Kagome POV? 🥺💖
It was after a good quarter-hour of being poked and prodded at, of having her waist cinched into an ornately-patterned obi and of having her unruly hair yanked into whatever semblance of an updo could be managed, that Kagome was finally left alone. The servants charged with preparing her and Inuyasha for the court assembly filed out the door back to whence they came, and so she was finally free to speak again.
“Inuyasha.”
He looked up from where he sat on the edge of his bedroll, dressed in a crimson haori that matched the color of her own outfit almost perfectly. Kagome hated herself for the instinctive, lovestruck fluttering in her stomach as she took in the sight of him in his court attire, hated that her mind was distracted enough to swoon over him when there were so many more pressing matters at hand. But she couldn’t help it. He’s a prince, she thought. Youkai royalty. And even with the miserable, uncomfortable expression on his face, he looked it.
She crossed the room to sit beside him, sinking into the volume of her skirts and using his offered hand to balance herself upright. “This kimono I’m wearing,” she said softly, keeping her fingers interlaced with his as she leaned her cheek against his shoulder, “Who does it belong to?”

Oblivion Ch37 Preview - Sango’s POV
I’m working through some shit rn (story-related, not IRL) so here’s a small teaser of the upcoming chapter to keep me accountable to all you sweetie pies and thank you for all your patience and kindness the past several months!
Sango was still several feet back, still rooted to the spot where she’d been flung backward in a display of demonic strength, and even from there she could see those eyes, those arrestingly green eyes that seemed to glow with their own inner light, those eyes that defied the darkness and kept the eyes of the cave’s human occupants shrouded in shadow. 
The green eyes swept downward, rolled upwards, snapped back to the dirt floor and then in the next beat of Sango’s heart they were locked with her own, held there as if attached with those pink vines of restraint. Sango felt a jolt of alarm and wanted to look away but something was wrong with her because she couldn’t. It wasn’t until Midoriko spoke again that those harrowing eyes showed mercy and released Sango from their attention. 
“We have been sitting vigil over you for quite a while,” Midoriko went on. “You faced a brutal attacker, and when it would have been easier to surrender, you fought to the bitter end. You have an admirable heart, young one.”
The green eyes blinked once in momentary confusion, then widened. The dark pupils, a strange elongated shape even when dilated, absorbed more of the limited cave lighting and constricted into slits. 
The eyes of an animal at night. Mountain cat, deer, monkey, tanuki, wolf. 
Wolf. 
Wolf.
Sango’s fascination - or perhaps it was what Miroku might have termed academic curiosity - was at war with her instincts - instincts of fear, of hatred and revulsion and Father Father they killed you and you killed them and we killed each other and somehow some way they deserved it didn’t they because you wouldn’t have NEVER would have done anything to instigate or provoke you were honorable and you just wanted to keep us safe and they were a threat weren’t they Father they were the threat to us first - 
The youkai girl there on the floor, the girl constrained by terror of the unknown and held prisoner by her own atrophied limbs, seemed to take in the full meaning of Midoriko’s words; her already-pale face drained of its remaining color, and her lips whitened and puckered into a silent grimace. 
“He killed us,” she whispered, and for some strange reason she again chose Sango to trap with that glowing gaze, Sango over anyone else in that dark cave room. Sango again wanted to look away, to hide, to refuse this burden that those green eyes were entreating her to shoulder. No, she-wolf, I will not - cannot - I refuse to bear witness to your pain, look to someone else for solidarity for reassurance because lost or not, alone or not, I am still a woman of Taijiya and you are a monster a monster - 
“I was dead.” The girl’s whisper was paper-thin. The eyes didn’t blink, the furrowed eyebrows didn’t twitch. She’s not telling, she’s asking. Asking me.
You died yes you were dead when I walked in this room there was no doubt in my mind - 
“No,” Sango said, “You’re alive.”

LFDSKJFLSDKFJDSLF THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR SWEET WORDS ABOUT OBLIVION I LOVE YOU @mamabearcat​ 
<3 <3 <3 <3 <3
Reader Qs: #1 and #7!!!
Thanks @omgitscharlie  😘
1: are there any fics that you wanted to leave multiple kudos for, and were disappointed when you could only leave one?
So the word kudos kinda infers just fics on AO3, but because I’ve been a reader for a long time, I have a lot of favourites on FF.net too. So many times I’ve hit that kudos and groaned that I couldn’t hit the like button again (see what I did there?) *snort* Three Inuyasha fandom fics off the top of my head that are really really good, not just fanfic favourite good, but should be published because I’d pay to read them all over again if they disappeared. And all three of the are now on AO3, so you can go kudos them! If I really thought about it, I could probably add at least ten more.
The Call by Kittykatzrq This fic is just so damn beautiful. So lyrical. Reading it feels like listening to a siren’s song. I read this on FF, and nearly every comment I left has me raving about how much I wish I was out bushwalking in nature again. I miss talking to trees here in the city, but I’ll get back to living near a forest as soon as I can. If you feel like you need a holiday in the wilderness read this - you’ll almost believe you’re there.
Oblivion by Meggz0rz @meggz0rz The first thing I read by this writer was her romantic comedy The It Couple, which is also amongst my favourites because it’s endearingly hilarious, but then she started writing Oblivion, which is roughly based on Mulan. One of the tags reads ‘earn your happy ending’ and it’s so so true. Still a WIP but it’s an honest to goodness heart rending jaw dropping gem. You never know where the next punch is coming from, so you can’t even duck.
Metamorphosis by King Baka Somehow, it seems that a lot of fanfic and romance writers are female. King Baka is the only male fanfic writer I know and he’s one of my favourites. I love all his work, but this is probably the one he’s known best for, and the one that stays with you the most. I remember he said in a comment once that he really loved the idea of a hanyou Kagome, but hadn’t really liked any of the fics he’d read like that so far, so he wrote his own. 400K worth. It’s amazeballs - go read it.
If anyone wants my Fairytail top three like this, ask me.
7: would you rather read a plot-focused fic or pwp?
Even though I’m happy to read pwp, I prefer the feelings that having a plot brings. You can kinda short cut that with fanfiction, because the relationship is already implied - we use the characters like paper dolls to act out our own versions of their story, or plonk them in an entirely different universe. If it’s just a one-shot, I’m always up for a bit of pwp. But, if it’s a chapter fic, I need the feels man, and I also need them to be doing something more than just sex. I’m a sap like that.

