YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i only recently found the first two Origin books and did nothing bu read them until I had finished two of the most amazing pieces of fiction I've ever had the pleasure of reading. I was beyond thrilled to see a new chapter up today and I eagerly await more!!

You are a goddess!!! I, personaly , am ending my moping around, because my favorit story didn't end.

You've started the sequel already! Thank you! Great resolution of the Xander/Anya relationship. I'm so glad taht she threw him out of her life. She is a much better match for Giles. Great story, looking forward to more. I'm really interested in seeing why they had to 'kill' Faith.

i always thought that Anya and giles could be good together i think her knowledge could have helped alot if she had been with anyone but Zander..great new chapter.look forward to more...N

SQUEE!!! You're back and with an awesome chapter!! Oooh, I've gotta admit that I was a little shocked at the nonchalant attitude Giles/Wesley/Buffy had about the woman dying until I realized it was Faith. I almost forgot what happens when a slayer dies, but remembered just in time. The convo between Giles/Wesley was very interesting---the one about the Watchers and the slayers---makes me wonder if more isn't happening with the Council than we think. Maybe they're the possible next 'big bads.'

Poor Connor!! I hope he'll open up and talk to someone so they can reassure him that they don't hate him for the stuff Angel to them. I'm really happy that Dawn treats him like a brother and can't wait to see more of a sibling relationship with them.

Finally, thank you!!! You're giving us major Giles/Anya and I couldn't be more ecstatic!!! I love them together---'Tabula Rasa' being a fave just for that Giles/Anya kiss---and seeing what's happened with them since the last book is great. So glad that you gave us the break-up scene with Xander and Anya telling him that she'd never be first with him, cause I always firmly believed that.

Can't wait for more!!!

I love Ganya....love, love, love it. I'm so glad it'll be a part of the story.

Killing Faith temporarily so they can get another Slayer? Why? Some random girl could be out there freaking out now. If she's to replace Buffy while Buffy is dealing with the pregnancy and birth, that's not exactly fair to the new girl......they took away her choice, and she doesn't even know. At least if it's one of the potentials, she's clued in, but if not........poor girl.

Nothing against you using it story-wise - not what i mean. I'm just feeling for that new very young girl. It's always possible that they get one that's morally bankrupt, too, provided the PTBs don't deliberately select girls with a good heart deep down.

Xander's really an ass.

They're together!!! Yay!!! Always thought Xander wasn't right for Anya. Giles is a much better choice.

Were they trying to kill Faith in the beginning? Why do they want another slayer to be called?

I just love your version of Spike and Buffy. It's one of my favorites! Can't wait for more!!!

Great chapter! What a nice surprise to see this story back again so soon. I really liked the section focusing on Connor's thoughts regarding the info Wes & Spike gave him on Darla & Angel. I can totally believe this Connor would feel guilt by association.

Very much looking forward to more!!

definitely a 'wow' way to start this story--I love the doctor-speak and the insight on Anya/Xander/Giles triangle-thingy (except now it's a line) anyway, can't wait for more!
