tagging game! tagged by @yarboyandy
-three ships
uhhhh. Off the top of my head. 1.lisacreature duh. the whole movie. they're not a healthy relationship but like they're fine they just destroy everything around them. i lurv it . also of fucking course I wanted a zombie boyfriend as a teenager. I won't lie to any of you
Tumblr media
2. danbert bc gay people in my phone. classic case of toxic yaoi. so toxic I've been thinking about them for years. if only reanimator had like been gay on purpose we could've had it all
Tumblr media
3. also based off of "what's in my camera roll". the evil scientists from mst3k are gay also. Dr Forrester and tvs frank.... is this even disputed. I don't care. I've known this since I was a child. "they're gay married and kill each other in looney tunes esque situations daily" feels like part of the character concepts.
Tumblr media
-first ship
Inuyasha x Kagome, most likely. it's like one of the first obsessions I can remember where a show had like, a romantic throughline I cared about at all. although, to be fair, I was still mostly into the comedy and supernatural stuff, and this was Very Young.
-last song I listened to
Tumblr media
youtube
I stumbled upon the tiny desk concert performance and well. I am not immune to popular things. chappell roan is pretty awesome. I love the videos and performances, but the pop music is also really solid, and I find myself enjoying it way more than expected. this songs good but I haven't listened to it a lot yet....my first time actually
-currently reading
Perry Mason and the Glamorous Ghost. I'm only like a chapter in. idk it was an impulse buy on my birthday because the cover was awesome. also pictured: my copy of Frankenstein. I read that in October. loved it
Tumblr media
-currently watching
uhmmmm. still rewatching always sunny in Philadelphia. forever. watched a couple episodes of space ghost coast to coast earlier. I still want to keep watching twin peaks the return but I haven't because. idk. its hard to be me....
-relationship status
very incredibly single. it is very hard to date when u can't drive where I live. I mean it's hard in any circumstance but whatever shots I had are dust. would love to date sometime in my life possibly. I have been feeling that way for um. like four years now. so. we will see how that goes.
-current obsessions
Lisa Frankenstein, obvs.....my hobbies and such though? kind of in a slump. I've been like.....learning how to apply makeup for once for fun. I'm still very bad at it but idgaf it is what it is what's always made me uncomfortable about it was that it never "looked right" and I didn't want to be judged. instead of just treating it like a for fun thing. ie I want Colors On My Face I don't even cover up my acne atp. oh and the gender thing. like if I didn't do the makeup right I was being bad at being a girl. and now I do not have to worry about that at all.
-currently craving
like, food? um. I hope the brownies I made tonight taste good in the morning. I let them cool overnight so idk how they taste yet.
-favorite color
green, but I'm a big fan of what pink and black (I KNOW it's not a 'real color' IDC) and some shades of blue and yellow and orange have going on. I just like colors lmao
-tagging
hiiii I won't mind if you don't do it this is just a little shout-out okay :) @mahkari @jokeryuri @homokommari @mushroom-in-space
also anypony else who wants to do it can.....I won't be mad

AU where the Eternians/First Ones were Vampires, so Adora is a vampire, but not…activated? Like with InuYasha where he’s a half-demon but there’s like a requirement for him to kind of be the demon part
It’s like in Skyrim with the Dawnguard where if you go to Serena’s home with her, there’s a kind of ritual to become a vampire lord
The Sword of Protection is a daylight/Silver blade for like fighting werewolves or something. When used correctly, it can calm a starving vampire or defend against them should they go feral same thing.
Kind of same thing happens but she keeps the vampire stuff a secret. To blend in. Light Hope performs the ritual and it like unlocks the vampirism. She feels the insane thirst for blood and barely manages to live the night. Bow and Glimmer help her of course. She refuses to feed. She keeps her sword on her at all times.
Catra would be a were-cat and would be transforming into a panther. She would understand Adora if she knew, but she doesn’t. She finds her easily because she can smell her but she smells different after a while
It does all happen differently though
They get trapped together and Adora won’t look at her and it takes a toll, like what is her problem or did she finally lose her after all
Adora is actually the one wanting a portal so she can be with her kind and like not be a danger to everyone because she’s afraid she can’t stop herself and she doesn’t know how to control the like vampire venom of her fangs and she’s ashamed of herself and feels like a monster
She thought it would be a good thing at the time because she would be stronger and help people but she didn’t consider that she would have to feed for the rest of her life
Catra still sees her as like the enemy because she left and turned against them of course but more now because she’s different
But she sees how Adora is fighting with herself and it sticks with her but still enemies, a surprise tool that will help them later
Instead of like the infection, it’s that the sword like dies or something
Vampire Adora kind of goes on a rampage but manages not to drink from anyone and gets chained up
Hordak is also a like Trying to do a portal for of course the reasons and it still won’t work unless the like land is together or at least like balanced
Adora smashes the working sword to pieces because she decides for herself that if making the portal would destroy this world, she would give up the chance of returning to her true home and after knowing what they did, she can take that sacrifice even if it means she will need to really discipline herself for the safety of others
Doesn’t work because Light Hope does the thing
The Horde Prime comes and same stuff happens
Adora learns that she doesn’t feel the like thirst or anything after the sword breaks but she is weakened and stuff but still manages along
When Catra does the call, she hears how weak she sounds and tells her to just go home once she gives them Glimmer
Adora of course doesn’t and same stuff happens but instead of like the She-ra returns scene it’s like this:
Catra is like “I know what you are and you’re killing yourself for everyone if you don’t feed— you don’t have the choice anymore” and before she lets herself fall off the cliff, she forces Adora to drink even just a little bit of her blood between lucidity of the chipped possession
Adora is forced to transform but into her like full self I guess at full power and she jumps. Breaks her legs still. Stands holding dying Catra in her arms and like escapes
When returning she takes one of Catra’s claws to cut herself enough for her to be able to reanimate her heart by actually physically doing it herself and help her heal like in Underworld Awakening
They hug and like Adora still won’t feed but she still doesn’t really feel a need to till they get back home
The stuff happens and at the end Catra forces her wrist into Adora’s mouth to force her to bite down and feed, but she doesn’t heal and Catra becomes distraught because she knows it’s too late she’s lost her
She’s like ‘you don’t have to do this alone, Adora, you didn’t let *me*, did you? You didn’t give up don’t start now I love you’ and it ends about the same

Wish I Could Curse You (12)
Series Master List
Tumblr media
Satoru side eyes the man with stitches across his forehead, not that the man would be able to tell since Satoru has his bandages wrapped firmly around his eyes.
Something isn't right about that man, but he can't put his finger on what it is. The man's eyes are shifty. Though, what sorcerer doesn't have shifty eyes? Sorcerers are truly just con men at the end of the day. And his smile doesn't fit his face, but there's no malicious intent coming from him. Either the man is just naturally a shitty person, or he realizes he's outclassed.
Outnumbered.
Or maybe it's both.
His muscles tighten. All he needs is a single twitch. A look. Anything, really, and Satoru will end this man's life.
"Please enjoy your stay," the man says, bowing. "Should you need anything, please do not hesitate to find me." He bows again and then leaves them alone in the room, which could be bigger considering the Lord of this estate says they are esteemed guests or whatever.
Or maybe this is the best that they can do? A couple of sleeping mats and a divider, as if they are going to use that.
"He smelled funny," Shippo says, wrinkling his nose. "Not full-on zombie like Kikyo did. But hers was more like the smell of clay."
"Kikyo? Have I heard that name before?" Satoru questions. There's been a lot of names thrown at him these past couple of days that he can't keep track of who he should have beef with or not.
"Oh, InuYasha and Kikyo were lovers," Shippo answers. "But she died, and some witch reanimated her using part of Mama's soul."
"And she's at rest now," Kagome interrupts. She crosses her arms and leans against the wall. "We have bigger problems." She sighs and looks at Suguru. "You were supposed to find an estate that didn't have an evil spirit."
Suguru laughs. "It wasn't on purpose. Though I don't think we have to look far. That sorcerer may be a curse user." Suguru cracks his neck. "Is he leaving?"
Satoru tugs at his bandages just enough to reveal one eye. "Seems to be that way. Must've scared him off."
"We can sleep here, or we can leave and make camp," Suguru says.
"You want to go after him?"
"Not really. It's late…unless Kagome wants to."
Kagome blows out a breath. "Satoru, you can track his energy, right?"
He nods. It's not a big deal to go after the curse user, though a small part of him wants to stay here and get more information out of Shippo.
"We could ask around, gather some more information. If something is amiss, then we track him down. Shippo, you said he wasn't really like Kikyo. Was he like Rin or Kohaku?"
Shippo scrunches his nose. His bushy tail swishes back and forth. "Yeah, I'd say like them. He's died before, but isn't quite like Kikyo."
"Then he wouldn't need the souls of the recently deceased to survive."
Satoru frowns. He glances over at Suguru. All this soul talk is making him itchy. Kagome and Shippo are far too flippant about souls being snatched, living off half of one, and now there's a difference in how a dead person smells?
"So this Kikyo needed the souls of other people to survive, but you didn't?" Suguru asks.
Kagome tilts her head. "Well…most people would have been dead."
"Yeah, Mama is super strong," Shippo says, jumping up and down. "She even pulled her soul back. And when Kanna tried to steal what she had left, it was too big to be contained."
Kagome closes her eyes and sighs. "Point being, I'm an anomaly on that front and Kikyo was too." She opens her eyes and pins Shippo with a look. "Most wouldn't need to collect the souls of the recently dead because they would have taken the soul of someone else. And probably be at the mercy of whoever rose them from the dead." Kagome pushes away from the wall and sits down on the bedding. She blows out a breath. "Someone like Rin or Kohaku, though, came back to life with their souls and not someone else's. It's a different process and I believe you can't be dead for too long for it to work. Kikyo was dead for 50 years."
50 years? Satoru scratches his head. "InuYasha and Kikyo were lovers, though? He got with a zombie?"
"Uhh, no? Kinda." Kagome presses her lips together. "InuYasha is like over 200 centuries years old. Shippo wasn't lying when he told you his age."
Suguru bends down and squints at Shippo. "You're older than me?"
"And more handsome," Shippo quips.
Satoru doesn't bother to hold his laughter back. Suguru turns and flips him off, which only makes Satoru laugh harder.
