Happy birthday @heynikkiyousofine! I hope you're having a wonderful day today!

[heynikkiyousofine]

Omg it’s so cute! Now I need to make an Inuyasha cake….. thank you so much girl!💕

[heynikkiyousofine]

Crowned Jewel

Prologue:

Long ago, the Jewel of Four Soul came into existence and with it, a prophecy was born. “It shall be, when she who protects all the earth’s creatures destroys the darkest of evil, balance will return to the land.” Since then, powerful priestesses have protected the Jewel, only for evil to grasp at its power time and time again. Sacrificing herself, the last one took it with her to the next world until the most powerful of them all would be born, the one the prophecy proclaimed.

Chapter One: Flee

Summary: “There is no escape from the violence of the ones who came before us.”

Screams filled the night air. Mothers crying out for their children, men searching for their wives, the sound of blood squelching as bodies were torn apart. Everywhere she looked, demons slaughtered her people, the bodies littering the ground as she dashed into the Great Forest. Pushing back her nausea, she continued to run, adrenaline pumping through her veins. There has to be somewhere I can hide! Surely they know the dangers of The Darkness and would not dare follow me.

Happy Inu-Spiration 2024!

I was teamed up with @brain-rot-hour this year for @inu-spiration and we are bringing you some fun InuKag and SessSan shenanigans. Enjoy!

The Feudal Era: Adventures in BabySitting

The morning summer sun warmed his skin, alerting Inuyasha that today would be another hot one and he was more than ready to begin their journey to the beach. Unsure of why his wife wanted to go in the middle of the hottest time of the year was beyond him, but he was never one to tell her no. Even more after she returned from the future. However, they were traveling a long distance today and he really didn’t want to have to carry her and their bags in the blistering heat.

“Kagome, you’ve gone over the brats’ schedule with her five times already. I think she’s got it. Isn’t that right, Sango?” He arched his brow at the demon slayer, their gazes meeting and the only answer he received in response was her shrug. Sango knew all too well about keeping kids overnight, and so did they, he might add. He couldn’t keep track of how many times they watched her kids while she went on a trip with his brother.

“Fine, fine.” His wife gave him one of her award winning smiles and all his irritation disappeared, her brown eyes sparkling as the rising sun hit them just right. He would never admit it, but he couldn’t imagine ever falling in love with another color for the rest of his life. “Where is Sesshomaru?”

“Oh, he’s giving his farewell to Rin and Kohaku before they leave to head north on another demon hunt.”

“She’s really enjoying learning all about it and I’m a little shocked to see His Royal Fluffiness be so calm about it.” Kagome winked, leaning in close, so if the daiyoukai were to suddenly appear, he wouldn’t hear her.

“Oh, at first he was anything but calm about it. You know how when he’s especially irritated, his mokomoko gets all fuzzy, like a cat’s tail? It wouldn’t settle for days the first time Rin left the village. I had to force him to stay in the village so he wouldn’t go after them.” Sango loudly whispered back, their grins wide on their faces.

“Is Sango whispering stories again?” Said man appeared next to Inuyasha, his face stoic despite the teasing mood in the air.

“Yeah, she’s telling Sango about the first time Rin went demon slaying.” 

“Hn.”

Rolling his eyes, Inuyasha ignored the weird bond between one of his closest friends and his brother, still not used to the affectionate way Sesshomaru acted towards her. Rin was one thing and even Kagome was another. They were simply family. Sango was a new battleground he had yet to figure out about Sesshomaru. Stepping towards the chittering women, he snatched their overstuffed bag and swung it over his shoulder, slipping his wife’s hand into his.

“Alright love, time to go. See ya both in three days. If we pass Miroku on our travels, I’ll remind him about being back in time for the twins' birthdays at the end of the summer.”

“Thanks Inuyasha, have fun now you two!” Sango waved them off without another word and headed towards her hut, the sound of six children getting up for the day filling the air.

Despite the day being warmer than he initially expected, they made it to the beach in record time, the sun falling beneath the horizon as his toes sank into the sand. Their campsite was hidden behind some trees, so if any other travelers were to pass by, they wouldn’t be able to spot them unless they actively searched for them. Holding onto Kagome’s hand a little tighter than normal, so she didn’t slip as they walked towards the ocean, Inuyasha couldn’t stop the smile from forming.

