Changes Update!

[tabaqui]

Hallo!
A little late, so sorry.

Today is Cat's birthday, so we had a nice dinner and some pressies. :)
Yay! My dearest Cat is forty today!

And here's the chapter, folks. Enjoy!

Changes Chapter 27: Upsets

Yes, i'm sorry, a bit of a cliffhanger again, but... Had to!


Edited to add: I have 'extra' icons now, and i've got some that i don't remember who made them. So if you see 'your' icon anywhere with a post or a comment of mine, tell me 'hey, i made that!' so i can make sure i credited you. I hate to have somebody's good work go unrecognized!

Thanks.

Chapter 27

[(Anonymous)]

Wow!! It appears poor Spike can't avoid the fate ME laid out for him. Interesting that Tara's family is Rom--I wish ME would've explored her background more that they did (one day I plan to catalog all the plot points where they failed to follow through--grr argh). Can't wait for next week's chapter.

Wow!

Jack, and a pooka! ::shivers::
And the amulet. And Xander 'seeing' Angel, demon and soul, like that. Wow.

And again with the dangling of me over a cliff by my fingernails! Pah!

An ADHD faerie. Bwahahahaha!!!!!

Happy Birthday, Cat!!

I read the last sentence of the chapter while copy/pasting it into word. Um... must we follow canon? Can we not have happily ever after? Am I going to have to pull my normal denial technique of keeping up with the chapters but not reading them until I'm sure we're back in the happy land?

Am I going to have to beat you?

Lots of questions... not many answers.

*smootch*

OOH happy birthday to Cat!!

Great chapter! But bad cause I know the end is coming and I'm gonna cry...lots. I'm already sniffling. Really.

[julia-here.livejournal.com]

Oh.

Yikes.

But I trust you... really...


Love what Xander sees in Angel, and the deep similarity between Spike and Scavenger.

But... I CAN trust you, I know, you've brought us so far with better-than-canon...but...

Damn.

Julia, and happy Birthday to Cat from me, too

Oh! Happy Birthday, Cat! :D

And also, will read this *soon*

*squeaks* Damnit!

Okay, first, so happy about the Sight. Thank you.
Second, fantastic description as always. Jack and pooka are brilliantly drawn. And the build up to their arrival had me short of breath. And Tara here was wonderful. My bohemian heart swells.
Knowing canon, I was hoping we'd get around the amulet somehow. And knowing canon, I hope the result (if relatable) is equally transient but, oh man... the boys. And Xander especially, my heart aches for Xander. His understanding and denial was wrenching. And this is fear, my dear. Fear for them all.
Love this, love you.
*smooch*

*breathes* Okay, but Spike still gets to come back, right? He's not gonna die forever, right? *adamantly not crying*

[chocgood84.livejournal.com]

First...Fairy with ADHD - hifuckinglarious.

Second...*finds the nearest desk and hides under it, rocking back and forth* Noooooooooooo! *cries*

[annabuffy.livejournal.com]

*pets you*
Sorry for the cliffhanger but...it'll be okay!!

[tabaqui]

Hee!
*squeak*

I lurve my pooka, i'm glad you like him!!
And Tara - she's just sooooo cool!

Thank you thank you for being breathless...i'm so glad it translated well, 'cause i knew how i wanted him to feel, but wasn't sure if i could describe it right.
*smooches back*
Thank you, bay-bee!

[tabaqui]

I'm telling him about all the birthday wishes and he's chuffed.
:)

[tabaqui]

Yes yes, trust me.
Angel needed something from me, i dislike him so. Although heaven is kinda mean...

I love my bois, above all else.
:)

[tabaqui]

Oooh, don't cry!!
*pets you*
And thank you!
:)

[tabaqui]

Heee!
'Changes' is all about canon but ALSO all about finding ways to make the story GOOD and better and more logical and all that while sticking as close as possible.
I think the next chapte will make you happy, or at least happier, so don't stop reading now!!
:)

[tabaqui]

Heee!
Sorry!!
*pulls you up*
It'll be okay!!
Really.
*bounce*

Thanks!

*sniffle*
but...but...amulet and...*sniffle*

[chocgood84.livejournal.com]

Hee! Happiest. Birthday. Ever ;D

[pyrite.livejournal.com]

gah! not that i didn't know that was coming, at least the spike/amulet part, not the jack part, but still! waaahhhhh!!!!!! there's a loophole right? there's got to be a loop hole. or an ancillary clause or or something! right? please?

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

AAAAAAAAH!!! I knew it and it still made me scream! Oh, it was wonderful, the pooka and Jack again and your description of Angel--- Buffy being so brave and Tara-- it was just wonderful and terrible too. You made me cry!

Oh, and please wish ny friend Cat a happy birthday-- I wish I could be there with warm wax and a feather duster...in a strictly platonic way of course, no disrespect!

[eyezrthewindows.livejournal.com]

No! I don't want Spike to die! *sobs* Why do you have to follow this part of cannon? Why not kill of Buffy instead?
