No way should you be nervous about this. It is awesome! I love seeing the three of them come together. I love seeing the research that Dawn put in paying off. She didn't want to tell them, but like things happen in real life, it came out. You wrote it well and the characters are true to life and themselves. I love it VERY MUCH. I look forward to the next update.

I so love buffy and spike closer moment's sh love's spike so much that i don't think she can handle it if she lost him as spike said to her that will never hapened cause he will always find his way back to her aww.I so love them as a couply.Like spike said buffy dawn and connor are his family now and i so loved what he said about dawn that he new from the very day they meet that there was a connection he had with her well now he know what that connection is she his flesh and blood so beautiful.IF Willow think her powers will stop angleus from coming after her than she is as dumb as i though.She is i big trouble now and it could happened to a better person than.Get her angelus maybe this will teach her lessonthat she can't control her friends live's.GREAT CHAPTER NIA

whoa, Willow is movin toward the Darkside....I love it

Awww! How could anyone not love Spike is my question, but as you know, I'm a bit biased... Loved the scene between them. So sweet. And Spike's thoughts on Dawn, too. He's so perfect. *sigh* Anyway... lol Willow's gone to the dark side, and now Buffy knows it. She might a s well just get her cape and big black mask now... *ahem* Liked the scene at the end with her and Xander. Shows how naive he is. Gotta wonder what Buffy's going to do once she has a chance to really process what Willow's done... Good chapter. The plot's definitely moving, although I thought it was all along... Looking forward to the next chapter, whenever it comes!

Oh goddess, I had no idea that what Willow had put into play were the Knights. I knew she had done something to manipulate events, but this result is just beyond the pale. This little girl needs to be put down. And I mean dead. I don't know if Buffy will ever reach that decision, but I know I've had about enough of her. No one puts Dawn in danger and gets away with it. Hopefully Buffy's "Momma Bear" instincts will kick in and she'll start kicking butt. Wonderful, captivating, angsty chapter sweetie. I just love how you had Tara gently break the news to Buffy (well...as gently as possible). Good gods, when is Giles coming back? His discoveries within the Council libraries and archives are wonderful and helpful, I'm sure, but Buffy's kind of freaking out a little (and with good reason). I just can't help wishing that Giles' calming presence were on hand to help stabalize the situation. Or at least give them all a sense of security. *sigh* Wonderful, amazing angst! I just love how you are winding this coil so tight!

grrr.I cant stand Willow or Xander right now and I cant wait for Giles to come back. And a question is Anya going to leave Xander and get together with Giles?

So, I haven't decided yet, if you are a truly evil person or perhaps just a brilliant writer (I'm swaying more towards the latter). The way you keep putting us on the edge of our seats is well... a tad bit vicious, but hey it's totally working, cuz I sure keep coming back for more! I also wanted to thank you for making me laugh at loud while reading... the last scene, with Buffy on the bed w/ Spike, where he says 'Got you, Niblet and spawn here to worry over'... I was cracking up. Spawn... hee, hee. I know Spike had referred to Connor as that in a previous chapter, but I just found it amusing that you had him say it again there!

I always love your updates. And when they come, by the time I am done, my heart is pounding and my mind is going a mile a minute. Loved this chapter. I always like it when Tara is the wise one who "sees" what others don't, but no one questions her. Can't tell you how much I giggled, and believe me, I DO NOT giggle, whenever Spike refers to Connor as Spawn. It is so appropriate, is a twisted kind of way. That Willow, I am glad you are bringing her to life the way I always felt she acted in the series: Power hungry. Loved it!!!

The truth isn’t always kind, nor is it caring of what was before or what will come after, only that it is heard. Truth never has an easy birth. But once it arrives, there is a feeling of rightness, a sense of having known what the truth is before it is even uttered, an inescapable moment, when the speaker and the witness know, deep in their souls, that the truth has been revealed. Quite possibly one of the most apt definitions I've ever read. Follow your muse, this is one of the best fanfics I've ever read. And I've read a few. Also as a sixteen year veteran of bookselling, I want to tell you that I hope to be hand-selling a published work by you in the future. Keep up the great work. Lori

Another great chapter - it's hard to read chapter-by-chapter like this, but also very rewarding. So many cliffhangers and questions (like, how are they going to get rid of the knights this time?). And so many great little moments between the characters - including the baby and Spike.
Date: 05/17/2005 - 08:22 pm Title: Communication got me down
Wonderful chapter as always.

thank-you for the authors notes. i can listen to you teach all day long. i am honored to be your sister. great talk between tara and buffy. gods, the revelations.....they both have so much to deal with and i am glad they have eachother. willow, willow,willow....i have to say that i would love to see her kick some angelus ass. i loved this chapter as much as i love all the others. i am enjoying a second read.

pish, whoever said you're not moving the plot along is a dummy.a fool. completely unhinged. your writing is perfect in every way. You ahve the characters down pat, your plot is pure gold, and the emotions you express in your words melt in my heart like butter on my tongue. In short - me like it, ignore the flamy moody people. just read the last 2 chaps in one, so as for the previous one - WOW. i love how you handled the revelations about dawn being buffy and spikes. after the intial blurting out you made it so perfectly understated, quietly brilliant, and just plain beautiful. this chapter was all with the exciting willowy revelations - and again you had me with my heart in my throat just waiting for angelus to come through the door at any minute and eat her (although the more i learn about your willow the less that concerns me!). OK. this is getting long, so i'll stop for now!

