Review of chapter "Part Five The Power of a Wish" from Genuka
Review:
Aside from one sequence it was perfect! Here's the corrections:
You deserve a loving mother who can give you a real family. I have not really done that for you. I wish that there were a hundreds slayers and witches so you could be safe from the Goa'uld and free of the NID. So they could help keep the world safe.”
“Janet, oh dear lord no.” Rupert said(whispered maybe?) as he heard a voice call “Wish Granted.”

Review of chapter "Part Five The Power of a Wish" from Malu
Review:
Very nice story so far! A small nitpick: D'Hoffryn rules over a hell dimension known as Arashmahaar.
Comments from author:
Never said it was D'Hoffryn but the point is wel made. I tried to sound it out. Spelling is so not my strong point.

Review:
Just so I understand this correctly, most of this chapter was a flashback correct? I love that because of this wish Tara lives but what else was changed? I am looking forward to more.
Comments from author:
Yes it was. I suppose I should label it that way. I fix it later tonight. Thanks for pointing it out and the review.

Wonderful. The whole bond idea is rather cool. I am eagerly awaiting the next installment to this wonderful story.
Comments from author:
Thanks it ( The bond)was supposed to be a way to explain their reconnection and Buffy's sudden need to help and protect Giles.

Review of chapter "Part Four Saved Bond" from Bobboky
Review:
strange to have Buffy and Giles start in a relationship in a fic... for some reason it is not nearly so weird when they are already together or get together in the background...
nice work though, nice job on the writing.
Comments from author:
Thank you, I know it seems a little strange but the idea can work if you let it. I hope this fic continues to amuse you.
Review of chapter "Part Four Saved Bond" from Twoboots
Review:
I am starting to suspect you are a Buffy/Giles shipper. :) Good story so far.
Comments from author:
I love Buffy with a strong male character. I do agree with Spike assessment however. Buffy does like a little dark in her men. It is the reason Riley never had a chance or Xander in the begining. They were to good and to light. Buffy needed someone who had faced their own demons as it were. Spike or Giles in the series are her best matches. I am Buffy/Giles in many ways. I think it is mostly because he was just so damned cute in that tweed and then Ripper off set it so nicely. The kind of man you could take home to mum but, would never, ever bore you. Rupert is the kind of man who would treat Buffy like a Lady when she wants it but like a slayer when she needed it. That had to be a perfect combination to my mind. Thanks for the review.

Review of chapter "Part Four Saved Bond" from mmooch
Review:
Stupid PTBs and their idiotic manipulations! Who knows how much pain and suffering would have been saved if Buffy and Giles had been allowed to bond without Angel's interference.
Comments from author:
I always thought it was stupid of the PTB to try to hook up Angel and Buffy. It was a disaster waiting to happen.
Well this last chapter is rather interesting, having Buffy see Giles' memories is new and different I think I like it. I am looking forward to how the SG-1 team reacts to both Buffy and Giles. I am eagerly awaiting the next installment to this wonderful story.
Comments from author:
Thanks, I am happy it amused you. More will come when I can. Unfortuately I have homework this weekend and work. So, it may be a while before I add more then a chapter or two to this or my other fics. I have a lot that need attention. To bad I cannot do this as a living. :) Of course if I was that good I would not do fanfic lol.

I was with you up to A: Tara being alive, and, B the Oogy lover relationship that is kinda so OOC, I could buy Tara's ressurection by Buddha easier than this concept. It seems you're just grooming an instant lioness of a mother-figure for Cassie. Was loving it up until those.

Excellent story idea! I love BtVS/SG:1 crossovers almost as much as I love B/G. :) Having Giles be the one related to a member of SG:1 is unusual, but interesting. I also like that you have President Hayes as belonging to the Council.
I do agree with one of your earlier reviewers that having some ex-Initiative soldiers would be very cool. I can't wait to see what happens next. Please update soon.
very interesting story. I have not thought of such a cross-over before, I look forward to seeing how you imagine it. I'm interested to see how much you will meld Janet and Giles' worlds. Also, did Janet really never mention to anyone (even her friend Sam) that she has someone else in mind as a guardian for Cassie?
I have two suggestions: first, update with longer chapters, rather than updating twice in one day. It can be very annoying, for many people, to read only 600 words on one page. It's okay to take a week (or even a month) to update, as long as the chapters are juicy and worthwile.
Secondly, try to not write such long paragraphs. The information and flow in your paragraphs is good, but it is very dense to read, so break it up and put in more spaces.
All in all, I am excited to see where you will go. Thank-you for sharing your writing with us.
Comments from author:
Thanks for the advice and I will try to keep it in mind. Generally my chapters are about 1,000 to 1,500 words or so.
I will try to keep in mind the suggestions about chapter lengths and paragraph lengths as well. No promises but I will try. I appreciate the adivce.
Thanks,
Fire
