( Week 204 )

Title: In The Face of Fear

Author: Nicluv1787

Prompt: hesitation

Word Count: 1712

Rating: R (for violence)

Warning: dark fic, violence and mild gore.

Summary: Kohaku takes steps to learn to battle his inner demons.

A/N: This is set post canon, sometime while Kagome is trapped in the current era. This is also my first attempt at something dark, and more violent, also my first real attempt at action, so I hope I did alright. I did get a little carried away, I had no idea it would be this long. >.< I’d also like to thank my Beta P-tama for correcting the mistakes I make when I write at 1 am.

( The piercing scream, the steady beating oh his heart in his ears, the soft, yet firm, voice chanting ‘kill, kill’ )

3rd subject of this post - we now have a new layout and a new profile layout! I can't quite figure how to add the former header to this current lj layout, but never fear! I shall keep on trying.

But on the whole, I think that you guys will love both our new additions! ♥

*rushes in* Might as well...though I'm not sure I really like it. *bites nails*

Title: Bad Day
Author: royalbk
Theme: #Bad Omen
Genre: Comedy
Word count: 1300
Rating: T
Character(s)/Pairing: Sesshoumaru & Kagome
Fandom: Inuyasha
Summary: Together they made a not so ordinary fairytale. But who really needed glorified princes and wilting princesses in the end? SesshoumaruxKagome
A/N: This is the third drabble in my Fairytale Figments collection. You can find the rest on FF.net, even though you're not necessarily missing anything of vital importance yet.

Just developing the relationship

Title: “Just this Once…?”
THEME: “A Memorable Event” --- as inspired by our passing of “Week 100”
Author: Sango Shadowphoenix
Word count: 2700. Clearly, a one-shot.
Rated ‘M’ for “Mature.” Or “Many Explicit Sexual Situations.” Your Pick.
Genre: Lemon. Probably a PWP…?
Universe: Alternate
Disclaimer: InuYasha and its characters belong to Takahashi-sensei.

Summary: Kagome’s in a pinch. A pinch she just might as well enjoy.

Dedication: I dedicate my first lemon to ebony_silks, because it was the first writing community I joined, has awesome readers and writers and lurkers, and because it does wonders to get my lazy ass back into gear for writing. So, I humbly give to you, ebony_silks, my first lemon. *curtsy* Please be kind and give me pointers~ Hahaha.
No. Seriously. Tear it apart, and don’t be afraid to spit it back at me, despite that it is “a lemon.” (Actually, this goes for all my works!)

Warnings: Explicit Sexual Content. Proceed if over 18. If not over 18 --- just don’t let anyone catch you. And if you get caught, be smart and take responsibility for your actions. (For example, blame yourself for proceeding despite the warnings, not the person who’s posting on the internet.) *peace sign*

One more A/N: I apologize profusely for the tardiness. And. Despite my best efforts…. I think this might fall into the category of a PWP. *frown* That’s also a first.

Author's Note: Waugh. I'd planned to submit something much bigger, but at 5000 words plus and still going it obviously won't be finished tonight. So I threw this together instead. Sorry if it's rushed and sucky. :( Part of the Dog at Heart saga.
