Resolution
A little courting misunderstanding for January's mini DDN!
Read on Ao3, Dokuga, and FFnet.
Summary: Sesshoumaru leaned back in his chair, muscles clenching at how she’d left him floundering when soft lips had brushed against the underside of his jaw. She’d simply wished to thank him, saying as much beforehand, but to youkai, inuyoukai especially, it was a blatant invitation for more.
Sneak Peek
She'd been at the shiro for over a year, helping the younglings as peace settled over Japan. With Naraku gone, people felt safer with creating families, no longer fearing for their lives, and Sesshoumaru soon found his home overrun with flocks of children.
And with peace treaties in the works, the lines between youkai and humans continued to blur, leading to a torrent of mixed offspring whose sole purpose was to make friends, regardless of their lineage.
The miko had fit right in.
She'd only meant to stay a few weeks, a month at most, just to replenish her supplies and share her knowledge of human politics. He'd been at a loss when it came to providing tradable goods for human villages, and she'd been more than willing to help.
But the weeks had stretched into months, offers of training together quickly taking up their mornings, and before he knew it, she'd started to call the shiro home.
And the more time he spent with her, the more he wanted it to be true.

Courting
Feudal or modern times, the path of courting can be filled with mishaps.
Breakthrough by @sereia1313
Mature | Feudal Era Canon | Ongoing Summary: She'd never been one to keep secrets, wearing her heart on her sleeve for all to see, and though she'd changed since her return through the well, no one knew why she spent all her time in the feudal era--or the darkness that lay on the other side.
Dragon Scales and Distress by @rainandyarn
Mature | Fairy Tale AU | Ongoing Summary: She didn't want the perfect white knight, the dashing prince charming. She wanted battle scars and dented armor. An impeccable moral code. A true warrior.
And maybe, just maybe, he's finally found her.
Friends with the Monster by Chiaztolite
Explicit | Feudal Era Canon | Complete Summary: Sesshōmaru suddenly finds himself coveting the position as Kagome’s friend—and maybe more.
Frivolous Sentimentalities by Tally Mark (FFnet)
Teen | Feudal Era Canon | Complete Summary: If men are from Mars and women are from Venus, what galaxy are youkai from? Because Kagome would really like to know. SessKag oneshot.
The Great Dog Demon's Miko by @valentinehearts14
Explicit | Feudal Era Canon | Ongoing Summary: Approaching the age of twenty, Kagome has matured both in body and mind as she has worked hard to improve her skills since the disappearance of Naraku after their last confrontation at Mount Hakurei. In the two years since then, Kagome has caught the eye of the Great Dog Demon.
Letters Through Time by @cat-zchen/Catzchen
Explicit | Feudal/Modern Era Canon | Complete Summary: It was a silly notion; writing letters to say goodbye to the past. Little did Kagome know that she was going to receive an answer from the most unlikely of persons.
Merely a Formality by @sagemcmae/SageMcMae
Teen | Feudal Era Canon | Complete Summary: While working at Jinenji’s farm, Kagome comes across an unresponsive Sesshomaru. She’s always been the type to help first and ask questions later. How was Kagome supposed to know that by caring for Sesshomaru she was essentially staking her claim on him as her mate?
Midnight Meets Moonlight by Mujitsu (Dokuga)
Mature | Feudal/Modern Era Canon | Complete Summary: Kagome meets a present day Sesshoumaru, only to go back to the Sengoku Jidai and meet the formidable TaiYoukai there. Unexpected encounters spark curiosity in them both as they are drawn towards one another.
Polarity by Madison (Ao3)
Teen | Feudal/Modern Era Canon | Complete Summary: A drabble set telling the tales of the blooming relationship between the Dayoukai from the Feudal Era, and the Miko from the Future. 
Resolution by @sereia1313/Sereia13
Mature | Feudal Era Canon | Complete Summary: Sesshoumaru leaned back in his chair, muscles clenching at how she’d left him floundering when soft lips had brushed against the underside of his jaw. She’d simply wished to thank him, saying as much beforehand, but to youkai, inuyoukai especially, it was a blatant invitation for more.
Swimming in Silk by @mythicamagic/Mythicamagic
Explicit | Feudal/Modern Era Canon | Complete Summary: Training in front of her, engaging her in conversation and now lending her his clothes... Kagome is starting to suspect that Sesshoumaru is trying to gain her attention. What follows is nothing she could have ever expected, with Time forcing difficult choices between the two.
Switched by @sagemcmae/SageMcMae
Mature | Feudal Era AU | Ongoing Summary: Kagome doesn’t know how she ended up here, why people keep calling her Kikyo, or who Lord Sesshomaru is but she certainly didn’t agree to marry him.
An Unconventional Courting by Millarca (Ao3)
Mature | Feudal Era Canon | Complete Summary: Sesshoumaru appears and makes a courting proposal. Kagome will have many hardships trying to figure out what exactly prompted him to make this outrageous offer and come up with ways to avoid it.

