Repetition 6 Years, 7 Months ago Karma: 171
So I came across a couple of Pride and Prejudice stories a while ago that did this, but they got taken down by the author because they ended up publishing them. Only the first chapter remained of those stories, and I've been looking for something like it ever since.

But anyway, I'm wondering if anyone has come across any stories where either Kagome or Sesshomaru or both of them end up repeating a day over and over and over again? It could be because there was a glitch in something or some magic afoot that causes it to happen, and they either have to fix the glitch, behavior, decision, or counteract the magic responsible in order to get the loop to stop. It would go on for weeks or months as they try to figure out why it's happening and how to fix it.

If anyone has come across something like this please let me know. Or someone could go ahead and decide they like the sound of this and try their hand at writing a story or drabble like it.

I feel like I might have read something along those lines in the last few years but I'm not sure. I know I didn't add it to a favorite list since this is only site I use one on and I've not read one here. I'm not even sure if that's what was happening. Neat idea though.

This is becoming really popular in film right now. I've never seen a fic like it though. Maybe you should write one? I'd read it

I am considering trying my hand at it. I've had the beginnings of an idea for a while, but I haven't gotten around to adding anything to that idea. Been working on too many other stories, but I'm sure I'll get around to it. I just wondered if anyone else ever had in this fandom.

Thanks Chie! That was the exact type of example I was looking for. Made sure to add it to my favorites. I wonder if there are more out there. Thanks again for posting the fic.

There's a one shot of Sesshoumaru and Kagome having to repeat a Valentines day in Kagome’s time Groundhog day style. I don't know much else of the fic, just remember this from a description of an old forum thread where someone was trying to find it.

The fic is The One Indulgence by claymaker, rated T on FFnet.

I've thought about it. If I did it would have to be a one-shot. I have far to many other incomplete stories that I've got to finish to start another one. I will think on it. The concept is cool, though I'm not sure how to resolve it.

My thoughts exactly. The Sailor Moon example is a oneshot, so it can be done. It'll just take some serious thought or a sudden idea that just keeps rolling.
