Dru was such a great adition to this chapter. Connor is by far my favorite character. I'm also happy to have more of Willow in this chapter. I love the fact that Dru used her thrall to get Connor to be with her. It was such a heartbreaking scene to bring back Cordelia in such a way. Poor Connor. I LOVE the fact that Spike knows! Great Chapter!
Author's Response: Thanks as always for the review. Dru is always great for causing havoc. I’m glad Connor’s your favorite character. It’s a well know secret that he’s mine. Just as Dru is always good for havoc, Will is always good for . . . well . . . willowness. I’m so glad you enjoyed the chapter. |

Another great chapter chock full o' action and plot development! There were too many funny lines to count. I loved the way you wove in Drusilla and her powers. Don't think I missed that line "Brazil went quiet, like the demons upped and moved." I'm going to be looking for a reason for that before this series is through. Also, the Risen One's wire transfer with Faith's name on it. What's going on there. Man, I can't wait! I loved Dawn settling in as watcher. Dru was just completely awesome. Always a step ahead, using that hypnotism to get in Connor's head. It was an interesting character development that Connor still sees Cordy as his dream girl. Both Connor and Dru and Connor and Cordy seem icky to me, yet I have to admit I found the sex scene very erotic. Man can you write! Plus, Drusilla wanting a kid was brilliant. She's insane, power hungry, apocalypse loving, and incestuous (if she considers Angel and Spike her father and son). I wonder if something will come of that. I'm not a huge fan of repeating themes and stories. A vampire pregnancy has been done as has Connor having a child. I'm hoping you can find some amazingly original result of this coupling. Finally, THAT ENDING! Awesome! I love how you so subtly indicate that Spike figured out who Connor was. Otherwise, why would he call Angel and why would Angel tell him Connor was Angel's son? You don't give us some cheesy Eureka moment with Spike saying "You're Angel's son!" You don't have Spike figure it out right away, but it results from 12 chapters of suspicion and investigation with clues coming from more sources than I can figure. Brilliant! I love this story!
Author's Response: Thanks again!!! Your reviews are so kind. I've always loved Dru, so I liked the idea of working her in. I didn't want it to be a random insert, so I gave her a very clear purpose; find baby brother Connor and get knocked up like grand-mum/daughter Darla. Man, that *is* a screwed up family tree. Hope you keep reading. |

Dru wanting to have a child just like Darla? Boy she really isn't that insane as people say she is. Power is what she wants. It's funny that Connor still loves Cordy. And Angel showing up with that kind of statement at the end of the chapter? I love it.
Author's Response: Yeah, I think Angel's appearance is cool, too. Dru is whacked in the head, but now we know a) why she’s there and b) why she’s after Connor. Well, that and the family ties. |

First of all I have to say, WHAT WERE YOU THINKING LEAVING A CLIFFHANGER LIKE THAT? I've decided you're evil, that can be the only logical conclusion. I loved the Dru/Connor interaction. I also liked how you used both the original mythology from BTVS and ATS during the Dru/Connor scene at the end. It's spun in a new way of course, but has the substance of history tethering it to the buffyverse.
Author's Response: I’m glad you like my melding old Buffy mythology in. Dru is definitely one of the most under-used characters in the Buffyverse. But she’s powerful and ambitions. It would make sense that she would want to use what power she could of Connor’s to potentially destroy or dominate the world. I’m also glad you loved/hated the cliffhanger. But then again, it’s not completely a cliffhanger. It’s kind of like your ending to chapter 12 of Secrets Exposed. It’s all out there. Now we just want to see the fallout. |