Happy #F#ck it Friday! Where I post whatever TF I want and the points don't matter!
Today we've got an Inuparents snippet from the upcoming chapter of Stealing Home, the Halloween Inuspiration piece with @wolfcry77. I am putting it below a cut since there are spoilers for the chapter. Have a good weekend everyone!
“T-Touga?” He couldn’t turn his head at first. The hesitation in her voice, the slight wavering in its strength, froze him. “Touga, is that…” A stifled sob jerked his head in her direction and he swallowed thickly. “Iz…” She was across the yard and into his chest, his arms instinctively wrapping around her shoulders as she collided with him. Touga felt his ribs contracting around his lungs, breathing difficult as he held his sobbing lover in his arms. He swallowed again, panicking as the feeling overwhelmed him and he too felt a dry sob in his throat. The inuyoukai buried his nose in her hair, clawed fingers finding her nape and cradling the back of her head as he fought to contain the emotion boiling out of him. “Touga. Touga. I never thought I would… but you’re here! They found you.” “Yes. Yes, I’m here, My Love. I’m here. I’m so sorry.” He winced as her fingers dug into his back as she gripped his shirt in her hands. “You’re not hurt, are you?” he asked, needing the reassurance, not trusting his nose. “No, of course not. But Kagome… Inuyasha…” Her grip slackened and she turned her head slightly. Touga hated that her worry drew her attention away from him, even for a moment, no matter how important the cause. He took her face in his hands and drew her eyes to his, finally looking directly into the gray gaze of his love after too many years. She gasped at the intensity of his eyes, the directness with which he stared into her. His kiss was just as intense, his mouth taking hers as if to consume her. To relearn all that she was. She whimpered faintly, her grip on his shoulders tightening as she tried to keep her balance. He couldn’t let go of her, not yet, the feel of her lips against his too deliciously familiar. The grief of missing her hit him all the harder, a physical sensation of knowing it had been far too long since he had felt this. Touga let out a soft whimper of his own. “Ma, where is… Oh…” The pair broke apart, still clinging to each others’ hands to anchor themselves. “Inuyasha…” Izayoi flushed at their son’s scowl. “I’ll be right there,” she promised. Golden eyes, so like his own, pinned Touga with a hard look. There was no mistaking the message there. Hurt her and you die. Touga smirked after Inuyasha disappeared inside. “He is definitely your son, through and through.” A chuckle escaped him at Izayoi putting his exact thoughts into words.

