A nice one shot, would be nice if you extended it into a full length fic, however it works rather well as it is never the less, nice to see a good Willow centred fic.

I enjoyed the story. I liked the interaction with Illyria and Willow a lot, and the shock from the others seemed pretty much what one might expect.
Although I'm not lesbian, I would have enjoyed it a lot more if it hadn't had the bitter comments from her co-worker about her being a lesbian... Would he have made similar comments if she had been in a relationship with a guy?
Then there was the "Just the good looking ones like Willow, except of the non-gay variety." That just seemed gratuitous.
It was also out of character. Though he would definitely say something that inappropriate, I really can't imagine Jack saying anything that *bigoted*.
Thought: If you can't deal with Willow being lesbian, maybe you shouldn't write about her, or you should write stories where she's not lesbian. After all people write slash stories about straight characters all the time... why not the other way around? The snarky remarks about lesbians just lower the value of your story, even though the story itself is otherwise quite entertaining.

Interesting comments thank you. My favourite couple in Buffy were Willow and Tara. Please don't make the mistake of attributing the comments made by a character in a story with the views of the author. My intention was for a couple of men to express disappointment that somebody as beautiful as Willow was not available to them. That and an attempt at humor. I appreciate that you don't think I pulled it off very well.

Oh boy. I loved the confrontation between Illyria and Willow and how after they made up they left arm-in-arm to talk about Tara. I also love Jack's request to only recruit the pretty witches. About that, if Willow's magic is causing problems with the Stargate, would adding more witches to the mix just make matters worse? Please write more soon. I can't wait to see how this story develops.

Thanks for your kind words. I don't have any more of this one I'm afraid but I will be posting on this site the much longer Buffy/Angel/Charmed/Stargate story that I am working on at the moment.

I thought this was really interesting, but it ending felt like there was supposed to be another chapter or something to conclude the Fred/Illyria/Willow thing. It was very good though. Will there be a sequel?
Comments from author:
Thanks for your comments. At the moment there is no sequel. I don't rule one out eventually but at the moment I'm doing other things.

I like the story it's a nice amount of stargate and Buffy universe mixed together without a number of the pit falls I've seen to many times in Buffy/stargate crossovers. In other words keeping going on the story please.
Comments from author:
Thanks for that. This is a stand alone I'm afraid. I may return to it one day but at the moment I'm involved in other things.

Not bad, but this would be a better story if you eliminated the "Introduction." Much of it is not really relevant to the story, most of the relevant parts are implicit in the story itself, and don't need to be stated. What's left should be added explicitly to the story.

Thanks. Good point.

Lol! OK, this story is a bit wacky, but I liked it a lot. Nice job with the characters and dialog. I really hope you've written more to this story as I have a whole lot of questions and no answers. Well done and I will now go and look for more of your stories.

Thanks for your kind words. At the moment I am afraid this is all there is to this story. I hope you like the other story that I have posted.
