And....BOOM! Hee hee hee...that'll certainly create a dent in Angelus' forces.
Very nice way for Buffy to wake up...
Tara's so good at keeping the house running smoothly. Such a gem...
And Faith definitely has a lot to catch up on, when they have the time for the full stories.

Love it. You know I was about to fall face on the keyboard from lack of sleep and the I saw your update and just had to read it. It couldn't wait 'till tomorrow. Beautully written,as always, and leaving me and the rest of your loyal readers and fans wanting more. So keep up with the good work and I hope you had destroyed the writer's block so the story can flow easily to you
(and to us :P).- Keep it up and take care.

great chapter

Somehow I missed several chapters of this engrossing story. I'm enjoying Lawson's growing role in this. Willow spiraling out of control on the periphery of the story adds even more tension. Faith's observations as the outsider are fun - out of the game for three years and everything really did get "freaky." I love the relaxed, couple-y moments between Spike and Buffy.

Hmmm..nice :P I liked this chapter very much. The silence and peace in it and still the battle is making its way through.. And who would refuse some spuffiness?! I'm waiting for the next chapter (patiently though)! ;) -hwesta-

the story just keeps getting beter, the plot is keeping me on the edge of my seat and the way you write the characters is right on keep up the great work. thanks

I thought he'd eased himself into the whole Spike'n'Scoobies set-up too easily... I don't think he's working for Angelus, or Jenner, though. I think he's been harbouring a grudge since WWII... that's what I think, anyways.
I loved that Buffy and Spike finally get some quality time. Was worried that Connor wasn't in his bed... even if Tara did go in and get him.
I like this Faith. She's more thoughtful and considered in her actions that canon Faith.
Now, am I right about Lawson? And, could he really go against his Sire?
Great chapter, pet. Delighted the Muse is playing nice for you.

Am enjoying Origins. Please continue the story.

OMG so much has happened here. Jenner goes nuetral. Faith gets up to date, which you captured her reactions perfectly. They realize Willow is really powerful. Xander comtemplating things....oh gods he is such a nit wit. Yeah Oz can talk. Ohhhhhhh Spike Biting Sam to resire him..Ohhhhhhh very nice. YES the Huntsman is back...yes yes yes...Oh must protect the chosen one...hmmmmm interesting..NOW GO write more now. Because I need to know more....

Date: 06/29/2006 - 06:48 pm Title: The enemy of my enemy
Ooooo protect the chosen one? Yay! Glad to see the hounds are not finished yet...but something has me holding back on automatically assuming they mean Buffy by The Chosen One.
Xander's internal struggle - while the writing is impeccible as always - didn't impress me. I still feel nothing but contempt for him and will crow with delight if his own prejudices cause him to lose Anya. I am still (not so) secretly rooting for Anya and Giles just as I do Tara and Oz. I love Oz. I love how he has become so much more than periphreal in this story.
Oh Lawson! Welcome to the family! His need for acceptance and family is palpable. I am acutally a little wibbly for him to find his place. With Spike as his sire...he is sure to. I absolutely love all the Vampire tradition woven in. Something so lacking in the show that I suck it up like a person starved.
FAVS:
The two spoke briefly, then Jenner nodded once, closing the door behind him. - ARRRGH! This is killing me. What did they say???
“Got unwired earlier.” Oz opened his mouth to show Xander, then said, “It’s all about the girl power.” - *Grins* Love Oz. LOVE him.
But this wasn’t about pride, or dignity or anything else other than a sense of home, of belonging to something or someone and that he wasn’t alone any longer. Sam had been alone, save for one-night stands since his turning. . . nearly sixty years. Too damn long to be alone. - Someone hug him. PLEASE!
Sam actually shied back, not so much out of disgust, but more out of fear what the Slayer would do if Spike actually chose that route. Catching a glimpse of Sam’s reaction, Spike’s chuckle got louder. “Not gonna happen. There is another way. - Hahaha! Nothing like humor to break the tension of the moment.
Sam’s response was strong and sure, consisting of one word. Spike’s head was angled, fangs embedded in his throat before the sound of Lawson’s “Yes” had died away. - Is it just me...or what that kind of hot anyways? *blushes*
Well Nia, if tearing out your hair and gnashing your teeth produce a chapter like this...well I think you probably look rather fetching bald and toothless! *wink* Loved the chapter. Thanks for another great update.
Cheers!
Nina

The struggle with the writing certainly doesn't show! This was another fabulous chapter!!! I read your story at this site and also at BSV and have reviewed at both, I think. It depends on where I find it first as to where I end up reading it. Patiently waiting for more!!

