If the German is wrong, blame Babelfish! *g* Actually, if you would like to fix it and send it to me, I would change it in the story. :) And I am glad you like it. I do like Tara, I just have had trouble working her in. Hopefully if there is another story in this cycle, I will be able to use her more. I'd like to make her a fully-fledged member ofthe Scoobies.

that you were like a stevedore during sex... Do you want me to continue?
Giles: Actually, I beg you to stop.
Buffy: What's a stevedore?

Hm, one typical apocalypse averted... Hey, we didn't have that in quite some time and many fics. So, this was meant positive. :)
The German was actually rather accurate, a little off here and there, I believe you were searching for "Erde" as the Earth element. "Masse" would bematter. A few other words were funny but it was okay, considering that oldHigh German is phrased funny anyway and I'm no expert on that.
I liked the interaction and how you are giving Tara actually a bit more of a character in this. I understand that a lot of people here don't like her (which is a total personal opinion that I totally understand) and often if she shows up in a AU she seems to be the standard witch friend of Willow and nothing more. I have seen the theme often enough. You had a little bit more interaction between in this part which helped a lot.
Thanks for the update.

Ja ne, yours
