Was it Jonathan Swift who wrote "A Modest Proposal", suggesting that the Irish should just eat each other?  I loved this chapter, in spite of the depressing setting.  Excellent writing!

-worships the new chapter-

what a delightful surprise in my email! ah i love this story <3 kagomes behavior is rather intriguing :o

yaaaaaaaaaaaay...finally a new chapter...sorry i'm so impatient but i simply love this story s much that i could read on and on an on withot a break

...that was really a great chapter...not just because of te progress between sesshoumaru and kagome XD XD XD XD

but because we finally got a little clue what's going on with the order and the shapeshifters....

...well i think i don't really need to tell ou to update soon cause you know we are all eageryl awaiting the next chapter C:

YAY YOU FINALLY UPDATED!!!! Those darn muses can be such a pain *eyes her own muse evilly*. I totally SQUEED when Sesshomaru and Kagome finally hooked up... it was cool cuz it's different than all the other stories. Sure she has feelings for him and it's obvious he's got something going for her, but he's still all set in his ways and stuff. So it makes sense that it would take more time than what they've already spent together to actually build a relationship... that and it's kind of hard to get romantic when you're fretting over the obliteration of your own race.

Awesome job and good luck with the muse! I hope you update soon!

Wow. This chapter made me cry. You did such an excellent job writing it! I was so impressed! Great work!

Up. Date. Plz?

I absolutely LOVE this story... please update sometime soon?  (gives virtual cookies filled with awesomeness and inspiration and... chocolate?)  Your writing is amazing, even if you say this one was like pulling teeth.  Please please please continue this story soon! ^_^

still a great fiction ! I had begun to read it on FF.net and I continued here, on Dokuga. still so great !! I love this new turn of events. what will Sesshoumaru and Kagome do ? (suspens)

I'm looking forward your update.

RosieB where have you run off to? I hope you're muse comes back soon so you can update again! I'm going crazy waiting for another chappie to satisfy my curiosity! Keep up the great work!

wow this is a good story keep up the good work ^_^

Rawr! You're Back! -huggles-

I've missed your stories sooooooo muuuuchhh D':

Don't leave us again... I was starting to have withdrawal symptoms D:!

I hope you know I'm ripping my hair out in anticipation.

Just making sure you're aware.

I've finally finished what you've written so far, and I have to say that I have thoroughly enjoyed it. The two of them have grown so close, and there's so much underspoken emotion between Sesshoumaru and Kagome. The underlying tension there is delicious, and I love how they both pretend it's not there. It can be frustrating at times, but I'm looking forward to seeing how you handle it! It should be excellent! Keep on writing, and I'll be awaiting the next chapter eagerly!

Was that a Buffy reference I detected? :)

I've been reading this whenever I have free time, and I have to say I love what's been happening. I'm currently on the Tortuga chapter. It's been absolutely excellent reading. I enjoy your style of writing, and I like the way you've written the character. Your entire premise is quite intriguing, and I'm excited to keep reading and see where you go with this. Very lovely writing again! Keep it up! :)

-Gets out pencil and paper and history book then sits in front of the comp-

I dont need to go to school anymore mommy! all i have to do is read this!

Its awesome!but of course you know this :3

UPPPPPPPPPDDDDDDDAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

...Please? :3

please updata

This story has had me glued to my computer! I absolutely love it! Please update soon and I hope your muse comes back from vacation soon. :p Great job and can't wait to read the next chapter! :)

Oh my god! You updated! *throws confetti* I am so happy with your comeback and this chapter. I think twelve years is a good amount of time to sort out one's feelings and deal with any blockage/issues Kagome and Sesshomaru have. It is really nice to see them so... Well, on the road to being completely comfortable with one another again. They're making progress. Me thinks only good things can come from this.

The down side of breaks: I had a total brain fart and completely forgot about The Order. I was so caught up in Kagome's issues, what's-his-name and the last chapter's fight that I'd forgotten about anyone other than the six - four - immortals. I had to go back and reread the information (though it wasn't much) you'd given about them. My hate for them has doubled. Thank you.

Well, obviously, this was a fantastic chapter. Which is surprising really, if one considers the lack of fighting (foes with faces) and sex... Actually, I should be upset because more questions and an inoperable tumor of an issue has actually popped up rather than more easily fixed answers. Strange... Thank you for posting such a jewel though. ^^ I hope all's well on your side of the computer. Maybe life will be horribly boring for a few months and you can update again soon? *hopeful* Yes? Okay.

P.S.: WOW. Just wanted to give you kudos on your well-thought out plot. I love the imperialism idea. Genius. And it makes a frighteningly large amount of sense. Colonialism is a plot. And not for the religious white-washing shit we thought it was for. *paranoid* Are you a conspiracy theorist, by any chance?

this story is mavulous really goooooood.

why are you putting kagome and sesshomaru at such a disadvantage.

it's like you don't want them to win.  I want to see them win!!! what can i say, i like happy endings