HELLO I HAVE A PROMPT REQUEST 😬
Inukag, putting their arms around each other’s waists
Thankyouandgoodnight
Hey @mrfeenysmustache ! Thanks for your patience as I thought about how to do this one -- for some reason every time I opened this one I drew a total blank until, of all things, I was watching an episode of MASH where an visiting physician teaches (or trys to anyway) Hawkeye a traditional Swedish dance. Thank you Inga for the inspiration!
"Ouch!"
"Would you stop that?"
"Then stop stepping on me!"
"I didn't you just have giant feet that keep getting in my way!"
"I'm five-foot-two there is now way my feet are the problem."
"Five-foot-two is right; five feet on one side two on the other. HEY! There's no need to hit me you're doing enough damage already."
Kagome dropped her hands from Inuyasha's shoulders and growled in a tone that made the hairs on the back of Inuyasha's neck stand out. He would never tell her to her face, but Kagome's angry growl sounded exactly like an angry inuyoukai.
"This is stupid - I don't know why we're making ourselves miserable over such a dumb tradition." She stomped through the large empty space that was their living room, the furniture all pushed back against the wall and stacked haphazardly to give them as much clear floor space as possible to practice their wedding waltz. Kagome had been adamant from the day he proposed that she wanted a big, classic white wedding. She wanted the ballgown dress, she wanted the 12 person wedding party, she wanted a five tier cake - and she wanted a black tie reception complete with formal waltz as their first dance.
So far everything had gone surprisingly smoothly. They found a venue and a dress and bridesmaids (and a few borrowed male friends to balance out the numbers on both sides of the aisle). The cake was delicious and covered in several thousands calories worth of icing. But the course of true love never did run smooth.
Or dance, as the case may be.
Inuyasha flexed his toes inside his horrible leather dress shoes and sighed deeply. He walked across to his bride-to-be and placed a hand on her shoulder. "We don't have to do this, if this isn't any fun for you anymore then we can do something else."
Kagome stood up and thumped her head against his sternum, letting it rest there as she mumbled into his shirt. "I didn't think this would be so hard. We've been doing to much practicing and I just...suck at this."
Inuyasha looped his arms around her waist, and smiled into the crown of her head as she returned the embrace. He gently swayed side to side along with the music still playing and Kagome giggled for the first time in two hours and she fell into the rhythm with him. As long as neither of them actually had to life their feet and they could shuffle slowly about, they were having no trouble. But as soon as Kagome moved to take a full side step it was over.
She lost her balance and instinctively tightened her hold around Inuyasha's waist. He, unfortunately, lunged to grab at her with one hand still at her hip, effectively pushing her backwards instead of helping her. In a tangle of limbs they crashed to the carpet.
Instead of shouting or getting mad, Inuyasha started to laugh, howling at the tangled mess they'd become. As Kagome pouted and slowly worked to detach her engagement ring from Inuyasha's hair she made the executive decision that they would not be waltzing, but maybe do something safer-- like trapeze.

Hello! 🎢 Which of your fics would you call your wildest ride? and ❌ What's a trope you will never write? for the emoji ask game, plase and thank you! 🥰💓
Hi anisaanisa! Thank you so much for the asks! In answer to your questions: 🎢 The wildest ride has to be one I haven't yet published but still hope to one day called Beneath the Eternal Blue Sky. It's a post-canon piece where Inuyasha and Kagome's relationship has failed, and Kagome has since struggled with losing herself and her confidence in her ability to make choices since she gave up everyone she loved and everything she knew for a relationship that was ultimately doomed to fail. Sesshoumaru sees her struggle, and due to reasons that occur in the beginning part of the story, he is dedicated to helping her. As a thank you for something she does, he offers to let her travel with him as he leaves for about a year's time to go and visit extended family, recognizing that she needs time away from the village. Kagome eventually agrees, and the story is basically about how all the experiences of their travels together work to bring her back to herself and them unexpectedly together. This one is a beast of a story to plan with a lot of world, lore, and language building along with original characters that comprise Sesshoumaru's family. I have the story outline complete and the scenes of about five chapters' scenes currently outlined. But I truly to enjoy working on this one and keep plugging away at it. It's been a ton of research, which makes it go slower in the planning process, but it will hopefully pay off in the end. I think why I enjoy and am looking forward to it the most is because it's been an opportunity to explore and create an in depth inuyoukai culture, and that's just been a lot of fun. ❌ What trope will I never write? Acknowledging that tropes are very much a "to each their own" type thing, I will probably steer clear of the ABO trope. 1) I have big feelings about how dominance is represented in relationships and easily find it off-putting. That's just a personal me thing. 2) I haven't particularly enjoyed what I've come across in the romance genre in this trope. Most of what I've personally experienced in ABO teeters on the edge of toxic and/ or abusive relationships - if not being that outright - with a lot of dubcon or noncon that isn't really acknowledged as such but instead is portrayed as "romantic." I personally don't have any issue reading dubcon/ noncon when it's acknowledged for what it is. But I've known too many women who have been hurt by these kinds of relationships when abusive tactics are misconstrued as romance, and it's just left a bad taste in my mouth when those lines are not clearly drawn. I'm sure there's some well-done stuff out there, and I wouldn't be against giving it a read if there was something that was clearly not abuse or dubcon (open to recs!). But as of right now, with my experiences, I don't think I'm the person to do it justice. Thank you again for the asks! <3 <3 <3

