Love this fic soooooo much

I hope you do come back to this someday. I found this story in the middle of chaos and it brought me such peace and happiness. Thank you for your time and creative prowess.

I hope you are doing well... I had never wanted to start this story because I noticed it was unfinished but quarantine has brought me back here. Thank you for providing such a well developed story with authentic feelings and plot that I can escape to. I know it's been years but I truly do hope you will return one day to finish this masterpiece. Thank you.

Hey, don’t know what’s going on with you but hope you’re doing well. Just reviewing to let you know this story still has a special place in my, and I’m sure many other reviewers hearts.

I'm currently at chapter 27, and I don't even know if I can successfully put into words how amazing this story is. The plot is so exhilarating that I can't help wanting speed-read just to find out what comes next but I always restrain myself because it's written so beautifully that I have to savour every word.

This fic is the definition of bittersweet angst. It’s the darkest timeline. And it’s so, so good.
In my opinion, out of all of Takahashi’s work the Inuyasha story has such potential for evil and foul play, and this fic captures that and explores it to the extreme. The scariest part is that it’s all too believable. These characters and scenarios make sense in this world we love. Kagome’s growth (or de-growth some could argue) is painful but rewarding, but I never stop feeling this deep sense of foreboding. Just when you think you’re safe, you’re drowning again. I love happy endings, but in my mind this story can’t have one.
Thank you for writing and for sharing 3

Kagome is such an emotional bitch. Shippou and Rin are both whiney asf. Everyone else ate such assholes. It’s developing way too slow, and everything Kagome says seems to contradict itself.️ Tired of this

REALLY? you have to leave it one fackin chapter before the ending? jesus woman, youre killing me!

I love this story so much and i hope you come back and finish it one day! I'm such a huge Inu/Kag fan and reading this fic has had my heart fluttering nearly the whole time! This is such and amazing and heart wrenching story that i'm just craving for more and more of it! Thank you so much for all 38 chapters that you put up so far and again i really do hope that you come back to finish it in the near future!

This weekend, on a whim, I decided to start weeding through all of my favorite fics on . I don't spend a ton of time on this site anymore and haven't been actively in Inuyasha fandom for probably 10 years, but I like to visit! I had over 300 faves and my tastes have changed since I made this account probably 13 years ago. As I went through my faves, I was pretty ruthless. The utterly unmemorable got deleted, the recognized old loves got a respectful nod, and a handful got opened to reread and see if they're as I remembered them. This was one of them. This story is so powerful. I was in that sweet spot of memory where your writing style and the set up of this story immediately brought me back into the world, while I had forgotten the perfect amount of plot to make reading again almost a new experience. It was interesting reading such a difficult storyline with the maturity an extra ten years gives a person, and despite the harshness required by the characters that faced these kinds of terrors you carried the story off with grace and forgiveness. However, it was as I neared the end of the 38 chapters that I started to realize...'huh. It was updated in 2014? I'm sure I haven't read this since well before then. Is there a new epilogue? An added author's note?' And I crept closer, slowly realizing 'oh no. I never noticed this isn't marked complete. Well, lots of stories are complete that aren't marked so, since FFN only created that feature after I'd been on the site for years. I haven't read this story in so long, I can't remember if it wasn't finished when I originally saved it to my favorites!' And now here I am, at the end of what you posted six years ago. Though it's been a long time since you've come back to this story, I want to say thank you for the incredible amount of heart and hard work you put into this story over nine years. I won't ever give up hope that you might come back and gift us with the last 1 or 2 long chapters, as you mention at the beginning of this chapter. But even if you never do, getting to the end of what's here and realizing I got to read something new beyond my first experience with this story so long ago was so amazing! I have no idea how this story was going to end, but coming this far with it was still a delight, and the moment in time where you left us is so bittersweet. I hope you're well and thank you again.

I wanted to make sure I typed this out properly because there's so much I want to express and while I completely understand the story may never get an end, it has been such a big part of my life that it would be doing a disservice to not comment my thoughts.

I read this initially when I was young, so young your latest chapter (38) hadn't been published yet. And I am now 25, and I searched for your fanfiction remembering how much I had fallen in love with it the first time. I searched high and low because I can't remember my old logins, but I somehow found it! And it has absorbed me the last two days, I couldn't put it down. You wrote a novel about my two favorite characters and gave them depth the original story never quite managed.

I needed to leave this comment (and I never leave comments) because of how much your story has moved me and how much I long for an ending. It's ok if you never end it, it's probably a long dead story, but please know how much I love your work. I need you to know I love this story. I hope that you know the ending in your heart, because I'd like to believe that the characters I hold dearly as relics of my own childhood got the ending they deserve. :)

I have been reading this ever since I was a middle school. The end is c

This has been such an amazing twisty-turny, heart-wrenching story. I want to know their endings. Not just Inuyasha's but Kohaku's, Shippou's, Rin's. It's been so long I'm sure it won't be finished but thank you for this story.

Please finish soon

I'm a sucker... After I read the first few chapters, I checked the reviews, like I often do - so I could see what peoples reactions were like at the end for the story. It was VERY apparent by those reviews that this story had been left on 'HOLD', unfinished. I went back and forth for a while on whether or not I'd continue. I wanted to keep reading because I was very intrigued by what I had read thus far, but since this hadn't been updated in some 5 years, why would I start something that would likely never be resolved?

Well, clearly by me reviewing Chapter 38, I ended up continuing reading. And gosh darn-it! This has been so good and it has been so wrapped up in twists and turns and a GENUINE PLOT (omg, those are far and few between on this site) that just want to know what happens! And worse off, the plot is still such a big mystery that I cannot fathom how you'd tie all the loose strings together! I'm such a sucker! I knew going into this that I would be left wanting more, and not in a good way...But, I don't regret the hours I've spent swimming in this story. It's been truly a unique experience that is wonderfully written, and although it's not a particularly 'feel-good' story, it's been very enjoyable.

I can cross my fingers, that mayyyyybe you'll pop the final chapter up sometime. As you said at the beginning of this chapter, you've been cultivating this novel for over 9 years at that point, so I have to imagine it would bring some measure of satisfaction if it was resolved... But if not, thank you for putting out what is published currently.

For anyone doing what I did, popping into the reviews - I encourage you to continue reading if the first few chapters have caught your attention. Even unfinished, it's worth a read.
