I've received a lot of wonderful reviews, both here and elsewhere (and I thank each and every one of you 'cheerleaders' leik woah!!), but this is probably the one that's seriously touched me the most, which was left for my very first full-length Sess/Kag piece, Four Seasons.

hasu86 (Chapter 4) - Mon 22 Sep 2008
Wow. You've managed to leave me quite speechless which is a feat in itself. An absolutely heart wrenching, deep, emotional, beautiful, and hopeful piece. I loved every second of it and you completely and utterly captured me, plucked at my heartstrings, made me cry (which is ridiculously hard to do!) and made me smile. I guess it's because I can really relate to a lot of the things in this story of yours...a brilliantly executed piece of writing and your characterizations, the way you utilized the seasons were excellent. Thank you for sharing. Goodness, you've inspired me to write now! =)

Inspired her to write again?! Wow, now that's flattering!!

That's beasiality isn't it?

Very cute. And I do have to admit, I"m quite the lemon write of S/K but I don't think i've made him go 'demon speed' but I always make sure that he's well equipped. Now I know she's NOT complaining about that! And I don't always make her vulnerable although I've made her err...got kidnapped by Naraku Bfor. Teeheee....er and only once did I make it that Inu left her for Kinky-hoe. Yeah..I think that's all of my confessions.

Just read I am Alpha! and finished this one...I hope the next chapter is up soon, so then the sequel to the sequel can be started!!!! AH, you've turned me into a wreck!! I love these stories, and I hope you continue them. Too often I've read great stories that are left hanging (mine included). Can't wait to read some other of your stories, and get the next chapter out and soon! I'm suffering from withdrawal symptoms...

Rowdys Girl (Chapter 1) - Fri 16 May 2008
Well, if making me cry like a love-sick fool is any measure of the quality of your tale and your writing, then you've struck gold. Very well writen, excellently conceived. Good job all round. Now I have to go wipe my eyes again.


Well think that's enough of my reviews.

Here are some of the reviewers that have made me smile. some of them because they have loyally stayed with me story after story and chapter after chapter, and some just because their comments brought a twinkle to my eye.

I Think It Was the Plotline That Drew Me In. Something About the Fact That She Was a Slave, and Then He Was the Mean Lord, and Somehow They Are Supposed to Be Together Is What Got Me. I Remember Thinking In My Head; 'How Is THAT Going to Happen?' and I Needed to Know, So I Read the Story. It Was Just An Interesting Idea. If You Think of Ideas That Are Interesting and Not Overused Then People Will Be Excited to Read Them. (And Chapter Stories Are Always the Favorite To.) Thank You So Much For the Amazing Story! Beautiful Morning Sun

In my author's notes I had asked what drew people to this particular story, (The Preferential Slave) and she gave the insight I was asking for. Not only that but she stuck it out with me to the end.

ladybattousai - Sun 17 Aug 2008
I read your first chapter. It was pretty good. I like how clean and neat your storytelling is. I think though it could benefit from a little more description. Explore all of the senses a bit more. Sounds, smells, textures, tastes. It helps a lot to immerse the reader.

This comment means a lot to me for many reasons. Ladybattousai has openly admitted (at least to me) that she dosen't read fanfiction very much and although she did not finish the story she did give it a try. Not only that, but she gave a bit of constructive critique that has shaped the way I write today.


MikoPup - Sun 08 Feb 2009

I said it once, and I'll say it again: THIS WAS AWESOME!! I'm still not over my amazement that you fit such a fulfilling story in just four chapters! lol

I hope you decide to write more stories like this--you've got a real talent for it--specially lemons! xD

This comment was left on my story Detrimental Desires. It wasn't that the comment itself was so outstanding. It was the fact that MikoPup(Sahoila) left reviews on multiple sites for the same chapter! I cannot tell you how flattered I was about that!

sugar0o - Sat 17 Jan 2009

OMe`fingGOD!!! i LOVE THIS!! i cant honestly tell you how much i love this fic, i love the logical turn of events, really Inuyasha is such a jerk being mad because Kagome in the seemingly years he's waited and said nothing, has found someone else, albeit a bit unconventionally, still she's not looking to the hanyou for anything any more and its horrible that he even has the right to question her about anything. How many nights has he gone off with the dead miko? And kagome said anything! just because he assumes something doenst mean jack squat! dear god you've got me all hopped up! i s0o0o0 want more of this and how!

I could rant on and on, but i really hope Kags grows a back bone and tells the dog boy off. i love this i love it i love it! update so0n or i'll pounce you r0oishly~!

- r0ozilla

What can I say about r0o? I love her! She has been with me since my very first story, and has left many encouraging, and sometimes humurous reviews!

Last but certainly not least, the irreplacable...

