Review of chapter "Chapter One" from (2007%20Donor)FireDragon
Review:
That was very enjoyable. how did Jack know Buffy and Dawn?
Comments from author:
Thanks. In one episode Jack visited General Hammond at home and it was obvious that Hammond's granddaughters knew him so as Buffy and Dawn were his older granddaughters in this story I just extended the knowledge to them.

Review of chapter "Chapter One" from Orion
Review:
Nice. It's not the first "Stargate goes to the Watchers' Council" i've read, but it is one of the better ones, and possibly the only one that diverges from that particular meeting.

I wouldn't mind reading more in this universe.
Comments from author:
Thanks. To me the Discloser episode seems the most logical crossover possibility.

Review of chapter "Chapter One" from spk
Review:
OMG! I FREAKING LOVE IT!! I was just looking for a new Buffy/SG-1 crossover, and then to find this with West Wing thrown in. Amazing! I love the way you're writing the characters and I love the familial connection between Buffy and Hammond. Can't wait to see what becomes of this. :)
Comments from author:
Thanks. We will see what comes along in the future????

Review of chapter "Chapter One" from azulkan
Review:
Great story. Any plans on perhaps continuing it. Would be great to see how Jack took all the changes.
Comments from author:
Thanks. May continue, may not? Jack would moan but as Hammond said the Council were not going to interfere with the day-to-day running of the SGC. I imagine similar way the IOA operate?

Review of chapter "Chapter One" from enderverse
Review:
The scoobies would all suck at diplomacy. I don't think a single one of them would be able to do politics. they also never make plans beyond a single battle, no long term planning at all. at least i cant think of a single instance of it in the show. I don't think they could deal with anyone beyond killing them that's all the scoobies really do. The scoobies are great at what they do but what they do is disorganized guerrilla fighting.
Comments from author:
Yes in the series but this is set later and as they are now on the Council board they would start to learn the finer points of diplomacy - I am sure if you talked to most diplomats etc from around the world, they were not always that good at diplomacy? You learn to swim or you drown.

Anyway thanks for the review.

Review of chapter "Chapter One" from Katsuhito
Review:
This is a neat start. I've not read too many stargate stories where the Council takes over (I can only name one off the top of my head), and they're always interesting. This chapter seemed a little rushed; like you were in a hurry to set the background, so you can get to the meat of the story. I can understand not wanting to weigh a chapter down with unnecessary detail - especially a scene-setting chapter, but details also build a story. It's fine line to walk, but you generally manage very well.

Anyway, I look forward to either a sequel, or more chapters. :)

Comments from author:
Thanks. I edited the sequence taken from Discloser partly for length and because I assumed that anyone who would read this would have seen the episode. The meeting between the Council members did not really need to be included because other than filler only involved the details given at the meeting the following day.

This would be a scene setting chapter if it is continued but feel I also made it so that it flowed if I ended.

Review of chapter "Chapter One" from theunixer
Review:
I really do like this one!

Yes, Paul Davis should be promoted, since a Major isn't enough rack for what his position has become. Also, he has earned it because of the quality of his work. However, his promotion would be to Lt. Colonel, not a full Colonel. Jack O'Niell would still outrank him. So no telling him to "Go to Hell". Sorry.

As for Dawn's creation. You have it right. I always thought that it should have been that the Monk's spell propagated back in time, altering the timeline to include Dawn back to her ("natural") conception and birth. They made it so that she really was always there.

It's too bad you didn't have Faith accompanying them. After the tour, she and Buffy could have checked out the Gym and decide to spar with each other (resulting in cracked concrete walls from their flying bodies [with the security camera recordings making the rounds] as well as appropriate shock and awe from the observers). Being Slayers, the inactivity of the trip to there would have made them antsy and want some action. Of course, Faith could visit very soon, have the above mentioned spar, and decide to stay. Reflection after reading about all the attacks that came through the 'Gate might prompt the Scoobies to decide that a permanent Slayer team as guards for the Stargate Room would be needed. I really want a scene of the SG team members (especially the Marines) and others on base going pale every time Faith suggests a sparring session with her.

What about an actual attack coming thru the 'Gate (incapacitating the on guard SFs in the Gateroom) "just happening" during the tour? Willow could 'port in some of their weapons with a couple of on-deck Slayers (with one around 12 or 13 - just for the suprise value, Jack would of course later rant about "Kids fighting a WAR!") and Xander. The Scoobies know all about weird so-called coincidences and would have prepared for things to go wrong just in case. With Buffy and Dawn (who after all is now very good with a sword), they then help the SFs "deal" with it, in a very blood and body parts flying, throat cutting, and neck snapping kind of way. Afterward the SGC people are in shock and somewhat appalled at just what the now very blood spattered Scoobies are capable of, along with their attitude of smiles [REALLY ferel grins on the parts of the Slayers], high fives, and comments like "Just like old times." and "Remember when [insert appropriately gruesome and horrifying statement here] ...? This was just like that".

I do like the idea of sicking Andrew on any recalcitrant types.


So yes, PLEASE continue this as a series.
Comments from author:
Thanks. I actually meant promotion to full Colonel.

I actual got the idea for Dawn from Just One Night by vogonguard so I cannot take credit for the idea but it does make more sense than just creating false memories.

I did not have Faith because I did not think she would have anything to add to the meeting with the Security members and I knew I had planned to end it just after the got to the SGC so no real point in having her there.

Slayers as security in the gate room? May seem a nice idea but I think they would quickly get bored - Do not think that would be a good idea? But if I continue I might have the odd Slayer and or witch joint a team for a while?

Review of chapter "Chapter One" from Almadynis
Review:
This is excellent! Wonderful plotline with a new twist! Continue on it please! A story this well written shouldn't be deligated to a sign-and-seal.
Comments from author:
Thanks. As I said I got the idea while watching Discloser - I have a couple more involving B5 and Torchwood from watching the DVDs that I am writing. As for continuing, still not sure?
