“Think of it as a sneak-peek, not a farewell.”

Very sweet, and I enjoyed the myth that you chose.

I loved the Ragnarok theme you chose for the apocalypse.

This line? “There’s only so many ways to end the world before you have to start recycling ideas.” Angel glanced out the window at the black sky. “Though… the moon and stars disappearing is a new one.”

*chuckle* I love the dry humour in the midst of all hell breaking loose.

I'm glad you rose to the challenge. So nice to read a good Buffy and Angel fic.

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Dry humor is fun. Plus, it wouldn't be them without jokes during the apocalypse.

Nice! I really liked your use of mythology, and the way you brought us in with Angel carrying a wounded Buffy was quite gripping. Very cool!

A super story - thanks for a great read!

Ragnarok is a great apocalypse myth to choose - are you going to give us the next part? :~)) I'd love to see the Giants riding in on the glaciers...

I enjoyed the humour of this. And my favourite line? 'A kiss for your thoughts?'

Super stuff.

Thanks for the great comment! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

I always loved Ragnarok, so it was awesome to get to use it. I'd love to write the next part, so if I can motivate myself to write it, I will.

I’m pleased that we inspired you to write this story! I liked the way you caught our attention straight away with the entrance, and I liked the Buffy/Angel humour peppering this apocalyptic world. Interesting tale you choose to use for this, too.
