Reviews for Happy Development Ahn 2007-09-03 id # 6253 nice start gnome 2007-09-03 id # 6254 Lol, dude that was a great chapter! Loved the interactions and the realness to both shows/movie! Hilarious! Ahn 2007-09-09 id # 6327 Great update! Can't wait for the next one! ema elbrooke04@yahoo.co.uk 2007-09-10 id # 6332 love what you have so far would love to read more so please update Howard R 2007-09-12 id # 6339 To be honest, I half expected Buffy to go: "Caleb! It's the First!" and start slaying right off. Ahn 2007-09-15 id # 6395 Great update! Keep it coming! Howard R 2007-09-19 id # 6418 I'm sure Willow recognized the concept of the geisha. I'm surprised Buffy didn't arm wrestle Jayne. Would've proved her point about her mystical strength. Ahn 2007-09-20 id # 6435 Great update! salix 2007-09-20 id # 6436 I can't wait to see what you have in store with the whole Inara getting jealous thing. Do I sense a little bit of competition coming up? I think it would be funny to see Inara and Buffy fighting over Willow. I like how you mentioned Kaylee being like pre-wicca Willow because she always reminded me of Willow in the earlier seasons. Update soon please. Don't leave us in suspense for too long. Valyssia 2007-09-21 id # 6439 Very, very cute romp. The character interactions are quite amusing. Well done! I look forward to more. Val Ahn 2007-09-25 id # 6485 What's going to happen once the scoobies find out that there guest have been kidnapped? Update soon! Howard R 2007-10-01 id # 6533 The trouble with telepathy: uncensored thoughts! Can't wait to see what happens in the morning. Ahn 2007-10-01 id # 6536 Great update! It looks like it's getting harder for Buffy not to say what she thinks. Wounder what will happen when Willow wakes up with Buffy wraped around her? Update soon! bhv virgotex@gmail.com 2007-10-01 id # 6538 I usually don't "do" x-overs but I am really enjoying this. Valyssia 2007-10-04 id # 6556 Keep it coming... Loving it... Val Ahn 2007-10-07 id # 6576 Great Update! Keep it coming! Howard R 2007-10-07 id # 6580 Poor Buffy: in danger of losing Willow to a geisha from the future. She better speak up soon. bhv virgotext@gmail.com 2007-10-08 id # 6583 Nive interlude. Have to say though, the use of the word "girl" startles me out if the scene. Are Xander and Simon "boys" then? Valyssia 2007-10-10 id # 6608 Meh... Breakfast and someone to listen, does not a relationship make, Howard. 'Specially when that someone has been taught to listen as part of her trade. Yeah...Buffy jealous...okay...but notice the way Willow looked back and blushed. She got a happy...her head hurt too much for the extra reactions/ commentary. The ship ain't sunk yet. 'Sides...my bets...Inara would charge her. LOL Suppose they could take it out in fruit, but still. LOL The thing I most loved about this latest chapter (CH7 Kidnapping Schmidnapping) is the description of magick Willow gives Inara. Super stuff! Very eloquently stated...very concise...and pretty much spot on. I've said similar in my fiction. Prolly more wordsome though... *blushes* Well done on this. BHV is totally right. I came into this skeptical, reading more out of friendship or potential friendship than anything else. I'm so totally hooked now. If I don't read anything else, I read your updates. Considering the raw amount of time I spent rattling the keys... Be flattered. The abbreviated version: Love ya Whedonist! Keep it up! Val Howard R 2007-10-15 id # 6648 Faith as cupid? I'm so afraid. Ahn 2007-10-15 id # 6649 Can't wait to see what Faith does to help Buffy! Update soon! Valyssia Valyssia@gmail.com 2007-10-22 id # 6689 Well it didn't happen this chapter. I fully expect Faith to handle it with her usual tact. Actually, sorta my usual tact—come to think... The sorta tact that involves blunt objects and sharp impacts. Well done, again dearie. This is much and bunches o' fun. Val Howard R 2007-10-22 id # 6690 Buffy needs to confess soon or Willow might start wondering if Buffy's turning 'phobic all of a sudden. Ahn 2007-10-22 id # 6693 Thanks for the update! Shadowcub 2007-10-26 id # 6718 Lot's more please. Ahn 2007-10-30 id # 6728 It might be best for Willow and everyone else if she talks to Buffy soon then later. Buffy might not be able to keep her jealousy in check long enough to complete her mission. Great update and can't wait for the next one! bhv virgotex@gmail.com 2007-10-30 id # 6729 Nice. I like your Faith. She's real, not just the usual collection of overused