I just wanted to say that I'm glad I finally caught up -- yesterday, I was wa-a-a-a-a-ay back there on Chapter 26.



I love the way you write -- and your characterizations are perfect.



I'm looking forward to more.

...but if I did call, she wouldn't hang up on me.

Mmmm. Preview, cravings sated for now. Lisa, thank you so much for the preview. Am axiously waiting the finished product. Don't worry. School should come first. I know. I know. I can't believe I just said (typed?) that either. My mother would be so proud. My fellow procrastinators so disappointed. Hmmm. I think I've gotten off track. gives self slight shake Yes, well, then, good job, Lisa, Brava.

Preview was amazing ... couldn't she just catapult herself out Buffy style? Okay, so I'm desperate (and we already knew that) but there has to be some way of getting through the trapdoor right? Well I trust you Lisa to guide the girls to ultimate goodness ... as you've promised.



Just wanted to say that I've just read BOUND in the Pens Archive ... it was another awesome story - how do you think them up? I recommend that everyone read it as I really enjoyed it!!!



Hoping to have the whole chapter soon.

Okay,

this is a drive-by posting.

I got the chapter back from my editor, and wanted to make sure you got it first thing.

Thanks for all the sweet and wonderful comments, sweet mittens. All righty...back to homework.

Lisa

PS.. THANKS THANKS THANKS

Hoo-boy.



Imbolc mage powers or no, I would not want to be Amy, meeting up with a thoroughly-pissed off Tara.



OTOH...did Amy make it all the way from Sunnydale to the sanctuary in record time? Or...did she?

Oooooh ... excellent.



I'm intrigued with Amy's project ... what's on her ratty little mind?

...but if I did call, she wouldn't hang up on me.

[tiyodragon]

Lisa, you are the QUEEN of edge of your seat driving!!!



Just when the withdrawals were getting bad...



I love the complete-human characters you build. We never find anything out about a person until it's dire...very nail bitey.



You let the story unfold, it's like a movie running in my head, complete with facial expressions.



Keep up the good work! Good luck on the homework.

Now what is that rat Amy up to again?!



Ya know what I like most about your fics, Lisa?? I never know what's coming. The only thing I can predict is that Willow and Tara will be together in the end.

Tara needs to put Amy in a hurt locker. She needs to let the whole damn sanctuary line up and take ONE swing at the rat. Why, oh WHY, can't Amy take a hint?

Well...Tara survived, Willow and Tara are back together...Everyone survived so it's a great day!

......

uh-oh.

Broke the scoobie rule #1.

Aw crap.

and ....please forgive me.



um...hey look! Tara's gonna kick the crap outta Amy!!

Hi Lisa. Thanks for the update...it was great! I'm concerned though, I don't like the idea of Brianna as an Imbolc Mage, can't she loose her mantle?? I mean, we have all seen what Tara went through...I don't want that to happened with Brianna too...

--Er du måske læge??--

[Sassette]

Ahhhh ... but Brianna will be born to it.



Think about it ... Tara's wisdom with Willow's Cool Monster Fighter instincts, a ton of power, and you've got one big ol' force of good ready to tackle the Evil.



I think Brianna will be a kick-ass Imbolc Mage.

[Star Pixie]

awesome preview lisa! that whole thing with the chalice and the lantern and the possibly timed door really reminded me of tomb raider!!



i've been here since the beginning and i'm so excited about the next update. you're doing a great job and i really admirea nd respect you. it means a lot to me that you're sharing this with all of us.

Well, bloody hell, that was just fantastic..I can't even begin to describe, my words are meaningless, Lisa, you rock!!!!

[oneinten]

Lisa that was a great update! Showing Brianna as the actual mage is ingenious!!! I love this story!



Favourite lines:

"Willow was as nervous as a clawless cat at a Rottweiler lunch counter"



"The expression on Brent’s face could not have been more horrified if Tara has suggested calling the future Imbolc mage shithead"



These are great and I think my co-workers think I'm crazy for laughing so much in my office.



Please keep em coming! I hope you and your horsies are well!

(gets over the shock) Wow! I didn't expect that coming. Lisa, with every chapter you never cease to amaze us. Awsome job!



(Oh and I was wondering if I could use a line from your stroy Reward and Reprisal as my signature.)

[VampiraJen]

please, please, please let amy be getting her ass kicked. this girl really pisses me off.

[Puff]

wow Lisa that update rocked although I kind of hope Brianna would get born without that power, at least they have some time before that happens though.



I loved the whole rebirth part and I think I held my breath with Tara



Oh and I think Amy is here to help, for once. Still doesn't mean she can't have her ass kicked though.

Wow. And the plot twists keep coming. I so, did not see that one. My God. During my final year at University I found tree pretty to be my most complex non-academic thought.

[Wolflord]

Great Update.......I agree that Amy needs her ass kicked, however I think it should be Willow who does it.... the old fashion way fists and feet, No magic. I like the take charge Tara, but I want to see some Willow combat also. She needs this, I think to be able to defend herself without magic. And I think Tara needs to let her do this so she does not have to rely on someone else to protect her. Anyway..those are my thoughts, just thought I would share. I am looking for next update and keep up the good work. Still think that Willow needs to find out about Buffy's feeling toward Tara. NO MORE SECRETS

Sometimes I think of them doing spells and I have a spell by myself.

[Pixie gishmock]

Wow!!! I also like the idea of Brianna being born to the power of the Imbolc mage, with both Willow and Tara to teach her. Can you just imagine the fireworks that will go on between W/T and the Guardians as they raise her?! And yes, Tara needs to kick Amy's ass!

Wow! Powerful update. And Tara is always so sexy when she's protective of Willow. Yum!!

[WebWarlock]

Now that was great!



Might I add that I said Brianna was going to be the IM a few posts back (does the snoopy dance). Now that will be one bad ass Imbolc Mage. Tara and Willow's intelligence, plus their magic. Tara's compassion plus Willow's anger. Yup. If were in the witches council I'd be packing my bags the second Tara makes the firs OB/gyn appointment. Now if you just have her start calling Bre "auntie Bre" you will make my dream come true! Literally.



I am going out on a limb here and say that Amy, while up to something sneaky, might actually be trying to help Willow and Tara?



I mean Amy's *owes* Tara. She is still alive when she could have been dead two or three times over. Tara cured her of her addicition. Oh yeah and then there is that whole bit about Tara nuking the people that Amy feared the most, Rack and the Keeper.



Plus I am not getting the love vibe between Amy and WitchesCouncil. I bet she still has that crystal and plans to give it to Willow.

She was doing something there in the bathroom with her darkness spell.



Loved the Willow and Tara bits. Your Anya is still first rate. Seemed like the Willow of old in here too.
