As a whole I'd say this story deserves a 10. Harmony is of course out of character but as a whole that is necessary as she is totally unlikable if you try to stick to her canon!personality.
I especially liked the last chapters which not only showed that Xander and Harm are not Bruce and Kara and thus can't instantly fix everything, but also showed that just because Bats and Supergirl cleaned up one problem, there will be several other massive problems that they couldn't have fixed.
A nicely balanced story, I wouldn't mind seeing a continuation which addresses the consequences further. Plus can't wait for Dawnie to finally show up.

this needs more. Did Kakistos ever met Faith? Did Buffy & Harmony become rivals after Harmony began slaying faster then Buffy? Are the Halloween affects genetic I.E. are their kids geniuses with superpowers? Also, what happens if they leave the Magic rich hellmouth? So much that begs to be answered.

Ooooo, so many plot bunnies! They all get their slice of carrot cake, and the sad news that I'm too busy with other stuff to follow up on these. Still, I'll keep them in mind. Thanks for the review!

Not a big fan of the whole 'Bang i killed Kendra' thing, but it was a good story, thanks for letting us read.

Like the previous roommate of Sherlock Holmes who left in a huff over such events as an air-pistol being used to initial 'VR' on the walls of their quarters to make way for John Watson, Kendra has the unfortunate luck of being the predecessor of a much more interesting character. As long as Kendra is alive, Faith can't make her appearance in the Buffyverse, so that Jamaican Slayer isn't likely to be around all that long.
I really enjoyed this fic. You don't see too many Harmony/Xander fics, not to mention the unexpected suggestion of a Kara/Bruce (Supergirl/Batman) match up. It would be neat to see a fic from the other side... What Bruce and Kara do when they get back. Just a plot bunny kernel if you're interested.
Look forward to reading more.

Dang! You snuck a couple of updates by me while I wasn't looking. I loved reading your logical explanations for so many of the oddities about the show. I also like how both Xander and Harmony are taking to their new powers. Too bad Harm can't fly. To me that would be the coolest superpower.
But, dang, you killed poor Kendra. Again! That poor Slayer just can't get a break. But now Faith is activated. So yay! But all the Big Bads are a comin' to Sunnyhell for fun and games. I so look forward to more of your terrific story and seeing how the Scoobies handle the scumbuckets.
And thank you for reminding me of Man of Steel, Woman of Kleenex. I just reread it and it is just as funny as I remembered.

What's up with this quarantine stuff? One of the mods have a stiffy for Spike? Seems like every fic that dusts him get quarantined lately.

Hey, be nice to the overworked and unpaid moderators. It was my fault, as I set too much of the latest chapter as script, rather than a story, without meaning to, as there's a lot of dialogue in it. I've fixed it now and I'm waiting for the quarantine to be lifted after sending the following:
"Sorry about that, Chief."
(Turning away for privacy to talk on his shoe phone meant missing how the Lair of Doom now destroyed itself in smoke and fire, and how the captured Evil Overlord stared in disbelief at being ignored, and then casually backed up, to start silently tiptoeing away in a successful break for freedom, as a cheerful voice spoke)
"Everything's fixed now. I hope it's okay."
(Turns around)
"Oops."
"Oops!? I don't like the sound of that, Max. In fact, I specifically forbid you to say that word ever again."
"Would you accept an 'oopsie-woopsie', Chief?"

Great story, but what the crap is going on with the mod? I don't see anything wrong, no site violations unless it is some obscure one.
