First I want to clarifyabout saying I wanted a cutscene, that wasn't what I meant.  The quick flash was enough, I think I just wanted a quick description of the event.

  I dug this story a bunch for the pure outlandishness, as well as the subtext of everybody's personal curses.  That was just an enjoyable, easy read.

Lots to love here.  Humour, action and Spuffiness.  I agree, the Sins fit the characters very well.

Beautiful story; loved how it ended. I also like that you didn't make Giles completely unaware that "something" was going on.

You did a great job with the requirements - with the exception of Tara and Dawn, all the sins fit the characters perfectly.   Even with the other two you did a fine job with how you used their sin.  I have enjoyed reading your work over the last few days. 

You did an amazing job with this story!  It was a pleasure to read from the beginning to the end.  Brava!

Thank you for stepping up to the plate and taking on this challenge.  What an enjoyable reading and food for thought  experience!

Very tidy ending - although I really would have liked to see Xander's reaction to Spuffy... ;-)

Well done!  You met the challenge well, using humor and good characterizations.

I think this was a very good way of ending/starting the relationship between Buffy and Spike.  I think it would have been out of character (as this story went) for Buffy to sudenly declare undying love for Spike when they clearly have a lot to work through.  very good story - enjoyed it throughout!    

Had 5 chapters to catch up on - every one of them excellent, I loved this story. Each sin described to a tee each scooby, and the explanation and ending were perfect. Great writing, hope you have some fics/ideas in that brilliant mind of yours.

  I would have liked to see an intervention of sorts between Dominic and Gabrial.  Like a cutscene of sorts, but this story has been immensely interestin, fun, and had a nice subtlety to all the madness at the same time.  Congrats on this.

Wish I could say more besides I absolutely loved it!!!!!!

What a fantastic way for the confrontation to play out!  Very befitting from a religious viewpoint.

Outstanding. Can't wait for the fallout. Everyone is going to have to face up to some very uncomfortable home-truths.

Now the spell is gone, but where do thej go from here?

Another amazing chapter!  Loved it!

Now they now what and how, just needs to find out who and how to solve the problem.

Text    Oh, good chapter. Lovely, lovely, lovely. But I can't believe she kicked him the balls. Brat!

Amazing chapter!  Well, he did say he'd rather be kneed in the balls than hit in the face again!  LOL

Spike got his wish from a previous chapter.  (Hee hee!)

Spike doesn't seem to have been worse, he can somewhat control himself. He told Buffy he loved her and she reacted as expected.

Oh dear - it's all gone wrong again... poor Spike.

Awwwwww, poor spikey!  Great chapter, more soon?

Wow. I just read the whole thing in one sitting. This is really really good! I shall bookmark & look forward to (hopefully frequent) updates.  Good stuff!

  You had a good bit of menace going on a couple of chapters back, and I liked the way you cooled it down, but it's back with a vengeance for this chapter.

     Oh, my! This is really getting scarey. But very good. The dialogue is great.
TextBuffymeetsSpike, are you from England? There isn't Oxfam in the U.S. It would be either GoodWell or Salvation Army. Or maybe Willow has traveled a lot; she is a rich girl.

ah...it's all coming to a head now!  Love it!

So Willow didn't only intensify the effects on Tara, but on all of them. This is becoming Very Nasty! More please........

Now they are even worse, I really hope Spike won't meet any females before they solve this.

Oh shit!!!!!!That was awesome !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't wait for the next update!!!

Text   That was funny, Spike saying he'd welcome a kick in the balls, just for a change of pace!
I don't which one is scarier right now, Buffy or Willow!
          I've been very curious as to whether Spike would dare to tell Giles about his own problem - or if he could somehow coordinate ideas with G. w/o actually saying what was his exact problem...

Loved Willow's line: "...So just point those glasses somewhere else!”  LOL!!!

It seems it's up to Giles to find the culprit.  The idea is in his head.  Hope he does not let it fly.  You nailed a sense of increasing building climax.  Something has to be done soon.

poor Tara, let's hope Giles can work something out and stop Willow from getting carried away. Nice to see Joyce confiding in Giles and now Spike realises something is wrong. Great chapter, thanks.

