Great last scene, beautifully phrased.

worms, or butterflys.


Well...that sums it up, to my mind. It's nice to hear some hope from the postchosen stories, some indication that without the hellmouth ZBuffy, Xander, Willow and Giles at least can be their first/second/third season selves, not their fractured defeated season 7 selves.

Beautiful, hopeful, kinda sad. In all, perfect way to end.

A beautiful short piece. I loved the way you treated them after the end of a series we all came to love. It's good to know that some things don't change between our Scoobies, even after Sunnydale.
Thank you for providing the closure that we never really got from Buffy's little half-smile in the show.

I have just discovered your stories through the I like them a lot. Not only are the situations believable, the characters sound real in my head. I am SO VERY PLEASED that you either have naturally excellent spelling and grammar or the good sense to have someone proofread for you.

Wow. I think that's the first post-Chosen story
where it actually seemed likey they had won.

Oh! I really like your story!! Bravo!
I will read the sequels now.

:) thanks for adding this little ending on to the end of buffy. it was very enjoyable, especially the ending. the feelings of hope and contentment translated well across the page.

Very good. You had the perfect balance of saddness about the past and longing for what the future would bring. I liked it a lot.

Omg, this is so good!

Spare and moving. Thank you.

From the first to the last lines, this was a stunningly beautiful story. It emits a tangible sort of hope.

"Hope," said Willow. "It's... hope."

*Smile.*

Great storytelling you have here. Sad, but hopeful. Hopeful, but not sickeningly sweet or unrealistic.

This is really an excellent story, and a rare hopeful story amid the angst-ridden Buffyfics. I'm excited to see that you have two sequels.
Thank you.

This was so good. I really love it! Can't wait to go read the sequels.
