I find it really sad that Kuwabara would separate himself from Kagome emotionally and just automatically step aside for Kurama. Then again, he is completely human and it would never occur to him they could both have her so he just assumes she would be better off with Kurama. I doubt Kagome would think of it, so it will be interesting to see how you get Kurama to broach the subject. At least, that seems to be direction you are going with this. Of course, directions have been known to change. [g] best laid plans and all that. I could definitely see Kuwabara damaged by Yukina's rejection of him.

You are just really, really tugging on my heartstrings with Kuwabara. I loved chapter 10. (I've read it three times already. ^_^) I have a couple of questions. What does Kagome DO? How does she support herself and Shippou? And it's a bit strange that she carries Shippou around so much when he's supposed to be in the third grade. I'm sure he doesn't fit in with the human kids if his mother is still lugging him around. I realize that as a kitsune, he cold still have that really childlike nature and behavior for a long, long time, but it really would set him apart when he's trying to fit in with a world that doesn't know he's different underneath. I love it that Kurama is "so enamored with Kagome that he couldn't help anything around her." That's really sweet, and TELLING. I liked the way you spent time in this chapter concentrating on each of them with her separately. There are really four stories, of a sort, in this. There's Kurama/Kag, Kuwabara/Kag, and the love between the two friends, AND the love between the THREE friends. You're handling them all so well! Up til now, it's mostly been the three of them, and the two friends. Now the romances are blossoming, and they each will have a different path for that. I am so looking forward to all of it. ^_^ I loved her talk with Kurama, -- especially when she told him "I knew a man who wouldn't let me love him because he didn't expect me to, but I did." Kurama immediately discerned that it didn't end well. I can't wait for THAT story!! Especially since she also told him that he loves as easily as the inu love pack, and he thought to himself that the inu have been extinct for decades. Then, it was Kuwabara's turn to show us that his thoughts had turned from friendship to love. We got the lowdown on Yukina. It was so nice when Kagome offered him the scrolls. At first, she had said she knew the stories "almost like I lived through it." But then she told him her past was IN those scrolls and she offered them to him. What a beautiful gesture. And I liked it that he felt guilty for not telling her all of his past. The gloves were another beautiful gesture, and I giggled when she kissed his cheek. *sigh* Then, you had the New Year's scene, where he watched her and Kurama together and decided to step away when the time came so they could be a family. My heart just aches for him. This was an awesome chapter!!

Well, I'm now all caught up, but I'm going to read chapter 10 again in a minute. ^_^ I'll start my comments from chapter 8. When Kuwabara was studying, we got out first glimpse of his lingering thoughts of Yukina. It's sad, yet touching that he would still be thinking of her. I wonder how long she has been gone? It was cute that Kurama wanted to go see Kagome and Shippou, but didn't want to let Kuwabara know that he wanted to. ^_^ What does Kurama DO, by the way. You mentioned he was on vacation time. I was surprized that when Kurama suggested they go have some tea Kuwabara spoke right up with "Kagome would probably make better tea." After having had her tea ONCE. I guess he was sub-consciously wanting to go back, too, huh? ^_^ It was cute that Kurama steered Kuwabara where he wanted them to go. But it was even cuter when Kuwabara realized it. LOL!! It was such a sad little moment when Kuwabara was thinking that he and Kurama are like beauty and the beast. (He's NOT ugly!! Poor big lug.) And he proved just how insightful he is when Kurama commented on Kagome being lonely, but Kuwabara defined it better as her feeling out of place. I liked the little mention that she seems older than her friends. I LOVED the part where Kurama was questioning her about Shippou's age and she answered him evasively. Then she just flat-out told him not to beother because they both knew and they both knew each other knew. The tension and the way she knocked him back on his heels with her bluntness just tickled me. It was awesome! And I liked it when Kurama was finally interacting with Shippou by playing with him at the picnic in chapter 9 instead of just observing him with Kuwabara all the time. It's about time he got involved instead of standing on the sidelines. then Kuwabara engaged in the tickle fest with Shippou AND Kagome, but when he saw a couple walking by, he thought about Yukina. He's still caught in the past. But he feels at home with Kag and shippou. (And Kurama.) I know this is a Kuwa/Kag/Kur story, and I love it, but i am still wondering how you're going to handle that with them all living in the Ningenkai. It's going to look very unconventional. Will one of them actually marry her? And if so, which one? you've just got me pondering the possibilities. Heh heh! Great stuff!