WiccanMethuselah - Thu 26 Feb 2009

Silly girl! I see nothing about this chapter to hate on. Yes, it's a 'filler,' but those are necessary to set up for the action yet to come. Every story has them, they are necessary to the plot development... just cuz there isn't a ton of Sess/Kag interaction, or loads of other excitement, doesn't mean it's not a good chapter, 'k? My ugly beta-eye caught a couple of spots where punctuation was a problem, but that is about all I saw that one might quibble with. Necessary explanations, setting up for future action, advancing the story along... all in all, good stuff!! SMILE, okay? ~~Wiccan~~

Wiccan dosen't leave comments very often, and I think that's part of what makes her reviews so very precious. It was encouraging, insightful, and brought a smile to my face.

I could add many more, but I don't want to take up too much space!

Yay Banner!! TY to Jupe for letting us use her awesome art!

Obviously I'll edit it to have the winners name. And we'll work up a nominee banner too ^.^

Reviews are definitely one of the many things that keep me writing, so I think I'm going to show some love for one from 'Two Colour Palette' which made me smile all day after reading it, especially since it was so eloquent and nice! ^^ So, here we go:

swasdiva (Chapter 1) - Tue 03 Feb 2009

I utterly adore this story. I've seen fics written entirely in present tense, but rarely, if ever, has that device been used for a multi-chapter story. I really like your decision to use it; it lends a sense of anticipation, a sharp awareness of living in the moment. And your moments pass like poetry. Your language paints its own pictures, with a gauzy, atmospheric romanticism that stays with me a long while after I've finished reading. I like your angle of having Kagome get to know Sesshoumaru without knowing who he is. I wonder if that will open the door to his association with her in the past, or if his secrets will come back to bite him in the ass. Gah! I can't wait to read more! Great stuff!

Okay there is the banner for those reviewers nominated as master reviewer ^.^

From some of your posts Im getting that some people think this is just for reviews on Dokuga.. You can nominate ANY reviewer, just as long as they are logged in! So only Anonymous reviews are excluded!

Sorry if this makes it difficult for anyone who's already nominated >.< feel free to add to your nominations. I'm sorry I wasn't more clear earlier.

Have fun! MontiK

OK Monti, you've given me a hard task but here it goes!

Holy Hell that was HOT! Oh please, please keep adding more Inupapa/Kagome stories! There are so few good ones.

From Supreme Conquest...
1.
Excellent, Excellent start! I am really exicted to see this story and I can't wait to see where you take this. I happened to stumble upon it while I was checking disclaimers earlier tonight and I HAD to bookmark it to check it out when I was done.

I love the way that you brought Togaou back. Its a way that I haven't yet seen, so I definitely applaude you on that. I love the character that you're building for him as well. I can't wait to see how he treats Kagome and when it comes to the eventual mating...-fans self- I know it will be passionate and all around great.

Sesshomaru...hmmm, I wonder how he's going to gain her trust. I think you've done a great job of keeping both him and Inuyasha in character and I like that you're making Kagome and Inuyasha to be good friends so theres no romantic conflict. I feared that Togaou's desire to have her for a mate would cause a rift between the father and son before they even got a chance to work on their relationship.

2.
Wow...Kagome's mom is scary...

I cringed as soon as the conversation started. Poor Togaou and Sesshoumaru, lol. That was the intense parental limit break right there...

Great chap as usual! I liked the terms and conditions that she put down her daughter and her care. They all made sense and she made some good points, especially with the injuries/illness part.

I'll be eagerly awaiting the next chapter! Will we get to see Kagome explain some of the modern conveniences to the Daiyokai? I wonder if Togaou and Sesshoumaru will ever be on her mother/grandfather's good side? I hope so on both fronts, but I know I'll enjoy whatever you put out. This is simply a great fic!

3.
Lol! I loved the end to this chapter! Kagome and Sesshoumaru had a moment...of sorts! I can picture this entire chapter playing out so well in my head, but that last scene, was great! I can see Togaou in the shower with the bar of soap...now normally, thats is something that is highly nosebleed worthy, but add in the singing and I can't keep a straight face!

I also enjoyed the dialogue between father and son. Totally believeable and Sesshoumaru did bring up some valid issues.

Another wonderful chapter all around!

4.
Ah to be escorted by those two to school...-sighs happily-

This chapter had me giggling! I can just see them being so amazed while watching the movies and the part with the alarm clock, I knew as soon as she set it, it was gonna be a problem. I could see Sesshoumaru melting it with his poison, and Togaou using his blade on it, lol!

I have a feeling that Kags is going to be overwhelmed by questions from Eri, Yuka and Ayumi...Hojo, well if I was him and saw those two glares directed at me, I would have pissed myself, lol!

Great chapter! can't wait for more


Next one our r0o!

From Kryptonite...
1.
wow, yeah see thats realistic. in a very sad way. : poor Kagome.
2.
lmao a flaming pink Kagome is always a fun kagome

oi dany! she needs to pin that boy to another tree!


Supreme Conquest...

Once the challenge of the pajamas had been conquered, Togaou looked at the beds.

and

However, when she heard both Sesshomaru and Togaou trying to figure out what the noise was then the younger inu saying to kill it before it woke her up; she scrabbled up, grabbed it then shut it off. “No killing it!” She stated in a bit of a panicked voice, looking back and forth between the two a bit wide-eyed.


made the r0o laugh her butt off! I know i've been MIA for a tad bit and i'm so sorry for that, stupid internet is giving me issues, and i'm getting ready for this move, kami i hafta say i dont want to move again for a while. ;anyway this all made me laugh so hard!


r0o loves you dani -nods- this was great!