“Happy that we made it?” Kagome hummed, her cheeks flushed from being out in the sun all day.

“Yeah, it was a quick trip, but I always forget just how insane this view is. Why don’t we come more often?”

“Because we have three kids, all under the age of 6 and getting time away from them is hard enough.” She laughed, the sound drifting across his ears and easing any unspoken worries. He wondered how after six years, she was still able to calm him with such a simple action. “Besides, while I think the kids would have fun here, I would very much like to keep this a place for just the two of us.”

He nodded, the two of them stopping to watch the remainder of the sunset in silence, the waters flowing past their ankles. Arms wrapped around his life, Inuyasha couldn’t help but send a silent prayer up to the heavens, giving his thanks for bringing Kagome back into his life once more. 

Once the moon lit up the night sky, he simply scooped up wife in his arms, sealed his mouth to hers and made his way back to their makeshift bed to show her just how much he appreciated her.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Three days had passed and soon the couple were ready to return to the chaos that was their life, the summer day turning into a cool, rainy one the closer they journeyed home. Inuyasha could only imagine having six kids cooped up in a house all day on one like this was probably not the greatest, especially if the way the scent of rain permeated the air, alerting him that it wasn’t going to stop anytime soon.

Careful to not step in mud, he rounded the bend in the path with his wife at his side, Sango’s home coming into his view. From where they stood, all seemed normal and he couldn’t hear anything happening in the house, but he was sure that it was pure hectic chaos inside. He briefly wondered if Sesshomaru stayed to help or go hide in a tree somewhere, trying to stay dry. The image of a soaking wet daiyoukai made him snicker quietly.

As they neared the home, he could hear the echoes of children’s laughter, still unable to make out any definite sounds with the heavy pouring rain. Pulling aside the mat, he and Kagome froze, mouths’ gaping at the chaotic scene before them.

To his left, his oldest Moroha, currently had Hisui pinned down on the mat, her cackle causing him to wince just a bit. She had managed to get a small garden snake into the hut and was practically shoving it down the poor kid’s throat, calling him a “fraidy cat”. To his right, the older twins had backed Shippo into a corner, the kit hiding his tail protectively because Inuyasha knew all too well how much the girls love to pull it.

A soft hissed caught his attention and glancing over Kagome's still shocked face, he noticed the large pot boiling over into the fire pit, effectively burning whatever Sango had decided to make for lunch. To be truthfully honest, he couldn’t really tell what it was. In the far corner, near the back door he had helped Miroku install so it was easier to get to the stream behind their hut, his youngest lay in a pile of blankets, happily snoozing away. The only thing that seemed really out of place, well more like into full on tantrum mode, was his middle child  wailing in Sango’s arms as she glared at them.

It took him a full minute to realize she was actually giving the dirty look to the full blooded youkai sitting in the corner of rafters overhead, Sesshomaru’s face in a full on pout. Unable to hold back his laughter, he roared, doubling over, catching the sweetest of giggles his wife made beside him.

“What the he-”, Inuyasha paused, wary of little brats repeating his words, before wiping away the tears from his eyes, “Why are you up there, Sesshomaru?”

“Your pup has sticky fingers.”

“She’s three! Of course her fingers are probably sticky.” Kagome laughed once more before turning to console their child, Sango joining them and placing her hands on her hips.

“Lord Fluffy up there decided he didn’t like sticky fingers when Izayoi wanted to play with his hair. Before I could soothe her, Haruto picked the perfect time to spit up the milk you left for him and it just so happened to distract Sesshomaru enough that Izayoi sank her fingers into his mokomoko. I’ve never seen him so offended, except for a few times battling Naraku.” She sighed, shaking her head, and called out, “How long are you planning on staying up there?”

“Either until all of the children’s hands are clean or the rain stops.”

“Good luck with that.” Inuyasha snorted, turning to rescue the poor snake and Hisui from his daughter.

Do you have any suggestions for arranged marriage/arranged engagement inukag fan fics where they may not necessarily be in love at the start but they learn more about each other and eventually fall in love? ☺️

Hi there, anon! We previously posted an arranged marriage list, but were able to find a few more for you below.