I had to devour 3 more chapters. ^_^ I like the way the two kitsune and Kagome soothe Kuwabara's own soul. And you coined a great term with the idea of a "combined weave of acceptance." I have really been enjoying the way you've described people through the way their aura affects Kuwabara. It's really quite clever and engaging. You left me smiling when Kuwabara was so startled because "no one had ever looked at him like that." The big lug needs some LOVE. Poor Kurama, -- he had to use his looks to distract Kagome's other friend. It's so hard to be so desirable. (Like I'd know what that felt like -- HA! LOL!!) Loved the bit about Shippou "claiming" Kagome as his mother. It's so obvious that you've put a lot of thought into the nature of kitsune and that makes this really great. The further interactions between Shippou and Kuwabara while Kagome made dinner were so nice. It's so intersting to see that Shippou didn't latch onto Kurama even though he has the soul of a kitsune. You explained it wonderfully, though, earlier when you talked about them adoring large souls. Makes perfect sense. And Kurama let Kuwa in on the fact that Shippou's not human. That really kind of tickled me since earlier Kurama had assumed Kagome would be a kitsune. ^_^ You described Kagome's soul so beautifully in chapter 7, it was sheer poetry. I was intrigued when Kuwa was so nervous about telling her what he was studying. Of course, Kagome would be understanding of the way everyone looked at him and expected him to only be interested in sports. I loved the tidbit about Souta being in the J-League. That was a great touch. It was fun, too, to see that Kuwabara and Kurama hadn't been sure that SHE knew what Shippou was until she talked about society judging people. I love the way you're letting her past experiences show through in her defensiveness when she thought they were saying that she and Shippou needed someone to take care of them. I really can't wait to hear how her adventure ended. What happened to dear old Inuyasha? I will catch up on the rest tomorrow, and then just sit and wait for your next update. ^_^

Hee hee hee! I'd forgotten how sweet the first few chapters were! I had to read three more before stopping to review again. ^_^ You did such an awesome job of letting us in on a lot of things about all three major characters. (And Shippou. ^_^) You defined a lot of relationships and you told us a lot about the nature of kitsune. In the 2nd chapter, Kuwabara called Kurama and thought about how Kurama was so polite that it was almost painful for him sometimes. Heh heh! then Kurama reassured his friend that he is always good for something. You're giving us hints that Kuwabara needs some ego boosting. He's really down on himself. I really liked the description of Kuwabara's impressions of Shippou's soul, -- he sounds a lot like Kagome. ^_^ It was interesting to see that the things Shippou told and about Kagome, and the WAY he told them, said so much to Kuwabara. In the 3rd chapter, we found out that some of what he said told even more to another kitsune. The hair length explanation was nicely done. I liked the insight we got into Kurama's interest in Kuwabara being partly because his gentle spirit was so at odds with his upbring and environment that he was an "anomaly." And he recognized Shippou for what he was right away and admired the way he could discern so much about Kuwabara at his age. "It was purely kitsune to adore the large souls of beings they met." Brilliant! In the 4th chapter, we finally get to see Kagome and Shippou reunited. Yay! If he'd been gone for hours, though, I'm surprized she didn't have a policeman beside her. I loved Kurama's surprize because he had been searching for a female kitsune. Heh heh! When Yuka was making eyes at Kurama and he got annoyed and thought that her eyes weren't even as precious a stone as ..., -- I couldn't help but giggle. ^_^ Loved the way both guys stepped up to "rescue" Kag from her friend. I'm going to read at least a couple more chapters tonight. This is such a great read! (And it's fun to read a fic where Kurama is the hero instead of the sneaky little bastard I'm making him out to be in my story. LOL!!) And, of course, it's just fabulous to see Kuwabara play such a large role. Go Kuwa!!!

Heh heh! I'm starting over from the beginning. The intro of Shippou and Kuwabara was socute. I liked the way you set it up, with Kuwabara's sensitivity being so high. And you already let us know that Kuwabara and Kurama have become close. Moving on. ^_^

it was all the happy friendly family group, the for of them and now kazuma is going to step aside. he has no confidence and wouldn't believe the kagome could love him. he fails to consider the fact that shippo is kagome's priority and his presence is good for shippo and her, she's isolated because no one around her knows their past, their natures or how to relate to them. who better that kazuma and kurama? . . . as always you write with warmth, insight, feeling and lovely detail. ~ delighted, ginny
