Well, you did warn me Lisa, but... shit!!! Excuse my language.



Damn her!!! I really hate Willow's mother with a passion. I really didn't have a problem with her father all that much, until the end that is. How can he go along with that?? I could never stay or be with anyone that hateful. I really wish Willow would tell them that Tara is the mother and that there is no father. Oooh, I know. Can't Brianna accidentally do a spell and have it go wrong and turn someone into a dragon or something. Maybe then, this could happen to Sheila:



Okay, that was evil of me, wasn't it? I really hate people like that. You know, this is disturbing and it will be very hard to read, but I'm going to. I trust you Lisa. I know our girls will be safe with you and that everything will eventually turn out okay in the end, no matter what happens in between.



Hey, if the Dragon thing can't happen, how bout this:



Grrrr.... I really want to see her get hers.



OKAY... on to more pleasant thoughts about the start of the update.



Have I mentioned how much I love Brent?? I just love the way you have written her. You know, I happen to think Willow is right. I think our Brent thinks that Tara hung the moon. She definitely has a mother's love for her. And the way she still calls her My Lady, is so endearing, even if Tara isn't the Imbolc Mage anymore. **SIGH** I loved how Brent was sticking up for Willow and Tara, when the Rosenbergs first arrived.



And of course, the little bed scene at the beginning of the chapter was just... I totally loved it. There's just something about a woman rubbing lotion on a pregnant woman's belly, that is just.... sexy as hell. So sweet.



Okay.... I've calmed down now, but still. Thank you for warning us ahead of time though, that Sheila would be such a bitch in this sequel. Damn her. She better not take Brianna away from Tara or... or... **HUFFS**



Lisa, your writing talents floor me everytime. It just shows how well you write, for me to be able to hate Sheila so much. Thank you for sharing your brilliant writings with us. **HUGS**



Looking forward to more,

Jen

Hey everyone!

I am still way behind on replies, but I just wanted to say...



Goodness. I almost feel bad for poor Sheila, although knowing what is coming, I don't. ;-)



I will say ... this was the MOST MINOR cliffhanger for the next few chapters. In other words, buckle up, it's going to be a bumpy ride!



Lisa

Too bad... i have to leave for the airport to go back home, but i haven't a printer here It would have been so cool to read it in the plane (and maybe for once, i'd have been able to do something in the plane other than looking through the window to see if the engin is blowing up I'm kinda afraid of flying... Anyway, if the plane doesn't crash down, i'll be able to read it within 13 hours... Isn't that incredible? The flight only last 2 hours, but we have to get to the airport, check in, wait... then once we arrive, we have to wait for the luggage and then go from the airport to home... 13 long endless hours while the flight is only 2... I wish i had a plane who could come and pick me up right here and then drop me back home...



But i think i'm totally off topic here, so i'm stopping here... But just wanna say... i hate to wait when a new chapter is up!!!

Lisa, Hey girl. **WAVES**



You don't feel bad for Sheila for what's to come, huh?? Can't wait to see what happens. Hearing you say that gives me a little relief. Thank you.



Uh oh. That was the most minor cliffhanger?? This is probably going to totally drive me crazy, huh?? Update soon?? Please?? Maybe we could bribe you into posting the next two chapters together, that way we won't have a big cliffyhanger?? Can we bribe you with chocolate? Or, backrubs?? Or, how bout tummy rubs??? Please???? I'm pathetic, I know.



Looking forward to more,

Jen

Okay, well, I have faith in you. I know you wont be like some other evil writer *cough Joss Whedon cough cough* And I know it will have a happy ending

**Walks into the thread carrying a basket of chocolates for our Lady Lisa. Also hands you a coupon book** Each coupon is worth a tummy rub or back rub. Hand them in and you shall recieve either, or. Will that work?? Please?? **Gives you sad puppy dog eyes**



Thanks, Fairydust. And I totally agree with you.

*whimpers* Why can't they just accept the fact that Tara and Willow BELONG together...and they are providing a safe, loving, caring, and warm home for their children?! How can people BE so....so....ARRRGGGHHH!!



It's infuriating!! That's probably spelled wrong...but I don't care! I'm mad! I think at least Ira is STARTING to come around. When Tara was showing him the text, I really think he was starting to...*gasp*...LIKE Tara?!



And I would really love to see them try to take Meghan away from Tara. That should last all of...2 seconds?



As usual Lisa....incredible work. You are an amazingly talanted writer and an exceptional talent. I love all of your work...and this story just proves that you get better and better...



I can't wait for more.

Lisa, thanks for the update, it made for a very bad night. And lawyers and papers sound bad.



One little thing though, being Jewish/Pagan myself, a person is never ever named after the other persons full name. Especially if their alive. If Sheila were to die, and Willow really wanted to name a child after her, it'd be something like Sydney or Samantha. It's kind of a bad luck sort of thing. Basiclly you take the first letter from a dead person.



otherwise, awesome update.

Tara nodded in agreement "She has magic fingers." Then, as though the words had just echoed back to her and sounded not at all right, she perked up and glanced around at the others. "On the keyboard."

Lisa of Nine: Great update, but I have to say I agree with everyone here, I really HATE, with a passion Willow's mother. How could somebody be like that, I mean what is her problem, I really hope that nothing too bad happens and that Willow and Tara tell Ira and Sheila the truth or if not then tell them something to get them to stop from butting into their lives and just leave them alone to raise their daughter. I can't wait to read more.



Lonewolf

Ohh...I am not liking Shelia either. That lawyer idea can't sound very good either. Wasn't she pay attention when the DoF ripped the Keeper a new a chapter or so back? And now *she* wants to mess with Tara?



That's stupid of her!



