oh damn, like how you handled the body. Well done again. If Xander is a human with the mind of a timelord he's totally doomed, if he (hopefully) has the enough capacity he would know what that would have done to Donna and will have to undergo a mindwipe, unfortunately the doctor for all that he is fictional has a much broader presence here for Xander to run into to bring it all back. A nasty catch 22. Looking forward to chapter 7!

The only complaint I have about this brilliant story (and it is brilliant - you've caught Doctor's character quite well) is that Doctor lies about his age. There are indications that he's well over two thousand even before his ninth incarnation (9th incarnation 900 years - sounds like he made a number out of 100 years per incarnation). Other than that, this is glorious.

very good

Logical Xander. Its enough to throw anyone off. I wonder just how much of the good doctor was left behind though. Oh, touching on the fact that The Doctor had kids and grandkids. Something later Doctor's refuse to go into with anyone. Which is understandable.

Over protective Joyce. Nice. Little weird with the akward hugs, but nice I guess. Dunno how the whole dead person in the kitchen's going to go over when Buffy and her mom talk. Great chapter, update soon.

I am really enjoying this amazing story. You've thought out well how Dr Who's presence might have affected Xander. I look forward to reading more.

Absolutely brilliant, especially when Xander remembers his children.

Oh my dear sweet Lord. I can't put it better than JonnyNapalm did; that's one of the best come-downs from Halloween I've ever read. Xander's realisation that he shouldn't be able to think what he's thinking, his fear of a genuine metacrisis and his struggling to cope with a merely human body again... beautifully done. Thank you.

this is an utterly interesting story. I really like how you've developed it, as well as the character voices. Xander's disorientation after the spell ends is particularly vivid as his mind darts from point to point. And I do like how he realizes that there is two possibilities as to what happened to Willow. (and have to say within the buffy'verse logic she really should have died from that spell b/c lying there exposed on a porch meant free food).

I'm very interested in where this might go.
And I do have to say thank you for writing a Gen story (in that there are no couples other than established in canon at the time) because sometimes I just want to read a well-written story that doesn't go there with one pairing or another.

So far so good, keep it up!!

Okay... that was just. Stunning. Really. There were moments in the middle of reading that I went back and re-read the previous thoughts Xander just had, because I think that was one of the most remarkable 'come downs' from the Costume incident I think I've ever read. The realization that he's having thoughts that he SHOULDN'T be having was the first in a long line of remarkable moments you created in this piece, rapidly followed by Xander trying to cope with his own mind/body connection straining, and trying not to go mad from the multiplicity of thoughts running through his head. 'Schrodinger's Willow' though...that and all the bits and pieces around it were fantastic. His awareness triggering on Cordelia as she tries comforting the terrified children? Great moment. I don't think that I've ever seen folks recognize that moment in detail before, and it really is one of those indicators that Cordy is much more than she acts like. The moments with Angel on the way back, with Xander becoming more self-aware, and finding the police already at the Summers home were all really good original moments. Though to be fair to Xander, as much as the Doctor's personalities would be frustrated, he's done a lot of good with less reason to than the Doctor's have. Great material.

Oh, I hope Xander has some biological change. At least for the moment it looks like his brain won't fry. Thanks for continuing!

The high school?

Why do I have a horrible feeling Snyder will somehow be aware of the situation and trying to have Buffy expelled/arrested/deported/committed?

Absolutely brilliant. Very much liking the skewed lens that Xander is now seeing the world through. Plus makes a change seeing real life intrude with consequences to be had.

A fine addition to Who stories on here. Be nice to see where it goes.

Any chance of a Chameleon Arch being cobbled together and being used? As a metacrisis is so not of the good. And in thanks ~ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3jALFbbUSac

Just found this story. Look forward to seeing the next update. Especially since it looks like Xander might be regenerating.
