COMPLETE -An Empire of Broken Toys

Man. This is horrible. I mean the story is great but whats happening, jeez. I feel like I wanna just go find Willow and beat the shit out of her parents. I mean god. So much abuse its just crazy. Hopefully Dream will come through and save Willow from the hell she goes through every day.

Man that was a tough story... but ultimately positive in the end. It's great that Willow and 'Dream' finally found each other, but I thought the real victory was that Willow stood up for herself in the end.



Good that Willow's out of her 'home', but I hope Willow's parents get held accounatble for what they've done. They're just... augh!



Really effective use of vignette-style scenes too, the exchanges between Buffy and her mother, and Buffy and Xander in particular conveyed a lot in just a few words.

Hello Kittens-



That was a hard story mostly because the helplessness was so well wrought. I will add to the others' observations I'm glad 'Dream' gives Willow the courage to know she has good people who care in her life. Her decision to rescue Xander with this courage, and Tara, is heartening.



But I still want to geld her father with a blowtorch.

Hey-



I really liked it, and like everyone else has stated before me it really kinda pulls on your heart strings. The fact that people actually go through that kinda abuse. Other then that I wished it would have gone on for longer, but alas all good things must come to an end or in Willows case just start out. Hope you finish your other fics soon.