First off i am not sure which i prefer the milk and cookies or the beer and whiskey *grins* thank you hun. This chapter is filled with shit to come and oh baby when it happens. Tara goddes bless that woman she is so much stronger than she thinks she is. I give her so much credit for telling Buffy what she saw. You nailed her way of doing so very well. Gave her that Tara shyness but at the same time the strength to reveal what was needed. Oh my heart was in my throat with Buffy running up the stairs, I think I held my breath till she got there and i huffing along with her. Spike how f'n sweet and cute him talkn to Connor and reasurring the lil guy he would help out. His reflections of Dawn were incredible. How he always knew she was a part of him somehow. Buffy telling spike "how could I not love you" that is a perfect way she would of said it too. In away to not let herself just let it out. Though knowing full well she can't do without spike. Willow and Xander oh christ frick and frack...Willow the manipulator and XAnder the stuge(sp). Well now Giles needs to get his ass home, Willow needs to watch her back, Buffy and Spike need have hot monkey love soon *laughs*. Angel needs to get staked..and oh your muse needs to keep on bringing the good stuff to you for some awesome writing. EXCELLENT chapter...nice movement..interesting insight in yet a deeper mode of the characters beings.

I'm getting nervous. Both Angelus and Willow to worry about. I love how protective Spike is of Connor. Please update when you can.
Date: 05/17/2005 - 08:15 pm Title: Communication got me down
I look forward to each chapter. As usual this was a great chapter. Please continue to update sooner and more often. PLEASE
Date: 05/17/2005 - 07:53 pm Title: Communication got me down
Hooray...an update!!! Loved it, loved it, loved it. I can't wait to see where it goes from here and what happens to Willow. I hope she doesn't find some way to team up with Angelus to try to hurt Spike. Poor Tara--she must be so sad:( Spike's the best--"even if I got dusted I'd find a way back"--my heart skipped a beat when I read that.
Date: 05/17/2005 - 07:46 pm Title: Communication got me down
Ooohh-- the plot thickens! Very interesting update; continue to love this story!
Date: 05/14/2005 - 03:46 pm Title: The ragged edges of truth
Sorry I didn't get to this sooner. On the possitive side that means less of a wait for updates! This is the chapter I've been waiting for since the begining of Origins. You've done an awsome job. I was weepy too.
If I were Dawn I'd use Mom & Dad in private to address B&S and Daddy when I wanted something.
Author's Response: I'm sooo glad you said that. I wanted to know if I was the only crazy one who cried during portions of this chapter. Thanks for admitting it!
Date: 05/12/2005 - 11:24 am Title: The ragged edges of truth
Been a horrible reviewer lately, but still reading and LOVING this story. Simply amazing. :)
Author's Response: Hey, its okay, all's forgiven. Thanks for the boost. It means alot!
Date: 05/11/2005 - 11:43 pm Title: The ragged edges of truth
So touching and sweet.
Author's Response: Well, thank you so much for that. I tried as best I could with that scene.
Date: 05/11/2005 - 05:46 pm Title: The ragged edges of truth
I've been reading this 'Origins' (and the first one) for at least three days, and now...Now I have to be like everyone else, and wait the excruciating amount of time it takes for people to update, be it hours or days. I am LOVING this story, and really loving the perspective on Tara. I always thought that the writers neglected her as a character, and that she had the potential for an incredible amount of depth. So, only three questions.
1) When will we see Kirsten again, and who (or what) is she?
2) Will Dawn still call Buffy and Spike by their names, or will she them Mom and Dad? (Basically, is she gonna come clean with everyone else)
GREAT job. Update soon!
Author's Response: Three days!!! OMG. Thanks sooo much!! Um, actually, you sort of asked four questions. . . but. . . to answer them in order: perhaps soon; you'll find out when she comes around next time; Dawn hasn't made up her mind, but she's leaning toward Spike and Buffy . . . . 3 Days! Damn!
Date: 05/11/2005 - 04:00 am Title: The ragged edges of truth
Great chapter! You managed to bring a whole gamut of emotions into it and it worked really well. Congratulations.
Author's Response: Thanks! I'm really glad you liked it.
