His Inner Beast - SK minicomic

Sesshoumaru is no match for his naughty subconscious.

---

This is just me poking some light good-natured fun at the whole "Sesshoumaru conversing with his Beast" thing that appears way too often in fanfiction, a fact which totally confounds me since we have never, ever seen anything like it in the manga (he hardly even talks to himself, let alone his 'selves' ). And if anyone in the Inuyasha cast were to develop multiple personality disorder, it would be Inuyasha himself, because it is Inuyasha who has the two halves. Sesshoumaru is a single complete demon entity.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to rag on people who write the 'Beast' stuff! There's exceptions to every rule, and I have read some lovely fics that play on the beast theme. But it's total fanon, and fanon just generally irks me. I mean, dude. C'mon. Sesshoumaru doesn't have schizophrenia. Thats just silly.

But, that said, while I don't really like it in fanfiction (and again, this is just my personal tastes, thankyou), I think the idea makes for a fun comic. ^_^

I hope the text is readable on this...I wanted the 'Beast's voice to be very disjointed and rough, so I wrote it instead of typed it, but my screen is huge so it may not come out so good on everyone elses.

Sketched in pencil, inked (except where I got lazy) and colored in photoshop with tablet.

And Sesshoumaru and Kagome belong to Rumiko Takahashi, I'm just having fun with them.
