Gotta say, I like where this story's heading. Nicely done!

I just started reading this story and I think it is brilliant. A lot of things to wonder like why Jess hates Spike, what happened to Lieuko, how will Buffy adjust? Who was Xander's second wife? Will Buffy see willow in her new form? what happened to Anya? etc etc.
I really liked the story and can't wait to read more of this.

I'm really liking this story but if it turns out that Spike & Faith had a romantic relationship I won't be able to finish this fic. Please I beg you - do not have them involved!!

Man! I'm hooked. I think these may be my favorite kinda stories. The ones where Buffy comes back years down the road. Probably cuz I'm such a sucker for angst.

Anyway, this is all looking great & I hope to hear more soon! :)

excellent, thank you. some answers, more questions. love it. willow being a vengeance demon is not a surprise; xander is. i know it was not the reaction you were looking for, but lmao at giles being the father of xander's son.

wow! i so wasn't expecting the jess Thing, and with every chapter mer questions emerge . this is going pretty damm cool.

Whoa! I do think Willow had all the natural talents for the gig *G*. Looking forward to more reveals about what's gone on in Buffy's absence.

Maybe this Katya should come back to give Buffy a run for the money with Spike...nothing like a bit of competition after all.

Wonder why Jess hates Spike so much (and why Spike got his soul in this universe).

Point is I am intrigued completely.....more please *G*.

Interesting stuff so far. Shall eagerly await more. ;)

Just started reading this fic. Very interesting. Looking forward to more.

Wow, didn't really see well, any of that happening, though it makes total sense. Wonderful.

awesome, love it, please update soon

very good, looking forward to the next update

Very nicely done - got some info out, showed us how Xander has grown up, and let some hints about others things we need know.:)

So she thought Jess was a girl, up until she thought that I thought he was a guy, glad to see I was right in my thinking you never know these says.

So Spikes girlfriend left him a month ago because she believed he was still in love with the slayer and Spike thought to himself he still was just not the one she was thinking, was she a vamp and I take it Spike loved more than one slayer or did he try to move his obession of Buffy to another.

Dawns dead, thats so sad.

Anya cheated on Xander with Giles? I'm more of a xanya fan than ganya but I can live with it. What's Jess' problem with Spike?

Wow - unexpected twists, especially given the fact that all of these events happened in the past. I like the way you are weaving in bits from t the show and giving us the 'what could have happened'. This is all very well done and I'm looking forward to more.

Love it!

First, the tension between Buffy & Spike? Well done. Good that he didn't confess, and I like the little tremor that Buffy felt, too.

Not sure I follow all the backstory on the Slayers, but it seems like that's supposed to be a little mysterious for now.

Nice twist with Anya/Giles, and Willow is a vengeance demon? Of course she is ...

Waiting for more!

Wow, I think there are more questions now then answers. Can't wait to find out what they all are. Hope Buffy finds out about Spike's soul soon and I want to find out why he got it and when. So Buffy has one family noe but what's left of the scoobies. What Willow did to Warren was right up there there wasn't it. I guess with Buffy gone, there was no one to keep her grounded this time. Really like how the story's coming along, thanks.

I can see Willow leaving or being left by Tara if Tara had complained about too much magic use. And I can see Kennedy jumping right in there with the "want, take, have," too. Decent exposition without being too "This Is What Has Come Before."

Oh WOW!!!! Now things are looking interesting. It's good to see Giles had it in him, even though I cannot imagine him sleeping with a married woman! Still, sad that Xander thinks Willow being demony is sadder than Giles and Anya. I am wondering, did Spike and Faith fall for each other? Is that who Buffy smelled? And can I just say how sorry I am for the Scoobies that Kennedy got called? And the chemistry between Buffy and Spike in this-lemme hear a woo and a hoo! I thought the chemistry in Getting All Chosen was hot, but you just went and raised the bar a little higher! I have to warn you, if you bring back the pimp chain, my laptop is going to burst into flames--the fiery kind, not the mean-review kind. One last thing, then I'll go my merry way: I love that "swishy coat, fade into the dark of night thing." And was Giles Jr. checking Buffy out? Hate to diss on those Biles/Guffy fans out there, but squick. Ok, I'm shutting up now. Love the story!!

Very cool! I want to know what's happened and if Willow will make an apperance. Please update soon!

I like that Xander bonded with Ripper , jr and loves him like his own.

And I don't see what Willow saw in Kennedy either.She was obnoxious.

I thought this was a great chapter and explained alot and I want to know more about Spike and Jesse's animosity and where it started and why. This is a really good story and I am looking forward to more! :)
