I was just rereading your series when I got a few ideas and the itch to manipulate them, and they came out in a night and a day. Heck, it took more time to post them to deviantarte than it did to make them I think, lol. I havent really made anything or written anything in six months so it was a delight. I'm glad you like them.
Hm... I'm not sure exactly what I want to read because I didn't think you were using "lookalikes" and I'm not sure if you're crossing realities to prove to others that it actually happened. I would think it would be awesome if in teh other world, everybody ended up dying after Buffy's body was killed when the poison overcame her system and now Dawn or someone is going to go where her only sister is, but that would make it too angsty and make them think it was Buffy's fault or something, yadda yadda. It would be cool if you put Dawn into a fic, maybe a Were or maybe not, but nah. You're trying to stay in this dimension, right?
Hm... How about a fic or drabble fic where Buffy uses what she knows of the other world to succeed in this one. Like, we all read about the Caritas spell. She could get a pretty good score when she had to retake her SATs. Hm... Oooo, maybe have Buffy admitting to herself that she isn't crazy even if she says she is because she knows things that she couldn't have possibly known if she hadn't been 'awake.' For instance, she lived through 9/11 like everyone else and wouldn't have been that shocked that it had happened even if her doctors had not allowed news to 'fuel her dellusions.' Buffy could always be taking Psychology classes and know a lot secondhand info about magic that her 'interest' before the nuthouse wouldn't have covered.
She knows many types of self-defense as the Slayer and even if she hadn't the strength for most of it, she has the mental reflexes and thinks about it, yeah?
Heck, I'd like a good bit where sometimes her strength or healing of the Slayer is still there even if the 'predator' is buried low. I can see her mother or someone not being able to open a peanut butter can like Xander in Season 1, and she just takes it, twists it, and hands it back.
Hm, now I have so many ideas for it! Ooo, maybe the meeting between Buffy and Anita. I think they would get along in mnay ways, the least of which is that they're both short females who can kick normal ass. Okay, I'll quit hypothesizing before I get too ahead of things I'm hoping for but prolly wont see most of it. Later!
And if you have any more Buffy-centered fics you wouldn't mind seeing a manip for, just tell me.

Words cannot express how awesome you are! These pics are so incredibly awesome. I love them all (sorry for the dely in replying, had no net connection for a few days).
Thank you SO much for this. They're brilliant and equally inspiring... As a thankyou, tell me what you would like to read in the guardian verse and I will write you a ficlet. Anything you would like (pm me with your request). I'm going to work on the chosen one in the interim.
Once again, thank you. They're brilliant.

Аwwww ... it's just a lovely story. Constantly re-read "The Mom Rules". Children are so sweet and Luke is so embarrassed))) And girls are great) I realy like the relationship between Buffy and Dereck. I would like to see Buffy and Derek in St. Louis))) Can I translate your series "The Guardian Series" in Russian? Pretty please?

I'm really liking these stories. It's kind of funny watching the kids try to protect Buffy from things she already knows or has figured out.
She's kind of reminding me of Gibbs from NCIS in that respect.

Thank you so much. I think the kids are quite adorable at that age. They're trying to be grown up for Buffy (most Luke and Jeremiah) but they always forget that she actually is a grown up.

And we desperately need to see more of these stories. many more. Many, many more of them. ;-)
And has Buffy realized yet that, eventually, her multicultural, multi-species dynasty is going to be ruling the preternatural world?
With Derek and Luke and her parents and the children supporting her, anyone who goes against her is going down for the count.
Hard.
Love this and the whole series.

Thank you!
Buffy realises on a small level that she (through her children) has some power, but she's more focused on helping them (her personal mission) than contemplating the impact what she doing has on the bigger picture.
And you're completely right about Derek, her kids, Hank and Joyce going against any threat to Buffy. There's a lot that has happened that Buffy doesn't know about (and a lot that she does). :D

Another amazing story. Can we pretty please see the bit when Buffy tells Luke about he illness. Oh and I love the Luke character and his devotion and love for Buffy.
Comments from author:
Thank you.
Yes, I plan on writing a fic which will show Buffy telling Luke. Actually, I've been doing some plot work on a multi-part fic for this 'verse based around the first two months of Buffy and Luke's relationship (which would incorporate what you've mentioned, Derek, Jeremiah and the werechetah's angle). If all goes according to plan, the first chapter may be posted today or some time this weekend. No promises though.