Kagome stands and walks towards the door. Satoru reaches for her, grabbing her wrist in a loose hold. She pauses and when she looks at him, he swears she takes his breath from him.
"Hi."
"Hi?"
"You come here often?"
Kagome blinks and then rolls her eyes. "You're the most unserious man I know."
"A shame you know other men."
"Hey!" Suguru walks over to them and flanks Kagome's other side. "You forget I knew her first."
Satoru snorts. "Let's ditch the wannabe monk," he says. "Besides, Suguru got to spend time alone with you earlier and I didn't."
Suguru narrows his eyes at him.
"Is this how you two flirt?" Shippo asks.
Satoru whips his head back. Shippo sits on the floor with crayons in hand. Huh. Shippo really likes drawing. Maybe he should get him a sketchbook to keep all his pictures together? "We aren't flirting. It's called establishing dominance."
Suguru makes a choked sound.
"Establish away," Kagome says, pulling her hand back. "I'm going to talk to Lord Kitagaki and see if we can't get some more information on what's been going on around here. If that guy is up to no good, then I can't just stand by and turn the other way. He could have been the type those monks were after."
"Sesshomaru may want to kill them. They didn't want to listen to reason," Shippo chimes.
"…That too."
"You're gonna go talk to some man that is obsessed with you, wearing that?" Satoru asks, readjusting his bandages.
"What's wrong with my outfit?" She plants her hands on her hips and leans forward. Satoru shivers. This shouldn't be turning him on, but the fire in her eyes makes him want to add more wood to the flames. "This is a traditional priestess garment."
"Nothing's wrong with it…it's just…" He bites his lip. "Shippo, don't you want your own room?"
"Uh, no?" Shippo replies. "Why would I want my own room when this place is creepy?"
"Not you too, Suguru?" Kagome looks over her shoulder.
Suguru shrugs. "I think Shippo should get his own room after we confirm there is no danger here."
"I'm not leaving this room," Shippo says with a huff. "I'm sleeping with Mama."
"Awww, you want to cuddle with me?" Kagome turns and holds open her arms. Shippo puts his crayons down and runs forward, leaping into Kagome's embrace like a cat. Er…fox. Whatever. Either way, it's not fair.
"He is a grown man," Suguru mutters. Kagome gasps and cuddles Shippo closer to her chest.
"Shippo is only in his 60s, he's a child," she admonishes. "You have to watch what you say to him. He's delicate." Kagome runs her hand over Shippo's hair and mock glares at Suguru.
"…." Suguru exhales. "Right. Right. Shippo is a poor, innocent child who did not have a trap lying in wait for someone to walk into it and get crushed by some fox statues."
"Papa Suguru likes to tell crazy stories," Shippo chimes. "Maybe he's getting senile with his old age."
"I think so too," Kagome sighs.
Suguru splutters. "You were there when he had the trap laid out."
"Oh Papa Suguru," Shippo says, shaking his head slowly. "I would never do such a thing. Why I'm the best kit ever. I never cause trouble and I definitely didn't do something to your hair bottle."
Satoru covers his mouth and wheezes. Now he wants to know what Shippo did to the shampoo bottle. Suguru glares at him and flares his nostrils. Ugh. Fine. "Shippo," Satoru says, doing his best to not laugh. "You shouldn't play tricks on Suguru without me."
"What? I thought we agreed that tricks would be played on Satoru only?"
"Papas, please. I have enough tricks up my sleeves for everyone. You don't have to beg me to scam you." Shippo shakes his head again. "Mama, where did you find these strange humans? It must be that cursed energy of theirs. Got them going crazy."
Wait a minute! Satoru snaps his mouth shut. How the heck did Shippo turn it around like that?
"Okay. One of us needs to go investigate and it can't be Satoru, since he's supposed to be blind." Kagome blows out a breath. "If we could get this taken care of before dinner, that would be great."
"So, me?" Suguru asks, but he says it more like a statement. "And Shippo." He grabs Shippo by the back of his shirt. Shippo rolls his eyes. His tail swishes back and forth like an annoyed cat.
"I mean, I was going to go," Kagome points out.
"Best if you don't. I might end up plucking that lord's eyes out," Suguru says, straight-faced.
"You wouldn't pluck his eyes out," she scoffs. "Whatever, investigate away then." She waves Suguru and Shippo off as she heads back off to the bedding. Satoru bites his tongue. No way is he about to open his mouth and ruin this opportunity.
He waits until Suguru and Shippo leave the room and places his ear against the door, listening for movement. He could simply track Suguru's cursed energy, but for this he wants all of his senses put to use.
"What are you doing?" Kagome asks.
"Making sure they're gone." He turns and stalks towards her. Kagome squirms. Ah, now she realizes the predicament she's in. He grins. A big, wide Chester's grin. "What's wrong, Gome-chan?" He drops to his hands and knees before her. "I'm just trying to be a good concubine and make you feel good."
"A good concubine knows how to keep their mouth shut," she teases.
"M'afraid you'll have to keep this disobedient concubine's mouth busy." He leans forward and kisses her. Kagome wraps her arms around his neck and falls back on the bedding as he cages her in. Satoru breaks the kiss and sighs. He places his head between her breasts, careful to not put his whole weight on her.
"How are you feeling?" she asks after a moment. Satoru lifts his head. "About everything that's happened."
"I've got the love of my life and my best friend." He tilts his head. "And a son that likes to play tricks." He eases off her and lies on his side. "Hoping for another one." Satoru places his hand on her stomach. Actually, he blames Suguru for this. He wasn't thinking about having kids at all until Suguru started scheming.
"You two are serious about this?"
"Mhmm. Suguru is strong, but he's not cut out for jujutsu work, so having him home with you brings me a sense of peace. I'm a clan leader and one of the strongest, so I have a lot of enemies." And he wasn't there for Suguru back then when he needed him the most. He will not turn his back on Suguru now.
"Are you referring to the darkness in him?"
"Darkness?" If she means how fragile Suguru's mind was back then, then sure. "I mean, you have to be a bit insane to be a sorcerer." He interlocks their fingers. "I can see his cursed energy, but I don't think that's what you're referring to."
"No." She shakes her head. "It's been settling down since I've started addressing it. I just wanted to check in with you. You've been more unhinged since we've been here."
Satoru shifts. The tips of his ears burn. "Is that a bad thing?"
"…No. I guess you can't go all out in our time." She bites her lip. "As long as you're fine, then that's all that matters."
"Speaking of unhinged." He smiles at her. "Can I rip this off of you?"
Kagome gives him a flat expression. "No. What happened to being a good concubine?"
Satoru sighs. "I don't want to be a good concubine. Can't I just be your husband?"
Kagome flushes.
"Oho? You didn't think I'd just make you a baby mama? Thought it was a given."
"I haven't been doing much thinking lately," she huffs.
Satoru laughs. She's cute when she's flustered. "I'll talk to Suguru, but on paper, you should be my wife for more protection."
"I don't need protecting."
"Everyone needs someone watching their back. Besides, you'll have twenty kids to watch over. You'll need all the help you can get."
"Twenty!"
His brows furrow together. "Did you want more than that? That'll be too much on your body."
Kagome jerks her hand back and sits up. "You are ridiculous."
"In love," he coos as he reaches for her leg, pulling it into his lap. "When we get back, I need to take you out on a proper date."
"You mean you want to take me out on a date."
"There's no wanting with you. I need you."
The door slides open. Suguru's expression is murderous. Shippo twitches in Suguru's arms.
"What happened?" Satoru asks, rising.
"We're leaving."
"What?" Kagome stands and scratches her head. "We just got here and we haven't—"
"Kagome," Suguru interrupts. "We're leaving."
Kagome stares at Suguru for a beat and then turns to gather her things. Satoru exhales. He's not sure what's going on, but Suguru isn't the type to talk to Kagome like that, so it must be serious.
Suguru packs the rest of the items and stores them in the worm curse while Shippo clings to his back. Satoru blows out a breath as he slides open the back door.
"Can't we just fly to Sesshomaru's?" Shippo asks.
Kagome shrugs. "It's fine. I guess."
Suguru summons a giant bird curse that bends and spreads its wings. "You can ride in my lap, so you aren't directly on the curse," Suguru says, stepping in front of Kagome. "I can explain on the way there."
But Suguru doesn't explain. He doesn't say anything the entire flight unless it is to direct the curse to follow Shippo's directions.
They land a little way from the estate. Kagome slides out of Suguru's lap and stretches her arms.
"I nearly killed him," Suguru admits.
Satoru clucks his tongue. Ah. So that's it.
"Why would you nearly kill Lord—"
"He asked to buy you."
"He didn't want me?" Satoru pouts. His fingers clench at his sides. Of course, that man tried to buy Kagome. With how he went on and on about the Shikon tale, he probably sees Kagome as an object and not a person.
Kagome blinks. "That's all?"
…That's all? What does she mean by that's all? Shouldn't she be a little angry? Or annoyed?
"Mama gets proposed to all the time or someone kidnaps her to make her their bride. That lord was pretty tame," Shippo says. "But Sesshomaru says that wandering eyes should be eaten." He throws up his hands and shrugs. "But if that were the case, then Miroku would just be dead because he used to have wandering eyes, and hands, and his mouth was loose too."
"That's demon customs," Kagome says. "Suguru, you'll drive yourself mad if you try to go after every male or female that approaches me."
Satoru twitches. Male or female? Now he has to worry about females making a move on her too? He rubs his forehead. At this rate, he'll be going insane too. A surge of energy sweeps over the area. Satoru grits his teeth. The hell is this? This is nothing like the demonic energy he's encountered so far. Kagome beams and heads towards the surge. This energy is oppressive. Shouldn't Kagome be more sensitive to it than him? Or does it not affect her as much because she has holy energy?
"Sesshomaru wants to know why we're standing around," she says over her shoulder. Shippo bounds after her.
Satoru takes a step, but Suguru reaches for him, so he drops infinity. "What's up?"
"That man with the stitches wasn't doing anything that I could find."
"Did he return then?"
Suguru shakes his head. "He must have left because of Kagome. May have suspected her to be in cahoots with those monks."
Satoru frowns. Something about that man still doesn't sit right with him, but he hasn't given him a reason to go after him. They walk side by side, keeping some distance from Kagome, though Satoru suspects Shippo can hear their conversation. He should test out how far away Shippo can hear them.
