this buffy seems to have most off what she needs to grow into portal-buffy (and skip some of the pain.) very good read, thank you.
glad to know my shortcuts seem to be working

Brilliant chapter. I love portal Buffy's heart to heart conversation with Giles, especially when she shares her view of Spike with him. This is the mature Buffy that we saw developing at the end of the series. Her characterization here rings very true. I'm looking forward to more of this fic. I can't wait to see how portal Buffy's revelations change events in this timeline.
*grins* yup. she's massively more mature than i am, so she's hella hard to write. i'm glad you're enjoying the fic.

Enjoying the tale. However, wondering if possible TMI will affect outcomes.
that's what the forget-me spell is for - a failsafe. well, so i hope.
i dunno; i thought portal-buffy was being impressively discreet. it'd be too easy to go back and say: this is gonna happen, so just go with it. and fix this, this, and this. even when buffy asked about riley, p-b didn't actually say what was going to happen, she just gave her some insight. or i could be full of it. lemme know.

Wow, this is good. My only fear is that we're covering a lot of territory - at least in exposition - in a hurry, and I don't want this story to be over. I can hardly wait for the next chapter.
thanks! and no worries, we're only on day one of a week

This chapter was so incredibly fantastic!! I love how you still allowed S4 Buffy to figure things out for herself and come to the conclusions she needed to - with only some prodding form Portal-Buffy. This chapter worked so beautifully, but the moment at the end with Portal-Buffy asking S4 Giles to kill Ben was heart-breaking in a really moving way. I definitely cannot wait to read more!
*skips* your review just made me beyond giddy. i'm glad what i was trying to do came across, and that there was heart-tweaking to be had. thanks so much!

Outstanding.
Introducing the Scoobies, and Buffy in particular, to the harsh realities of Slayerdom this early will make so much difference. More please.

Star performances from both Buffys, Spike, and Giles! Great job with the dialogue.
cheers!

Good chapter. Update soon. Time travel fics are my favorite, and I hope Portal!Buffy is able to help.
glad you liked it. of course, we could get to the end and find out she muffed the whole thing, and willow has to erase it all...

Oh this is spectacular! You are walking that fine line perfectly.
Love a more insightful and contemplative Buffy (have high hopes for this Spuffy in this dimension). Love friends that are already being relegated to followers instead of calling Buffy's shots. ADORE Giles with his mind intact...not parroting the Council but really listening and learning and THINKING....love him!
Love Portal Buffy trying to make things better. So sad her Spike died there in LA but it is a matter of hope that he won't have to in this dimension and that has to give her comfort.
Love the way you reveal our Spuffy history, sad as it is (it DOES fit the likelihood Joss left us with even if his comics go another route). Just enough to clue us in but keep our mind on THIS group.
Obviously Dawn is already on the scene in S4 of this universe. Good!
Looking forward to more. This is a joy to read.

Great story, mainly because we are finally getting someone to say what should have been said ages ago.
Another example with Spike and humans would have been portal buffy herself: After spending time around spike and in England, she has begun to think British (Tea, wankers...). Its simple grouping mentality.

yup; scoobies are a herd, and spike's perfectly willing to run with 'em.
glad you like it.

Oh my God... That's all I can say. I really should pull some incredibly insightful remark out of my ass, some comment or review that will constructively critique your work, but I can't. Unfortunately, I've been run over by a wonderful story, and can only lie here on the side of the road going "Oh my God. Medic! Need another update soon! Medic!" Bravo.
um... sorry to cause you squishiness...?
*grins* i'm so, so glad you liked it. the first chapter was so peppy, i was a bit worried about making this one more serious.
