wow that was intense. i mean can you imagine a 3 year old learning all they'd done in a past life, especially one like Spike's? that's crazy. oh and I loved spike's comment about her being his Tara. omg it was so cute! loved it!!!

Author's Response: I was going for crazy intensity, glad you liked.

Ah! Once again. You've taken a situation that would *squick* a lot of people and fashioned a very compelling tale. I love the dynamic of Billy knowing just that much more than she knows. It's very like Spike's intuition about her. And I love how Buffy senses things - almost on a primal level - which is so true to form for her as well. Just very well done, hon.

Oh, and the description of the kiss was spot on. To worry about spit and brushing their teeth - to approach it kind of like ... an art project! Just perfect for their age.

Author's Response: Thank you! I was very careful with the kiss; I didn't want it to be erotic or anything because they're kids. I projected my own kid-like thought processes into that moment.

even though I hate for them to part, I feel that it was the best for Tara to make this decision. "Buffy" needs to remember on her own. It's for the best. Looking forward to more!

Author's Response: As a parent, I'm sure the moment when they kiss was mixed with a bit of cringing. They're still very much kids and they need to be protected. I always thought Tara would make the best parent out of all the characters on that show.

Soooooooo this is terrific, I'm hooked (never thought I wouldn't be). I didn't expect them to be able to remember so young or at all but I like it. You have great intuition about where each story needs to go and your characters all seem so real. I loved Tara's line about how Billy was conceived, hilarious dry British humor. I can picture her face as she says it. You have an amazing way of bringing every character to life in every story I almost think you just sit back and watch each chapter write itself. Can't wait for chapter 3!

Author's Response: Thank you first off, I think you're pretty terrific, too. The idea of them remembering too early was what made me want to write the follow-up. I would love to say I watch each chapter write itself, but a lot of times it doesn't work that way. Thanks for the wonderful praise!

So sad! SIGH. I love how you're handling this reincarnation. Having Billy be more aware makes sense and having him leave so that Buffy can have a real childhood Is heartwrenching but appropriate. The image of them brushing their teeth was hilarious and adorable:)

Author's Response: Thanks so much for your compliment of my handling. It was the juxtaposition of an old soul with a child's maturity and comprehension that made me want to write this piece. I almost see his knowledge of the past as part of his atonement for that previous life, and the decision he makes to let her find things out in her own way is part of his growth as a character. Glad you liked the tooth brushing. I was just thinking back to that age and how I was obsessed with sex but in a very, very childish way. Like the thought of kissing someone without brushing first would be the height of gross. Thanks for the wonderful comment!

It still pulls. I think I love most that he never questioned it was his Buffy, and that he's got the complete attitude and vocabulary of and adult with a tweens petulant pout! A pretty awesome juxtaposition. They have to do this, but how can anyone question that after defying death, they will find each other later in life? So ready for more. Update soon!

Author's Response: Thank you! It's amazing to hear somebody totally getting all the stuff I wanted to convey. So good to know it's coming across the way I intended. So pleased that you commented and are following the story.

How sad for them! Will they ever reconnect? Can't wait for more!

Author's Response: I have a feeling they may ;) Thanks for the lovely comment!

Ok, that is a biy creepy to have adult mempries in a young body. Loved the update.

Author's Response: Thank you, and I was going for kind of uncomfortable there.I didn't want the kiss to be exploitive, but wanted to convey this sense of danger, really, because Billy has memories a kid shouldn't have.
