May I say: FOR THE WIN?

Very hot, plus very in-character. Liked the line about horny-goat weed.

I have to agrue with you. Yomi is given a bad rap but I don't believe he is anywhere near the villian that people make him out to be. Considering what Kurama did to him threatening Shiori isn't that major but I'm of the opinion that he wouldn't have actually harmed her. He doesn't seem like the type to harm the defenseless. Though he does seem like a man of his word. It's nice to know that there are some body of the same opinion. I only read 2 or 3 fics up here where Yomi is the good guy or even caring to Kurama! But anyway...

It was a very interesting story though in some parts I couldn't understand what was going on.

You may have just done a majority of the work necessary to convert me into a Yomi fan. This was lovely -- and I especially did enjoy the bits about scent, and Yomi being blind, it was nifty to see touch emphasized to this degree. I tend to find sex scenes a little too visually described sometimes. As a final cap on the goodness, their characters were extremely well-defined, and it's nice to see something that has a subtle, oblique point to it besides all the marvelous sex. ^^

Concerning Yomi, you're right on target. A lot of people seem to have missed the fact that it seemed Kurama and Yomi had solved their differences. At least I get this impression when I watch the episode about Kurama's fight with Shiguri (sp?) in the royal tournament. At the end it was Yomi who had reached the wounded, weary Kitsune first.

I have read a lot of your works, thoth. I found that out when I went to your profile page. I'm just not reading too much right now, because I'm concentrating on finishing my story up. But this one was a nice break for me. :o) Now,... i'll get back to work on my story after I get some food in my gut. lol.

Oh very nice. I enjoyed how you noted that Yomi would be sensitive to the sound of thunder. The "silk knot" was also a nice touch in both cases. Definitely lived up to my expectations.

While I'm not a very big fan of Yomi (underdog in the series or no), I have to say that I really did like this little story! I think you did justice to the pairing and enjoyed how Yomi had to experience everything with every sense but that of sight!

If you were aiming for senusality, you nailed it. I am one of the YOMI NEEDS MORE LOVE authors, and this was - plain and simple - fucking hot. Both Kurama and Yomi's characterizations were spot on, I enjoyed Kurama calling Yomi's name, and the blindfold was a nice ironic touch. Plus, I find scents, and the description thereof, to be very erotic in a story. There is so much memory linked to scents, and authors often forget to use that sense when writing.

Loved it. There needs to be more Yomi/Kurama in the world (and I need to get off my ass and finish Unrequited already)
