Please don't get discouraged! This is a wonderful series, one of the best that's being written right now, I think, and it would be such a waste if you weren't to finish it.

Thank you for updating! I love this fic.

I hope you're not letting that sanctimonious crap review by Rinne upset you. Who cares if she doesn't like Faith or Xander (I personally like both :P ) I could care less what she thinks of the Dawn/Wes pairing and the nit-picking over trivial issues such as Buffy's finances and whether Tara works or not? Puhlease.

I've noticed that the ones who pick apart a story are usually ones that wish that had enough talent to write a ficlet much less an epic fic like yours. Tell her/him to sod off! They're not worth your time.

After reading your comments regarding the review that stayed with you, I made it a point to read the reviews that had been left. It made me realize that I’ve taken for granted the time and talent writers put into creating the fiction that has given me so much pleasure.

I read an inordinate amount, books and online fan fiction and while I have favorite authors sometimes even a favorite author can write a dud or more often than not write a plot that I don’t understand or enjoy or a plot that is unique but the grammar and/or spelling is such that I spend more time attempting to correct it than read it. When that happens, either I put the book down or I stop reading it online. What I would never do is assume that I could have written it better or leave a review that berates an author that has put so much time and effort into writing a story. I don’t have that given talent or imagination to put words to paper but I truly appreciate those that do.

What I most appreciate about fan fiction is when a story takes a character that I truly detest and writes him or her in such a way that I end of liking the character, which for me is a pleasure. Then there are the stories that reiterates the negative feelings that I have for the character, I enjoy those even more.

Specifically regarding the Origin stories, I have enjoyed them immensely. I prefer long stories and you have provided that in spades. I find the characterization and pacing wonderful. Please try to release whatever negative feelings that the reviewer engendered and continue with your wonderful writing. Reviewers are entitled to their opinions but until they put themselves on the line (as you and other authors have done) with well thought out stories and puts it out there for others to read and critique then they are just whistling in the wind.

My humble opinion only.

omg-please finish this story and please please don't let one person ruin it for all that follow this wonderfull story that is so complex -it weaves and blends the plot so well..o.k. I'm incoherent and i cant spell-all i am trying to say is that when i see an update i can't wait to see whats going on. The fic is better written than than most soaps -and i am sure that i am not the only one who thinks this way. It is intense and character driven.
Im not good at giving reviews but i hope this chears you up
thanks,

My dear,
it's always with the greatest pleasure that I discover your updates. The thrill of anticipation is more than worth the time between your updates, which never fails to deliver. I can't remember being disappointed one single time by your updates. Your story is always so beautilffully crafted and the twists, turns and cliffhangers - while definitely of the evil variety - only make me more excited for your story.
I've read your Faith/Jenner one shot and I still haven't really recovered from the punch it gave me: I've always thought that Faith was painted too simply in the show but yours gave her more depth and emotions I think I ever saw her display. And Jenner.... sigh... So, thank you very much for sharing and for this update of Resolutions. BTW, is it me or are things gonna heat up soon?? Gaah, the evil cliffhanger!!!!!
cheers

Oh, nice! People working for Giles. I like it. And I did, indeed, enjoy this chapter as much as the last!

I really enjoy reading your "books" here. I love them and it's amazing what have you done to the original story line. :) I love Spuffy too. So I hated when it didn't turn that way in the series. I write some of my own stuff too, but since english isn't my native language, I'm quite shy to show them to anyone.
I thought you might wanna know that I've made couples in my The Sims 2-game, like you have in your stories (it was possible to download for example Buffy and Spike for the game). :D I'm 28 and still love to play that game (I know it sound crazy, but it's the power over all things there ;)).
I hope you'll post soon another chapter and we could get to read what happens next. :)
Thank you!

THAT was HOT!!!
Thanks!
Liking the fic too!

Great Chapter

Always love the Spuffy.

It was worth the wait.

I was just catching up on the last couple of chapters and I'm definitely enjoying it. I love the family dynamic you have weaved into this story. It sounds totally far-fetched, but when I think about it, it makes perfect sense. Thanks for writing this fantastic series-hope the muse sends some inspiration soon!

Very good I loved it and I can't wait to read more.

Wow the list of enemies never ends, now I'm wondering who Warren's working for. Well we knew Riley was gonna be awkward, I hope they just give him enough rope to hang himself with. Great update.