So glad Giles and Joyce both realise something is wrong - and now Spike too. Hope they figure it out before Willow does a spell that makes it all ten times worse... and what on earth do Jonathan and Andrew have planned?

TextHot! And sooo funny. Well, except for Tara; that's not funny.

Great chapter!

At least Giles is starting to see a problem, if he understand their differences in how they act he may get the right idea. 

ooh its all getting very tense, and loved the ending, she would just sock him on the nose! great writing still.

  Hahah, this is getting simultaneously funnier and darker the longer this goes on.

Loved the interaction between the characters!

"Angel in a tutu" Hilarious!   I wonder what instigator is up to right about now?

great update - title says it all, everyone is coming undone, and possibly coming together at the Magic Box for some enlightenment? I love this fic, said it before and will say it again, each sin so suits each scoob!

I love this story - your choice of which sin to ascribe to each character is intriguing. If you'd chosen differently the story would end up completely different. I can't help pondering the many alternatives... I can't wait for them all to get together and for somebody to notice that something is very wrong... and did Tara forget she's allergic to shrimp as we discovered in 'Triangle'?

They have a lot of problems but it's amusing to read.

   This is great.  Funny but then by turns a little disturbing and worrying.

  Great chapter.


 rather than chasing after him in that helicopter, calling his name. Good riddance.
That scene with Buffy chasing the Helicopter annoyed the hell out of me when I first watched it.  It was sorta demeaning to have her chasing after her boyfriend after he had just cheated on her.  I've only watched the episode once however so maybe it plays differently than I remember. (I really can't watch Riley-centric episodes, he puts me to sleep.)

dwiText     So, Giles is beginning to suspect something is off? Interesting that he thout all the women were PMSing. Actually, that would be a good explanation if this wasn't the Hellmouth.

Hot chappie! 

Yeah!  Rocks off!

ooh everyone is getting worse - and wow thanks for the Buffy/Spike outing! Just the way it would end!

Giles seems to be the most likely to figure this out.

Text   Ha-ha. I didn't see THAT coming! I've read a lot of stories in which Spike gets laid, but this is a first with a pros! Good one, tho!

Great job turning Lust against him! 

This is miserable for Spike.  My one point of contention is the 70s were the height of sexual promiscuity IMHO not the 60s.   As I recall, the pill had only just begun to spread in the mid-late 60s.   The 60s were more idyllic but the 70s was the decade of free love, swinging etc.  

A big problem, notjust for Spike but others too.

  This is really very good.  Your story has sort of a British Farce bent to it, as well as lapoooning the characters a little bit and keeping up with the themes of the show as a whole.
  
  The religious fanatic at the begining could be a truly frightening villain if inserted into a more thriller/horror type of story, I like him a lot so far.  It has also got me thinking that Caleb could have been a phenominal villain if treated differently. (Small digression there.)

  Cool story so far, Wrathful Buffy was remarkably entertaining.

Text    I couldn't leave a review for the last chapter because the words to type disappeared. I did something, but I don't know what. This is agood story; I really like it. But another person's gluttony really isn't exciting

Poor Tara!  Loved the part with the cookies, so cute!

You are really fleshing out the consequences of these sins rather nicely.   Poor Tara, this is so unlike her.   When will the weight gain show?  However, Willow is just ramped up Willow.

now I've got the munchies - so good work on the description of Tara's affliction, and Willow really can convince herself that what she is doing is all for the good.

Love how you're weaved together the previous chapter!  Brilliantly done!

Excellent chapter! 

This is just so clever.  Like it a lot.

Giles has some things to think about, but it can't be easy to figure it out.

Great descriptions of Buffy's and Dawn's sins!

oh yes, Buffy as the incredible angry woman, watch out everyone. Liked the little bit of Xander action, and have got to wonder if Giles and Joyce will get together on this.

Angry Buffy could be a lot of trouble.

Text   Wow. That's a nasty villian we have here - someone no one would suspect. A "normal" crazy.

I loved the movie Se7en!  I am not a religious person, but strangely I find the history and meanings behind religion and its practices very interesting. (go figure)  I'm already extremely intrigued where you're going to take this! 

Loving the premise!

what a great start - each sin fits each scooby so well, what can I say hooked already, roll on next chapter.

what a clever idea!  I look forward to reading more.

Interesting, let's see where this will lead.
