Had to reread this one again! Still love it!

I decided to leave a review before I read the chapter...how have you been? I miss you! Lol It's been so long. I remember when your stories were my only comfort, my salvation. I'm doing better than ever...yeah I feel like shit iften because I'm confronting my past, but dammit it feels good to fight instead of running away. It's going to feel so nice to submerse myself in another beautiful chapter from you...talk about nostalgia lol. I hope all us well with you...my email is kim15strong@yahoo.com...send me something lol it'd be nice to shoot the shit ;-)

Congratulations on completing another story! I love this story through and through; from the ups to the downs and all of the humor in between, this piece of art just reaffirms my belief of you being one of the best author's I've had the pleasure of reading. You always deliver the goods and I'll always be grateful for that. And again this last chapter showcased your amazing talent for description! Thanks again and might I say that the new bridal skin is just stunning! Props to the creator; insanely talented!

DaGrrrl says: Thanks, Kimmy! ^^ I love this artwork. I told her exactly what I wanted and she brought it to life. Sarah makes really lovely art for me and I just adore her style! I had this piece done in 2011, but refused to show it until I finished this fic. So, here it is. :)

Thanks for reading this one and leaving such a kind review! It's nice to close out another story, even if it took way too long. Now I just have a trillion more to go!

Oh Rin! Why?! It's a pretty sad reality, though. And does InuYasha have to be so callous? lol (that's probably a resounding yes!) but I understand why he is. It was nice to see a softer side of him, though. Hopefully, Kagome doesn't suffocate in this tangled web you've weaved ;)

So we got some Sess/Kagura time...and the plot thickens! I wonder how Kikyo's gonna tie into this..hmm I have my theories (probably inaccurate)!

This Masa place must be big shit! I do think I've heard of it, though, well I've heard of the famous Kobe beef. One-thousand bucks for 2? If I ever hit the lottery, I'm gonna try that place.

Okay so guess what? Last night, I fell, well, slipped down a flight of stairs and somehow ended up putting a gash in between my pinky and second-to-last toe. I was just gonna slap some peroxide and a band-aid on it, but my sister took me to the H instead...I ended up getting 9 flippin' stitches and it hurts like hell! Tell me why my sister took all kinds of pictures of the gash? Talk about morbid! But I still made it to therapy, so I'm proud of that. Oh I don't think I told you about my therapy but I have MDD and the way I found out is a long story...I'm getting help though and I feel a lot better, I mean I still have issues to work through, but Hot Stuff Josh (my sexy therapist) is helping me through it, so it's all good under the hood..well almost:)

Totally love the skin and thank you for the update, I really enjoyed it.

Wonderful job on this chapter! I never knew Kouga could be such a dark character; it's a scary, but welcome change. This has to be one of my favorite Rin portrayals; comical and fiery. I'm anxious to see how a romance pairing, if any, will brew between Rin and Sesshomaru. If not, it's still entertaining to read their confrontations! And wow, I don't think Sesshomaru can get more uppity- I love it! It just fits him so well and gives an air of "untouchable." Again, great chapter! I'm a bit nervous about the future of InuYasha and Kagome. Kouga apparently doesn't play and also, this secret that she's keeping? I just sense foreboding!

About the shorter chapters, I think that's a great idea. It'd be easier on your hands and also, I pick content over length any day! I don't believe bigger is better...(*insert lewd contemplation* rofl)...On a side note, grrrl, you have access to the most amazing artists! Take care!

DaGrrrl says: Kimmy! ^^ How the heck are you, girly?? Nice to see you're still around! When my hands -and brain- are cooperating, GFE is a blast tow rite. Everyone is so extreme that it becomes fun. This is my darkest Kouga ever, but I never really liked him, so it works for me. Hehe. Sesshomaru is my favorite, though. I absolutely LOVE writing him and his shitty tude. <333 I want this story to be one of the ones I complete before the end, so here's to hoping my hands will be kinder to me. The chapters from here on out will be short, but I'll try to move the plot as fast as I can. ^^

Thanks for the lovely review! <33

Sadly, I have not started on this story, yet! I'm trying to pace myself and read a little at a time these days lol. I liken it to leaving money in a pants pocket and forgetting about it. Then when laundry day comes around, you find the money and it's like hell yeah! Anyway, I digress.

Just wanted to say that The Diamond skin is just WOW! It is beyond hot; I'm not sure how recent it is, but I saw it and had to give props to the artist! Good grief! By the way, is that U-KISS on the playlist or another group? I would like to obtain a few of those songs!

Take care of yourself! Until next time...

I'm not sure if I reviewed this chapter already, but whatev! I don't remember reading this, though. I love this InuYasha...the way he shifts from pleasure to pain (dishing it out, of course lol) I just never know what to expect next. The last line broke my illusion that Kagome could keep him on his happy streak if she obeys. Anywho, thanks for the update. Hope all is well with you!

Hey,grrrl I don't remember my twitter login, so I'll leave this here: Happy Birthday!!! I hope you enjoyed it!

Author's Response: Thanks, Kimmy!!! <3333 Hope you're doing well!

Hey, Grrrl! Ooooh I love the new art for this one!! Good going, Sarah ;)

Just had to reread this chapter (in prep for the new one)! I absolutely love Sango's thoughts on Kagome haha. It's so different from what's expected. Also I'm very interested in Bankotsu's love interest in this; I have my speculations, but we'll see ;) Is it awful that I love Bankotsu's vulgarity? Lol

This was a fun read. I never really got into drabbles, but I liked this one! I could see this being a full blown story, too, but the simplicity of it is perfect.
