Though I really don't want to do this, I feel I must be honest with you. I really liked Origins. For me I felt it was how S.6 should have gone. Well, maybe not with so much sex and so much more talking than action but you catch my drift. This story...I've been hanging on because I like the writing but my increasing disinterest in the baby stuff is marring my enjoyment. Guess what. I'm a sodding anomaly. I happen to be female and babies don't make me all...gooey and brain-dead. In fact I find them rather repellent, and maybe it's just my own personal issues but I resent the decidedly domestic direction this story has gone. I appreciated the dynamic of Buffy, Spike, and Dawn as a family. Personally, I think it would have been better to explore all that rather than dragging Conner into the mix and then knocking Buffy up. Ugh, saw that comin' a mile away, but I still didn't like it.
I also kind of think the narrative has gotten a bit sloppy. It's just too much between the baby crap, Kirsten being Spike and Buffy's daughter from the future, Angelus, Willow, and all the vamp OCs. It's just a bit much to take in.
Might I also mention that I don't really get why Willow has it out for Spike? I mean, she's not one of his biggest fans but I'd think it more likely for her to warm up to him then go all hive-mind with Xander. After all, she's seen a lot more depth to him even before the events of S.5. *shrugs* Just sayin'. I think your point is more that dark magicks don't have her thinking none too clearly.
Having said all that, I really do like your writing. You have a lot of talent. If you want to suss out my criticism, feel free to look up my profile.
