I also came here from crossoverfic and I thought it was awesome. I would never imagine them together usually but the way you wrote them it works really well. I loved it!

Thanks! It's wonderful to hear that you liked the story so much, especially since the thought of Giles and Snape together was new for you! [Me too since I hadn't read any.]

I absolutely loved this - it was so much fun to read your take on how the different kinds of magic could work together, and how these two men, who are occasionally prickly and also wicked, could work out together as well. I think you created a magnificent and highly entertaining story that I totally couldn't stop reading. Do you think you'll ever do anything more in this verse? Anyway, thank you for this - great fun to read and made me like Snape far more than I have in the past!

Thanks! I'm really glad you read and enjoyed the story and how I blended the two types of magic! These two men are prickly yet confident and sexy, and I'm happy to hear that you liked them together here. I've begun a sequel, but it will be much darker (just as Buffy tended to have a light episode before a darker one).

Ubi, this was wonderful!! Your writing never disappoints, not for a single minute. I loved your portrayal of Snape, the humor and the meld of Potter and Buffyverse was seamless. I cannot wait to read your sequel.

Thanks! I'm so happy that you liked it and the way I brought the 2 verses together (and the 2 men - grin)!

EEEE!! I can't even begin to tell you how much I love this. Your Giles and your Snape are absolutely amazing. I love the plot! And Buffy and Willow and Xander were all wonderful and spot on and I just LOVE this. *fangirls like crazy*

Thanks! I'm really glad that you enjoyed the plot and the characterizations of everyone! I really like G and S, so it's great to hear that you like this depiction of them.

I cannot believe I didn't leave a review for this once I finished it up! :( Mayhap I was left reeling like a lustful drunken lout around the room - heh!

Fantastic job with this - the characters and the plotting are tight and well drawn. I really enjoyed the crossover aspect of it and found it totally plausible the way you presented it!

Wonderful!

Thanks! It's great to hear that enjoyed the rest of the story (including the steamy bits)! Also wonderful that you liked the characterizations and the mix of the two worlds!
