abuseAw...Could it get more sappy and sentimental? I don't think so. Ok, yeah, it definitely could-including the pain and mood swings and his obvious lack of excitement when he first heard her water had broken-yes well that was quite amusing, and quite the reality check to keep the rest in balance. Not that I'm saying that having a child isn't a wonderful and magical experience-I'm sure it is, how else could my mother not hate me for putting her through a 25 hr long labor? Just that it was nice to keep things...in perspective, ne? Nice job with it, this was a very enjoyable story.

abuseVery nice, sweet, meaningful chapter. I really enjoyed this, and weirdly enough, I enjoyed it more because he wasn't proposing-because that would have been cheesy and out of place and just plain weird and off and does any of this make sense? It doesn't fit with the situation that he would propose so soon, is what I'm trying to say I guess. But it was perfectly natural for Kagome to assume he would of course. And it did work out in the end, anyway didn't it? I liked the originality, and the romanticism and love mixed in, for all that it didn't turn out the 'perfect ending'.

abuseHm...the pessimist in me is sure that the reporter is a conniving sinister manipulative worm and that he'll twist everything they say and make an even worse article from it. Or that another paper or magazine will write a similar thing, going off of the original reporting of the first paper, even while that paper corrects itself, the next one exaggerating things even further.
The rational part of me thinks that the pessimist is being stupid and that as there's only one chapter left and an epilogue, it's highly unlikely that the problem will continue in such a fashion.
Nice job getting me to care so much in the first place though...It may not be a drama or soap opera, but I've gotten very much into this story.

abuseHm I think I know why she laughed: one, it was such a typical thing for him to say, as if nothing had happened, and so it made her feel more secure, happy that at the very least the ridiculous article hadn't affected him, reassuring the fearful irrational part of her what a pack of trollop it really was. Two, he, like many guys, made the food more important than the opinions of the general public on his love-life. Thanks for giving me the fun of analyzing all that, I just couldn't resist.

abuseAw...Love how Kagome just stepped in and forced them to come to terms with reality like that. It took a lot of guts, and somehow I think it was really worth it-and who else would say such things to them? Nice job with it, and his continuing idiocy and their reconciliation. It's not easy, but it's getting better, slowly, one step at a time, first from wheelchair to crutches, now to the cane, and then finally walking again. It just hit me how you could compare the state of their relationship to his injury...Nice parallel, don't know if it was intended, but I like it all the same.

abuseHeavy issues here...It could have gone a lot worse, and I'm grateful that you left out a lot of the pain that could have been there. You left enough in to keep it real-this is a divorce after all, they're not supposed to be jumping for joy, even if it is mutual, and they did fall in love with other people-but also didn't put in any more than you had to. To stick in too much more would clash with the light tone of this story in general, and probably come out overdone because of that. So yeah, nice handling of the suffering gauge.

abuseGood job with her apprehensions at the beginning. They're ridiculous and silly and as far from the truth as possible-exactly as they should be. Love has a way of flushing all logic and self-confidence from the system, leaving us gibbering emotional hypersensitive versions of our previous selves if things don't go perfectly (or rather, don't go in a way that is perceived as perfect or proper). Amazing how happy it can make you when you do get it though...

abuseMuhahaha another prediction proved correct...Although it really has a lot more to do with your writing than my skills at perception, but hey, let me have my bone for once in a while, even if I didn't actually dig it up myself. Wow, that was a weird analogy...But I'll consider using it in application to Inuyasha if I ever get the chance. Nice bit of couple's psychology/issues thrown in here, some very real issues are being discussed and you handled it well.

abuseYet again, I'm suspicious of this resolution as well. Things seem to solve themselves so well, but in reality they're all just little baby steps on the way to a real resolution, a real happily ever after. I'm glad you're being patient with it, and I like how you handled the older Souta. Trust him to have a girlfriend but still be grossed out by walking in on Kagome and Inuyasha kissing...Some things just don't change, do they?

abuseSomehow I can't seem to believe that this simplicity and resolve is going to last very long...Maybe it's just the fact that there's about ten more chapters to go, or the fact that I feel like not all of the issues have been addressed, or maybe I'm just being my typical pessimistic self, but either of those ways...This is far from over. Nice job making it seem ok, but still leaving that little undercurrent of suspicion, the faintest aftertaste to belie the happiness of the end of this chapter...

abuseHm amazing how her mood can go from depressed, confused, and suffering from supposedly unrequited love, then be jovial and friendly, then somewhat confused but still good enough to tease, and then bliss...I feel like my hearts in hyperdrive, I don't know how many more emotions I can take right now...Nice job with them anyway, they are appropriate, don't get me wrong.

abuseNice scene with the Goshinboku. It was very sincere, her words and emotions came through clear and strong and gave me a real sense of her conundrum, her confusion and pain and love and fear. I also liked the inexplicable way the tree comforted her-sometimes just getting things out in the open is all you need, even if the only one you talked to was a tree. If only Inuyasha could have heard that...