🎯 🤲 🤯
Why hello @clearwillow
🎯 Have any of your readers accurately guessed major plot points? Care to share which?
So far only one person has speculated something true about one of my fics and that fic actually is going to be rewritten because I broke my number 1 rule and wrote what I thought people would want instead of what made sense was plotted in my head--and I wrote myself into a box with noooooowhere to go and can't get to my plot points with how I did it.
This is Cinderella for anyone curious. It's the main reason it hasn't been updated. Forgive me @witchygirl99
But the plot point will still be accurate, the only thing changing is ages and some back story as well as inclusion of characters this far in so that I can make it work and go where it needs to go, instead of where I more or less cock blocked myself into going.
🤲 Would you please share a snippet of a wip?
Oh sureeeeee! This one isn't posted yet but I'm super excited about it! This is actually based on Raya from Inuyasha's pov:
“Whoa Entei,” I said, calming my flaming horse so he would slow as I hoped off, brushing his face gently in praise as I bent down to sift through some of the barren wasteland at our feet for what I thought I smelled of berries. 
Bet you’re wondering how the world ended, huh?
But you’re wondering exactly what it was–plague, famim, war, technology??
Nah. 
None of that.
Trust. 
That’s right.
Trust was what killed the world.
Bet you’re now thinking, ‘well what the fuck does that mean?’
Lemme take you back a decade ago when it all began–
Scratch that. Let’s go back further–five-centuries ago. 
Long before I was born or even thought of, there were miko, youkai, humans, and even hanyou that lived peacefully together… but then the spider youkai came and began to destroy everything. The miko fought and the legendary priestess named Kagome defeated them–but at the cost of all miko. Her body was never found, but as it’d been a long time, all assumed she died or had died the day she purified all the spiders that moment. 
In her final act, she had created the Shikon no Tama, and that gem lived in the palace of my people–the inuyoukai.
🤯 What's a genre you struggle with as a writer (ex. romance, action, etc.)?
Uhmmmm honestly action and angst. Fluff is literally in bread and butter and just pours out of me. Everything else? #strugglebus
Thanks for the Fanfic Writer Emoji asks!!

Chapter 50 (AO3 Repost) is Up!
Tumblr media
~An IY Fanfiction, From Ch. 50~  
Cool spring night air, crescent moon over head.  
Blood on my hands and caught under my nails again, the former Lord of the West mused.   
Instinctively, the former inuyoukai bared his teeth.  
Channeling the predator he was born to be, Sesshomaru sprang without abandon upon the approaching monster.  Read on:  Dying to Live on AO3. - Rated M
Story Summary:  The tables are turned in this alternate ending fic: At last, after 6 years Naraku is defeated, Inuyasha finally gets his wish, and Sesshomaru finds himself literally on the precipice between death and a whole new life. “Have you someone to protect?” someone once asked him… Sometimes it takes a brush with death to understand why we fight to live. Family, Romance, Drama, Relationships, Transformations. Rin x Sesshomaru and the whole cast.

Feral Sesshoumaru
I have this idea where, when Sesshoumaru and Kagome are mated, their powers sort of merge, and in situations like this he has “access” to her strength too!

