I think it's a fine update. Wish there was more...doing great. So much is going on; all totally engrossing. Thanks and hope there is ;more soon

great updates! hope u feel better soon
can't wait for more!

I love the way Wes and Giles are trying to find the logical steps a spellcaster would have taken. It's very much what those two Watchers would do.

I'm fascinated to find out what Kirsten will say.

Good chapter; I'm glad you've been in less pain.

I think it is great. Sorry your not doing well. Take care.

Oh no, Buffy - you had nothing to do with the vanishing of Angel's soul! *Sigh* Poor Dawn is just like her mother - she thinks it's her fault! But it was Angel who did this! It's only his fault. Mmm baby Connor recognized Kirsten as family as it seems. I wonder how long it will take the Scoobies to find out who did a spell that went wrong - again. Oh - Kirsten has a brother! That was unexpected. Looking forward to the little chat :) Good to hear you feel better - at last now.

Poor dawn at least she has her parents there for her but am wondering will she ever be the same agine after all she's been through. Am just loving kirsten she is so her daday daughter and her daddy am thinking is spike and mommoy is buffy that's just my though cause she acts just like her dad spike and it looks like crazy willow is close to be fond out good cause she get's everthing she deserve ..Great chapter nia glad to hear your arm is geting better feel better soon

The memory loss seems to be sufficient to confuse them all but not enough to make them completely unaware of all that has gone before; the awful realisation that Angel is now Angelus, however, is a big shock which adds to the tragic plight of Dawn and even has Buffy questioning whether once again she stripped him of his soul. The spell's effect has made them all stop - stop and consider each other in an almost analytical light, but with the underlying knowledge that they are definitely not the same people from four months ago. The spell still blocks out the cause of four months' worth of life, but it cannot conceal the effects that have evolved since the return of Buffy. Willow has failed in that Buffy has not rejected Spike, but rather she has remained close to him through sheer instinct; even the others do not consider him as the platinum pest of old. Willow has also stripped them of their caution towards Angel and as a result, there is death, tears and no going back. She won't be able to make a batch of cookies as penance for this spell, when the veil is finally lifted.

Great story, so many layers, so much going on. Great.

this was a great chapter, getting to know kirsten a little more is nice, and as always, the buffy/spike interaction si spot on. thanks for working on this even when you're not 100% well. Hope you start feeling less sore soon, but don't push yourself for our sakes - we can wait, just you get better.

They are so close to the root of the problem. I am just glad that they are all together excluding Oz. Tara knows something is up but no one can put their finger on it. Kristen is in a world of trouble when she comes clean...
Love the chapter. You are so pulling me in and I always wait at the edge of my seat for the next chapter. Glad to see Connor with Kristen. His reactions to ppl are also telling.

Hmm well interesting, will be fun to see how you work the mystery girls story into this. I'm also curious about the hunter and his dogs and when they will make their move. Nice chapter though and I'm curious as to when they will start to puzzle the thing toghether completly. Should also be interesting to see what Willow will do once she finds out that she caused the death of Dawns boyfriend, will she still be in denial and say it's for the best? Many questions I have and can't wait for the next chapter.

This was fabulous!!! I loved it!!! The little crumbs thrown here and there just pull me in some more, and I'm wondering who Kirsten is every time I read a new chapter. So glad that Tara has come in and to see at which point everyone has 'lost' their memories. I'm eagerly awaiting the time when Willow realizes what she's done and everyone's reactions to what she's done. Wonderful job!!!

Excellent chapter! I Loved it. I'm glad their starting to figure out the spell and everything. Can't wait for more.

love how their all figuring out about the spell. willow is sooo gonna get it....the interaction of spike and dawn was so emotional and perfect. i think everyting worked great and flowed perfectly. i can't wait for the "talk" with kirsten. thank-you for posting.
