And the Oscar goes to Joyce for her quick thinking and actiing

OH I can't wait to see what happens now.

OH I can't wait to see what she discovers.

I didn't really like the Bangel-ness (or S/B/A allusions) that came into the story towards the end, but I really did enjoy the story overrall. It was a very enjoyable read. :)

OMG! I love it!! I really like what you did with Angel in this story. It was a nice change..just like Xander. Even though that took me a few minutes to get use to. Hehe! As soon as she claimed him I was wondering if there was going to be any a/b/s needless to say I was happy to see what you wrote in your authors note. Sorry I didn't review your story while you were writing it but I try to stay away from WIP's. Whenever I find one I really really like half the time they don't get finished. =P Its 2am here so I'm going to bed but tomorrow I'm going to check out your site. Thank you so much for such a great story! I REALLY enjoyed reading it.

So Willow has indeed destroyed the old Buffy in a way. That makes me sad. I hope Spike can help his mate in the future.
About the next part, the sequel?
I'm torn, I read these last chapters here with glimpses of B/A and a story lately that had a lot of B/A in it. I read it because I thought it would get S/B. I was wrong, it ended dif-ferent and I didn't like the way it ended. At the moment I'm a bit careful abut his kind of stories. I don't read B/A normally, that's why I don't read your other stories. Maybe with time it's getting better for me to have faith enough to read but at the moment I'm not sure I can bear that kind of WIP, a stories taking unexpected turns especially of the B/A kind. And what you wrote: I'm a sucker for a happy ending too but for a happy spuffy end. Not a Bangel one; that’s why I normally don’t read it (except it is in a spuffy story) or why I don’t read Buffy/others or Spike/others stories (completely without the spuffy. I don’t know how it’s called, crossovers doesn’t fit it completely). When I know a story is B/S/A I'm happy to see whatever it's called a happy B/S/A ending.
So at the moment wait how it ends to avoid a unpleasant surprise sounds good. We'll see.
I still will read your Spuffy stories that's sure. Take care till then!

And now we get glimpses of the second part of the story, huh? Spike talking about what Angel means to Buffy and that she can love him and Angel can give Buffy things Spike can't. Yeah I see why Buffy is so upset: She is in love with Spike and yet he wants her to chose Angel (in some way).

Oooh exciting! I can't wait to see what you have in store for us. .... You ARE going to write a sequel to this right? Pretty please! Fabulous story. Loved it from start to finish. Looking forward to reading more of your stories.

grea story. can't wait for the next part

This was a great story. I really want to read what comes next, I hope I can find it on your site. I love B/S/A almost as much as Spuffy! I'm glad I found the story.

i honestly lost interest a long time ago, but i managed to stick with it. i won't be reading the next installment though, this story was just a little too weird and confusing for me. i have a feeling the next one would be even worse, and i can't stand to see buffy like that. or willow for that matter. none of it makes any sense to me, and i need more spuffy.

I like your story,. but it could be better if u'd paragraphed better. The sentences are all cluttered up together and its tiring.

You could have wrote something like:

"Buffy Anne Summers!" Joyce chastisized.

"You are one of the most capable people I have ever met, " Joyce smiled adoringly, "But that doesn't mean you can't let people help you along the way." etc etc...

Just my 2 pence... I feel that paragraphing and adding a little more scenes in between mini-speeches will loosen clutters and make things more interesting.

Good job though, thanks for sharing :)