Next... Possessed

Pound Puppy

Very cute and very sweet Dani! I like the beast's obsession with her underwear... just like a real dog! Nice shower scene too. Nothing like looking down and finding your pet has decided to join you! LOL!

Supreme Conquest...

LMAO!!! An angry, outmaneuvered, drunk Sesshy... a haven't-had-any-in-200-yrs., plotting, horny dog, and an innocent young miko sleeping through it all... Where will it all end up? In bed of course! I am having a great time reading this, Dani. Looking forward to the next morning when she wakes up snuggled to his chest! LOL!

2.
Sesshy has to play second-fiddle to Daddy! I like how Tagaou is pulling all the strings behind the scenes, leaving Sess as the glorified figurehead... and just how far will Sess play along? An intriguing and interesting fic Dani! I am anxious to see where it goes...

Next... LC Rose

Supreme Conquest...

OH, IT'S HERE!! IT'S HERE!! IT'S HERE!!! You have no idea how long I have waited for this fic to be posted, Dany!! And what a delivery it was, too. AND you found a way for Fluffy to keep his arm. YEAH, YOOOOUU!!!!

2.
OH, DANY! DANY! DANY!!! I LOVE YOU!!!!! I'm so stoked right now I cannot even begin to form the proper words of praise that I should. These last three chapters were positively, sinfully wonderful!! And god how I envy Kagome right now.... God, I'll come back when I can praise properly!!!

3.

The only good thing about having a dead comp and no easy access to internet is the fact that I get to read several chapters at once instead of having to wait. And I am loving the story, dany!!!!

Eyes Shut...

Oh, dany. Oh, dany, dany, dany. I liked this one a lot. And I can see it so clearly in my mind. Once more, your GMs are amazing. I know rOo will be proud.



Next... Nobody

From Supreme Conquest...

You are one of the very best fan-fic authors, and you are so prolific! I love the way you update so fast, and how many nice, long stories you have written. Thanks for many, many hours of wonderful entertainment.

2.

You are a great author. I usually hold off on reading your stories so that I can read a nice big bundle of chapters all together, but I couldn't wait on this one. I love the idea of Kagome surrounded by three such luscious males. Sigh.

Kryptonite....

This was the best chapter yet! So much happened all at once, it made my head spin, but, as always, it was handled so logically and gracefully that it all fell right into place. And Kagome's going to have a baby! How exciting!!!!

Next.... Smittee...

Firefly Kitsune...

Supreme Conquest...

My favorite part of this chapter was when Kagome's mom was washing her back while talking to her. There was this sense of closenes that really made me warm and fuzzy inside. I also loved her "discussion" with the two demons. I can almost see them as little puppies with their tails between their legs! It's good to see that there has been a reality check for those dogs - everything has been way too easy for them so far. Gotta give them something to work for. Oh, the possibilities! You have so many different things you can do with this story! And if Kagome needs a textbook to be her weapon, she can use my physical chemistry textbook. My friends and I coined it as the "Big Red Book of Death." It has to weigh at least 10-12 pounds. I would only have to bring it out into the hall and my dorm mates would know they better be quiet or else! Can't wait to see what else you have in store for us!


I will say this, i had a helluva time with this one because of the amount of stories i have and the reviews i got. I love all my reviewers but these were the ones that stood out without me trolling through all i have on ff.net


LOVE YOU my reviewers!

I just got these amazing reviews for Lunch is Optional from I Agree, they made my day and made me all warm and fuzzy inside.

I Agree (Chapter 5) - Mon 06 Apr 2009
Awww, it's over? But... But I just started reading it! ;_; Why? *sniffle sniffle* Oh, but it's fantastic anyway. Something came up Kagome? You had to deal with it? Why, how honest of you! XD And poor Inu-Yasha, his widdle heart coulnd't handle it, huh?... but I thought only cats had nine lives? I guess hanyou are that lucky too huh? (I have noticed Inu has a few kitty traits). Thank you for sharing your work with us little people, I enjoyed every chapter (BTW I can't believe Kagome was ballsy enough to demand him to stay naked when he cleaned up. Awesome!) and look forward to reading other works by you. Please Regard Me Kindly, I Agree


I Agree (Chapter 4) - Mon 06 Apr 2009
Muahahaha! Sesshie has fallen to the snausages! We can now rule the world (and him)! Haha! This is wonderful! I don't think I've laughed so well in ages! I couldn't wait to read it all to review, it's awesome! And poor Kagome, will she ever get any rest? (Considering how much stamina Sesshie has, I'm thinking no). Hmmm... I wonder what possibilitiues there are with the bacon and sausage! -.o I love it! Keep it up, I can't wait to read more! Please Regard Me Kindly, I Agree


Thank you I Agree!!!
