This part of the fic was my favorite. oh did excellent work portraying it.

aiko,

I already reviewed this over on Deviant Art, but it's so brilliant it deserves one here too. As I mentioned in my previous review I'm honored that you chose my story to grace with such brilliant talent. Your ability to capture the moment blows my mind.

There are so many things I love about this picture, and I named a few of them in my previous review, but the expression on Kagome's face is something I think every viewer can hone in on. Kagome's bitterness is right there. Her anger and rage at what Inuasha's allowed Sesshoumaru to do to her is burning in her eyes. I love it! Not to mention the death grip she has on those torn beads! You can tell that there is no more forgiveness for him in her, that she has totally reached the end of her kindness when it comes to him and his foolishness.

The other thing that I love about this picture, and I don't know if you did it intentionally or not, is the fact that Kagome is clearly in royal robes, clearly a woman of power and class, but Sesshoumaru is dressed, while nicely, nowhere near as finely as she is. As awesome as Sesshoumaru's presence is, as powerful a figure as he cuts, it is Kagome that demands attention in this picture. Kagome who stands out and seems to radiate power. That, to me, speaks volumes.

So again, thank you for your kind work and as soon as I finish chapters for a few other stories I'm working on, I'll get the next chapter up for this story. In it we get too see Kagome and Sesshoumaru discuss her reaction to him after the birth, and we'll check in and see just how miserable Inuyasha is.

Sincerely,

Aiko, I truly love ALL of your work! Great job, this is amazing!

I think that you captured the moment perfectly. The anger on Kagome's face and the smug look on Sesshomaru's is right on point. Not to mention, it looks amazing. Great job!
