and demented leer>?

Thanx Thoth,

I'm glad Anya and Cordy made you laugh, although the next chapter's gonna
take it to the next level, hopefully, as Anya meets Cordy once again. As
for Glory and Anna, I guess if you want to call making a six-year-old girl
your slave becoming more human, then... :)

Regarding Back in Boston, it's nice to know you appreciate the sibling
rivalry between Buffy and Dawn, and the Buffy/Faith tension along with the
Dawn crush and the ambiguos Willow as of the moment. Double :)

Thanx again for the feed,

-CDS

Okay, RL has been a royal pain in the rump for the last week and a bit. I've
barely had time to read all the goodies, much less send feedback. So, in
alphabetical order, except for:

Kimber (coz she's the listmum and I'm a total suck-up <g>)

Yes!! More 'Roads'. <insert idiot (that would be me) doing happy dance>.
Great to see this epic being continued. I'm looking forward to seeing how
you and Alan (the lucky bas...uh, guy) work together. BTW, are you going to
post TRWT to your site? And are you still working on Aeternus Eternus Donum,
'cause that first part really got to me.

Aeris

Whoa, Purgatory and The Light in Her Eyes. Heavy stuff. Hope you're not
going to leave it there 'cause it begs for a sequel. Tireseus was neat,
especially the way Buffy fell instantly in lust with William. Willow trying
to cope with teenaged male homones, and being stalked by Cordy and her
'clones' was a hoot. Again, this story leaves me wanting more. And speaking
of more, does Tireseus tie into Inner Demons and Restorations? You mentioned
a 17 part Willow crossover, and I'm assuming that was what you were
referring to.

Anne-Lise

Spam is defined as large numbers of annoying, boring, and unwanted emails
(also a really unhealthy canned meat product that I happen to be sort of
addicted to, but that's beside the point <g>). Since your snippets are none
of the above (except maybe the canned stuff, i.e. laughing that hard is
probably unhealthy, but it's really, really good), they cannot be called
Spam. Therefore you must not stop posting them. Isn't logic a wonderful
thing? And sokuseisaibai absolutely is worth continuing. I really want to
know what those voices are telling Willow.

Bill and Red

The scene where Dawn read the riot act to Raoul was perfect. The guy
obviously has the brains of a month-old turnip. The sad part is, I remember
seeing things like that all the time during the Vietnam conflict back in the
late 60's and early 70's. Serious deja vu. The confrontation with Faith was
very well done. Maybe Beth can let go of some of her anger now. Assuming, of
course, that everything doesn't go to hell in a handbasket now that she's
been recalled. Can't wait for the next part.

Right in Front of You keeps getting better. Part 17 had me in stitches.

Cilia

Whoo-Hoo, Willow's back and kickin' butt. Good to see the Red Mage take her
rightful position again. That walk down the halls, picking up her old
companions on the way, was beautifully done. I'd say the sight of the Red
Mage at her full powers was a real shock to the Royals. Slayer X looks to be
a wild ride, hope to see it soon.

Connor

Nice little look at married life for Xander and Anya. It's good to see
Xander take charge of his life, and the part-time work with Angel is kinda
cool, too. Still waiting for Willow to find Buffy (hint, hint).

Dan

Finally! Buffy and Willow have been dancing around their feelings for each
other for far too long. Very nicely done. Buffy's near panic and Willow's
reaction were described perfectly. And who woulda thunk that Willow would be
so...forward <g>. I Understand was sweet and sad. Missed opportunities are
always clearer in hindsight. Dreamhouse was definitely a major WAFFY, and
most welcome after I Understand. And as far as Cordy is concerned, well, we
always knew she had good taste. Too bad Buffy got there first...NOT!

Hhdouglas

Immortal Pair continues to entertain. Book 2 is actually better than book 1
(and 1 was a roller coaster). The story is tighter and the characters more
developed. Concentrating on just the various vampire communities is making
the story flow very well. And getting some Immortal action going with Buffy
and Willow is most welcome.

Jamie

I gotta tell you, it is so weird to see Willow as the Slayer, but it does
work. The dream sequences in Stuck in Overdrive are really good. Somehow I
think you're going to bring Buffy back (I hope). And what the heck is going
on with Harmony. Color me confused.

Kirayoshi

Eeeep! Ye gods, 'Yoshi, what are you doing!? I'm having a stroke here. Bad
enough those dorks at the Initiative are messing with Buffy and Dawn, but
Glory back in Buffy's body!? That's just, well, wrong. Ok, ok, <deep,
calming breath> 'Yoshi is good, Yoshi is wise, trust 'Yoshi. After all, Dr.
Brahams got his neck nicely broken (couldn't happen to a nicer guy), and
Riley really is a drooling idiot, instead of just acting like one <eg>. I
really liked the way Spike bluffed out the troops and landed a good one on
Riley despite the chip. And Willow getting medieval on Riley's butt was
definitely a good thing. Now hurry up and fix this, pleeeease. (Mad-Hamlet
is right, kevlar would probably be a good idea <g>).

Mad-Hamlet

I don't know which I enjoy more, your stories, your insane (but in a good
way) snippets, or your comments on other writers' stories. They're all just
so damn much fun to read. On Occasions 2 was..well, let's just say it was,
um, interesting. OK, it was HOT. Happy now? Good. BTW, who exactly is Mr.
Flibble, and what the hell is a Pop-Rock?

Sam

Awwwww, this was so sweet. I especially liked the scene where Buffy made
Faith see her with her hands. I don't usually read B/F fics but I'll never
pass up something you write, so...nice one.



Shyfox

Always nice to see another chapter of the Spell series. It's good to see
Willow and her mother trying to repair their relationship. Sheila's finally
admitted to herself that she screwed up big time. It's a small step, but
it's in the right direction. Ira really need something large, heavy, and
dropped from a great height to land on his pointy little head. And those
last few paragraphs made me very nervous. What sort of trouble is brewing
this time?

Soren

Daybreak Postponed gets more intriguing with each chapter. I still haven't
figured out what Travers and his cronies are up to. They really are slime.
aren't they? Sam is a hoot. I shudder to think what would happen if she ever
got together with Faith <g>. The little glimpses of Giles' past are neat as
well. It's interesting to see a story that is *not* a sequel that starts
with Buffy and Willow in an established relationship.
9A raises some fascinating questions about the nature of the Slayers. Or it
could be Travers trying to rationalize his own behavior. I guess we'll see.


Tony

Good to see you back and in one piece. Looking forward to more of Destiny's
End. Again referring to Mad-Hamlet (gee, I do that a lot, don't I?), reality
often bites the big one, and Happy Endings are woefully lacking. So, if we
can get one in some part of our lives, even if it's only fictional, it makes
the rest a little easier to deal with. Welcome home.


That's all for now. Hopefully, I'll have more time to send feedback in the
future. Thanks to all.
