He kept it with him all those centuries? I never expected Sesshoumaru to get so.. nostalgic over something like that, but then again, our favorite daiyoukai is full of surprises, especially as a child. This chapter was a lovely read, very heart-warming. 

Yay, more inuyoukai customs :) That means more cute Sesshoumaru-Kagome interaction, which makes me a very happy (though by this time also very tired) reader! And I just realized I am over halfway with this story already. Though I am anxious to know how it will end, I don't want it to end at the same time.. Oh well.

Ryuukotsusei-sama gives me the shivers as well. At least Kagome has her own little Sesshoumaru-hero to protect her. :) 

Sneaky Kagome :)

Snuggling tiny Sesshoumaru, Kagome's so lucky! This scene is adorable.

Oh my, she gets to ride puppy Sesshoumaru?! I'm so jealous! Her response had me laughing too: it must be hard to ever look at Sesshoumaru in the same light again, seeing his puppy form like that :3

"Higurashi’s sadness was his enemy; her delight was his." This line is so perfect.

Typically Kagome here :)

Ah, our wise Miroku stumbles upon an important point, as I would have expected from him! I love where you are going with this :) 

Poor Sesshoumaru, spending all that time (though it is not that long for him) protecting something that's his, only to find out it has been snatched by Inuyasha. 

Ah, onward I go, in all my curiousity and haste to find out more!

I don't really understand the exploding onto the scene (are you referring to the actual end of the canon story?), but it's so Kagome and so Sesshoumaru to do something like that :)

Oh, the suspense of not knowing is killing me, but since i feel obliged to review: love how the plot is unweaving here, so I'll quickly move on to the next chapter!

Oooh, the mystery of Kagome's past (but at the same time future -puzzled-) is unraveled! Sesshoumaru must have been so hurt when she disappeared though..

Is he possibly going to visit his good old Inumama? 

He kept the buttons of her sweater? Sesshoumaru is quite quick to catch on to the matter, for something that happened so long ago! 

Ooh, I was waiting for this! After I realized the whole 'echo' thing I went back to reread the first chapter and it made much more sense -grin- Now let's see what will happen :O

The proceedings for the festival described in this chapter are utterly fitting, and I was awed by the scene I had conjured up in my head. And then I started smiling and got all warm and tingly inside with Sesshoumaru singing for his companions. Well done!

I have the scene of Sesshoumaru barging in in his new outfit to prance in front of Kagome in my head now, so adorable! And the ear-checking thing is very sweet too, so mushy :)

Argh, I can't get over how cute Sesshoumaru is, it's melting me. Anyway, another well-written chapter (geez, my comments must be getting repetitive, but I cannot help it D: ), on to the next! Although I wonder, aren't dogs natural swimmers?
