Thank you so much for the long, amazing review on Blood Stained!
Thank you. I know it was a long one but I tried to keep the dark themes going. I know some people found it difficult but I wanted to stick to it. It was quite a challenge. I'm so glad I could make you feel like you were the characters. It was my goal, and I wasn't always sure I succeeded.

I don't think old Sesshomaru would have admitted it. (That Kagome was stronger than him) but this new Sesshomaru... he went through a 100 chapters haha. He's different. So I thought it was appropriate. Haha. I know I was sad we didn't get a little glimpse of the beast at the end... but they were merged! Oh they were Sesshomaru's instincts and desires but he was so stubborn, going against them that his beast was "born".

I was tempted to make it end like you said. Their mating bond breaking. But, I thought they went through all this. They can't just lose everything. But you know, it's there, looming over their heads forever. It might happen. Thank you so much for reading and sticking with me despite my slow updating process aha.

And I cannot thank you enough for this long review! Seriously, thank you!

Thank you so much for your lovely comment on The Clingy One

My gosh, I feel really bad when I realize I never thanked you for your review! So thank you!

I want to make sure that neither ends up falling for each other immediately in this story. If I was in Kagome's shoes, I doubt I'd be able to even love the guy before marriage. Nonetheless, this is a romance story so obviously there will be elements of budding love that eventually culminate in happiness. And for the same reasoning, Kagome keeps wanting to prolong things as she comes to a conclusion. Whereas Sesshomaru is more of a "I'll take what happens" kind of guy.

I hope you like the rest of the story just as much and still find it entertaining to read.

Oh, for my part I don't hate Inuyasha. I love him and Sesshoumaru and even more Inupapa! I have a huge crush on Inupapa. I will admit that Sesshoumaru and papa are more my favs than Inuyasha, but I still love him too. As for Kagome... she won't be fighting Sesshoumaru for too much longer, lol.

Thanks for reviewing Nefarious!

Thanks for your review on In the Moment XD I'm so glad you like the skin lol ^^; this piece actually drove me crazy, and I'm still not really happy with it, so I'm so glad someone likes it!

Thanks for all your reviews that you've left on Hopeless Insanity. I'm really glad you're enjoying it.

That was never the point of Ever the Lotus. I didn't want to make up something about what Kagome is, really - I just wanted to point out all the mysterious things about her, and that she did in the manga and movies - mostly to get people thinking about the mystery that is Kagome. I think I've managed that. I'm glad you see it - some people have missed that.

Thank you for the review on Blood Stained!
Aah. Well unless you think all my chapters are short, it wasn't short. Ahah, all my chapters are the same length. (Well 6000words, sometimes I got over a bit, but it's rare). I can't really answer any of your questions without ruining everything, but I promise you'll get answers!

Thank you for the review!!

I'm glad I made you laugh so hard. I had quite a hard time typing at my laptop because I was laughing so hard at myself. I have so many gags and funny situations I want put in my story that I just fall to the floor laughing. I cant tell you how many times my mom nearly had me committed. But hey it's those crazy wacked out minds that make a story funny in my opinion.

D.O.D

Thanks for reviewing With the Rain again! A nice review always makes me want to write more Also, I'm sorry you were missing my updates. I tend to update late at night, and by the next day it's usually at the bottom of the fanfiction page or on page two. I should probably update earlier

Thank you again for your review! Love hearing from you!
