I forgot to say I love the Oz/Tara thing too. Very different from anything I've read so far but it feels right. You are such a good writer!

domestic spike...so cute...hope jenner can be trusted not to try to hurt faith, or anyone else...though i'm not sure yet...great chapter

CH 52 - lovely chapter - I hope giles and anya end up together - but you know me I want everyone i like to be paired off and happy. Great chapter!

Sorry that your muse hadn't been cooperating I'm just so thankful that you're still plugging away at it. I've had a few stories that were left abandoned, some have been waiting 8 months for an updated and all I can do is every few months go to the website and let them know that they're not forgotten and have someone waiting for them to continue they're work. I salute your tenacity.

Glad you're back! love this story cant wait to see what goodies you have in store for Angel and Willow!!

Always happy to see an update of this one. No matter how long it is inbetween, I'll always be here to read the next chapter!

I just wanted to say, I absolutely love this story. I just found Orgins on Monday through the Fang Fetish Awards site and I've been reading it every spare minute I could find. :) I love everything you've done, the twists and turns and surprises in the story. Please keep up the wonderful work and I'm looking forward to the next posting. Thank you for a truly terrific story. :)

great chapter

I was sooo happy to see an update! You are still doing such a great job with this story, and I eagerly await the next chapter.

Excellent story all the way from beginning to current chapter--please keep this up. Very well done and great original plot.

This was fantastic and you won't be getting rid of me anytime soon. I love this story too much to not see it end. WOW! Great stuff!! Can't wait till the next one!!

Still with you, and still loving this story.  Trust me when I say that I *completely* understand fluctuations between updates.  Take your time, hon.  You're chapters are always worth waiting for.  Best to you!

Definitely still with you. Great update.

Well worth the wait. I love this story. I especially enjoy the family moments with Spike, Buffy, Dawn and Connor...write it in your time.

Excellent chapter and I appreciate anything that you can write, whenever you get around to writing it. I really like Jenner and Lawson and am so glad that you brought Lawson back. The idea of another Slayer/Vampire pair is great fun, and should get Giles thinking that perhaps that's the way it's supposed to be! Thanks again.

Dont worry we are all still with you! Even with the break between the updates, we understand that the authors of our favorite stories actually have lives and such to conduct, lol.

Can I just say that I love Faith is attracted to Jenner? Loved the irony of that as well as the fact that not all the vampires are on Angelus side, cause that would be bad news.

Cant wait for more!

Love this story. Always happy to see an update. Thank you.

Your story his fantastic and you really don't need to apologize because the updates are worth waiting for! Love the dialog between Faith and Jenner!

excellent update, and the time between updates is a lovely excuse to reread every fascinating word. love the fic, love the effort. thank you the the fine read.

Thrilled to see an update from you!! Origins is without a doubt one of my all-time favorite tales out there. I really appreciate an author who takes the time to craft a storyline rather than relying on smut. Origins is an epic tale in my book. Go you!

so sorry for the writer's block but I am so glad you are back!!! I am so in love with this story and I am at least glad that they are now on full alert with Willow and Angelous. And how about Faith making the conscious decision to go with the flow and help. Loving the interaction between Faith and Jenner. OZ IS BACK!!!! Anya as always great. And Spike is back to being full family man... so much in this chapter.

i have no problem waiting for updates for this story...i love every chapter!

I've been following this since you started writing it. The only things I can say are "Thank You" for letting us read and enjoy your hard work and PLEASE continue!!!

Very glad to see more of this fic.
Great work. Can't wait for more.

Great chapter! I love having Faith here, and the story is moving along really well. Good work:)

Wonderful chapter, Nia. I completely understand and can sympathize with you on the difficulty in writing - it's how Spike's Way is for me at the moment. I know where it needs to go, but getting it there is a battle.

RE: this chapter -- I'm amused by Faith & Jenner. Although he was only given a brief mention, I LOVE LAWSON! Drusilla's fit and how she fought madly against Angelus was beautifully written. I *heart* Oz & Tara's bond - and love how despite having his jaw wired shut, he's very much an active presence in the house. Wesley's so thoughtful about getting cleaning up the bathroom. That is something that neither Buffy nor Dawn (or really Spike for that matter) need to see upon returning home. Really brilliant.

*hugs*

I love this story. I've reread it twice waiting for updates, so I'm very glad that inspiration has struck you once again.

LOL, this fic is perfect.
