"Umpires are people too!"

Funniest line I've read in a long time! And I can just hear Anya say it, too.

wow scary joyce and once again willow screws up a spell nothing seems to change there then oh by the way so glad joyce fed spike last chap seeing as no one had fed him for about three days loving it so far

great chapter

Bravo Joyce - deadly and eloquent!! I hope she gives Giles loads more tomorrow! And don't get me started on Willow!!

WOW! Big shocker here...Willow blaming someone else for her mistake?? NO, THAT never happens (please note the dripping sarcasm)! I wonder what Willow did to make Buffy win, did she invoke something? Maybe she did truly bring out the first slayer. Off to read more!

Great chapter. Could Willow really be the cause of this? How will they ever find a solution if Willow won't be honest. Good writing of Joyce. Please update soon.

Aha! The truth begins to emerge! *hugs* great update! I can't wait to see what will happen next!

You go, Joyce. Giles needs his butt kicked on a regular basis. And, you'd think Willow would give up on spells after all the times she's screwed up. Love it.

Aha! I figured it was something like that..and the rationalizations just keep piling up...the genesis of an addiction. Love the phone conversation between Joyce and Giles. Nothing like an angry mom to grease the wheels.

God. Someone jsut needs to tie tht girl up and keep her away from everyone so she can't hurt people. And I don't mean Buffy.

great chapter again.

you know what willow needs a truth spell put on her or they are never never going to get the whole story. my goodness. Good chapter

Oh good lord, not a scooby power trip... *grumbles* if you won't let us maim joyce or the brat, could we at least maim the scoobies? *puppy dog eyes*

Joyce is awesome!

And oh, god...control-freak Willow...like there isn't enough to deal with. Stupid girl...you can't tweak spells!! They were written how they were written for a reason!

Oh ho. Very well done, although frankly, Joyce let him off lite by just calling. And now Willow. This is just getting uglier and uglier. Frankly, the way I see it is Giles will, eventually and with much dragging of feet, come around and start acting more humane, but Willow is going to end up the ultimate bad guy here. Am I right? :)

damb Willow and her tweaking I just want to strip her of her powers most the time at least untell she grows up enough to be responsibe for her actions!

More soon please :)

before someone got hurt.

Because, of course, Spike isn't a someone! Grrr Giles....I'd like a shot at reaming him. Go Joyce! About time some folks put Giles in his place.

And of course there's Willow.....sigh....

Excellent.

Giles so deserves to be raked over the coals by Joyce. Go , Joyce!

I hope Anya's realizing that she deserves to be treated a lot better than she is by Xander.

And Willow NEVER admits she's wrong , no matter how big the damage.

Way to go, Joyce! Always knew she could kick butt, and Giles is seriously in need of an attitude adjustment. Speaking of which, once again, Willow "messes around" with a spell, and guess what? Something goes wrong, and she lies and denies all responsibility. Boy, have you got these characters down pat! As usual, I'm waiting on pins and needles for the next update!

great read. giles! (same as last review) good job joyce. please let her do again with a large audience. and it appears the witch has done it again. thanks for the wonderful read.

please tell me willow is gonna get her ass kicked... preferably by buffy AND joyce...

Go Joyce!
