You do interpersonal friction well. The arguement scenes felt like some I been involved in over the years and the settlement of them worked as well.

> Couldn’t she have picked Boston? It’s a nice city—of course, it’s colder then hell in the winter, but hey, it’s only three months out of the year. It also doesn’t have a stupid nickname that pilots use to annoy their passengers with.

Just FYI, Boston is nicknamed "Beantown". Much worse than "the Big Apple", IMO. ;-)

Being all for self-reflection & heart-felt apologies, I have to say...

I like it.

Even if no one else apologizes, I like what you did with Faith's.

Nicely done, I like seeing Buffy and Willow together, and this is a well written story that shows both of them as adults, trying to deal with their relationship and their friends as adults. Xander has shown once again that he sees his friends as he 'wants' to see them, not how they actually are. Faith's willingness to acknowledge her failure to apologize to Buffy for her actions and her sincere apology is wonderful. Keep up the good work.

Oh wow... oh wow!!! That was a freaking good chapter! Sorry I've miss your other updates... I can't wait for more!!!

I am very impressed with your enjoyable story. You are doing an excellent job with showing us actual grownup versions of Willow and Buffy. I have no problem with slash stories if they are well written and the author makes a logical case for the relationship. You've done an excellent job with both requirements, IMHO. I like your Buffy/Willow paring, as angsty as it is. Lol! And I find I like your other parings as well. Faith/Xander seems almost predestined to me and I was surprised I actually thought Dawn/Kennedy made pretty good sense. After I thought about it a bit. I look forward to more of your story as I think I smell a plot coming towards us. Lol! I like Buffy's cop partner also. Now I want more story! Please?

like it, like it, like it! definitely want to see more!

hhhhmmmm....i likes very much....missed this one on IKOLY (and really miss that site :() but glad to have found it here.....I really like the new mature Willow....and I really hope Buffy gets over her self loathing....and i really, really wish you'd gone into more detail with the love scene... alas i guess i can't have everything, huh? i look forward to more!!
