Congratulations Elegant Paws - your story The Art of Tea has been nominated for Best Characterization (Sesshoumaru) and Best Comedy at the Inuyasha FanGuild for the Fourth Quarter of 2008! This is only the first step in the process though-all nominations have to be seconded in order to reach voting. Furthermore, each nominated story must pass a careful screening process in order to make certain that all stories nominated at the IYFG meet our standards for technical quality. In the event that your story is disqualified for technical reasons, the IYFG offers resources to help you make improvements so that you can appeal the disqualification and have the nomination of your story reinstated. These resources include a Grammar Guide (posted on our website) of helpful hints and common mistakes, as well as a newly created Beta Group to assist you in making any changes you wish to make. You are in no way obligated to use these resources, but they're here for anyone who is interested. If you would like to learn more, keep abreast of your story's progress, or perhaps even join the IYFG and participate in our proceedings yourself, visit our website at Inuyashafanguild.com (or search "Inuyasha FanGuild" if you cannot access the link). And feel free to contact a moderator if you have any questions-their contact info is available on the site. Congratulations again! CatLover260

Why hello again! :) Good chapter. ...Um, is Kagome naked? Because that would be slightly awkward.

WHEEEEEEEEEEE MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! Happy Hanukkah, Happy Holidays, (its good to be out of school for the next few months until I start my university course *hip hip harray* (of course in the mean time I am VERY BORED)) (should I insert a Hex message here so this isn't offencive????) Great chapter... how have you been???? Its been ages since you have written (I hope that you have been alright, I just hope you have been busy, (hopefully not uninspired to write...)) Why after reading your story do I feel like I've gone on a sugar high... (Very happy about the new chapter...)

lol I have been wondering for quite some time about another similar situation with Jaken... (waking up to find Jaken telling Kagome/other female to get out of the masters bedroom) I Imagine it would end with screaming... GREAT chapter!

Teehee..."you will bathe with this Sesshoumaru" *Giggle* Okay I'm satisfied. You could probably end the fic on that note. Good chapter and good luck with the next. Butterflies. I would never have thought to use them as a theme. Good job as always!

I have to say I am quite confused. Not by your story, but rather by the fact that it appears to have been disqualified from the nomination it received at IYFG based on purported "grammar, punctuation, and word usage issues." Now, I'm not necessarily going to attest that your grammar, punctuation, and word usage are *perfect* (nor am I saying they aren't, frankly, I didn't go back and read *all* of your chapters after noticing this disqualification). However, I will point out that I have never actively noticed any problems with your writing (and please believe me, mediocre writing jumps out at me to the point where I can barely continue reading a story if there are numerous spelling, grammar, punctuation, etc. mistakes). Contrary to what conclusions might be drawn from the combination of my distaste for careless writing in combination with the IYFG disqualifications, I am thoroughly enthralled with this story. I look forward to each chapter with anticipation. While I was hesitant at first to start reading TAoT (I guess I thought perhaps a story about tea would be boring), I was quite pleasantly surprised once I started reading. Indeed, I can confidently say that TAoT is among my top 5 favorite ongoing stories (i.e., serials that are not yet completed) at the moment. Stories with poor grammar just don't impress me very much. So I am left entirely confused as to why this fic has been disqualified from the 2008 2Q voting. Please don't take such disqualifications to heart. My apologies if you feel this is irrelevant (usually, to the extent that I am moved to review, I prefer to comment on the story internally, rather than reacting to something external). I know this review is not directly pertinent to any particular chapter of TAoT, but in light of the apparent disqualification, I felt compelled to write and point out how well crafted I find your story to be. (Also I'm not sure how timely this is; I just visited the IYFG site for the first time a few days ago, so perhaps this is old news). The latest update pertaining to nominations appears to have been 2 days ago, on 8/8/08.

Ahhh the butterfly is now explained. I am still a little fuzzy as to what Kagome understood about Sesshoumaru when she caught on to the butterfly meaning. Hmmm, maybe I need to read it again. I also found Sango's studio apt. to be strangely appealing. In any case, I enjoyed this chapter. Good luck with the next.

I just read chapter 13B, and all I can think of to say is 'Wow.' I think I would have fainted too. I sure wish I could put maybe 11 or 12 for Enjoyment Factor.

I am enjoying the exchanges between Kagome and Sesshoumaru. It appears they are attracted to each other, but as much as Sesshoumaru has declared she will be his concubine, even he is having second thoughts. Kagome seems to be attracted to Naraku and Sesshoumaru. I was surprised when you mentioned at the end of this last chapter that they had only known each other two days. Did I misinterpret that? Somehow I though much more time had passed, with many tea ceremonies.

HA! I loved the A/n at the end of this chapter... You my dear author may be Evil personified but the last time I looked up your name in my fanfiction encyclopedia in my mountain estate...(ahem...is the sarcasm a bit too much?) *grin...* but you do evil really well with a picture of you beside the description. Killing me softly with these words... If you didn't, then the stories would not be as entertaining or as funky fresh... LOV IT! Congrats and hope to see more from you in the future! Chao bella!

AAAAAAAAAH SO CUTE! Rin and Sesshoumaru are so cute together. I just want to hug him. I am curious to how this will go. Are Kagura and Inuyasha going to hook up? I've never seen that match before. In any case, good luck with the next chapter!
