"Bacchus...he's a Greek God too, isn't he?" she asked the warrior princess.

"God of Wine." Xena replied. "A real **."

Hate to bust your bubble sweetie, but Bacchus is the ROMAN god of wine. DIONYSUS is the GREEK god of the VINE - and he's no **. He was a beloved god of the earth, who was torn to pieces every winter and brought back to life every spring. He and Demeter were worshiped all across Greece, because they were the god and goddess of earth and fertility, Demeter of the Corn and Dionysus of the Vine.

Bacchus, God of Wine, is a total sleazebag party animal of Rome, but Dionysus's followers were said to achieve godliness through inspiration - sometimes with wine, sometimes with art or poetry or meditation. That's why he was favored, because those who followed him were said to sometimes reach his level. And Bacchus is just plain...well, he's every mean, angry, violent drunk you've ever met.

If the sequel is half as good as Ages Apart than it will be awesome. I have had so much fun reading this story and can't wait to read the sequel.

'She asked for it. She practically dared me to do it.' Willow told herself. 'It was nice though...while it lasted.'

You can never have to much B/W interactions. I must say I really enjoyed how you showed us (the reader) what was really going on beneth the surface.

I just love how true to the characters you are in your stories. It is truely like watching the show, only better cause the true soulmates get together every time :) Xena is so tough to write because she says so little with words and yet is such a powerful force. You have somehow managed to capture that in your story. I loved the warrier/girl bonding, you pulled it off like no one else and stayed so true to the characters.

This was a really fun chapter. As a fan of both btvs and xena it was great to see the two woriers face off in a friendly way. Sort of like the Superman vs Mighty Mouse.

I can't decide who would be better xena or buffy so it was nice to see that both girls held their own :)

I have to agree with what Ivy said. It's a good story and it is always hard to do cross overs and spend enough time on each character. Can't wait for the sequel. And keep up the good work and I want to know what Xena will do with gabs kissing her and what about B/W...

I like! :)

I have request though, you can make the next story or three a bit longer? Remember, at THEIR end of the spectrum they have TONS of Time, as they now in the DISTANT past. Plz remember that, and show how heroic Buffy can really be in direct comparision with her elder counterparts!

wow... Nice story. Hurry up with the sequel!

As usual, it's awsome. I absolutely loved all the yummy Buffy/Willow goodness. So please, you just have to update again really soon cause I can't get enough of this story.

It is so hard to do a cross over and have equal time for all the characters, so far you are balancing everything perfectly. I love the mirrors you have developed between B/W relationship and X/G. I've found the pacing a little slow, but that could be because I love action/adventure--I like to see Buffy beat up vamps--Xena slice and dice the bad guys.

I am completely enjoying this story so far!

I love this. I like Xena and Gabrielle on the show together, but since I don't really read Xena fanfic, they don't really do anything for me in the story. But Buffy and Willow? Bring it on. I don't think I've ever loved a pairing as much as I love them together. There isn't enough of them on this board so you've got to update ASAP. Thanks for sharing this awsome story.

I'm loving this story! I really like all the Buffy/Willow interaction going on here so please keep it up. I'm hoping for an update really soon.

Just so you know, if you don't get that many reviews, it might be because you have your review statis saying that you don't take anynomus(sp) reviews. If you chance that, then you're sure to get more.

i like it. can't wait to find out what happens next.