Date: 06/29/2006 - 04:41 pm Title: The enemy of my enemy
Still loving this story! :) ~ Jenner agreed; and now he'll be neutral at last. Like Spike uses to say: Magic has always consequences yet I thought being protected sounds good. But on the hellmouth? Who knows what can happen there. ~ And Faith knows now that Buffy is pregnant; almost the last one to know, huh? And very unexpected for her. ~ But it seems the hounds have the task to protect Buffy. ~ And I'm sure Buffy prefers this ritual above the other *gg* (Better double the only one :) SR + BSV

oh wow. i knew lawson was just left the way he was left, but to totally leave the whole sire/childe relationship for another. isn't that kinda like a mating claim? all other relationships mean nothing? i mean, i know it's not, what spike is doing. he's already mated and all. but, when a vampire mates, doesn't every other claim or whatnot take a backseat to it? so, even though it's not a claim bite spike put on lawson, it's kinda the same isn't it? his bite is that over angels. wow. i really hope they find willow soon. though, i don't know if i want her to put the soul back in angelus or not. kinda up on the wall on that one. maybe they should, that way he can live with what he did to cordelia. that would tear him up. also, why is the lord of the underworld so protective of the chosen one? isn't he usually a bad guy? well, that's what his name brings out in me anyway. but, i really hate to think what he's gonna do to willow when and if she's caught by the huntsman. please, don't be discouraged about the amount of hits or reviews you get. i understand it can be a bit disheartening. but keep the faith. and hey, if all else fails, i'm really looking forward to the next chapter, so at least you got one person following your story. and i'm sure there are more of me out there. so please, keep it up.

I love this fic madly. Each chapter keeps me on the edge of my seat. You're so very talented. Thanks for sharing!

Date: 06/29/2006 - 01:15 am Title: The enemy of my enemy
I just wanted to tell you how I love this story. I almost don't want it to end...
I adore the dynamics between Tara and Oz, as well as the idea that Buffy and Spike are Dawns real parents.
And I really like the interactions between all of the vampires and the background you are painting for them. You are a hell of a writer! Really good work!

Date: 06/29/2006 - 12:07 am Title: The enemy of my enemy
Is anyone else besides me strangely turned on by the visual of Spike re-siring Lawson?
Excellent chapter, Sweets! I could say more, but am thoroughly exhausted and barely holding my eyes open.
Author's Response: You skanky perv. . . . LOL And I'm not talking

Date: 06/28/2006 - 11:39 pm Title: The enemy of my enemy
Great chapter nia special love that spike will be sam sire .

Date: 06/28/2006 - 10:08 pm Title: The enemy of my enemy
Great chapter. Thanks for all the hard work.

Date: 06/28/2006 - 09:58 pm Title: The enemy of my enemy
Sorry, you've been discouraged. It's a wonderful story and I hope you don't drop it. Feedback is an odd thing. If I'm lucky I might get one review for every 200 hits on a fic. Truth and Possibilities has 8 reviews on Ff.net all but one of them from the same person LOL. Of course my ship is a less popular one.
I'm loving Sam in this and I liked Faith's reaction to itty bitty Buffy. As always Oz rocked I wonder if he'll be chattier now that he was forced to be quiet for a while?

Date: 06/28/2006 - 08:28 pm Title: The enemy of my enemy
Wonderful chapter!! But please keep updating. I need to know how it ends, if they kick Angel's ass and how Willow is gonna get what it's coming to her. Please, please, please don't be dicouraged by less reviews or hits, you are a great writer and your saga is one of the best fictions of any fandom that I have read ever.
Keep the good writing coming, please!!!!!

Date: 06/28/2006 - 08:07 pm Title: The enemy of my enemy
Great chapter. I am sorry that you are feeling discouraged by the number of reads and reviews. This site has changed alot in the last few months, so I would say that has more to do with the decline, than fans leaving the story. Also, there has been an influx of new members into this site and maybe trying to get into an epic such as yours is somewhat daunting for them. Try not to be hurt, I still love it and I am sure many more do as well.

Date: 06/28/2006 - 07:33 pm Title: The enemy of my enemy
I wouldn't get too upset about the lack of hits, I just think people aren't aware of when the story is updated. I was amazed b/c there were 2 chapters for me to read that I missed. It is an amazing story and I love every single word!! And just to let you know - this is the ONLY fic that I am reading that is not completed. Most of the time, I don't read them unless they are finished. I'm one of those people who hate waiting...
That being said, I can't wait for your next update AND I simply can't wait for Angelus to get his ass kicked...

Date: 06/28/2006 - 07:24 pm Title: The enemy of my enemy
This story just gets better and better. I totally get losing the muse and struggling with the words, but got to say... This is totally worth the wait. Continue to produce this most excellenct story no matter how long it takes. :)
