extremely enjoyable fic, i luved it.

Author's Response: Thank you! I had fun working out my issues with canon's Season 8! :D

Great story. Loved the whole evolution of them - I really enjoyed the fact that both Willow and Xander were good guys and not jerks in this one. Thanks for all you put in to this.

Author's Response: I'm so glad you liked it! Thank you! I thought that both Willow and Xander would grow after their experiences in Season 7, but that Giles would continue on the same path down which he started when he conspired with Wood to kill Spike.

awww... i LOVED it!

Author's Response: Thank you! I'm so glad you liked it!

Fantastic ending to a fantastic story! Loved the Angel and Kennedy Smackdown.I hated Kennedy in s7. Of course she'd be the one to turn the SIT's against Spike.
How many ways does Buffy have to tell Angel she loves Spike? He's so dense.

I'm glad to see that the Council and the Slayers are thinking of other ways to do things. And that they agreed to be independent. I wish this was s8..you should be writing that dreamweaver, maybe then it wouldn't be so OOC and bad.

Loved that Spike renounced his claim...it shows he loves her.And then they did the full claim. Yay! Claimy goodness! So nice to see Spike got his memories back..too bad he was feeling so guilty and unworhty of Buffy because of that damn bathroom episode. Good for Buffy setting him straight on that :)

Loved it, can't wait for your next! I'll be patiently waiting.

Author's Response: Angel just doesn't want t know. I hated what I hear is going on in the comics, which is why I wrote this story - to point out the errors. They really are OOC! I'm working on my next one right now, a time travel story. But it might be a while before it's up, because it looks like it's going to be a long one.

Kennedy.... so she was behind that. *reads on* But because Giles ordered it. Still if Kennedy had wanted it she could have refused it. *nods* Power hungry indeed.
Giles should have known better. Better to listen to Angel too. Good question - what's the difference that makes Angel good and Spike bad? Having a soul, the ability to love? Don't know where Giles sees it, the difference. Buffy made her point clear. And Spike too, releasing her out of the claim.
What Buffy suggested that they do sounds better and a totalitarian regime. Too much power for Giles who meant too well. Could be the same with other slayers. *points to Kennedy*
Didn't expect the Wiccas to be behind the others attacks. In a way it was Giles' fault, he caused them to react (even if they overreacted).
But it ended well :D
I'm glad about that even it's sad that it is already the end. Enjoyed the read :)

Author's Response: Kennedy could have refused, but she didn't want the Slayers dispersed and lose her position as primary squad leader. Giles kept up his hostility to Spike in S7, even after Spike got his soul, but didn't seem to have any problem with Angel. Why is Spike a disgusting thing who should be dusted, but Angel is not? I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Thank you so much!

Wonderful! Loved the big fight scene with Buffy tossing baby slayers around the room. I had wondered if Xander would side with Giles. Glad he didn't. Nothing out of character for any of them. The only thing wrong with this fic is that it's too short! It's not supposed to be finished yet! I want more!

Author's Response: Oh, I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Thank you! I really have to try writing a longer fic. Keeping it short gives it punch. But I've got an idea for a time travel fic that might go long if I can keep the intensity up.