Enjoy!

Jewel of my Heart by MomsDarkSecret (T)

Kagome inherits the Shikon Jewel, but circumstances lead her mother to offer Kagome’s hand in marriage to the highest bidder. Trouble ensues and Kagome finds herself facing the prospect of an alternate suitor: Inuyasha.

--

Completely Yours by KikyoHater4L (M)

Kagome’s life was perfect. She was a daughter of a respected Earl, living a comfortable life. She was supposed to marry a Duke she had took liking of, until her farther decided a different life for her.

Now Kagome was living as a concubine of a Prince. She hated herself and the new tittle she had to live with, but what happens when she falls in love with her owner?

--

Meant To Be by Enjeru's Light (T)

Sango is a princess and its time for her to go meet her husband to be. Sango, however, has other plans. She forces Kagome her lady in waiting to switch places with her. Now Kagome is forced to meet Sango's foulmouthwouldbe fiancee...Or is he...?

--

Another's Name But My Heart by Lady of the Ink (K+)

--

Terms and Conditions by @heynikkiyousofine (M)

After the disastrous day I had, there were two things I was certain of. One, Inuyasha Taisho, the country’s most eligible bachelor, was going to be my fiancé, and eventual husband. Two, we might kill each other before we ever make it to the altar.

--

There's Only Ever Been You by @neutronstarchild (T)

Nothing could possibly be worse for Inuyasha than standing there, on his wedding day, waiting for whoever it was that his parents had decided he would marry. Didn’t they know that he had been in love since he was small? Well… the dream of seeing her again has died, replaced with whoever this stranger is. That is, until his bride raises her veil…

--

Arranged Hearts by greyeyedrune (T)

Inuyasha is a rich lord's son, and Kagome is a nobleman's daughter. Because of their positions, they are forced to participate in a festival designed to help the wealthy find matches. Think Feudal speed-dating. Neither one is happy about it, but it may end up being an experience that they'll both remember.

--

The Thorn Flower by Marishaten (M)

Forced to marry by circumstances, can love blossom between the two?

[inukag-archive]

Hi inuarchive!! do you any stories, where kagome is the badass pirate and Inuyasha a stowaway or prisoner???

Hi anon, thank you for the ask! This was a toughie because, as you probably have already discovered, most InuKag pirate AUs have Inuyasha in the role of the feared pirate and Kagome as the noblewoman who gets kidnapped.

That being said, we did find two stories that fit your request exactly! They are at the top of the list below, and we included other types of InuKag pirate fics after a divider.

Happy reading!

[Pirate Kagome, Captured Inuyasha]

The Captain and the Hanyo by @goshinote (T)

A story told in snippets and drabbles.

--

[Pirate Inuyasha, Noblewoman Kagome]

Shikuro: A Caribbean Fairy Tale by Inuma Asahi De (M)

Seadogs by jellophish (M)

When Lady Kagome is stolen away by pirates, will one of the most feared pirate captains of the 7 Seas hurt her? Or possibly need her help to keep a certain jewel safe? As they travel the seas, romance blooms, but what is the price?

[mamabearcatfanart]

Inuyasha and Kagome, Santa Monica Crepes, Takeshita Street, Harajuku - tokyofashion.com

A different future…

When Inuyasha went into the meido to rescue Kagome, he didn’t have any thoughts about what might happen, other than needing to find her. And when he did find her, waiting for him in the darkness, he was hit all at once with a complicated mixture of love, relief and exhaustion. He never wanted to let her go again. Ever.

So when they came up through the well in modern Tokyo, and Kagome was embraced by her family, he was right there with her, hugging all of them too. He was overwhelmed by the emotions of what they’d just been through, and Mama Higurashi had always looked out for him. He trusted her. And he still couldn’t bear to let go of Kagome’s hand.

They slept together in her small pink bed that night, comforting each other with soft words and soft kisses, so happy that they had found each other in the darkness. So thankful, so relieved, so tired.

They slept, Kagome not fearing the darkness because how could she, with Inuyasha right there by her side, and Inuyasha content, because with his nose buried in her hair, he couldn’t lose her comforting scent.

