I have noticed that as well. If you want a story where Sesshoumaru does the unthinkable and Kagome doesn't go to him, check out 'Broken Promises'. I can't think of the author's name, but they do an awesome job. As much as I love Sesshoumaru, for a large part of the story, I can't help but want to hate him for his actions. It's a tear-jerker. It's a long read, so make sure you have time on your hands to read it. It's still going, too, and right now something big is happening, but I can't tell you unless you've read it.