mannerisms Shadowcub 2007-10-30 id # 6730 Buffy is gonna wakw up confused. Howard R 2007-11-02 id # 6738 Willow should know better than that. Things don't settle down around the slayer. And if they do, there's always something else right on their heels. Valyssia 2007-11-07 id # 6766 Very amusing... I have to wonder if Buffy will ever forgive Faith or worse yet...let her live it down. Odds are...many a snarky comment to come. Val Bhv Virgotex@gmail.com 2007-11-07 id # 6771 Funny!!!! Ahn 2007-11-07 id # 6773 That was a great update! Faith drunk was the funniest thing! I can't wait to see the out come of what she said. Hopefully the cold water of the pool sobered Willow up a little to talk with Buffy. Of course we are talking Buffy so she might freak and clam up. Can't wait for more, update soon please! Howard R 2007-11-08 id # 6776 Ah, the confessions of a drunken slayer. The alchohol won't kill her but Buffy and Willow just might. The Mal/Zoe scene really fit the characters. Excellent work there. Shadowcub 2007-11-11 id # 6791 lmao! On this chapter. Ahn 2007-11-14 id # 6817 Great update. Willow never really got a chance to tell Buffy how she felt but I guess the way she showed her was better then words. Update soon! Shadowcub 2007-11-18 id # 6846 Mal a giant jackass, I should dump him cause he's always gonna bring this up. Buffy gone get some Shadowcub 2007-11-18 id # 6847 Mal a giant jackass, (I) she should dump him cause he's always gonna bring this up. Buffy gone get some Ahn 2007-11-22 id # 6872 great update. I hope they make it out safely. Update soon. Howard R 2007-11-29 id # 6906 Wow! I really didn't expect Willow to be able to pull that off. Valyssia 2007-11-29 id # 6908 Still lovin' that thing you do, Whedonist. So, keep doin' it! That's an order. Val Ahn 2007-11-29 id # 6911 Glad to see the girls made it out safely. I can't wait for the next update! japmap japmap@yahoo.com 2007-12-01 id # 6917 Sweet, happy ending...nothing says Happy Holidays like warm, fuzzy, Wiffy goodness! Valyssia 2007-12-13 id # 6968 I absolutely love the Faith/ River dynamic. It's very interesting. It almost feels like an attempt at slashing the two, but then its innocent enough that it could just stand as it is. Funny that two characters so severely bend in different directions might actually be good for each other. I wouldn't have picked it which is probably why I find it so fascinating. Val Ahn 2007-12-13 id # 6972 Another great update. Ahn 2008-01-18 id # 7121 Glad to see an update. I was woundering about you. I can't wait to see what Giles and the others find out. Update soon. Howard R 2008-01-28 id # 7158 Excellent work! The romance parts and the story elements are proceeding apace quite nicely. Rin 2008-03-02 id # 7276 I knew I was missing something...it was this story! It never ended!! Good update!! Valyssia 2008-03-03 id # 7278 'Kay, so...I'm feeling your pain sweetie. I just read the latest installment of HappyD. thinking, "Oh COOLNESS, more new story!" and found that I'd read it a week ago or so. Not that it wasn't just as fun the second time through, but I get the pain. *Valyssia chuckles* The new was all rubbed off and I sniffled. Great idea tying the time travel to the demons BTW. Saves a ton of mathy badness on your part. The plot is actually shaping up beautifully. Very Whedonesque. Loving it! Val Ahn 2008-03-05 id # 7285 Looks like what Dawn siad might send Buffy in the opposite direction of Willow. Great update and can't wait for more. Ahn 2008-03-15 id # 7325 That was a good update. Onno 2008-03-15 id # 7326 Well Well Well. Do you know Brazilians speaks portuguese NOT SPANISH, don't you? Whedonist 2008-03-15 id # 7327 Sorry about that. *hangs head, shuffles feet* It was an oversite on my behalf which has been corrected... Thanks! W. Rin 2008-03-15 id # 7329 Yes, even you, Jayne...lol. I doubt that but hey...it could be! LOL. I like that River sacrificed herself like that...she always was quick on the uptake, so it doesn't surprise me that she already expected that would happen. Yay for her...and yay for Faith. And as always, yay for Buffy and Willow!! Rin 2008-03-25 id # 7377 Instagay drinking water...so that's why...LOL. It all makes sense now! Great story. Thank you for sharing that with us!!! Makes me want to watch Firefly and Serenity again. I'm starting a Buffy marathon from start to finish, so...it would only make sense to stay Whedon-ed and go into the future after that...and I don't just mean Fray. LOL.