It was only after breakfast the next day, when they decided to go to check on the others, that they found the well had closed. There would be no going back.

It was a difficult transition for both of them. They missed Shippou, Sango, Miroku and Kirara desperately, and there were many tears, Inuyasha’s silent and hidden, and Kagome’s loud and heartfelt.

Kagome had to adjust to the regular routine of highschool, still worrying about math tests, but worrying about Inuyasha more. They talked about what he might like to do, and whether he should try regular schooling, but the only place he felt comfortable was the shrine, with the Goshinboku and his Tessaiga nearby, and the small patch of trees behind the house all that was left of his forest.

So, after talking to Mama and Grandpa, they decided that perhaps Inuyasha could learn how to manage the shrine and take on a lot of the duties that were becoming too difficult for Grandpa.

Mama helped him to apply for some correspondence courses in business management, and no one was more surprised than himself when he found that he was actually okay at it. It was just a modern day way of protecting and providing for his pack, and Kagome was so proud of him, he couldn’t help wanting to please her by doing his best. When things got to much, he would go and sit in the Goshinboku and feel the wind, letting it carry his worries away.

As the months wore on, he became more comfortable in Kagome’s world. He found clothes that he was comfortable in, and learned to wear shoes, even though he preferred being barefoot. He learned how to fix things around the shrine, and taught himself how to carve omamori magatama beads to sell to visitors alongside the paper fortunes.

He still missed the forest, but he had a family who cared about him, and that made up for a lot. Kagome removed the subjugation beads from around his neck, and together they refashioned them into two bracelets, so they could wear one each - a memory of the past and a promise for the future.

Inuyasha got a few hints from Mama and Grandpa about how to ‘court’ Kagome, and on Saturday afternoons they often took the train to Harajuku Station, wandering up and down Taketshita Street, looking at all the different shops and people and pausing to buy snacks at Calbee Plus, or indulge Kagome’s sweet tooth at Santa Monica crepes.

In Harajuku, it was easy for Inuyasha to blend in - his differences here just made him fit in more. No one glanced twice at his golden eyes with slitted pupils, or long white hair. No one commented on his slightly longer arms or larger hands.

He wore a hat and kept his claws mostly out of sight, but he suspected even his ears wouldn’t have got a second glance here. It was amazing how strange humans could be - he’d spent his entire life being ostracised for being different, and here in this place, the more different you looked the better.

He was happy. Holding Kagome’s hand while she ate a strawberry banana crepe, thinking of their plans for the future while they strolled along. With Mama’s help, he would support her at the shrine while she studied nursing after high school. They’d already discussed getting married, and Jiji had given his blessing for them to build their own little house on the shrine grounds, for just Kagome and him, hidden in amongst the trees that reminded him of the forest where he had grown up.

His life had changed so much since he met her. Perhaps this was not the life he would have chosen. But this different future was infinitely better than anything he could have imagined. Because he had Kagome. And she had him. And that was worth everything.

For Fanfiction, it will be defined as: Stories that have developed a believable romance between Inu no Taisho and Izayoi (aka Inuyasha's parents). "Believable" is subjective, and it is up to those nominating/voting to draw their own line on that quantifier and vote their "Best". This includes canon universe and AU/AR settings.

For Fanart, it will be defined as: Any romantic depiction of Inu no Taisho and Izayoi (aka Inuyasha's parents).

The original Best Romance categories will remain, so all other pairings, including LGBTQ+, can be nominated into that category. All other pairings will be up for voting again next term.

We will officially be back in full swing May 1st! We will still be around in case you have questions or concerns, but feel free to take this time to read new fanfiction and find new fanart. We strongly encourage everyone to review/comment/reblog so to spread the love of this fandom around. 

Want to stay immersed in the Inuyasha fandom? Head on over and join our Discord server! Or follow @inuyasha-events​ to stay up-to-date on all the current and upcoming fandom events!

As the day gets closer to the start of the second term of 2024, we will be keeping everyone in the loop when it comes to changes and updates. Thank you all again for making this such a wonderful experience! See you soon!

Hello! I don't know if this would be appropriate, but is there any good AU where Inu is a playboy, a womanizer at first? I just like this kind of trop 😅 But I'm new in this fandom and don't know any yet.

