Finally! Was looking forward to the showdown at the OK Corral. Glad they got that sorted. I've spent a pleasant ten minutes or so envisioning varying scenarios for when Voldemort and Buffy meet. Most of them take place in the Great Hall, in front of Umbridge, after which she ends up quite dead. My favorite was by Voldemort having a Polgara in his ranks and the demon using its skewer on her. That was a nice fantasy. Looking forward to what you really do with it.
Wrote this nice review then Firefox moved me back to the login page don't know if it posted or not. Can't remember what I exactly wrote anyways. Great Update. Awaiting more.

This is the problem. Letting little things like work & wedding plans get in the way of the important things in life, like writing fan fiction. For shame! Anyway... Nice to see Dawn making a new friend. Who knows about the green glow thing and is ok with it. Hm, I wonder what colors other people glow in. What, there's no future for Buffy/Tom? Way to give up easily! Ok, maybe not easily. It's the nose, isn't it? Not having one is kind of a turn off, I suppose. Maybe if he got a silver one like the guy in the film "Cat Ballou". Moving on... I take it buffy did not get a good evaluation out of Umbridge? Darn. If the club gets shut down, just open a new one with a different name. I'm sure that will work. Maybe if B. brings Drusilla in as a guest lecturer for Divination class?

Well, if I'm homeless, computer-less and internet-less because I stopped working to write fanfiction and had to pawn all of my stuff for food, I wouldn't be able to keep posting, now would I?

WOW Thank you for the update! Loved it. Dawn and Luna are friends, after judo class together. Toad showed up for Judo class (I know it is not a judo class but that is what Buffy taught for that class.) and didn't approve. What does she really approve of? NOTHING...... (I used to wonder if she was under the Curse that she was trying so hard to tear down Hogwarts or if Dumbledor had turned her down or something like that.)

I love it, when I just stumble over a story and then, when I start to read it, just can't stop. Even if it keeps me from preparing and writing an important paper.
Last night, I started reading "About the Blood" and it was alreaday way past midnight, when I finally finished it and started to read the sequel. Both stories got me hooked. I loved the way you portrayed a young Tom and what Buffy said was right: you aren't born evil. And I'm sure that if Buffy had had the chance to stay, he never would have become Voldemort.
But I can't wait to see how this will play out in this story. How will they react, when they meet again? Could Buffy maybe save him?
Looking forward to the next chapter! :)

PS: Are there gonna be Horcruxes in the story?

I'm giving Buffy until Easter to lose her temper and slug the toad. And I think I'm being generous with that.
Anyway...Nice to see that you updated, and I'm looking forward to more! I know that OotP moved as slow as molasses in January (kudos for the partial Looney Tunes reference!), but I'm glad to see you're sticking with it. Also, an update to Sunnydale Shinigami would be much appreciated!
On an unrelated note: How many fandoms outside of Buffy/Harry Potter/Bleach are you active in?
Comments from author:
Update on Sunnydale Shinigami is next on my list. I'm just shy of 1,000 words out of a goal of 4,000. I'm hoping to get something up this coming weekend, barring any disasters.
As for fandoms... there's a list on my profile of what I'm currently writing in. I was also planning on putting a list like this on my prompt post when I get it up on Saturday. Just for simplicity's sake, I'll list them here:
Fandoms I've written or have story beginnings: Buffy Harry Potter Bleach Glee The Big Bang Theory NCIS The Expendables Vampire Knight
Fandoms I could probably write in ficlet form: Star Wars (all movies, no extended universe) Star Trek (depending on where it's set. I've watched OS, TNG, Voyager and most of the movies) Bones (earlier seasons) CSI (earlier seasons) Criminal Minds (earlier seasons)
I read more than that, but I don't feel comfortable enough with the material to write about it.