"Do you want to go after him?" Satoru asks.
"No. He didn't do anything to the people there. They said he's been here for years and were shocked that he was suddenly gone. Said it wasn't like him to leave, but those monks being so close to the village is no coincidence."
Satoru hums. "Anything else, or did we really leave because that lord wanted Kagome?"
Suguru stops. "It was that or kill him. I chose to remove us from the situation. Didn't trust that he wouldn't try something." Suguru resumes walking.
"Why are you two walking so slow?" Kagome asks, turning around to look at them. She crosses her arms. "Come on, before Sesshomaru gets cranky."
"Sesshomaru is just a friend, right?" Suguru asks, keeping his expression easygoing. Satoru snorts. Now Suguru wants to ask that?
"No, he's family."
"…I see." Suguru sighs.
"What's up with you?" Kagome raises a brow. Shippo crosses his arms and mimics Kagome's pose.
"Just a little wound up from today's events is all."
"Oh." Kagome smiles. "Don't worry, my room leads to a private hot spring. So you can relax when we get there."
"Can we take a family bath?" Shippo asks.
"As long as the family bath comprises us and not Sesshomaru," Satoru quips, though truthfully, he wants time alone with Kagome and Suguru. As fun as Shippo's company is, he's damn near busting at the seams to have quality time with Kagome. Once they go back to their time, it's going to be a headache. Jujutsu society will probably freak out on him for being sick for so long and then Suguru is stepping away from that cult of his.
Suguru's 'family' may be a problem, but they can handle it together.
"This Sesshomaru would not lower myself to bathe with a bunch of humans."
Satoru's muscles tighten. He didn't even hear this demon approach. Sesshomaru steps out from the shadows. Satoru grimaces. He looks over at Suguru, who wears a similar expression.
This is Sesshomaru?
Satoru snorts. He's much better looking than this demon.
"What are you talking about? I'm human," Kagome says, rolling her eyes. "Sesshomaru, this is Satoru, and that's Suguru."
"You don't count," Sesshomaru says. He sniffs. "Two mates?" He sniffs again and then hums. "Come, I will have the servants attend to you." Sesshomaru turns on his heel and flicks his long silver hair back.
Suguru catches up to Kagome and reaches for her hand. "Did you bathe with him?"
Satoru frowns. He would like to know that too.
"Ah, not intentionally. I didn't realize he was already in the spring. But that was so long ago." She shrugs.
"Anyone else I should have on my hit list?" Suguru asks as though he is teasing, but Satoru knows Suguru is serious about this hit list. He should speak up. Put a stop to it.
But.
Damn. His list is growing, too.
"InuYasha saw Mama naked plenty of times. Sometimes he'd lie and say there was a demon attack, but there was no demon," Shippo says. "And then Miroku used to spy all the time. He even asked Mama to have his children, but he is with Sango now, so I guess Sango didn't mind his perverted ways. And then there was that pig demon that—"
Kagome bends down and places a hand over Shippo's mouth. "Do you want me to read you a story after you eat dinner?"
Shippo squints and then nods his head.
"The priestess has many would-be suitors," Sesshomaru says, "As far as hit lists…. This Sesshomaru will test you in the morning."
"Test us?" Satoru and Suguru parrot.
"The priestess doesn't always have the best judge of character."
"Hey!"
"And should you prove to be weak, this Sesshomaru will simply kill you for wasting the priestess's time."
Shippo runs back and jumps into Suguru's arms. He cups his hand over his mouth and whispers, "That means you guys have partly won him over. If you were a regular human, he would have just killed you."
"He would have killed us and not respected Kagome's wishes?" Suguru asks.
Shippo snorts. "Mama…." He sighs. "A weak male could not handle Mama. She gets into so much trouble."
"I do not," Kagome says.
"The last time the priestess was here, a lowly cat demon tried to kidnap her for breeding."
"And I defended myself!"
"There was also that tribe of imps—"
"Thank you, Shippo." Kagome sighs.
Suguru and Satoru share a look. Kagome is far too nonchalant about these things. A normal person would have broken under the trauma, but Kagome waves it off as though these occurrences are nothing more than an annoying insect bite.
"We'll do your test first thing in the morning and then we'll be on our way," Suguru says.
Sesshomaru doesn't respond, but instead leads them to the estate, where the overwhelming energy of demons oozes out of the cracks. Though it's nothing to the amount coming from Sesshomaru himself. Satoru grits his teeth. His cursed energy swirls in his gut, wanting to rise and flare back against the oppressive energy.
They eat in a dining room with a table long enough to sit several families. Shippo jumps and squirms in his seat. He's far more excited to be here than he was at that human lord's estate.
"Why is there so much on my plate?" Kagome grumbles, staring at the massive pile of meat. Satoru squints at his own. It's nowhere near as much as what Kagome has. No way she can eat all of that.
"Because you'll need the energy." Sesshomaru sips from his drink. "Rin and Kohaku have left to visit InuYasha's whelp. They may have already left the village to patrol the area."
"Speaking of patrols," Kagome says, picking at her food. "We ran into some monks. I think the same ones that tried to rescue Rin. They attacked Satoru and Suguru for having cursed energy."
"Most with holy energy go after those with cursed energy. It has been this way for centuries." Sesshomaru sets his drink down. "Perhaps if those with cursed energy weren't so secluded then they could have taken the place of monks and priestesses in the eyes of the villagers." Sesshomaru looks at Satoru and then at Suguru. "It's rare to come across those with energy, such as your mates. Most of them are weak."
Satoru shrugs. That isn't new information to him. Most sorcerers are weak. They die too early.
"Mama, can I have that bed-time story now?" Shippo yawns as he pushes his empty plate away. Kagome's plate still has a massive amount of meat and no vegetables on it.
"Of course." She stands and then looks around the room. "Jaken!" A green imp waddles into the room with giant bug like eyes. Satoru grimaces. This Jaken is one of the uglier demons he has seen.
"Human, do not call me as though you are my master. I only respond to Sesshomaru-sama."
Kagome rolls her eyes. "Please show Satoru and Suguru to my room. I'll be there after I get Shippo settled in."
Satoru perks up. Shippo has his own room? He nods his head in agreement. Suguru covers his mouth with his hand and yawns to hide the smirk that keeps trying to snake its way along his face. They thank Sesshomaru for his hospitality and follow Jaken as he leads them to the North wing.
Jaken grumbles as he stomps away. Satoru shrugs and walks into the room. Oh. That bed is massive. He rests his arm on Suguru's shoulder.
"That bed looks modern," Suguru points out.
"That's what you care about?" Satoru huffs. "Give me the stuff so I can get the room ready." He takes the bags from Suguru and sets the lube on the vanity. He's no history junkie, but Suguru does have a point. Some of the stuff in this room does feel modern. Kagome either instructed them on how to make it, or demons are more advanced than the humans of this time.
"I was just making an observation," Suguru says. "This room is specifically tailored to Kagome, even though she's hardly here. Sesshomaru must care a great deal about her." He makes a fist. "I have a lot of questions. Why would a demon consider a priestess to be family?"
Satoru scratches the back of his head. "I don't think it's so much that a demon considers a priestess to be family, as it is so much that you can't help but love Kagome."
Suguru unclenches his fist. "She truly is something." He smiles gently.
The door opens and Kagome walks in. She blows out a breath and leans against the door. "Shippo wanted me to read him three books, but luckily he knocked out mid-way through the second one." She shakes her head and then freezes. "Why are you guys looking at me like that?" She takes a step back, but there's nowhere for her to go.
"Hey, Gome-chan, your barriers are soundproof, right?" Satoru asks, going for nonchalant, but failing miserably.
"Kagome," Suguru calls. "Come lie on Satoru's back."
Satoru glares over his shoulder, but Suguru quirks a brow, challenging him to do something. Kinda hard to do something with a cock in his ass though.
"Don't listen to him," Satoru says. "You can lie down in front of me." He wets his lips, pleading with her to do just that. He needs to see her. Needs to taste her.
Needs Suguru to stop trying to monopolize her.
"I asked first." Suguru grips his hips and slams into him.
Fuckkk. Satoru breathes out his mouth. Kagome bites her lip as she approaches. She swings her legs over and uses Satoru like a chair.
He groans. Suguru is always hogging Kagome. Whatever happened to sharing is caring or whatever?
"Good girl," Suguru praises. "Now lie back and touch yourself." He snaps his hips and Satoru squeezes his eyes shut.
This is bullshit.
"Like this?" Kagome murmurs.
"Shit yeah," Suguru breathes. "Baby, you're so wet."
Satoru turns his head, but he can't see shit, and this is complete and utter bullshit. Suguru is a dick. He wants to see Kagome too.
"Give me your fingers, I wanna taste," Suguru commands. He hums. Suguru's cock twitches while Satoru's balls tighten.
This is bullshit. This is bullshit. This is bullshit. He chants to himself, gnashing his molars.
"Kagome, please," he begs as his body rocks forward. Suguru's fingers dig into his hips. "Kagome, please." He's whining now.
She slides off his back. "What is it, Satoru?" There's a twinge of concern in her voice. He swears Kagome is the only one that considers his feelings around here.
"Ride me," he says.
Suguru scoffs as he pulls out. He slaps Satoru's ass. "Turn over, brat."
Satoru sighs as he does that. He reaches for Kagome and urges her to climb on him. His cock twitches. So close and yet so far away from what he wants.
"You're so needy," Kagome breathes, gripping his cock with one hand as she eases down on his length. Her eyes roll back. "Fuck. Satoru you're so…"
Suguru tugs Kagome's head back by her hair, forcing her body to arch as he sinks his cock into Satoru's ass.
"He is needy," Suguru agrees. "But so am I." Suguru pounds into him. His balls slap against his skin in tune to Kagome rocking her hips.
His body doesn't know what to focus on. The pleasure of Suguru's fat cock in his ass, or the way Kagome's pussy grips him like a vice.
"Shit," he breathes, forcing his eyes to stay open. Kagome is arched so beautifully with her tits in the air. Suguru lets go of his hold on her hair and wraps an arm around her neck.
Kagome cries out. One hand on his abdomen and the other on Suguru's bicep. Shit. She fucking likes that. Satoru lets out a shuddering breath. He didn't think she could get any tighter.
