I am greatly in awe of the amount of high quality writing you can produce in such a short span of time. *grovels before you*

thank you so much. Right now, I just want to get the story done and over with

I really did want this story to be about Angel's soul and Xander's soul and the fact that both of these men needed to grow up. Xander has gone from a boy to a man, and Angel is gone from someone who hides from the big moral choices to someone who steps up to the bat. I'm really glad you're enjoying it

That is seriously how Glory should have gone down in the show. And poor Joyce. But consort!Xander, yay!

it is sometimes a little tiresome the way they always wait until the last minute, isn't it? I'm all for ambushing the bad guy early

I stand (or grovel humbly at your feet) with Gabrielle. Amazing! Homeric even!

Glad to be rid of Glory, I want to say "so easily" but it hasn't been easy. Actually, I am glad to be rid of whiny Ben as well.

Half hoped, with Xander, that Joyce was still with them. But that's the way the Canon fires I suppose.

well, thank you. I definitely wouldn't call it Homeric, but it's certainly long, and I had a lot of fun writing it. I'm also even more happy that it's over. I would have saved to waste if there was any logical reason why the changes in this universe would have led to Joyce being saved. I just don't think they would have. So despite the fact that Joyce is one of my favorites, the canon fired

Noooo not Joyce *expletive* I so wanted you to find a way to prevent this :(

I did wonder how you would have them defeat Glory without the glowy thing and the troll god's hammer - it was almost anticlimactic. Now it's time for our heroes to lick their wounds and settle into their new relationship. You write this is winding down but there is still Jenny on the loose and will the truth about the Key/Dawn ever come out?

As always more when you can (though you may feel like taking a break after 2 chapters in one day).

I know! You know that I've saved her in other universes. If Spike was around more often or if Angel had stayed in town, maybe they would have seen her illness. Maybe they would have saved her. However, in this universe, I took most of the supernatural creatures out of Sunnydale. They weren't there to warn Joyce, so logically, I just couldn't save her. Sorry
