Wow. Good story, and I like how Xander proposed in the end.

The only flaw I can find is that Dawn didn't rush out to find and ask him to marry her, otherwise brilliant and well written. Loved it!

I can honestly give this story the highest phrase of praise that I ever give, one which is extremely hard to earn from me. It's a simple statement that in my opinion says it best, says it all, and can't be topped:

"This story is good."

Thank you for writing it. I thoroughly enjoyed reading your work.

i love this story...absolutely the best buffy/xander story i have ever read hands down...excellent work

I just re-read this again and I have to say that it is one of my favorites. I would really like to see an epilogue or a short one shot to show where everyone is in say 6 months after the end of this. It is just the romantic in me coming out. lol

once again, great job.

cool

Wow... I think that's possibly the most subtle proposal I have ever read about in any fiction, fanfic or not...

You took the story right where I didn't want it to go but you did it with such style & plausability that I can't really object. Congratulations! You are only the 3rd author to do a post season 6 & 7 BX story that I actually like!

I really like this story, i'm glad with the way it ended. Good job.

This has quickly become one of my favorite post-Chosen stories ever. I love how you have matured the characters but still kept them who they are inside. This would have made excellent TV to watch. Looking forward to the next chapter with anticipation.

Really well done!

Great part.

Keep up with stories like this. Very well writen and one of the most mature looks at the scoobies I have seen.

The only things I can think of that would have made this story more interesting would have been to have a visit by Dawn, A visit by Faith

& a visit by Giles, telling from their POV how they found the new scooby gang to be...

From your entertaining, in-character dialogue to the solid rebuilding of friendships and mature acceptance of the past I've simply fallen in love with this story. I'm a diehard BX fan who hopes for more of them romantically in your story, but will be just as pleased with their friendship as you have them right now. I think the time progression has aided your storytelling very well and your handeling of Willow has been superb in my eyes. Its how I would imagine Buffy and Xander dealing with her after all this time. The flirtyness is fun and adds spice to the mix, while the true Scooby friendship at the end of the day is once again the core of BtVS. I'll certainly be on the lookout for more of your work.