"So close," she slurs. "He's feels so good."
Satoru's nostrils flare. When she says shit like that, it drives him crazy. He digs his heels into the bed as she rides him. He's close too. Gonna fill her up until she's leaking all over the bed with his come.
Suguru pulls out and lifts Kagome up and off Satoru's cock. His mouth pops open. That mother fuck…
Kagome gasps. Her hand wraps around his cock as her head rests on him. Her body jerks forward. Suguru grips her hips and snaps his hips into her.
Damn.
Suguru is fucking her like he seriously wants to brand his name on her. Satoru swallows. His cock twitches, needy, in Kagome's hand. Damn. He was close.
"Get over here, Satoru," Suguru barks out.
Satoru huffs. "Excuse me?"
"Get your bratty ass over here and eat my ass," Suguru snaps as he pounds into Kagome, whose eyes roll back.
Shit. She looks drunk. Dick drunk. And Suguru expects him to move from his spot and miss out on this view?
Kagome lets go of him and tries to lift herself up with her arms, but Suguru only pounds into her harder. Suguru's eyes snap to Satoru's.
He grumbles as he shimmies out from under Kagome and moves around to the end of the bed. "How the hell am I supposed to do this?"
Suguru looks back at him and pants. His long hair sticks to his back. "You're a genius, aren't you?"
Cheeky bastard.
Satoru grins, but it's all teeth. He lies on his back. "Can't believe I'm letting you sit on my face," he grumbles, before licking Suguru.
"Sug—ah! I can't—"
"I know you can," Suguru growls. "You can and you will take it." He hisses.
Satoru reaches down and strokes his cock as he eats Suguru out. He would much rather be eating Kagome out. The way she tastes when she comes on his tongue has him wanting to go back for seconds, thirds…at this point, he'd gladly put her come in a cup so he can taste her every time he gets thirsty.
Suguru lifts, so Satoru sits up. He turns around and forgets how to breathe. Suguru clamps down on the spot between Kagome's shoulder and neck.
Oh shit.
Suguru is trying to brand her.
His Adam's apple bobs. Fuck, now he wants to brand her. He needs everyone to know just who she belongs to at first glance.
Suguru wraps his arms around Kagome, keeping her upright and keeping her flush to his body as he dominates her. It's the only other description Satoru can think of. Suguru isn't just fucking Kagome. No, he's dominating her and leaving no room for misinterpretation. Maybe it's something in the air or maybe it's from being around nothing but demons—dog demons—in this estate, but something primal has taken over Suguru.
Something primal has taken over him, too.
He hops off the bed and grabs the lube, squirting a generous amount into his palm. Satoru strokes his cock with the lube and then squeezes a bit more into his palm. He doesn't want to hurt Suguru. At least not this time. Satoru climbs back onto the bed and fingers Suguru's ass, preparing him.
Suguru freezes and then shudders. Not once does he let go of his hold of Kagome. Satoru smirks as he adds another finger. He bites his lip as he pulls his fingers out and guides his cock in.
"Really?" Suguru huffs.
"I'm not the only taking it up the ass tonight," he quips, wrapping his hand around Suguru's hair.
"F'ucking brat," Suguru pants, rocking forward as Satoru snaps his hips forward.
Kagome groans. "You two aren't seriously arguing right now."
Satoru's eyes roll back as he pants. His balls tighten. Kami, even her groans of exasperation, gets him off. "Keep talking, baby," he grunts out.
Kagome squeals. "Suguru!"
"Ah, I'm not sorry," Suguru quips.
"Fill her up," Satoru commands, tugging harder on Suguru's hair. His hips move back and forth erratically. He's blindingly chasing that sweet pleasure. He's so far gone, he doesn't even care about releasing in Suguru. The night is young. There'll be plenty of time to come in Kagome before the morning light. His curse energy surges within him, seeping from his gums to his teeth.
"Sa-to-ru!" Suguru grunts, falling forward. His arms shoot out, caging Kagome in.
Satoru inhales. He doesn't know what's going on with him, but he clamps down harder on Suguru, imbuing him with cursed energy. He continues to thrust into Suguru, causing Suguru to rock into Kagome.
"Shit," Suguru breathes. "Feral bastard."
"You love it," he quips, raising his head. He swipes his tongue along his lips. "Kagome loves it more."
Kagome laughs, but it turns into a low whine as Suguru wraps his arm around her, pulling her flush against him. "How about I love you both?"
"Mhmm, you should love me more," Satoru says. His eyebrows pinch together as he lets go of Suguru's hair and grips his hips. "I love you more than Suguru."
"Fuck off," Suguru grunts.
"I'm trying to."
"It's okay," Suguru huffs. "My love for you is more than enough to fill in the love you have for Satoru."
Satoru narrows his eyes, pulls back, and surges back into Suguru one more time. He comes with a sigh. His head rolls back. Suguru groans and pulls out of Kagome right as Satoru does the same. He catches his breath and then tightens his hold on Suguru's hips and not so gently tosses him to the side.
"Satoru! You fucker," Suguru yells, from the floor, but Satoru brushes his cursing off like water. He has more important things to do. Satoru reaches for Kagome's legs and hoists her up, pulling her cunt closer to his face. He dives right in, humming in pleasure as his tongue plunders inside of her.
"Satoru," she half squeals. Her legs tremble. Kami, she smells amazing.
"Someone has to clean ya up."
"You're a fucking glutton," Suguru says, climbing back onto the bed. He runs a hand over Kagome's hair. "You want to take a bath after this?"
"Mhmm, yeah."
"Who said I was done?" Satoru complains, pulling his face away to grab Kagome's leg. He lifts it up and nudges her on to her side.
"Y-you're not?" Kagome's eyes roll back. "Sensitive."
"Hope you weren't planning on getting sleep tonight," he quips.
"What?" Kagome tightens around him and he breathes out of his mouth. "Suguru! You're on my side, right?"
Suguru strokes his cock and then kisses Kagome. "I'm always on your side." He licks his lips and then makes eye contact with Satoru.
"I'm not going to survive the night," Kagome grumbles.
Satoru and Suguru laugh. Oh, she'll survive the night alright. He won't guarantee she'll be walking properly in the morning, but that's a problem for tomorrow. For now, he wants to savor this moment. Satoru pulls back and thrusts back into her. Her breasts jerk from the action, and he has to bite his lip.
Yeah, he's gonna savor this alright.
***
A/N: This chapter ran away from me. Kenjaku is only a problem in the modern world. He wasn't in a body fit for fighting and even if he was, he wasn't gonna try to take them on. Normally I write a chapter in chronological order, but the sex scene actually came to me first (I'll see myself out lol). Next update will probably be Accidental again since I have some of that chapter drafted and then I'll update One Night.
"Was Sukuna part of this lore too?" - No, only because Sukuna didn't know about Satoru's CT at first so I figured that meant the big three clans didn't come into play until after Sukuna had already split his soul.
"If she's pregnant by the time they return to the present, will passing through the well affect the fetus?" - I don't see why it wouldn't since that would mean the baby is constantly being exposed to outside magic.
"Do I know about the JJK x Disney crack ships?" - Yessss, those tick toks had me in a chokehold for a while lol.
"Where am I publishing the original story?" - On Tapas and Scribblehub because they have a schedule option. I'll start posting it in April. Chapters will be free to read and I'll have a ream (like ) for early-release chapters.
Hope you have an amazing weekend! Stay safe and warm. Drink your water and take your vitamins. Refill your well and make sure you are taking in media that brings you joy. Take care and see you next week!

Part One | Part Two | Part Three | Part Four | Part Five | Part Six | Part Seven
Summary: Sometimes confessions come a moment too late.
Tumblr media
Glancing up at the clock hanging on the kitchen wall, Mama let out a soft sigh and chewed on her bottom lip. It was well past noon and as far as she knew, Inuyasha hadn’t eaten anything since his abrupt arrival a few nights ago. He’d left the guest room to relieve himself but actively avoided interaction outside of Kagome. Even when her daughter was there, Inuyasha seemed skittish even which was very much unlike him. Perhaps it was the fact that he’d broken a window but, to Mama, that non-accident was actually rather endearing. Expensive and a little annoying but endearing nonetheless. That boy had wholeheartedly believed her daughter was in danger and took the quickest steps to come to her rescue. If what Kagome said on her way to school this morning was true, Inuyasha had only been reanimated for a few minutes before he arrived.
And since being reunited with the woman he loved, from what Kagome implied and what Mama was able to hear through the walls, Inuyasha was not handling things very well. It didn’t take a genius to know he was frightened because, well, people don’t come back from the dead. Normally. From what Mama gleaned from her daughter’s ranting, Inuyasha’s former fiancé had also been reanimated and it had been quite traumatic for the poor boy. So he was very likely frightened that he too had been brought back for an evil purpose or rather, worry that he hadn’t truly been brought back at all.
Glancing at the small hallway that led to where the poor boy hid while Kagome tried to attend a day of clases, Mama exhaled deeply before nodding once to herself and pushing back her chair. Inuyasha had not eaten anything in over a month. Starving himself did no one any favors and she knew all too well how one can get so lost in their own mind that taking care of oneself simply didn’t seem important.
The faint sniffle she heard confirmed that secondary theory. Who wouldn’t be emotionally devastated to learn they had died? Not for a few seconds or minutes but weeks. He’d been dead for weeks and by some act of god, he’d been returned to the land of the living. If Mama was in his shoes, she’d assume that this was just some cruel joke. Especially if she’d loved her whole life being told she was evil. The answer she would have come to - a slightly rational one - was that he hadn’t been brought back at all. After all, as deeply as those two loved each other, they’d never been what one would call a couple. More…
Well, they shared a reciprocated love that neither of them wanted for reasons that were their own. A begrudging love that they had decided to stop fighting. Death must have put a lot into perspective for them both.
Humming, Mama knocked on the door and the soft sniffles instantly ceased.
“Inuyasha? Can I come in?” Mama asked softly before opening the door before he could answer. What she saw confirmed everything she already knew to be true. The poor boy, still so visibly young, was curled into a ball around a pillow. His posture screamed fragility and betrayed how utterly lost he felt.
He needed a mother and luckily, Mama felt her own motherly instincts flare to life.
