💨 Week 2 - Independence & Spirituality 💨

Happy Monday, everyone, it's Week 2 of Kagome's flower fest! Let's add some sunshine to your day with some new blooms, element, and tropes.

Feel free to go back and plant some seeds for Week 1 as well, the garden is open all month.

Don't forget to tag #kagshanakotoba or #khm2024 if you post your work on Tumblr and add it to the Ao3 collection (Kags_HM_2024) as well. Anyone who creates something for this week will get a special banner, and if you post something for each of the four prompts, you'll get a special completion banner at the end.

Please drop some Koga and Kagome fanfic links

I need some inspiration to draw and think reading some might do the trick. Thanks 😊

You got some good recs from Nikkxb. I don't know what your stance is on WIPs. Here are a few more angsty ones.

A Wending Heart by Desseruh | E | WIP

He had left her. The moment she miscarried he shied away and ran. And never came back.

.

Sanctuary by bedsofathelas |T| WIP

She can’t help it. She raises her chin, cups her hands around her lips, and howls.

Koga’s eyes peel tiredly open. The echo of her memory lingers inside his mind, the image of her fading fast. For just a moment-- just one-- he almost lets himself believe he heard her.

Kagome disappears. Koga lives. These two statements, while true in a literal manner, are not entirely accurate. Amending this will take several lifetimes, no small amount of magic, and no less than a miracle. Fortunately for the both of them, they have all three.

.

Moon Mother by Mynightshining |E| WIP - Shameless Plug :)

After years apart, a chance encounter leads Koga to believe the gods have finally blessed him with a second chance. He wasn’t going to mess it up this time. Kagome would be his woman.

.

Zephyr by AshMish111 | T | Complete - A little angsty, but mostly sweet

For Kagome Higurashi, the winds of change blew fast and hard, leaving her tossed about and her world upside down. They were best avoided. But sometimes change comes on the gentle currents of a warm breeze, and before you know it you’ve gone too far down stream to turn back. She should have known; She’d always associated Koga with wind.

Ghost of You by VegetasPrincess |E| Complete

It's not that Kagome is opposed to dating anyone. It's that between long days at the hospital and just generally existing, she hasn't had time.

It's not that Kouga is either. He just wants to be left alone. Very alone. Please maintain a suitable, safe distance. (It might actually be his fault, after all.)

It's unfortunate for them both that he's kind of an asshole and she's definitely not on the right side of alive.

Thank you! I just finished reading Zephyr and it was perfect! I’m starting Moon Mother rn :)

Isn't Zephyr wonderful? I love that one to bits. @mrfeenysmustache is a talent author!

Moon Mother - I am slowly working on, though it hasn't been updated in a while. I hope you enjoy it!

I think about the writers who stopped writing because people went after them.

I think about the new reader who got scared off from commenting because they might say the wrong thing.

I think about the artist who was going to dip their toes in, but saw a blacklist posted and debated in the fandom they so recently were excited about.

I think about all the people who would be here with us, writing meta and squeeing and creating and lifting up creators. Who became ghosts, afraid that to speak up is to stick out your neck.

How many stories won't we get to read, how many pieces of art won't take our breath away, how many comments won't be put in notes or on stories that push us through our blocks... because anger and pettiness and jealousy and aggression are so common in fandoms that so many become ghosts before their time, and the ones who stick through it are still healing from their battle scars?

I mourn all the stories I will never see, all the friends I will never make, all the headcanons that will never bring stars to my eyes.

And I hope that all those who went quiet before they could speak will find a place to be safe, so that one day I may hear their voice.

SessKag - I'm a sucker for when Sesshomaru touches her hair 😍 or Kagome snuggling with MokoMoko.

So, I almost posted the finished piece I did for you for the hair prompt, but when I went to answer this, I couldn’t not do one with MokoMoko. They were super fun to do! Hope you enjoy!

Anonymous asked:

Why do you think Peeta doesn't talk to Katniss between age 11/12 (the bread scene) until after the reaping? Thank you

I think the answer, in part, lies in this exchange from Mockingjay. Peeta has told Katniss he remembers the bread:

"We were outside at the end of the day. I tried to catch your eye. You looked away. And then...for some reason, I think you picked a dandelion." I nod. He does remember. I have never spoken that moment aloud. "I must have loved you a lot." "You did." My voice catches and I pretend to cough. "And did you love me?" he asks. I keep my eyes on the tiled floor. "Everyone says I did. That's why Snow had you tortured. To break me."

Peeta pretty consistently shows that he engages in his relationship with Katniss with her consent to the degree that is possible at the time. The Games complicate this dynamic, of course, and so her consent comes through being compelled to respond to his declaration and the audience's expectations, but at the same time, she is attracted to Peeta and likes him/his company. For things in their control, however, we have Peeta saying things like "Remember, we're supposed to be madly in love, so it's all right to kiss me anytime you feel like it" and asking her if being friends in CF would work for her. Katniss describes their sleeping arrangement as "let[ting] him into my bed," and on the rooftop when Peeta wants to freeze the moment he says, "if you'll allow it." After the QQ interview, one of the couple times he doesn't seek her consent first, he asks her if he has anything to apologize for. Even here above, he's looking for what she feels. There's a lot going on in his mind and if she said yes who knows if he would have believed her, but it's another example of Peeta searching to know Katniss.

So what was Peeta waiting for all of those years? Katniss's consent, or at least an invitation.

He says he tried to catch her eye. He probably saw this as a moment they might connect. She might give him a smile or hold his gaze, and he would know it was okay to approach her, to say something. But instead, she looks away. Her focus is on a dandelion, not him. He has no idea what's really going on in her head, so he takes this as her way of saying "I'm not interested in talking to you."

And Katniss says she catches his eyes flitting away from her. It could be a boy catching a glimpse of his crush, but he could have been trying to catch her eye and when she doesn't respond with a friendly expression, he moves on. Thinks, maybe some other time. Only he runs out of time and they're brought together by the Games.