Though Tara, bless her, tries so hard to get on their good side despite the insensitive comments. I would *love* to see Shelia's face when Willow tells her how Brianna and Megan were really concieved.



Loved her "we were making love" line as well!



So, I am a little confused on the time line now...

They waited 6 months, Willow got pregnant and now she is her third trimester. So it has been more than a year since Tara was attacked by the Keeper's men.

And that puts this 9 years after Saeason Sux (although Season Sux never happened in the Lisaverse).



So that puts our girls in 2011, and 30 years old and Dawn is 24, or her third year of med school (M3). Wow she is working on some patients now.



I love this, I really do.

Brent is so good with Brianna, it was lovely to see her teaching Brianna all about herbs and plants. She is certainly a better grandmother figure than Sheila. That woman is just vicious.



Ira's interest in Tara's work shows where Willow gets her thirst of knowledge from. I do hope he has his own resolve face and that he'll stand up to that obnoxious woman and her plans.

Ahhh, Lisa ... haven't put in my two cents around here in awhile ... loved the ending of UC.



And I'm probably the only one - but this last update cracked me up. I mean, sure, it's all cliffhanger-y, but ... *snicker*



The Daughters of the Flame are an international organization with a lot of money and a lot of power ... seriously, what are the chances they have a world-famous lawyer or two on their payroll? I'm thinking pretty good, actually.



Between how severely pissed off the DoF are going to be, and how completely and totally cheesed WILLOW is going to be, I can't see how this can possibly go well for Sheila, and it's just making me cackle in an evil manner and gaining me odd looks from co-workers. Is it wrong to not be worried? Possibly - but come on - W/T have all the resources they need to just skip the country and live out their lives in some tropical paradise if they really wanted to ... there's seriously no way Sheila can get those kids.



And I'd love to see Sheila get smacked upside the head with a DNA test proving W/T's combined parentage of both girls. Bwahahahahhahaa!

Anyway... I also put my fist through my monitor while reading this last update.



Lisa, you have succeeded in making Sheila Rosenburg truly abhorrent.... I have never wanted to kill someone so much in my entire life.



And I mean really kill... slowly and with hot pokers... that go in new places...



Good job



I think



Cheers

Oh Lisa,



More cliffhangers. You ARE EVIL! But, bring them on. You just better write damn fast because our poor little hearts won't be able to take it

Aww dammit!! I have a STRONG dislike 4 Sheila and Ira tests me too! But God she is sooo, grrrr!! I mean she's gonna try to take away the babies from Tara that is sooo wrong!!



I hated it when Wills parents started calling Tara a stranger, I just wanted ahh scratch their eyeballs out! Damn them!!



Ira started to like Tara more when he actually talked w/ her and had something in common w/ her, which was good! Hopefully he will stop his wife b4 she does any of the horrible things she's gonna try and do!!



I am also upset that W/T's all naked mommies weekend got interupted!! And w/ the interuption being Will's parents, not good!! But i'm not gonna get started on them again!!



This was an awesome update!! I sooo can't wait 4 more!! Please let it be soon!

Hey Lisa,



Just wanted to let you know that I loved the update. I must say I like Brent and Brianna interaction. It is like a grandmother with her grandchild. I really don't like Shiela either, did not like her when she was on the Burning Willow at the stake episode. I don't remember them ever showing her father so can't have an opinion on him really. But at this moment they are not in my favorite people list right now. And I don't know about others, but I got a bad feeling for Willow. I mean you just write that the plans of the parent's down without foreshadowing some major problems with Willow. So I have made sure all my protective Angst gear is ready and prepared. Keep up the great work and looking forward to the next update. Angsty or not.

Hey I'll check out mistakes, whatever you need. Although I must say if I noticed any then they weren't big enough for me to remember. I was really wrapted up in the stories. As I tend to do when reading something good. Knowing me there prolly will be a third time. Insomnia allows such things. What better way to occupy my mind than your stories! Anyway, loved this part. I laughed alot, then gaped a little. Makes me very curious. But you know I can wait..maybe not as long as it takes, but I can wait. Great job and loverliness all around I say.

Anne

I love this fic! Your Tara is so smart. By showing Ira the documents she translates, she's getting a chance to relate to him as a grown-up and not just as his daughter's girlfriend. It doesn't look like it's going to be enough for him to oppose Sheila's nefarious scheme but hopefully Willow will stand up for herself and Tara.



Can't wait for the next update

Oh man, where have I been!

Oh man, Sheila needs a swift, ohhh, why I outta...grrr...she's such a ... MEANIE! hmphff

Tara was similarly riveted, her body on slow burn as Willow's lips parted and her mouth opened, the food slipping inside and being consumed. Never in her life had Tara ever wanted to be a chicken casserole so badly...Later that night..."It's good to be a chicken casserole," Tara murmured, before passing out. ~ Answering Darkness by Sassette

I love Brianna even more after each chapter i read. She's just so smart... But how can she not be with two parents like willow and tara?

I wonder if after more than a year since the end of last chapter, she finally manages to say Buffy instead of Fluffy



And i'm so mad at Willow's parents. Well, Ira seems to finally realise what tara means to both willow and brianna, but sheila is just so getting on my nerves... How can she even consider what she's considering?? I just wish this was just some fictional scenario, but i know it does happen and it makes me so upset.



Anyway, that was a great update, can't wait for more...

Oh ....I'm with Darkwiccan on the poker thing....but i'd make new places with the red hot poker to then stick the red hot poker in....



but then having been through the whole "you're not the childs real mother " stupidity with my daughters grandmother I know how Tara is going to feel about this. It doesn't matter how it all ends up...(it turned out ok in my case I have full custody..or as the tabloid press put it.."Granny loses child to lesbian".... ) It damn well hurts like hell at the time.