The first thing she noticed was how poorly he was pretending to sleep. Yes, he seemed relatively relaxed but having raised two children Mama knew the signs. The breaths were too deep. His body a little too tense. The reflective slit of amber glancing at her, of course, was the most blaring sign of all.
That and Inuyasha notoriously woke up if he heard so much as a pin drop. Him acting like the door opening and someone talking to him didn’t so much as cause him to stir was also a dead giveaway.
“I was wondering what you’d like for lunch,” Mama hummed softly as she casually made her way over and sat on the foot of the bed, “We have ramen or I could make you a sandwich if you’d like. Or we could even go out and have lunch. There’s a wonderful little restaurant. I thought of you when it first opened.”
“I was asleep woman,” Inuyasha grumbled hoarsely and Mama barely repressed the urge to roll her eyes.
“And now you’re awake. I would really love if you joined me. It’s a buffet,” she offered bemusedly as she reached over to gently massage his calf and gave it a light squeeze, “Basically it’s a place where you can eat as much food as you want.”
Giving up his farce, Inuyasha spared her a withering glare before snuggling further under the heavy quilt and letting out a sigh to end all sighs.
“Not interested,” Inuyasha mumbled - seemingly coming to terms with the fact that she was not going away.
“Well I’m very hungry and I would love it if I didn’t have to go eat by myself,” Mama countered and those fuzzy triangles seemed to droop.
“The old man isn’t around?”
“He’s at doctors appointments all day,” Mama explained as she continued gently running his hand up and down his blanket-covered calf, “I know you don’t know me very well but could you do me a favor and join me?”
Lifting his head incrementally, Mama saw how puffy his eyes were but didn’t address this observation.
“Why?” the poor boy mumbled before clearing his throat and amended, “Why me?”
“Well because I enjoy your company, of course,” Mama countered like it was obvious as she sent him a sweet smile. Those amber eyes wavered.
“No you don’t,” Inuyasha scoffed dejectedly before allowing his head to fall back into the pillow, “Just go by yourself.”
When Mama said nothing and simply remained where she was, Inuyasha sighed.
“I said I’m not hungry…”
Again, Mama didn’t reply and this seemed to bother him.
“W-why don’t you just eat here?”
“Well it just seems like far too much effort to only cook for myself,” Mama bluffed and Inuyasha let out another long sigh before snuggling deeper under the covers.
“You’re worse than she is,” Inuyasha grumbled as he closed his eyes, “I’m fine. I eat less than you humans. And I’m…I’m just tired. I’m okay. You don’t need to worry about me.”
Inuyasha had never struck Mama as a liar so the fact that he was flipping the script on what even she knew to be true was concerning to say the least. Still, Mama also knew enough to know he’d been alone all his life. Had to be strong all his life and muscle through every conceivable injury on his own. He was hurting and trying to go it alone.
“Well I’d very much like to feed you and I’m not taking no as an answer” Mama murmured affectionately as she sighed and stood up to move towards the head on the bed. Sitting back down on the soft mattress, Mama hesitantly reached out to stroke his hair and even though he tensed at the contact, he didn’t push her away. Instead, after several minutes, he relaxed and cautiously moved his head so her fingers brushed against his right ear. Mama took him up on the cue with a adoring smile.
For the next ten minutes or so, the comfortable silence continued until Inuyasha fidgeted slightly and let out a shuddering sigh.
“I-if I ask you somethin’ you won’t tell Kagome, huh?” he asked thickly as he cracked one eye open and with a reassuring smile, Mama nodded.
“Why?”
Her smile faltered slightly.
“Why what, sweetheart?”
“Why…why’re you being nice to me?” he mumbled awkwardly, “I…that’s not my real question but…”
“Because I consider you one of my babies and it’s my job to take care of my babies,” she replied as she gave his ear a soft pet before adding when he looked confused and miserable, “You’re my son and I love you.”
“But I’m not…”
“I’m sure you know better than anyone that you can choose your family” Mama hummed, “Would you be okay choosing me to be a mother to you?”
Letting out a shaky sigh, Inuyasha closed his eyes and swallowed. As weird as that proposal was, it actually had its appeal. And was probably not worth fighting. Since this woman birthed Kagome, she was probably just as prone to adopting the broken as her daughter. In fact, that trait was probably genetic.
That wasn’t to say he was opposed to the idea or that he didn’t like being the broken thing being adopted but rather, he didn’t see a point in fighting what had already happened. This crazy woman saw him as her son and seeing as how he planned on one day marrying her daughter, that type of affection was probably a good thing. Maybe she already saw him as a son-in-law in which case this proclamation was a very, very good thing. If that was how she saw him, it meant she definitely wouldn’t have an issue with a half-breed marrying her daughter.
“I had a mom,” he murmured with feigned resignation, “B-but you could be my second one. If you want.”
Even though he had believed this turn of events was good, all his response accomplished was for Inuyasha to fall even further in despair. This had to be hell. As absolutely amazing and reassuring as it would be to have a parent figure again, someone to turn to for advice…for yet another someone to love him unconditionally…
“What’s wrong sweetheart?” Mama murmured suddenly as she wiped something away from his cheek before resuming the petting of his ear, “Are you…”
Touching his cheek himself, Inuyasha rubbed the unwanted moisture between his fingers before deciding that maybe words should be utilized. Maybe she’d say the right thing and everything would make sense. Death had changed him. So far in just plain weird ways but it had changed him nonetheless. There seemed to be no point in blocking people out anymore. And given that he might still be…you know…what harm would it do to ask anyway.
“I…I’m just tired” Inuyasha admitted evasively before trying to become one with the mattress and coming to the conclusion that someone else needed to figure out what was wrong with him, “I…I feel so tired. All the time. I never feel like this.”
Mama hummed and gave his ear a pet before running her fingers over his scalp.
“And I’m different. I can’t…I can’t stop it,” he continued miserably - fully giving into the idea of needing a more adult adult, “I…I never…I don’t…”
Unable to find the words to describe his personality shift, Inuyasha cleared his throat and stretched out one leg.
“I just feel different,” he finished lamely before repeating, “And I’m tired. Everything’s exhausting and I’ve only been…been back a few days. Why am I tired?”
Nodding in understanding, Mama dipped down to press a kiss to his temple that he didn’t resist. In fact, that small gesture opened his emotional floodgates.
“Dunno if Kagome ever said but…but my fiancé got…got murdered and brought back,” Inuyasha whined softly, “Eats souls to keep moving. What if…what if I’m like her and that’s why I’m tired? Because I haven’t eaten any souls…”
“I think you’re tired because you’re sad sweetheart,” Mama sighed as her hand gently moved to stroke his cheek - a touch he leaned into, “And confused. And afraid. Which is a perfectly normal way to feel about what you went through.”
“I’ve been sad before, really sad, and I wasn’t tired like this,” Inuyasha countered as he pressed his cheek into her palm, “I don’t think it’s that.”
“There are different types of sad,” Mama cooed and Inuyasha cracked eye open, “And…”
“I’m just so tired. I’m…this isn’t real. Cant be. I’m never like this” he interrupted hoarsely as he turned onto his back and looked up at her exactly like a child needing a parent to tell them it’s okay.
“I know it doesn’t mean very much but I promise you I know this is very real,” Mama offered as she brushed some hairs away from his puffy face, “And if this is all in your head, would that really be so bad? Being surrounded by people who love you?”
She paused and sighed, “You know, if its any consolation, I felt tired like what you’re saying when Kagome’s father died…”
“How did he die?” Inuyasha interrupted hoarsely before blushing furiously and amending, “N-not that’s it any of my business. Just…”
“A car hit him ten years ago,” Mama hummed sadly - gently stroking his cheek with the back of her hand.
“Knew I hated those things. Kagome acts like they’re safe and no one ever gets hurt but they’re obviously death machines,” Inuyasha mumbled and Mama nodded in agreement as her own throat grew tight.
“Well, I don’t think she remembers. She was only five when it happened…”
Inuyasha’s brow furrowed slight at this but he didn’t voice whatever thought he had.
“Sota hadn’t been born yet,” Mama added thickly, “And…”
“My mother died when I was five,” Inuyasha suddenly offered without thinking before clearing his throat and scooting out of her reach, “I didn’t mean to interrupt. I’m…”
“You don’t need to apologize,” Mama cut him off with a sad little smile, “That must’ve been very hard for you.”
Pushing himself into a sitting position, Inuyasha pulled his knees into his chest and rested his chin atop his knees. Maybe that was the cutoff then. Whatever powers controlling his life giving him the answer to his question. He had an expiration date. Kagome probably did too. Together until their child turned freaking five and then the universe would…
Or maybe…
“The same thing won’t happen to you,” Mama hummed knowingly, “Or Kagome. You’ll both be fine sweetheart. I promise.”
Wrinkling his nose at the bizarre mind reading and very empty promise, Inuyasha glanced at her and absently chewed his bottom lip.
“I-if its not fine, would you take them? Not that..that it’ll happen or nothing but…but, you know….if it happens,” Inuyasha asked quietly and Mama felt her heart crack.
“Of course. And I’m sure your friends would make sure your babies wouldn’t be alone either,” Mama soothed as she reached out to rub his upper back, “But nothing is going to happen to you. Or…”
“I already died once,” Inuyasha pointed out before closing his eyes and letting out a shuddering sigh, “And it’s just…I keep trying to remember what it was like but…but when I’m awake…nothing. But…every time I try to sleep I just…it’s like a memory almost. Just cold. And floating. Like…I’m floating up in the stars. Not knowing who I am or why I’m there. I just…”
“You dream of being in the stars?” Mama asked quietly - surprised that he was being so talkative yet grateful he was talking things out to her - and Inuyasha shrugged.
“Something like that,” he replied uneasily, “Sometimes my sword…it looks like…like my dream does….so maybe…”
Inuyasha blinked and inhaled sharply.
“The meido” he repeated barely above a whisper, “I never…it’s a portal.”
“Inuyasha?”
He let out a terrified sounding laugh and shivered.
“That’s where I was,” he breathed shakily, “And…so this…this is…”
His expressive eyes widened and he laughed shakily, “Bastard really brought me back.”
The strange smile on his face slowly faded as did the color in his face as he suddenly mumbled a faint ‘ah shit.’
