So much better than the comics!

I will gladly accept your compliment while doubting its weight... 'Better than the comics' covers a whole lot of ground. *g*

You made me smile at Harmony and Wesley, you made me sit up with pride when Buffy got back in the game, and you brought me to tears at the end.

I'm glad; I knew you didn't want me to kill off Gunn, but in my head it's been a done deal for ages, so it was important to make it matter when it came.

The epitaphs for this should be fun, I think. At least three, maybe four, and we'll see some of the repercussions playing out. I love these characters!

Awesome. :)

Thank you! I hope it's a worthy Nertz entry, in a hugely good cause.