I was rereading some of my favorite parts from Oblivion and the song “No Time To Die” by Billie Eilish came on and I just felt it was an amazing fit for Kagome feeling betrayed by Okada. Do you have any songs you feel fit, or have even inspired your stories?
HI HELLO THIS IS PROBABLY SUCH A LATE RESPONSE BUT THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ASKING THIS QUESTION!
Music is SO integral to my writing process. I can’t exaggerate how much. It’s gotten to the point where hearing a new song with just the right lyrics and/or vibe will get me super pumped and inspired to write (and I often have to scramble to Shazam the track to add to my Oblivion Spotify Playlist). 
So the way it usually breaks down is I have songs that are more character-centric (I play these when really trying to nail down said character’s POV or dialogue) and songs that are more about a mood (these help with general atmosphere or feelings that I want to get across in a scene). 
I’ll actually be posting TikToks starting today that show the evolution of the characters’ song themes over the course of Oblivion so far, so stay tuned for that! As far as mood songs go, here are a few old standards I keep coming back to for this rollercoaster of a story.
Carpenter Brut - “Turbo Killer” 
I am straight up choreographing a not-yet-seen battle to this. It’s just so damn good.
youtube
Gatsbys American Dream - “Theatre”
Oop my emo phase is showing. BUT THESE LYRICS, YO. Perfectly encapsulates the central character theme I’ve got running through the whole motley crew.
youtube
System of a Down - “Soldier Side”
This song is more astute about the costs of war than I could ever hope to be (but I’m trying my best dang it). One of my goals for this story, from the beginning, was to never shy away from the senselessness of it all, the sheer waste of life, and I think my bois in SOAD absolutely nailed it.
youtube
I of course have more, but I don’t want to make this post any longer than it is lol
Thanks for the ask!

“Which historical figure fascinates you, and why?”
Tumblr media
BENJAMIN. GODDAM. FRANKLIN.
No seriously I have to show y’all this so you know I’m not joking
THIS IS WHAT I’M READING FOR FUN NOW THAT THE SEMESTER IS OVER
Tumblr media
I LOVE BEN FRANKLIN SO MUCH THAT MY WIFE @heyy-ahriii SENDS ME PRESENTS LIKE THIS
Tumblr media
IN THIS HOUSE WE STAN THE BEST FOUNDING FATHER DON’T @  ME HAMILTON FANS
Tumblr media
(The skeleton’s name is Liberty and he’s Ben’s boytoy)
But why, you ask?
Because aside from being the ultimate jack-of-all-trades and GOOD AT ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING, THE JERK, our boi Ben was a master troll before we even knew what a troll was.
As a young man, Ben trolled a rival OUT OF BUSINESS. You heard that right. He trolled a guy so hard that the guy went OUT. OF. BUSINESS.
So basically there was this dude named Titan Leeds (I know, hell of a name) who happened to publish a farmer’s almanac. Standard stuff like “ooh is it gonna be cold? probably idk” and “sunrise times will be approximately this during such-and-such month ok sweet have fun farming all you cool cats and kittens.” 
But someone else was trying to get their OWN almanac off the ground. A young whippersnapper by the name of Benjamin Fucking Franklin (that’s his legal name I swear don’t look it up). And Ben Franklin wanted Poor Richard’s Almanac to be the ONLY almanac on the block. This was a ONE ALMANAC BLOCK, guys.
So what did Franklin do? HE PUBLISHED A FAKE OBITUARY MOURNING THE DEATH OF ONE TITAN LEEDS. Like “oh no he ded y’all, this is so sad, thoughts n prayers 4 the Leeds fam :’(”
Titan Leeds, when informed of this, scrambled to publish a correction in his own printings, basically waving his hands like “GUYS GUYS NO I’M NOT DEAD WTF”
And Ben Franklin is like *deadpan voice* “whoa it’s almost like we can still hear the voice of his ghost on the wind”
Tumblr media
Long story short, we’ve heard of Poor Richard’s Almanac and we’ve DEFINITELY heard of Ben Franklin, but Titan Leeds? LOST TO HISTORY VIA MASTER TROLLING.
Lol poor anon you had no idea what you were doing but I preciate you for asking this <3
WINTER-THEMED ASKS HERE IF YOU WANT TO ASK ME MORE QUESTIONS!
AS A BONUS PLEASE ENJOY MY HALLOWEEN COSTUME WHERE I AM DEFINITELY WEARING THE WRONG STYLE OF WIG BUT IT WAS ALL I COULD FIND IN THE NICK OF TIME (ALSO MY SISTER IS THE AMERICAN BALD EAGLE)
