Eye of the Typhoon - Chapter 12

Read on AO3

Summary: Kagome starts preparing for her plan to find work at the Tower. Inuyasha makes some preparations of his own.

Chapter 12 is up! One reason for the long delay - moving all my worldly possessions from one location to another. Another reason for the long delay - the words coming out of my fingertips mutinied, would not do what I wanted, and had to be negotiated with in order to reach a mutually acceptable solution.

Jealous Dog-Boy's greatest hits.

Inuyasha crying at Kikyou's final death is very moving but I think it's important to remember that by his own admission, he would not have been able to cry for her, before. It's only thanks to Kagome that he feels comfortable enough with himself to cry at all and show vulnerability to others. That's what really makes that moment beautiful to me. (Though in a bittersweet way, obviously.)

I also want to focus on the "What true strength and kindness is" line because to me this implies Kagome is the paragon of strength and kindness that Inuyasha wanted to model himself after. Obviously we all know that potential was already in him and Kagome coaxed it out and praised it from him, but I think it's really beautiful to hear Inuyasha thought of Kagome as his role model, in a way. After all, being brave in order to help people WAS one of the first compliments Inuyasha ever admitted to himself about her.

Eye of the Typhoon - Chapter  7

Chapter 7 is up! Summary:  Kaede shows Kagome where to go where she WON'T get attacked by demons. Inuyasha does some errands for Totosai and finds something rather interesting.

I’d like to thank my writers block and upcoming professional examinations for making this a particularly difficult chapter to get out. Next chapter is gonna be a turning point :)

Eye of the Typhoon - Chapter 8

Chapter Summary: Inuyasha finally gets one of his questions answered. Why did Kagome really leave the barrier?

After a brief hiatus due to Covid I am back at it! Every chapter I put out is a humble reminder of the amount of work and thought it takes to put a story to words. It makes me even more grateful for the writers I admire! 

Inuyasha’s expression is amazing!

Guess this is an inukag blog now huh lol

Japanese-american musician Kishi Bashi just posted photos of a new custom guitar with scenes from my OTP on front and back!

This is amazing!