For a moment, he stared ahead in mild horror before Inuyasha let out a long groan and buried his face. That just made everything worse. Since being brought back, he’d hurt Kagome. Made her worried sick when he really should’ve been showing her how important and loved she’d been. Told her his hopes and dreams for the future. Made up for lost time…
What was he supposed to do now? She’d be second guessing his devotion for the rest of her life. Probably think he was just going along for the ride assuming it wasn’t real…
But now he’d finally gotten his head out of his ass. Who cared that Sesshomaru showed him mercy? Stranger things had happened. But he’d fucked up their reunion and…and…what was he ever going to do…
“First, I think you need to eat,” Mama interrupted before he could devolve into a panic attack, “I think you’ll like the buffet and maybe while we’re eating, we can plan something sweet for you to do with Kagome.”
Lifting his head, Inuyasha gave his newfound maternal figure a curious yet exhausted look.
“How do you do that?” Inuyasha asked curiously, “Know what I’m thinkin’…”
“You’re very easy to read sweetheart,” Mama laughed softly and Inuyasha rolled his eyes with a grunt.
“Am not,” he huffed and with a soft laugh, Mama shrugged. Truth was it was rather obvious where his mind went. The groan of frustration and self-loathing expression before he buried his face in context made it very clear he was remembering how he’d been acting these past few days. Even Mama had heard his acidic ‘don’t touch me’ the first night. Inuyasha probably believed he’d made yet another blunder in his relationship with Kagome and his own doubts had ruined everything.
But nothing had been broken or ruined. Kagome would understand and she loved him just as fiercely as he loved her.
“Get ready, okay? I’ll be in the kitchen,” she ordered warmly and as she left, Inuyasha watched her go with the strangest expression.
It took longer than it should have for Inuyasha to mentally prepare to leave and find the energy to leave the safe feeling mattress but soon enough, he appeared in the kitchen looking disheveled but present.
And while Mama seemed pleased he had come out of the room, she did remind him very briefly of his own mother for an entirely different reason. He might not remember much about the woman who birthed him but…
“Let’s run a brush through that hair. Make you look more presentable…”
Despite himself, the corner of his lips twitched upwards and with a huff, Inuyasha sank down into the kitchen chair. There really was no point fighting this. It was happening whether he liked it or not.

 Collapsing to his knees, Miroku stared numbly at the unearthed grave – a faint ringing sound piercing his ear drums and blocking out all else. This was exactly why he urged Kagome to reconsider burying their dearly departed friend and taking his ashes to the modern era where they would be safe from abuse. His violet eyes drifted miserably to the ant covered cake plate and he wilted further.
Not only where they going to have to face whatever Inuyasha had become but they would undoubtedly be forced to do so without their miko sister. Since Inuyasha had left this world, there had always been the possibility that Kagome would leave it also. In a different way, of course, but…but they all knew the real reason she returned to this era and it had nothing to do with finding jewel shards. With that reason gone…and now potentially a puppet whose purpose would undoubtedly be to torture her? Kagome was lost to them forever.
It was maddening that death had come for Inuyasha and for the past month, the monk had been struggling with this development. Of all of them, the only one who should have been permitted to die was…
And it would’ve been better for everyone if…
After all…
Chest heaving, all the self-loathing and grief the monk had been repressing began bubbling to the surface. It was completely unjust that Inuyasha was taken before his time while he, a worthless monk who had nothing to offer, was still living off borrowed time. Why would the gods spare him and strike down the man his friends truly needed? What use was he to…
“We don’t know that his body has been stolen,” Sango tried as she knelt down beside the monk and hesitantly placed a hand on his shoulder, “Maybe…maybe…”
“It should’ve been me,” Miroku hissed suddenly making the slayer startle and quickly retract her hand, “This…this never should have happened. It should’ve been me. I’m already not long for this world. It…”
“Look at me,” Sango demanded softly and the monk violently shook his head.
“What use would I be to anyone? My ashes would’ve remained undisturbed,” Miroku snapped hoarsely – his clenched hands sliding off his lap and latching onto the grass beside him, “Better yet, in the event of my death, likely there would be no ashes for anyone to steal and…and it would be better than…”
Completely at a loss, Sango tried to remain calm and level-headed. Of all the things she expected Miroku to do upon discovering the open grave, it was not…this.
So, she did the only thing she could think of as he continued to ramble about the unfairness of it all and his apparently very poor view of himself…
She collected him – forcibly – into her arms and held him as tightly as she could. Something which initially irked the monk as he tried to fight her off but once he realized that Sango truly was much, much stronger than him…
Miroku sagged in defeat and laughed. The sound somewhat crazed and chilling.
“My, my what an opponent you must be,” he sniffled with acidic amusement as he lifted his arms and tried to hold her with all his apparently limited strength, “You could very well snap me in half if you wanted.”
“Ah, if I wanted to which I don’t,” Sango hummed affectionately as she pressed her lips against his temple which made him sag further, “I need you to calm down, okay? Can you do that for me?”
Sniffling again, Miroku nodded and let out a controlled breath. For one minute. Two minutes…then an hour. All while Sango held him upright and gently played with tendrils of his tied hair.
“I apologize,” Miroku finally breathed shakily as the slayer released him and he sat back with the most miserable expression Sango had ever seen on his face, “I simply…I was unprepared for this development and…”
Trailing off when slayer cupped his cheek, Miroku closed his eyes and leaned into her touch.
“I’ll need to keep a closer eye on you from this point forward,” the monk mumbled as he cracked open one eye to gaze at her affectionately, “It would appear the rest of this quest is up to us and you are a far greater threat than I could ever be. You’ll be the primary target.”
Sango pursed her lips and gave the monk a concerned once over.
“Miroku there’s a reason Naraku cursed your family,” Sango pointed out and Miroku gave her a morbidly hopeful look, “Your grandfather was most likely very close to defeating him. That means you’re just as big a threat to him as I am. More even.”
Miroku frowned but seemed somewhat encouraged.
“As for Inuyasha…You told me that we could save Kohaku, right?” Sango asked after a long tense moment and Miroku wilted.
“Forgive me for saying so but Inuyasha is far more likely to be beyond reach. More than once he’s almost been lost to us already. A single jewel shard and…”
“Inuyasha is stronger than you give him credit for,” Sango chided gently and Miroku simply allowed more of his weight to rest in her palm, “As are you. For what its worth, I’m glad you’re still with me. I…I don’t know what I’d do if I lost you too.”
Miroku bit his lip for a moment trying to find a way to comfort or counter before something warm and soft pressed against his lips. Eyes flying open, Miroku registered the kiss for what it was a moment too late.
A situation he quickly reconciled by pulling her back for another. It seemed rather strange and completely inappropriate to share their first real kiss kneeling next to their friend’s grave but neither of them choose to address that aspect of this moment. Out of the ashes of grief rose a new beginning and hopefully whatever challenges awaited them would allow them a brighter future.
Still, there were things that could not wait. Kaede must be informed if she did not already know. Probably Kikyo as well – as much as they loathed to admit it. As often as that undead corpse attempted to kill Inuyasha, no one else had ever been permitted to attack him directly. While no one else seemed to have noticed, Miroku certainly had picked up on Kikyo’s retreating aura during the battle of Tsubaki and more than once, Kikyo’s spiritual arrow had come flying to Inuyasha’s rescue.
Yes, if Inuyasha’s body was being used for improper purposes, Kikyo very likely would serve as a useful ally in the battle to get it back. Unless, of course, she was the one who stole the body in the first place.
“We should let Kaede know,” Miroku muttered quietly as he pulled back and pressed his forehead against the slayer’s, “And we can go from there.”
Humming, Sango responded with a soft kiss against his nose.
“If it makes you feel any better, I’d steal your ashes,” the slayer teased, “Use them for my own purposes.”
Sniffling through a laugh, the monk rolled his eyes and shook his head.
“I know this must be shocking but no, no that admission does not improve my mood…”

@inu-mothership Bingo Night!
Drabbles for a mixture of pairings, both romantic and friendly, with randomized prompts.
All word counts: 100
Kagome/Toga/Lion
100 words
Toga Taisho was incomparable.
A grin as broad as his shoulders, silver hair swaying down his back, wicked golden eyes that ensnared her, and a laugh like a lion’s roar.
Kagome could barely think of anything else but him and how completely filled their office with his presence alone.
Jovial. Clever. Witty. Thoughtful.
Married.
His only flaw.
Still, she remained respectful and longed from afar, wishing she could be the one he went home to at night.
“Kagome! Come meet my son!” He called, and she went without question.
Their eyes met, their souls surged, everyone smirked knowingly.
Toga who?
Koga/Kagome/Honey
Word Count: 100
Maybe it was her ability to see the Shikon shards that had drawn him in at first.
But it was her sweetness, her fire, her resolve that kept him coming back.
And she smelled like honey.
Verbally she clung to Inuyasha, and he admired her loyalty.
But his eyes and his nose worked just fine; he was gaining ground.
A wink, a smirk, a flirty gesture and her scent went cold.
A listening ear, a thoughtful remark, a truthful compliment and she blushed and stuttered.
Love was not a grand show.
Love was not strength and speed.
Love was learning.
Koga/Sango/Buff
Word Count: 100
CW: Character Death
She chose Inuyasha, and that was fine, but he liked Kagome so he still visited.
That was how he noticed the slayer.
Listless, aimless, empty.
“What’s with her?”
“Remember Miroku?”
“Yeah.”
“He… didn’t make it.”
“Oh shit.”
So they sparred to pass time and be distracted.
Brown eyes warmed and weak smiles bloomed, she was vibrant and dynamic and strong.
And buff as hell.
His eyes lingered, his hands drifted, she leaned in and embraced a second chance.
And so did he.
Thanks to Kagome, he knew he could love a human.
Thanks to Sango, he had one to love.
Miroku/Kikyo/Chocolate
Word count: 100
Her hair was a sheet of black silk; her eyes were- what was that sweet stuff Kagome always brought- like chocolate.
Miroku would never admit it out loud, but he found the Miko Kikyo fascinating.
She was beautiful to be sure, poised and regal and graceful.
Hateful.
The walking dead, a reanimated corpse, a consumer of maiden souls, all things that would damn her soul if she still had most of it.
