I thought *I* had been mean to them, but you've taken the basic story to whole new delicious and agonizing levels. You did an absolutely incredible job with one of my favorite stories, and I'm thrilled.

Thank you!!

Wow. And ow. Very dark, very painful and interesting that the harder, colder, more alone Buffy whose last contact with her previous Sunnydale life had just died at her hands, couldn't bring herself to kill that one last person. Even to save the world. So very, very different from the timeline we know.

That was awful, in a deliciously wonderful way.

That's awesome. Chilling and spare and vivid and heartbreaking and so damn cool. I particularly admire the showdown with the Borg and the description of Buffy feeling the constructed memory taking over.

*whimper*

This was fantastic. Wrenching and gutty, and you did what you had to do with that storyline-- while connecting this so much harder Buffy with the Buffy that canon gave us.
