abuseAmazing work! :D
Usually I don't read fics where Rin is a warrior because they usually twist sweet Rin into something unbelievable. But this fic... I was caught from the first... Everything was written with such talent and important details weren't skipped over. You turned Rin into a complex character and gave her motivation. The dark angst was so frustrating--I kept wanting Sess to burst in & save poor Rin T_T But the sweet chapters afterwards of Sess trying to win Rin over were well worth it :D
Woo for writing something so amazing!

abuseReturning to write a review for one of the best fanfic's I've read in ages.

It's so hard to find a decent fanfic after you've been on here for ages and you're under the impression that you've read all that need to be read of value on this site. And then, you find little (or not so little) stories like yours that give me hope that there actually still ARE good fanfics out there. This is just absolutely wonderful.

This idea is just so completely original. I had never even considered the thought that Sesshoumaru would use Rin as his deadliest weapon--usually, I don't think she takes that kind of role in many of the other fanfics. Yet you make it believable and normal at the same time. I also love the fact that you essentially just kept it between Rin and Sesshoumaru. You felt no need to drag in any of the more main characters--such as Kagome, Inuyasha, Miroku, or Sango (although there were a few references)-- to ruin the simplicity of such a relationship.

I find it quite odd that just recently I've found Adult Swin replaying some Inuyasha episodes, so I felt the need to refresh myself since I hadn't watched one in ages, and the ones that they played were actually the ones involving the Underworld and Housenki. So it was pretty awesome that you had all the references to the anime and I actually knew what you were talking about. :D

I don't really know what else to say. Usually, I'd have a lot more, but I read it last night, and I can't remember what I was thinking except "most effin amazing fanfic ever." Truly mind-blowingly wicked.

abuseGah this is so wonderful.

This is only just a reminder to myself to finish reading this when I have more time. And to do a proper review, since this is just a lame-o one. ;)

abuseThe pearl, was a beautiful piece to read and I thank you for writing such a wonder piece of art. This was a great history for a Sessh/Rin piece. I'll definately stop by to read more of your past works.

abuseHahahaha, he's such a spaz like here, a little cut from YOUR story chapter 10

Rin held a lone piece of beef before her lips, readying her mouth to open and take the food in. She could choke on that meat right now, and die, the dog demon realized angrily. He wanted to protect her—he’d sworn he would when she was in Hell. But he couldn’t very well tell her to never eat again.

Hahaha, like srsly, ordering teh poor girl never to eat again.

abuseStill the best Rin/Sessy story I´ve EVER read.

Not to mention a fantastic piece of art. I´m not even kiddin'!


Perfectly in character, emotionally charged with a perfect flow.

I can only advice you to keep on writing. Maybe another Rin/Sess story?

One that shows what they´ve been up to after they made another pearl.



Have a good day.

abuseLoved the story far too much to be normal. The characters of Rin and Sesshoumaru were well made. I've always been curious of how authors choose to portray Rin, especially 'old' Rin, seeing as how there is not that much information on her. I must say, you created a character that seemed so natural as Rin, that I'm surprised that you haven't been flooded with reviews. This also had perhaps the most original ideas I've seen up to date. The central idea for 'The Pearl' was refreshingly new. I actually read this story a couple of years ago, but was too lazy to review (b/c of dial-up internet 26kps?! It wasn't possible for me to upload reviews). Still, having reread it, I have to say that it's lost none of its appeal the second time around.

The Pearl, with an illuminating narrative, captivating characters, and vivid imagery, manages to capture and hold the reader's attention for many, many hours. If this had been written in the Sengoku Jidai, readers would have been out of money, spending it all on candles.

Read it!

abuseThis is a very enjoyable story. The intensity and emotional lines are just spectacular. The descriptive and useful words just bring emotion to the story. The ending is magnificent. You pulled of very nicely in the end. The Pearl shows 2 people with love beyond anything. I have to give you credit. The Pearl is probably one of the top stories in the Inuyasha Fanfiction range. You managed to keep my attention for a long time and not leave me bored at any rate. The way you made sure the readers were on track is just splendid. You truly are a fantastic writer. Thank you for the enjoyment I was feeling when reading your story. In the last line of Chapter 13, you said you've done the best you could. I believe that, and if this story is your best, I'm sure you will be a world wide known author to man. I'm sure Takahashi would be very proud. So once again, thank you for writing such a breath taking story.

abuseThis story was so great. And man, it was really creative too. One thing I liked was the humor too. I mean, a bird-eating tree, my reaction would be: "Thanks but... uhuh" But also this story was very deep emotionally as well. I actually cried, which is something I rarely do. Overall, thank you for such a great story.
:D