And he found something in her that echoed in him, a darkness he couldn’t shake, two spiritual warriors carrying Naraku’s taint.
But at least his heart was beating.
Inuyasha/Izayoi/Blue
Word Count: 100
CW CHARACTER DEATH
Black soot from the flames consuming her childhood home sprinkled across his silver moon hair, his golden eyes empty, all that was left of him in the wreckage, besides bits of torn silk and shattered armor.
She wrenched away, hating her weakness, so certain she’d needed to find him in the first place- just in case.
She clutched the sleeping baby tighter to her chest and walked away, picking over charred beams and broken tiles.
And then she looked.
So like him, pale hair and amber eyes, wrapped snugly in fiery red.
And she’d always imagined her baby in blue.
Kagura/Toga/chestnut
Word Count: 100
She’d been elated when she’d first seen him.
Silver hair, golden eyes, only one person it could be.
But it was his father, waving casually and eating raw chestnuts.
“Aren’t those dangerous uncooked?”
“Aren’t we already dead?”
Fair enough.
She followed him around a little- silver dogs were so fun to annoy- and he was full of wisdoms and anecdotes as she imagined fathers were supposed to be.
“Will you watch over him forever?” He asked as Kagura spied on Sesshomaru’s clumsy courtship of that human Miko.
“No.”
She was free now in death; she wouldn’t chain herself to life.

Another thing, ppl really underestimate just how kind Kagome was in the whole Inuyasha x Kikyo situation bc y'all can bet your asses that if i lost half of my damn soul to reanimate my boyfriend's ex and he continuously cheated on me with her i would be way more pissed than she was.

Not to bring up the distasteful teenager memory of Twilight LMAO, but yall remember that part of the story where it is revealed after Rosalie turns into a vampire she goes and devours every single one of the men who r*ped her.
Fierce Corpse!Qin Su coming for Jin Guangshan’s life.
JIGGY was always looking for ways to make a fierce corpse wasn’t he? Well consider this.
Madam Qin confronts JGY, but it was already too late. Qin Su was already pregnant. JGY, being the dumbest smart person, realized he has fucked up, but what to do? It’s not like he can tell Madam Qin he knocked up his own sister accidentally. Unknowing of this, Madam Qin then went to Qin Su to tell her the truth. Surely even if that degenerate won’t stop this marriage, once Qin Su finds out they are related, she wouldn’t go through with it.
Well, little did Madam Qin expect, once Qin Su finds out, she’s so overcome with disgust she takes her own life (canon compliant, I think? idk what that episode was about to be honest. I always assumed Jiggy drugged her to keep her quiet, but Qin Su was the one to take her own life. Jin Rusong is at best a ball of cells at this stage and abortion is a staple trope of cdrama don’t @ me. I take no criticisms.)
Well shit, now Qin Su is half a step away from death. Jiggy discovers this first, and is like O.O oh feck, but also... opportunity????  He recruits evil gremlin extraordinaire Xue Yang, and beginner’s luck takes them to a successful resurrection.
*cue Mary Shelly shaking her head from beyond the grave or... in the future....technically.*
Qin Su is rightfully like wtf JGY, but Jiggy is like aight sis i know you’re mad, but hey now that everyone knows what’s the deal here, I think we have a common enemy: Jin Guangslut. Should we kill him or should we kill him?
Xue Yang: yo so .... you still gonna get married or what?
Qin Su: if you even think about getting married i swear to god -
JGY: ....okay, how about “fake” marry. Once dear old Dad is dead, we can...idk have an amicable separation. I can even set you up on a date with a guy I know in the fierce corpse community. His sister is still in my basement come to think of it -
QS: what
JGY: what
QS: you are a fucking nutjob, Jiggy, you know that? I can’t believe I was attracted to you.
JGY: first of all that’s hurtful, but... hey at least you didn’t insult my mother.
QS: why would i? our mothers are innocent. *deep sigh* okay fine, how should we kill JGS, I vote for castration. Also *points to the black veins on her paste-y complexion* this is gonna be a problem.
XY: *quirk an eye brow* realllly starting to see the family resemblance now. Don’t worry I got make up to cover that up. Also gotta find you some blush, so you don’t look so ... undead.
~
JGY “so we get prostitutes -”
QS “No. Jiggy, I’m sensing some internalized classism. Let’s just sic Xue Yang on him and be done with it.”
JGY “....you were less bossy before.”
QS “I was also less dead before. Also, Xue Yang doesn’t mind, do you dear?”
XY *eating the candied pastries QS got him* “Nah, not at all, jiejie. I can wear a dress and get dolled up if you want, but I want silk and the dress needs to be tailored. Bespoke. *points to his plate* These are great. Do you have more?”
JGY: *facepalm* what have done.
QS: created a fierce corpse you can’t control. Karma’s a bitch, isn’t it brother?
~
QS “I feel bad for Chifeng-zun. If I had to sit and watch you and Lan Xichen make eyes at each other over the guqin day in and day out....”
JGY “Oi, you’re not even my real wife.”
QS “Doesn’t mean I can’t nag you. Also, you have an issue, you know. You can’t just murder your way to the top.”
JGY “I wasn’t -”
QS “Save it. If you give Xue Yang enough candy, he’ll tell you anything.”
JGY “NMJ is a problem. He disrespects -”
QS “You think maybe the reason he thinks you’re a untrustworthy little shit is because you are...an untrustworthy little shit? Also he’s always violent and aggressive towards you...yeah ‘cause you’ve been playing Terrible Temper Tango on repeat for weeks.”
JGY “.....................” *well sis does have a point, maybe i should re-evaluate my strategy “Then what do you suggest I do?”
QS:  I believe Xue Yang calls it “when it doubt, fuck it out.” 
JGY: ...............................you two need to stop hanging out together. 
~
Jin Guangyao and Qin Su spend many nights in the secret chamber plotting together. Apparently the Jin crazy can both be inherited and developed. Qin Su decides her second life is rather nice, and having power is nice too, but she’d rather have some friends. 
*Jiggy and Qin Su’s Ten Step Plan to Un-Fuck the Cultivation World*
Aka Jiggy’s illegal but necessary emergency U-Turn. 
Step 1: Start playing some nice music ffs, and maybe when NMJ is in a better mood, the venerated Triad can be the venerated Triad. ;) 
Step 2: start treating MXY better. He could be useful as a loyal brother. 
Step 3:  Sic him on Nie Huaisang. They seem like they could do well together. Also, the easiest way to get through to NMJ is through his little brother.  
Step 4:  Make Jin Guangshan disappear.
Step 5: Speaking of little brothers, they’re gonna have to eventually deal with Lan Wangji. Even Qin Su’s 78 year old grandma with cataract can see he’s just a liiiiittle hung up on Wei Wuxian, who is unfortunately....dead. 
”How do you suppose we fix this particular problem?” 
”Isn’t there some cultivator prisoner found guilty punishable by death in your single minded cleansing of your political enemies?” 
"Of course. Go on I’m listening, mei-mei.” 
”So while you were off being shady, I did some research. There is a spell. I think a potential trade off could be made if we bargain right. Their soul, which was forfeit anyway, in exchange for a lifetime of protection and financial stability for their families.” 
“>:) dear sister, where have you been all my life I’ll never know.” 
Qin Sun, “Just make sure they’re not too hard on the eye. Lan Wangji doesn’t seem to be the shallow type but one never knows.” 
Step 5: Jiang Wanyin needs an emotional laxative like... last year. Look into resurrecting Jiang Yanli. Once she’s alive, all that Yunmeng Bullshit will resolve, and you will also have a Lotus Pier forever grateful for Jin Guangyao and Qin Su’s kindness. If that doesn’t work...idk get Jiang Wanyin a dog. 
“Okay, hooow are you going to get a woman to give up her soul to -”
“Can we fierce corpse her? Wei Wuxian had a bunch of undead ladies hanging around right?” 
“........worth looking into.” 
Step 6:  Jin Zixuan. Yikes -
JGY “I didn’t kill Jin Zixuan. Wei Wuxian did.” (note: CQL washed WWX of any responsibility for the deaths of others by making it so that the Song of Turmoil caused him to lose control. This, in fact, is not what is written in book canon. WWX did lose control by himself without external influence. I can cherry pick the plot points I want to keep.) 
QS “..........but you sent him to his death.” 
JGY “..........”
QS *Deep sigh* “Who can we throw under the bus this time for Jin Zixuan’s death, Jigs? Someone that won’t be missed...got it. Su She.” 
JGY “He’s loyal to me, he’s an ally -” 
QS “Listen here, once you resurrect Jiang Yanli and Wei Wuxian, you will have the eternal gratitude of Yunmeng Jiang and Gusu Lan. Who gives a shit about Su Minshan that simpering turd.” 
JGY: True. *he’s understood by now that he could get rid of those who would talk shit, belittle, and disrespect him...but he could always do more with a couple of important influential people who would spread words of his goodness. Stubborn righteous cultivators like the Jiangs, Nies and Lans.* “Also Jin Zixuan’ll be an undead, not able to inherit. We’re safe.” 
QS: “Exactly.” 
Xue Yang: eating candy......... *eye roll* 
Step 7: Because Step 6 didn’t work out, forget about Jin Zixuan. 
JGY: “you know... maybe Jin Zixuan moved on.” 
QS: “Would explain why we couldn’t call his soul back the way we called back Jiang-gu’niang.” Qin Su glances back at Jiang Yanli’s soul-infused clay body in the process of being reanimated (lifted this idea straight from Inuyasha - ahem- kikyo.) “It’s probably better this way. I don’t like the thought of sharing the control of Lanling Jin with more people.” 
JGY:  “Ah, blood of my blood you are indeed.”
Step 8:  Reveal Jin Guangshan’s evil deeds. Once they kill Dear Ol’ Dad, they can just blame EVERYTHING on him and have him be the disgrace of the entire cultivation world, and them the unfortunate children left to do his bidding and trying the best they could to salvage what they can from his trail of ruins.
Step 9: Reunite Wen Ning and Wen Qing. Lie. Blame it all on Jin Guangshan who is too dead to argue in his own defense. If Jiang Wanyin finds out about Wen Qing...well, information gets around. 
JGY “So about that Date.” 
Qin Su: “Yes I distinctively remember you promising me eligible young men of the Fierce Corpse Community.” 