Hi anon, and welcome to the fandom! Don't worry, there's no shame in liking a certain trope. The Inukag Archive is a judgement-free zone!

Playboy!Inuyasha was a pretty popular trope on FF.net at one time, so we were able to find a decent amount of stories for you. Hope you find something you enjoy below!

Happiness by @witchygirl99 (M)

Inuyasha is an unobservant rich bastard. He has an OCD assistant and a perverted financial planner. Enter Kagome, a woman who has her own rules on how to live. He wants sex. She wants happiness. Well, that's only what they'll admit...

--

A deal with a demon by @ajoy3fanfics (M)

In order to save her family's shrine from debt, Kagome reluctantly agrees to marry Inuyasha, the wealthy son of her grandfathers late friend. Inuyasha is far from thrilled about the match. According to his fathers will, he must marry if he wishes to gain his inheritance. Is this couple doomed from the start, or can they manage to find wedded bliss?

--

Aesthetic by Autumn Dragon (T)

 I was cocky, gorgeous, and one of Japan's Most Wanted bachelors. At first, all I wanted was to get into her pants. Now, even I have to admit that she was different from the others. Very different. Damn, I love a challenge.

Sequel: Houdini's Affair (T)

--

Break Me by ShadowBluebell (M)

It was a simple trip to the store. Saving a playboy's life from a hit-and-run had been a bonus. No big deal. Until said playboy shows up at her door, intent on showing his appreciation… in his own way. Let the game of seduction begin. 

--

A Little Dessert by @witchygirl99 (M)

Kagome is a waitress who always looks after Inuyasha's table. Inuyasha is a player with a new girl every week. He likes the restaurant and the service Kagome gives. Secretly? He doesn't really come for the dessert, unless you think of it that way.

--

The Bet by Mesmerizing Love (M)

He is a player. He always thought that girls were toys that are used for only one thing. Until he met a virgin who he desperately wanted to break, so he made a bet that he would, but she was so hard to break and he never realized that he actually would fall in love instead… 

--

Cheaters by @inunanna (T)

Everyone in the office knew Kagome and Inuyasha were having a not-so-secret affair. They weren't EXACTLY wrong... (Not a cheating fic)

--

If It Hadn't Been For Love by Reckless Dreamer Yuna (M)

Inuyasha? He's a player. A damn good one at that. But one girl he can't break through to, is Kagome. But it's not easy, trying to bed her, while trying not to fall in love with her. What will happen if he gets his heart broken again?

--

Dead Famous by Torenza (M)

The most wanted prize bachelor is up for grabs... but the one who gets him is the only one who doesn’t want to keep him...

--

Til Death Do Us Part by Jade Catseye (M)

Kagome hates Inuyasha. Inuyasha hates Kagome. What happens when the sexy playboy and fiery schoolgirl are forced to undergo holy matrimony? 

--

A Southern Cinderella by DeletedAccountNotChangingMind (T)

Who cares if he partied a little, why should his parents not like that he liked women, so he partied, had sex, and races fast cars, why should he be punished for doing so. And why should he have to be sent to a farm to gain 'work ethic? Honestly?

--

Broken Hearts by Jezzie Lynn (M)

Inuyasha is a cruel playboy. Kagome gave him a chance and they stay together. But Kagome gets raped and finds she's pregnant. Who is the father? And is someone trying to kill her and her friends?

--

The Life of a Devil by SnowShadowuser (T)

Kagome, an assassin, finds out that she has only two months to live thanks to a mysterious and deadly virus...willingly, she takes on her last job; to find and to kill the notorious playboy, known as the American secret agent - Inuyasha...

--

A Player's Heart Recast by inukag-lover1600 (T)

If you fell in love with a 'womanizer' what are you to do? Simple. Just change him. InuxKag MirxSan KouxAya

You will need to sign into Google in order to vote, and you will be allowed one vote per category. Please note: we will be recording email addresses and media platform names to preserve the integrity of the voting process!

At the end of the Google Form, voters will have a chance to voice which pairing they would like to see represented in the next term. As seen with the regular roulette categories, pairings represented will change each term based on participation.
