I'm seriously impressed with this story and it just made my personal favs list. I emailed myself a link and your nom de plume just so I can' accidently miss the ending. Wow doesn't cover how wonderful it is and I catch myself holding my breath a lot. No suggestions for future work cuz obviously you know what your are doing. Can't wait to see how it all ends but in the meantime I am going to read anything else you have ever written. Hope the review helps you as much as the story made my days better. Lorias

Who is Robbie? I have been wondering about this for a while.

awesome chapter! im excited for the spell to be broken :)

Great chapter with so much happening. I'm very curious as to what has happened in the future. The situation with both Jenner and Lawson is very interesting -- so many elements in this story hook you. (I'm going to use Gail S from now on so as not to cause any confusion since there appears to be another Gail sometimes reviewing.) Thanks as always for the story.

Excellent chapter loaded with lots of juicy details. I especially enjoyed the activity in the Magic Box . Anya's exasperation with the cost of all the spell ingredients was very amusing, as was her jealousy of Jonathan joining the hunt. Kirsten's ability to fold time upon itself due to her "hybrid" nature was a good explanation of her time travel.
I'm really looking forward to the conversation between Lawson, Spike and Buffy. Nice job interweaving all the plot threads in this chapter.

I absolutely can't wait to see the conversation between Lawson, Spike, and Buffy.
I enjoyed the resolution with Kristen, about her 'sneaking out'. A good scene.
Giles, Wesley, Faith, and Jonathon. Now there's a team. I like the inclusion of Jonathon in a positive and active role in this fic. I always liked his character, and your idea to make Willow's spell similar in nature to his was brilliant.
Eagerly anticipating more.

You did an excellent job conveying Buffy's heart break at the hospital. Spike's arrival was perfectly timed. I love the image of an oblivious Willow being stalked by the hounds. I can't wait for her fall. Jenner's observations of Lawson are intriguing - just what has Lawson been up to all this time?

wow. so much has happened in just those two days that i'm winded. i know i've said this before, but i'm going to keep saying it until there's no reason to: poor dawnie. i'm glad you updated and i really hope you feel better soon. better than better. i hope you feel great soon. and now, back to the story. maybe it's been a while since i've seen it, i don't know, but who's jenner? oh, and i loved how you put lawson and spike together after angel made them both get off the sub. i just hope he finds what he's looking for in the way of information from spike before buffy dusts him. hell, who knows, he may even help them in the fight against angel. and willow. it's all coming to a head for her and she doesn't even know it. i feel for tara knowing how betrayed she's bound to feel once the spell is broken. i wonder what the tracker dogs and huntsman has in store for her. hmm...you just keep me wondering, which is totally of the good.

tgreat update. Sad to see Kirsten go, but nice to see that maybe the Willow's spell is on it's way to being broken. *fingers crossed*
Can't wait for more!

Date: 01/25/2006 - 08:20 pm Title: Golden sunsets and black storms
Gasp! Umm, love it, write more please! :-) Thank you for the more you've already written!

Date: 01/25/2006 - 07:16 pm Title: Golden sunsets and black storms
More, more I need and want more...........I always thought Angel was a bad cruel man for what he did to Lawson......for having a soul he was rather souless with him.........

Date: 01/25/2006 - 06:57 pm Title: Golden sunsets and black storms
Wow, this story is the most brilliant piece of work I've read in the Buffy Realm!!!! O.O I love the plot you've worked out...wow....
Sorry, 'bout not reviewin' the rest o' the chapters, I really can't complain about anything. I sure admire your work though, keep 'em coming and keep on writin'!!!!

First: Congrats! Now to the reading: ~ Hehe Anya *gg* It's always fun to read. *Sniff* So Kirsten had to go. She has a nifty gift. And Willow has changed Tara's feelings. Always with magic when something doesn't go as it should. Argh.. now I'm wondering what Lawson wants! Cliffhanger again. :) Till next one!

