I just got caught up on this story, and I wanted to let you know how much iIm enjoying it! You have such an amazing, complicated, fascinating plot going here, and I'm excited to see where you take it. I can't even imagine the amount of work that goes in to writing a saga like this, and I just want to thank you for sharing it.

I just discovered this story and have been reading it as close to non-stop as real life would allow. Amazing writing, and a fantastic plot! You've incorporated many of the loose thread from the show that were never satisfactorily resolved and tied them into a cohesive and lucid story. Too bad the final two seasons of the show were hijacked for personal catharsis by an unnamed female producer -- the show could have been so much more! Thankfully there are writers like you telling stories like this one to satisfy fans like me. Great story, and I'm certainly looking forward to updates. Thanks for writing!

Wow.. I haven't reviewed this story before because well to be truthful I was just to busy reading it. I haven’t been able to tear myself away from it long enough to type a review.
What can I say? I pride myself on being able to say that I have read pretty much everything Spuffy related since my obsession with them started a little over three years ago. I have read in that time some fantastic fiction but this story?... well to say it's one of the best would be an understatement.
The Spuffy interaction alone would have been enough to deserve that comment but the scope and intricacy of the whole thing has just blown my mind. No easy feat believe me.
After reading nothing but Spuffy for such a long time I find myself pretty much able to predict what is going to happen next but with yours I was at a complete loss, I had no idea what would happen from chapter to chapter and that after the amount of fanfic that has been written about our favourite couple is amazing.
Normally I like to complement a writer on the plot or characterisation other times it's the love scenes or the believability of the characters interactions, occasionally it's the skill of the writer to make sense out of unusual pairings or the flow of the words, but with this particular fic I couldn’t begin to pick what part I liked best. You are a phenomenal writer and this story embodies all of those things.
I will be watching for updates with greedy impatience as I find that your twist on the Buffy verse is one that I am enjoying even more than the original show.

Awe, happy Buffy (waffles and ice cream and Spike who feeds her). Faith and Willow? If I remember correctly when these two meet Willow was a harmless girl and now she is a powerful witch. ~ Yeah, that's Spike. Dance with danger. Not the average vampire. ~ Loved Buffy teasing Spike. And Sam set up the bomb... And so it begins.... ~ Loved the chapter :)

The scene between Spike and Buffy when they woke up was probably one of the sweetest I've ever read (and I've read quite a few! though I did have one insane moment when I feared someone had kidnapped Connor...) Oh gosh, I guess this is the beginning of the end! Oh la la! I *can't* wait!

Great chapter, on the edge of my seat over it. Can't you give Lawson someone to be with? Having a Sire is good and well, he still needs someone to 'live' with, love and just be with.

Great story!

And so it begins. . . .

OMG!! I am so excited!! Does this ever have to end? :( I am always just so shocked at how vested I am in these characters. There is no, "yeah, i like her/him fine." It is extreme in every sense of the word from the love of the couples to the distaste of the antagonists. It is always compelling and never contrived.

Sam has so won me over. I hate to gues what happens but I will be *devestated* if he isn't as genuine as he seems.

Faith is quite the contemplative little slayer now, isn't she. I like that about her. It seems almost as if age and cicumstances has tempered her some and I like how she is exploring her vulnerabilites instead of overcompensating. You saved another tosses aside character. Bravo!

Favs:
***
“You’re adorable though. Look right cute with your cheeks all full of food.” He sauntered into the kitchen, his fingers snagging the spoon from her. Digging the utensil in, Spike fed her more ice cream. “I’m glad you’re eatin’. Need to do more of it.” - I love it when the do coupley things now as if it is something they have always done. It comes naturally now and I am so in love with them.
***
Spike had to have known what kind of an effect this would cause, and was no doubt acting on it. - I KNEW it wasn't just me!! The bite WAS hot!!
***
Tara padded into the kitchen on bare feet, her quiet voice barely disturbing the silence. “Leave it Spike, I’ll get it in the morning. You guys go ahead.” - I have no idea why this struck such a cord with me other than the fact that I just love how much they operate as a family unit now. Those little shots of just plain homeyness makes me smile. I am such a sap.

Okay...Parting shots:
Harmony? Ew.
Anya/Xander estranged even in repose? Good. Creep.
Sam rigging a bomb? Bloody effing genius.

Cheers!
Nina

well the lines have been drawn and now we wait. I am glad they had a bit of reprieve from the crazyness. It was nice to see them just being one huge family so to speak. Your Faith is so on the money. You write her so well. I enjoyed her musings. Sam's too. He is going to be a good ally. Oh Christ *laughs* Harmony the wondervamp. Jeezus if they made BarbieVampire,Harmony would the model LMAO. So like her to just take what she wants when she wants it. Leave it to Angel though to come think he can be all he for her. *rolls eyes*...So now we wait for the first "shot" so to speak to be fired and war shall be waged. LOVE IT ALL MORE MORE MORE MORE!!!!!!!!!!!

And....BOOM! Hee hee hee...that'll certainly create a dent in Angelus' forces.

Very nice way for Buffy to wake up...

Tara's so good at keeping the house running smoothly. Such a gem...

And Faith definitely has a lot to catch up on, when they have the time for the full stories.

Beautully written,as always, and leaving me and the rest of your loyal readers and fans wanting more.