JGY: >:) I’m here to make good on my words. 
Step 10: Reap the benefits of a world restored.

well this is. uncomfortable.
it feels like the manga is kinda shifting towards showing that inuyasha loved kikyo more, but will “settle” for kagome, and kagome will settle for being second-best because she loves inuyasha that much. (even with this fuckery, kagome is so selfless--more concerned that inuyasha wants to die than that he might still love kikyo more. in a way, nothing has changed there...) this demon had no reason to lie about who inuyasha loved most, so in a way, it’s concrete evidence of his feelings...which is contrary to his established characterization.
inuyasha repeatedly explained his devotion to kikyo as being, at this point, a product of guilt and obligation--both in his own thoughts, and directly to kagome. ffs, part of why he hesitated to date kagome was because he didn’t think he deserved to be happy or laugh or feel good anymore (which kagome made him feel), which by extension was why he accepted kikyo wanting to drag him to hell with her. inuyasha didn’t want to die with kikyo to be with her; he thought it was what he deserved, and that it was the least he could do for her.
i don’t blame him for running after kikyo all the time, since he was pretty blunt about how he felt and what being with him would mean for kagome, and it would be unrealistic to expect him not to care about her safety anymore just because he was dating someone else. the issue was that he didn’t tell kagome beforehand, not that he went at all, which was why kagome distrusted him (imo). however, it would be pretty fucked up if this entire time he really was still in love with kikyo and saw kagome as second-best--as in, if it wasn’t just kagome’s fears, but the truth. 
add in the fact that neither kagome nor kikyo had ever seen inuyasha cry as much as he did when kikyo (as a reanimated corpse) died for essentially the third time... yikes.

Moroha took aim carefully at the snoozing feline. She needed to take out the bakeneko in one shot preferably; the hide and teeth would fetch a good price if they were undamaged. It was strong enough to summon ghostly fireballs and had already burnt down two houses in the town nearby. She needed to kill it before it tried to reanimate any recently deceased villagers. 
The headman had laughed at her when she’d cheerfully told him she could solve their little youkai problem, for a price. She didn’t let his disbelief bother her, she was used to it by now. Humans and youkai never took her seriously as a bounty hunter; they judged her by her age and size, but they soon changed their tune when they saw the results of her work. She grinned a little as she remembered her very first job. That huge Onikuma had laughed at her too, but it had been the last joke he’d ever enjoyed. Now he made a very fine bear demon cloak.
She’s done! Took me a while to decide on colours - I actually think they’ll probably go with dark hair and Inuyasha’s amber coloured eyes, but I thought the combination of white hair and grey blue eyes was pretty. (I may be biased - I have white hair and grey blue eyes). Not entirely happy with the background, but meh. I think she turned out pretty cute!

you just posted LoK and Inuyasha crossover art??? My head went straight to Asami being the Kagome to Korra's Inuyasha! either a tender moment or just some angry banter please!
I'm not doing snippets anymore; I'm doing blurbs
Go down the right well and you can find anything. Half-demons, people who control earth, water, fire, and air, your reanimated former life’s corpse. The course of true love never did run smooth.
Put a fandom, pairing, AU, and/or character(s) in my asks and I’ll write a blurb for a fic about them/it

I'm finally getting around to watching Inuyasha: Final Act. I'm ten years late, but by then I was already in college, moved on to another fandom, and I already read the manga. Also some I was under the impression that it was bad for some reason. IDK where that came from.
I'm only on episode six, and my only real criticism is the breakneck speed of the pacing and the combining of multiple arcs together. It's really jumpy and the original anime feels like stroll in the park (okay sometimes it feels like a crawl in the bits with a lot of filler,) while the Final Act feels like fighter jet breaking the sound barrier. If had not read the manga first, I'd be so fucking lost right now. Cramming the final 20 volumes into 26 episodes when it took 167 to cover the first 36 wasn't the best idea.
Sunrise really should of given themselves at least two season, that way there's some breathing room between story arcs and beats and they can explore and expand whenever they want. You know connect some of the better filler episodes to later story arcs, like maybe they could of included Ayame into the Goraishi arc and the one with Shinta and Kai. And they could expand on arcs that were a bit more lackluster like the arc with Kaou (I that how it's spelled.) A slower pace would also help Kagura's death be more impactful, because I remember almost crying when it originally happened in the manga, and here it felt rushed like it was just a checkpoint for getting the Meidou Zangetsuha and not a huge turning point for Sesshoumaru's character and the culmination of all his character development so far.
Also Moryomaru's and Hakudoshi's death's felt were glossed over, like just a footnote. And how Tessaiga and Dakki were handled pretty meh... I know that it was like a red herring because it's not super important, and you could kind of trim that part of the manga off and it would still work because the Meidou Zangtsuha renders it pointless, but yeah. IDK the anime should of used the opportunity to do something more with it, other than give us a half-assed cliff-notes version.
Two things I do appreciate is that they finally cut back on filler stuff like unnecessary flashbacks, the recap of previous episodes or those intros where Kagome re-establishes the plot and characters for the 100th time. They just jump in straight into the OP and then story. I guess they gotta save time wherever they can. I also appreciate the fact that in the flashbacks that do occur they actually reanimated it so it doesn't looks as out of place and awkward as say The Tragic Love Song of Destiny, or any digitally animated episode with footage from traditionally drawn ones. That was a petpeeve of mine, because all it did was highlight the difference in animation between these two.

Ive literally never hated a character more than i hate Kikyo. The fact that nobody points out that even though her body is reanimated or whatever, Kikyo is DEAD. Like i dont understand the concept of Inuyasha having to "choose" between her and Kagome. I love my baby Inuyasha but are you really confused about whether or not you want someone who's tried to kill you and is also a dead bitch??? Over sweet Kagome who is ALIVE????

You lived long enough to see yourself become the villain, congratulations XD I kid, I'm pretty against love triangles myself. As a writer, what are some bad examples of love triangles you've seen in fiction that made you wanna swear em off? Korra's needless one & whatever the hell was going on with the Team 7 assholes are usually the first ones that come to my mind when I think of times I said in my head "Eugh, Christ Almighty, I gotta sit through this shit..."
When I think of ‘FUCK YOU, JUST CHOOSE ALREADY!!’ love triangles, the main ones that bring headaches back to my mind at the thought are the infamous Edward/Bella/Jacob thing from Twilight, whatever the FUCK was going on with Vampire Knight (seriously, FUCK Vampire Knight), and way that Kikyo/Kagome/Inuyasha was handled in the original run of Inuyasha.
With the first one, Twilight is so badly written at the end of the day, but even from day 1 you could tell that Meyer meant for Edward and Bella to be the final state of things and that Jacob was just there to serve as a doorstop every Edward needed to be out of the picture because... Potatoes. But it was just pushed so hard for marketing sake (’Oh, I’m Team Edward!’ ‘I’m Team Jacob’ ‘I’m Team ‘Can we just remember how many poor bookstore employees were made the wrath of middle-aged Twilight fans back in the day? From underaged female fans getting shoved and trampled by adults trying to get the books to underaged male fans getting creepily hit-on by adults since their stores would have them dress up for events?’) and for forced drama in a story that was already not handling drama well... And not handling characters well... And not handling a lot of things well... And --
Vampire Knight... Just... I... You know what? No. I can’t even begin to go into this because life is too short. The love-triangle nonsense here started off annoying, got bad, and then, when I looked back into it thanks to Anime America reminding me of it, veered into ‘what EVEN happened here?!’
As I’ve gotten older, I’ve grown beyond the ‘oh, Kikyo’s the worst! She’s a bitch! She’s in the way of my ship!’ mindset that a lot of younger anime fans have in regards to their first ships and characters that gum up the works. 
However, on the same token, I can talk about how... Not great the dynamic between the trio from Inuyasha was handled. Cue VivaReverie’s ‘X but Really Fast’ style!
Inuyasha- ‘I’m an angry half-breed demon who’s been tormented all his life for being a half-breed so I’m gonna steal this jewel so I can become a full-breed demon! 
Kikyo - I’m the priestess that guards said jewel in question and I can’t let you have it.
Inuyasha - Fuck! But! Also! You’re kind of attractive and I admire your strength so I’m kind of into you!
Kikyo - No.
Inuyasa - Yes!
Kikyo - No.
Inuyasha - Yes!
Kikyo - No.
Inuyasha - Yes!
Kikyo - ... Okay, fine, yes.
Inuyasha - Sweet! So we’re cool now, right? 
Kikyo - Yes. ... Well, actually, no. I saw a demon that looks like you trying to steal the jewel and who also mortally wounded me so I’m going to shoot you with an arrow and bind you to this tree. 
Inuyasha - Wait, I did what now -- Ow, arrow to the heart!
Kikyo - And now, since I’m dying, I will saddle my little sister with the responsibility of burning my body with the jewel inside of it so no one else can have it. 
Kaede - Wait, why can’t we just use the jewel to heal your wounds -- Aaaand you’re dead. Well, light the funeral pyre I guess. This can’t possibly bite us in the ass in the future.
Kagome - I’m a school girl in the modern-era who is the reincarnation of the priestess somehow -- oops, fell in a well! Oops, attacked by a demon! Oops, released the half-breed demon! Oops, shattered the jewel into a thousand pieces scattered across the land! Hope this doesn’t become the McGuffin quest of the entire anime!
Kaede - Finding the jewel shards will be your McGuffin quest for the entire anime. 
Kagome and Inuyasha - Fuck!
Kaede - Also, take this necklace that is basically a BDSM collar for Inuyasha to obey your orders. 
Kagome - Sweet!
Inuyasha - Fuck!
Kikyo - Hey, I’m resurrected somehow.
Kagome - Wait, if you’re resurrected, shouldn’t I have been erased from history -- Also, Inuyasha, where are you going?
Inuyasha - To be with the actual woman I love, even though she shot me and bound me to a tree for a thousand years, and her sudden appearance is all kinds of suspicious!
Kikyo - Hey, by the way, I’m totally evil now and I’m going to use my sort-of/kind-of reincarnation to shoot you with another arrow. 
Kagome and Inuyasha - Damn, if this was only completely avoidable. By, like, you know, being cautious around obviously suspicious reanimated corpses or something...
Disclaimer - I actually do like Inuyasha, I swear.
