and one shots, even though I haven't reviewed them.  I look forward to the updates.

Love it! Can't wait for more.