Blinded By Fate
@moon-ion and I finally did it. A multi-chapter collab fic!
Summary: Every culture has a different version: mirrored souls, the red string of fate, bonded hearts. It's supposed to lead to happiness, but as Kagome quickly finds out, there is a severe lack of choice in the matter.But as she's soon to learn, fate will not and cannot be denied.
Read it on Ao3.
Sneak Peek
"You're the god?" she asked, her voice gentle as she looked up at him.
He snorted, the warm air mussing her hair as he looked her over. She smelled of citrus and honey, but unlike the rest of the villagers, her scent was free of fear.
"Do I look like a god?" he returned evenly, hiding his amusement for the moment. "I am an inuyoukai, human—no," he paused, scenting her more clearly, "—miko."
She looked him over, swearing she'd heard his voice clear as day even though his enormous muzzle hadn't moved. "With the way everyone was talking about you, I expected you to be scarier."
He guffawed, his body shaking with laughter as he bent his head to stare into her eyes. "Yet you do not fear me."
She looked genuinely confused. "Should I?"
He rumbled as he nudged her with his nose. "Should you?" he countered.
"There is the whole 'you could bite my arm off aspect,' I suppose." She slid a hand up the bridge of his nose, idly stroking his fur. "But you look more like a pet than a threat." Her eyes widened, and she tore his hand away. "I'm sorry, that was rude. You're a god, and I should be—"
"I am not a god," he reminded her, a slight bite to his words. "Nor am I a common mortal pet. You would do well to remember this, miko."
She pursed her lips, grumbling, "I said you looked like a pet, not that you were one." She motioned to the centre of the village. "Your throne is over there."
He lifted his chin, glowering down at her. "It is not mine, but perhaps I might be convinced to partake of another offering."
Squaring her shoulders, she raised her chin in mimicry. "Our village has already given you all our offerings. And if you weren't going to partake, why did you bother coming here?"
"Have they now?" he rumbled, eying her intently. "What if it is you that I request?"

A day late, but I promised @arisukingdom that I would do a Father's Day drabble. Some Your Lying Smile Universe Inuparents fluff.
He had forgotten how tiny they started out. Small, squishy, and smelling of their mother. He hadn't gotten the chance to hold Sesshoumaru when he was this small. His mother was sternly traditional about those sorts of things. Izayoi, on the other hand, demanded he be by her side through the entire labor and it allowed him the astounding experience of being the first person to hold his newborn son. The midwife instructed him on how to catch the babe and how to gently clean him up before surveying him for a long moment. Clean and dry, he was rosy from being wiped down and the persistent angry cries. It was clear he wanted the comfort, dark, and warmth he had left. Touga couldn’t begrudge him squalling and wanting his mother. Within moments of resting him on Izayoi's chest, he quieted and made squeaky sounds of relief. “Touga, he is… perfect,” Izayoi sobbed, tracing her fingers through the slightly sticky curls on his head and over the floppy puppy ears that adorned him. The Inu no Taisho could not agree more. Hours later, laying beside Izayoi as she nursed their son, Touga took more time to study him. His hair, cleaner and now dry, was definitely silver. His nose was slightly turned up, tiny rounded claws tipped his little fingers and toes, and he grunted and whimpered like any inuyoukai pup would. He was most definitely a son of the Inu no Taisho. But the babe was also very much Izayoi's son. The shape of his eyes, his chin, the shade of his skin, those were his wife. A hanyou. The melding of a human and an inuyoukai. His son. Touga smothered his concerned face when Izayoi finally took her eyes away from the pup to look at him. Too late. Her brows dropped in worry. "No, Little Rabbit. Everything is fine." He let out a softly shuddering breath. "Our Inuyasha will grow up strong and cared for," he whispered to her, sidling closer so he could press his forehead to hers while the baby fell asleep between them. "He will know he is loved." He gripped her shoulder to emphasize his words. It was Touga's pledge to his mate. What's more, it was his solemn pledge to his hanyou son. He knew that the outside world would not understand. He would be different. But within the walls of the keep they called home, he would always know peace and safety. Inuyasha would be loved.
