If you can't strictly adhere to the day's given theme of Canon VS AU, that's all right. Whatever you create inspired by these prompts is welcome!

If any of the day's themes has you scratching your head, please have a look at the SessKag Week Theme Breakdown.

Tagging

You can use either #skw2024 or #sesskagweek2024.

Remember also to use a daily tag to indicate for which day’s prompt the work is for! (e.g. #skw2024d1 for Day 1)

~~

All kind of fanworks are welcome!

Fan fics, fan art, edits, moodboards & gifsets, playlists, podfics etc. Anything you’re inspired to create! The only requirement is that the work should be new.

If you’re not a creator, SessKag week is an excellent time to show appreciation to your favourite creators! You can make fic rec lists or reblog your favourite fan art or make shout-out post to thank the creators you like! And of course, you can always comment on the new fanworks created for the SessKag week and/or reblog them to share with others! 💕

~~

If you have any questions at all, please don’t hesitate to ask!

For those who post on AO3, there is a collection for SessKag Week 2024!

I hope you all have fun with this event! I’m really looking forward to seeing everyone’s creations! 💙

Sesskag week modern AU

A Inuyasha Sesskag Modern AU Fanfiction for @sesskag-week event Sesskag week 2024 day 1 Canon Compliant vs Modern AU.

Kagome ask her co-workers and friends from high school Eri, Yuka, and Ayumi, "Are you sure about this, girls? Asking our boss out for a date is a stupid move and there is a risk I get fired." and Ayumi said to her friend, "C'mon, Kagome. You has been single for the past months since Hojo dump you. You should try your luck with Mr. Sesshomaru, since he is handsome, after all." Kagome said, "O-Okay... I will try asking him." and she enter Sesshoumaru's office as he look up to Kagome from his desk and ask her, "Miss Higurashi, what do you want?" and Kagome ask him, "Can you go out with me after work, sir?" Sesshoumaru did some thinking and then reply, "Very well. I'm free tonight." and Kagome said, "Thank you, sir." and left with a smile on her face.

Sesshoumaru was traveling to a village where his Hanyo half brother Inuyasha would be located at so he would ask him about the location of their father's sword when Sesshoumaru hear a scream, "Help!" and he turn his head to see a black hair human girl being chased by a female centipede demon with the upper body of a human woman with long black hair and the lower body of a centipede. With quick speed, Sesshoumaru killed the centipede demon with his claws while the human fall to the ground by roots of a tree. The young girl that Sesshoumaru saved from the demon was wearing strange green and white clothes as she look up from the ground at Sesshoumaru and said to him, "Thank you. My name is Kagome Higurashi. Can you tell me where am I? I was in the city of Tokyo, and I found myself in these woods." Sesshomaru has never hear of this Tokyo before.

[chierafied]

Summary:

If his meeting hadn’t run late, he would have taken the earlier train like he’d fully planned on doing. Was it happenstance that Sesshoumaru had boarded the same train Kagome had been on? Or was it destiny? Had being in the right place at the right time been pure chance, or the first fateful step in some foretold chain of events that leads him here, standing in Kagome’s bathroom, while she patches him up — literally?

Notes:

Inspired by this Tumblr post. For SessKag Week 2024, Day 5: All Human AU. Prompt: Coincidences

Excerpt:

The metallic tang of blood that’s hung thick in the small, enclosed space of the bathroom is rapidly ceding to the sharp chemical sting of the disinfectant. Sesshoumaru’s nose crinkles and his lip curls at the offensive assault to his senses. Kagome’s dark glare pins him down like a lance. “Not a word from you,” she says, the words impressively close to a growl. He obeys, keeping silent. But quirks up one very loud eyebrow. Her ire is a fascinating thing to witness. To him, she has always been the overly cheerful, chatty girl who’d had the questionable taste of befriending his idiot half-brother. Not someone he’s been particularly interested in getting to know. But then, he has never seen her like this: bold and bossy and utterly without fear. The narrowed blue eyes blazing with anger, like a power crackling within, barely contained. Now, this is a fascinating version of the young woman he’s previously dismissed. One that stirs his curiosity.

[sereia1313]

So, because I'm insane, listing all my fics individually isn't going to work, so here's a list of all my series instead! Unless otherwise stated, the main pairing is SessKag. All links lead to Ao3, but you can find me on Dokuga and FFnet as well. Alphabetized, alliterated, colour coordinated. Were you expecting anything less?

SessKag Week 2024 Theme Breakdown

*

You'll find the week's prompts here!

*

Day 1

Canon Compliant

Canon compliant fics follow the canon exactly and don't alter the setting or canonical plot events too drastically. An example of a canon compliant fic would be for example a retelling of a specific scene from another character's point of view.

VS

Modern AU

Modern AU is a fic that takes place in a contemporary setting instead of the work's canonical setting. In SessKag, modern AU fics are typically set in modern day Japan. They can either still feature youkai and miko, or be all human AUs as well.

*

Day 2

Canon divergence

Canon divergence fics follow canon up to a point. They take place in the canon setting and may follow the canonical plotline fairly closely, before they began to spin off to their own direction. "What if Kikyo didn't die?" "What if Kagome never went back to the Feudal era?" "What if Kagome met Sesshoumaru first?" are all types of canon divergent fic scenarios.

VS

Historical AU

A fic that takes place in an alternative setting that's in a different time period than the canonical setting. For SessKag, this could be anything any other time period than Sengoku era and up to the 1990s. SessKag in Heian era? Meiji era? Regency England? Any other time is a fair game.

*

Day 3

Missing Episode

Missing episode, or a missing scene fic, is canon compliant fic that is set between specific canon events, but it is a moment that's never actually shown to the audience.

VS

Fusion AU

Fusion AUs are types of crossovers, where you take the plot and/or setting of Fandom 1 and the characters from Fandom 2 and mash it all up. If you see a fic described as "SessKag Star Wars AU" or "SessKag Pride and Prejudice AU", those are type of fusion fics.

*

Day 4

Pre-Canon

Pre-canon, or pastfic, is a fic that is set before the events of the canon. It could be a flashback or delve into the character's backstory.

VS

Fantasy/Scifi AU

Fantasy or Scifi AU could be any kind of AU that incorporates fantasy or scifi elements in it. It could be a fairy tale retelling, some kind of a Isekai scenario, a Fae/Werewolf/Vampire AU or a zombie apocalypse.

*

Day 5

Canon Reunion

Broadly, this could mean any canonical reunion scene. With SessKag, though, the type of canon divergent modern era reunion fics where Sesshoumaru and Kagome meet again in modern day after Kagome never returns to the Feudal era are popular, so I had those in mind when I chose this theme.

VS

All human AU

All human AU is an AU in which the characters that are not human in the canon (e.g. Sesshoumaru) are human. High school or College AUs are a popular type of an all human AU. An all human AU does not have to be set in a modern day, however.

*

Day 6

Post Canon

Post canon or a futurefic is a fic that takes place after the canon has ended, usually several years later.

VS

Royalty AU

Royalty AU is a type of an AU story in which one or several characters are a member of a royal family. Whether the story takes place in a historical, fantasy or contemporary setting is up to the writer. Tropes that go hand in hand with this type of AU are arranged marriage or bodyguard fics, for example.

Promises

rated: T

[wowtalesofadventurers]

Sesskag week 2024 shelter

A Inuyasha fanfiction for @sesskag-week event Sesskag week 2024 day 7 free day and day 6 post canon.

Sesshoumaru was surprised to see Kagome outisde the gate of his palace on this rainy night as she ask him, "Can I come in?" and Sesshoumaru let her in.
