Buffy is a bitch, Spike better not forgive her easily. good story so far, cant wait for the sequel(unless its alrdy written)
Thank you. And sadly, I'm not finished writing the sequel yet. It's coming along, just a lot slower than I'd like.

Sorry about my little snit earlier.  It was the shock of the ending.  If I hadn't enjoyed the ride so much I wouldn't have been so shocked. at it's abrupt finish.  Let me tell you why I enjoyed this fic so much.  I loved the way you portrayed the return of Queen C.  I think Cordelia is a much neglected character; her moral growth is enormous and her courage immense.  I missed her bitterly when she was written out of AtS.  Your comments on the different dynamics of the Scoobies and the AI gang are very insightful - I've always felt that the fudging of Cordy's age in AtS was beneficial to the relationships as her growth and maturity was given the implied time to happen.   The warmth and compassion of Lorne was a delight too - another character I'd love to see more of in other fics.  Anyway, the introduction of the Winchesters was  cheeky and charming.  The link is a little tenuous right now, but I'm desperate to see where you go with it.  (Can you explain , perhaps, why Dean walks like that?)   So, in other words, show some compassion. Take pity on us. Write the bloody sequel!   
ps I'm English.  I'm allowed and expected to say 'bloody.'  
     
That's okay. Your snit made me giggle. And since I've had the same reaction to stories I like just ending, I understand completely. :)

I missed Cordelia as well. Her character leaving the show left a big hole. I liked her brutal honesty on Buffy, and I loved her growth on Angel. I just couldn't leave her out of this fic. As for Lorne, he's just awesome! Lorne needs more love.

And I know the link between the Buffyverse and the Winchesters is tenous, it will get fleshed out in the sequel. It's just that Connor and Sam both went to the same college at the same time, and I'm just a little obessed with Supernatural. I couldn't resist throwing them in. :D

And the sequel is being written. Saddly, it's going a lot slower than I'd like, but it is being written. :)

By the way- When you asked this, (Can you explain , perhaps, why Dean walks like that?) , could you drop me a line and explain this? I looked back and I can't figure out what you're referring to. (And I'd just email you if I could find your name on this site.)

Is there a sequel?  Dear lord let there be a sequel.  If not you are going to hell, you know.  Around about the seventh circle, I think.   Tell me how to get to the sequel!
I would tell you how to get to the sequel, but it's not finished yet. :P

Honestly, I'm still working on it. Thank you for the reviews! :)

Read your story a second time and I hope that you have started that sequel 'cause it would be a real pity to leave this tale unfinished -
There will be a sequel. I just wanted to get FWtBT finished first. So don't worry. I refuse to leave a story unfinished if I can help it. :)

Wonderful story - so glad that you are doing a sequel and that we will be having Supernatural Folk with us along for the ride -

Hope that you give Spike more time to develop his own place in the world, sperate and fully equal - and I sincerely hope that our little miss buffy makes her entrance into the world as a woman on a path of wisdom and not just as a warrior -

Please try to bring more of Lorne into this story, he has such great potential as a character and yet is so overlook in buffyverse and angelverse ff. Look forward to Connor's development as well as Dawn -

Would be fun to have an adventure with Sam, Dean, Connor and Dawn as a spin off - maybe with some Cordelia and Lorne in the story - I can always hope.

Well this was a happy suprise. :)

I'm glad you liked it. I had been stuck on how to end this fic for months, and it finally opened up when I added in Sam and Dean.

I fully plan on having Spike find his own place in the world and have Buffy do some growing up. I think they both need it.

I'll certianly see about having more of Lorne. I just love him. :D

As for the spin off idea, I'll keep it in mind for later. ;)

Thank you for the review and the wonderful suggestions. :)

That was excellent. An emotional rollar coaster - some of the characters I want to smack, others I want to hug, and some I want to do both at the same time! lol

I love that you're bringing Sam and Dean into this, btw. Should be interesting! I look forward to the sequel.
I'm glad you liked it. :)
Connor and Sam both went to Stanford, so I couldn't resist adding them in. :D

Anyway, now that this is finished I should be able to plan out the sequel.
Thank you for the lovely review. :)

That was great, but left at a cliffie. I want you to write the sequel soon, but I also don't feel like I can wait for another chapter of 'For Whom The Bell Tolls'. I feel bad that Buffy and Spike never made up.
I'm glad you liked it. I had always intended to write a sequel, so this ending was going to be left open. As for "Tolls" I'm working on the next chapter as I write this. Hopefully I'll have it finished soon.
Thank you for the review. :)

oh no I feel so sad for Buffy. They never patched things up, but I wonder why he left the skull ring.
I feel bad for her too, but Spike had to get his rear far away from Wolfram and Hart. ( Connor too.)The reason behind the skull ring will be revealed in the sequel. Thank you for the reviews. :)

Intriguing ending. I'm glad there's a sequel. I was just thinking of this story last night.
I'm glad you liked it. Now that it's done, I can actually outline the sequel.
Thank you for the review. :)

awwww!!! but you can't just leave it there with no definite plans to continue any time soon!!! *whines* that was an incredible chapter, and the way it got left could so lead them to believe he's been dusted!!! noooo!!!! this story was so amazing, love, and i can't wait to see the rest when you start it :)
Don't worry DoS. I can rarely leave a story alone. :) On the plus side, now that it's done, I can outline the sequel. :D

I'm glad you liked my story, and thank you for the review. :)