Date: 01/25/2006 - 04:08 pm Title: Golden sunsets and black storms
First of all, I am happy to see the Magic Box crew working together. And how about Anya being jealous that Giles wanted Jonathon to help him. But I can't wait for the veil to be lifted off of eveyrone. And what other kind of abilities does all of the children have? Now why won't Kristen tell Buffy and Spike about that other someone special?? LOVE LOVE LOVE the update on the family interaction and how is Lawson going to get out of this mess? I hope Tara realizes who really loves her when this spell is all over. HAPPY HAPPY for the last update.

Date: 01/25/2006 - 12:49 pm Title: Golden sunsets and black storms
Oh gosh...i hate to make predictions, but damn am I excited!! I am so feeling the love for Sam and his desire for love and family. So much like Spike. I can't wait to see his reactions to Buffy, Dawn, and Connor.
Oh Oz, how I love him so. He loves Tara and while in a million years I would have never imagined them together, their relationship and its evolution have me enraptured. *squees*
You have set the stage now and things are falling right into place. I am so excited for the next chapter. I love how everything is coming to head. This was a wonderful bridge to pull some more ends together and I love it. Thank you for updating so quickly!
Favorite Parts:
Neither one of them spoke, waiting for Kirsten’s next move. She stepped forward to hug them one more time and smiled nervously when Spike whispered, “I’ll see you after, bit.”
Hiding the frisson of fear creeping down her back, she stood away from them, and ducked her head, unwilling to meet his intense gaze. “Okay Daddy.”
-and-
Meaningless sex was fulfilling if that’s all he was looking for, but Sam was tired of multiple partners and no real intimacy. If he was human, he’d think about settling down and getting married, but that fate had been taken away from him. Hell, right now he’d be happy with a dog for companionship.
Maybe Spike had some insight for him – something – a reason.
He’d come too far not to try.
Wonderful update, can't wait for more!!
Cheers!
Nina
Author's Response: Two gorgeously long reviews from you for the last two chapters -- thank you so much for taking the time to let me know how the story is affecting you. It means a lot to me to see -- and to have someone quote me as well. *vbg*
There's still a whole lot of story left to tell. . . . . so keep an eye out.

oooooooooo....my favorite author posted my favorite story!!!! congrats on your latest awards.
glad they figured out what they needed to do the spell. nice to see johnathan being useful. anya is so damn funny...cracks me up. her and giles make a great couple. i
ll miss kirsten but yea, she had to go home. like the super kids!!!!! sam made the right desision to go to spike. he seems to have a great connection to him and i bet that will be helpful in the fight. now they gotta get that spell done so willow can get her butt kicked and poor tara. shes gonna go ape when she figures out what has been done to her and everyone else. and dawn to b/c it was b/c of willows meddling that got casey killed. oh and can't wait to see the hounds again. great chapter. you moved everything forward flawlessly as always. can't wait for more. :)

Seems like the shadows will be given light before long. the lies will be brokend and the consequences of actions set into motion. I can't wait. The scene with Kirtsten was so touching. She is so much like her parents, taking the risks that are needed to save one of her own. Damn the girl is talented.
Now was is Sam Lawson up to? Will he help Spike decifer what has been going on around them.? I feel Angel's army going to pot in a hurry too. This was a fantastic chapter. You wrapped up Kiirsten's thread so wonderuflly. Giving the closer that was needed by the character's and the readers. Thank for you being such an amazing writer. YOu are awesome. CONGRATS on the new awards too.

Great Chapter Nia

WHOA!!! That was freaking awesome!!! Man, this story just gets better and better!! So glad that Lawson's decided to seek Spike. And the spell's finally gonna get done...thank goodness cause I want some butt kickage. Ok, the buildup is just fab, so no rushing on my part.
I love all the little details you give and background info....just yells at you to continue reading cause you know it just gets better. Oooh, now I can't wait for the next chapter...especially after that cliffy.
Love it!!

Date: 01/24/2006 - 10:26 pm Title: Golden sunsets and black storms
This is gonna be a interesting convo. Spike as unlife coach.And the imprinting thing makesw sense too. It would explain why he was so stuck on Dru for so long.

Date: 01/24/2006 - 10:19 pm Title: Golden sunsets and black storms
sorry to see Kristen go and im really looking forward to the interation between spike and lawson. I cant wait until the spell is broken.
