I really love this story, its one of the best cross-over fics I've read, if not the best. And I've read a lot. I like how you didn't deviate too much from the canon for either BTVS or SG-1, and how well you portrayed the characters and the interaction between them. I love your ending and just wanted to say that this is a really well-though out, well-written, deliciously lengthy crossover fic that I'll always remember. I'll be sure to check out your other fics, too.

This is excellent. Thank you for writing this. You did a brilliant job. :)

This is awesome. Xander's messages are great. And the political intrigue stuff, too. I'm only up to episode four of actually watching Stargate (although I've been reading fic ages), so a lot of it a little outside my normal working knowledge, but is thickening the plot very well.

Wait, there was something else I wanted to say about the Jack v. Giles in the last chapter and the idea that Xander and Jack could be friends, rather than having a parental relationship, that Xander's obviously has a comfortable parent-aged people, and that was very well shown in Jack's jealous of Giles.

Jack v. Giles is awesome. (I'd really like some Jack/Giles now, I might have to write that. Also, its pinging my Giles/Xander buttons, which is fun). I loved Buffy's threat and its incomprehensibility to Jack. And I very much appreciate how difficult you're making it for everyone, realistically, so. Also, Xander and Dawn's friendship is lovely.

The clash of the secrets is going to be fun to see played out.

Ah, the moment of sweet deliverance! BEST CHAPTER EVAR!

Seriously, you really really took your time with the mundane buildup. Which, while interesting, is not what anyone watches BtVS or SG1 for. But this chapter was perfectly paced and concluded. The "collision" between the stories is finally played out.

I feel so satisfied, and excited for the next chapter. It's a good thing this fic was completed years ago, so I only have to wait until I finish this review to receive instant gratification. Nicely done, nicely done.

Good fic. More Daniel and Sam would have been nice, but it was a hard enough fic to tackle as it was, and you performed close to admirably.

The door opened and slammed shut. Quiet. For all of a second.

"Colonel O'Neill. Wonderful to see you alive and well." And the G-man smiled warmly in a way that Xander still found both surprising and heartening. It was like the two parts of his life were coming together at last.

Xander told his dad that he drove like a werewolf on crack.

Who'd have thought that Xander talked about him to Giles of all people? And that Giles was happy about it? And that Giles would tell him? And that he was happy Jack was in his son's life?
When Jack moved to the den to watch TV until it was time to go, he was still grinning.

please tell me I’m hallucinating,” he glanced at Thor.
Jack grinned at the confused string of words. “You’re not hallucinating.”
“Okay. Right. You sure? ‘Cause I’d be happy to be.”

“Ah.” Thor nodded. “Then will you write for me?”

“No. No, it’s not.” Jack grinned. He couldn’t believe it. He just . . . it topped seeing Kinsey miserable. ‘My dad.’ He hadn’t heard those words said like that since Charlie. He’d wondered if he ever would again, even once Xander had come into his life. And now he had.

Jack tore his eyes away from the screen long enough to say, “I didn’t watch Star Wars till Teal’c rented it.”

“Hey, Dad, can you grab some napkins?”

“So how do I know you won’t hurt them?”

“I control your paycheck.”

“We don’t get paid.”

“But when we do, I’ll control it.”

“No, the election. That’s the second one I’ve missed,” she whined. “That’s so not fair! I’ve got rights to exercise here, but no, too late! They’re gonna get out of shape and flabby and then where will I be? Stupid country,” she grumbled.

“Who dares summon me?” a deep booming voice echoed through the room. Xander rolled his eye at all the dramatics. “Bow before the great and powerful – oh, it’s you,”

“Are you sure you don’t want to work for me?” D’Hoffryn asked Willow. “Christmas and Easter off.”
...
When was the last time an enemy of ours offered us Christmas and Easter off just to switch sides?”
“When was the last time Hammond gave us Christmas and Easter off?” Carter asked back dryly.
“Good point. Think we should switch sides?” asked Jack.

The guy who assassinated Garfield?” Daniel askd
What? thought Xander. “Garfield? Garfield isn’t dead,” he said. In fact Garfield couldn’t be dead because Sunday funnies would never be the same. A sudden rush of panic hit him as he suddenly wished he’d looked more closely at the paper last weekend.
“Isn’t Garfield a cat?” asked Buffy who didn’t read the comics and hadn’t realized the full implication of what his assassination meant yet.
...“Um, Xander, I think he meant President Garfield,” said Willow slowly.
“We had a fat cat as president?” said Buffy. “Where was I when all this happened?”
“Sleeping through history after saving the world?” suggested Willow.

“Yeah, well,” Daniel smiled self deprecatingly, “I don’t think my writing cleaned up till I started writing reports on a regular basis.”
“Oh what a wonderful idea – ”
“Giles, no,” Xander cut him off before he could finish the thought. “We have so many other better things to do with our time.”
“Xander, we do need to document. Think of all the lovely reference books we don’t have,” he held up a hand to forestall the next protest. “And before you say it, I would never presume to ask you or anyone here to write anything. Posterity would never understand it.”
“Hey!” Xander lifted a threatening spoon.
“What’s ‘posterity’?” asked Courtney.

The next few hours passed in bliss for Daniel and Carter who ended up in the dining room arguing with Giles about what was and wasn’t possible. Jack and Teal’c had stayed with them for the first bit about basic supernatural stuff like how to kill vampires but once the other three got going on the laws governing magical use, Jack couldn’t say yes faster when...

“Ours are better. Because of the magic. Your code is pretty droolworthy though. You don’t mind if I borrow some of it do you?”
“I designed the system,” said Sam. Willow immediately sat up, awe on every line of her face.
“You did? That’s like . . .”

The chat between Xander and Teal'c was brilliant, especially when Sam and Dan joined in. Hope those too are a couple, btw - since Jack/Sam is a rather ridiculous ship...

Wow.

Really, really wow. That was just so so awesome. You are so awesome. I don't even know where to start. Xander, my goodness Xander was awesome, he's my favourite and you've just... wow.

I know you wrote this years ago, but after that I figured you deserved a review (and lots of awards and cookies and maybe some money thrown in there somewhere) because it was actually amazing.

Jack was perfect, Xander was perfect, and they just fit together so well. I don't think even Joss could have written this better. The characters were so very realistic (as realistic as aliens and vampires can be), the humour was hilarious and it was subtle and just wow.

And the plot! The plot was excellent. Thor was awesome too.

Thank you for such wonderful story!

I want to see xander showing off his signed T shirt, and even better, i want to see thor showing off his signed rock. Omake. oh yeah, i probobly wouldnt have reached this story for a while yet, at least until its uploaded into the new crossover archives, but i was looking through Rude Mom's profile, and this one is listed as a favorite, he writes some pretty good Buffy/SG crossovers, so i figured he would know one when he saw it, i was right. ciao
