I love this story. Lately, I have been wondering just how Sesshoumaru became a bank worker-- and not a well paid one at that. The back story there must be terrific. 

Thanks for this wonderful story.

^_^ cute chappie

D'awww. Pronking chapter made me smile :D please continue your awesomeness!!

Aw cute chapter! I'm happy Kags was able to get a job....normal routines can go a long way=]

Hope to read more soon!

Good, keep it coming. Happy New Year!

I love it!!!! I like how everything is developing how both are coming to terms with the whole situation, I feel sorry for kagome because she feels like sesshoumaru will never love her, but I'm pretty sure sesshoumaru will start developing feelings for her and with her possibly being pregnant why wouldn't he. :)

I blinked several times when I see this story being updated. I just couldn't believe you updated so quickly, Maddie-san (the power of holiday, maybe?)! And this chapter was like a vitamin after the previous chapter! Yay! Beautifully written, like always. Love the development here and there! I see you intend to make Sesshoumaru comes to terms with feelings like being bitten by Boomslang snake (Dispholidus typus), they inserted their venom just a little dose, spread slowly, but deadly. Khukhukhu...

  Good job Maddie-san!

This chapter was so sweet I couldn't take my eyes away. Atlast it seems like they are both making some steps in the right direction, even if Sesshomaru is doing the right thing for the wrong reasons. 

Awe how.sad but wonderful.  

Hmm...well thats incredibly sad. I don't know how its going to be fixed though. You manage to write so much emotion into your chapters. Hopefully some of those emotions will become good ones. I can't wait to see what happens next :)

Awwww...*goes teary-eyed* Anyway, Happy New Yr! Thanks for writing! So happy to see an update from you! Looking forward to the next chapter! Ja ne!

Another excellent chapter!!  Keep updating!

Major feels for Kag....all she wants is to cuddle!!!

....Well and love too

Amazing chapter like always! Please update soon.

Happy New Year!

My heart... It hurts. I just want to cuddle Kagome and tell her that everything will be alright. I can't help but love how you've layed things out though. Everything that's happend so far just feels so real and I believe this is being paced perfectly despite my absolute desire for Sesshomaru to atleast try and delve into how Kagome is feeling or for Kagome to be open about her thoughts and feelings. All in all I love this, so keep up the good work!

I liked the new chapter, as usual, it is just soo good. Their inner voices are so raw, kags with so much emotion and sesh with his reasoning. Btw: Happy New year! And thank you for sharing your awesome story with us. 

I really am taking a likening to this story, as i do with many of your other extravagant fanfics.  Red Lotus when reading it I find is such a unique and interesting piece of work you`ve done in order to portray Sesshomaru and Kagome by putting them in such a relationship with such  unique circumstance and putting the supposed 'relationship' under such a uncovering layer upon layer development of their emotions and relationship.

I really like the fact that Kagome and Sesshomaru have so much churning unresolved  tension with each other and such an up in the air relationship that makes me ever so hung on every word as i read to see how it shall change and develop; though I hope they will eventually at least be a little more open with their thoughts towards each other at some point.

I'm curious to see if Sesshomaru shall be a little more affectionate or at least take some initiative in order to make the bond and relationship with Kagome a little more bearable. It just seems to me Sesshomaru should share more of what Kagome has to go through since Kagome is left with doing all the work in trying to change their relationship and get at least some contact that makes her feel anything besides unrequited love or grief. I can kind of fantasize how interesting it would be  to see if Sesshomaru will stop suppressing his emotions at certain times and help to develop his relationship with Kagome.

I can't wait to read your next chapter.

Nice, keep it coming. Happy New Year!

T_T .........

Oh nooo... such a mess I got on my eyes... So much heart breaking the more I scrolled down... Hope it will getting better for Kagome in the upcoming chapters... My heart so rooted for her... I really wanted to hug her and gave her some comfort, plus smacked Sesshoumaru's head with Tensaiga, for such a bright-gifted demon as he, sometimes he just sooo clueless (I still though thet he isn't heartless)!!

Good job, Maddie-san!

wow....thats so sad.... XD

seshoumaru must be a robot
