[Cindy Lou Who]

Oh yep...



...for anyone who wants one...on ME! I'm buying for the house.



Whew...yum...whew.~~~Suse



P.S. Always call for a "late check-out." It's a given

[Vampivy]

“Cindy Lou Who” I’ll gladly take one…



Oh Debra I’ve been bad not posting feedback for a while. I’m sorry. No excuses though. Boy am I glad the holidays are over.



Anyways back to the important stuff. Brief feedback on all that I missed out on. Don’t want to take too much of your time cause time is "precious" and I love spending mine reading VERY well written Fic like this one thank you very much.



Chapter 18: Willow. Wow that girl conquered her fear of horses long enough to go meet Tara at the stables and be so kind and take Tara out for a picnic. Gotta love that girl. Rose spell, the connection between them was amazing.



Chapter 19: Poor Willow she was so nervous. I don’t blame her. So nice to see Michelle there to ease her nerves a little. The date was **sniffles** beautiful. From what they wore to where they went. Tara made it so romantic (Duh you made it so romantic) and you gave this (Me) hopeless romantic a much need dose of romance. Thank you. In the end of this chapter, I just couldn’t love Tara more. The pace of your story we spoke about before “Impeccable” as always.



Chapter 20/21: What can I say Debra. Truly worth the wait. I have a tendency that when reading very well written intimate scenes between our girls I just become speechless. I can’t even begin to describe how great these two chapters are. Just please know that they are and WOW.



Chapter 22: The now semi-infamous chapter. I have to admit, me got a little confuzzled too, but when I read it I was still recovering from all the drinkage on new years day. Regardless I still understood it. I recognized it right away as your own unique version of “Wish”. (Thanks by the way to Xita for her input ) I really want to see this Fic to continue and in my opinion it all was written very well. No “offense” taken here just a whole a lot praise for you being able to roll with the punches.



Chapter 23: Oh Dios Mio. OhmyGoddess Wow. I found myself with a huge smile on my face after this one. Still got it too. Your love scenes are so descriptive and I the reader cant help to feel like, Damn, definite cold shower worthy. I found myself giggling like a child sometimes and blushing profusely too. This was so very hot. Happy New Year indeed.



Chapter 24 : I love all the whispering they do. It adds to the intensity of their intimate moments. Willow and Tara both have a great sense of humor in your story. I love that. Mine can be a little “sassy”. Sometimes too much. I had to stop and smoke myself a cigarette half way thru this chapter it was so intense. No more catching up on chapters all at once for me. I’m left completely breathless and in dire need of a cold shower and I’m so greedy I want more. Por Favor? Please?



I’ve taken WAY too much of your time and I believe this is the longest post I’ve ever written. I can't thank you enough for writing this story. And I’m just simply exhausted. Asta luego Debra.



Please check your email. I have a question for you that I felt may not be appropriate to ask here regarding another of your stories.

Nick – Hey, happy Birthday a day late. I didn’t know but :bounce :bounce :bounce for you. I’d take a guess at your age but it would probably make me feel ancient. Woo hoo for birthdays. I hope you were queen for the day.



Yeah the “uh” is great and I will keep it coming although not in such post-after-post fashion as here. This was a getaway/anniversary/first-time weekend so a little unusual. Thanks as always.



Suse – Buying cold showers for the house huh? Cool. Ok, no duh cool debra, cold showers = cool. Ha ha. I guess they could have called for a late checkout but it’s not like they (or me) spend a lot of time staying in hotels so they didn't know. I’m the original travel-hater so wouldn’t think of that. I’m going to SF next month for a conference and I’m like, “I’d rather be home.” Plus which I feel like if I’m going to SF, I should be really gay there but since I’m as gay as I am here, what’s to add to that? Ok, now I’m just being OT and funny. Thanks for your post.



Patty – First off, thanks so much for your first few lines. Means a lot to me that people think my fic is well written and appreciate it. Take as much of my precious time as you want. (note the new sig) I love feedback and comments. Must have been a long vacation for you. Welcome back.



Chapter 18 – yes, Willow is working on it. Not so much because she wants to be around horses but because she loves Tara so much (oops, I shouldn’t have said it there huh? Not for another few chapters but hey, we all know it anyway). And she’s very sweet about the picnic.



Chapter 19 – the date – Ahhh, thanks for thinking it/Tara/me so romantic. Keep in mind, you’re not a hopeless romantic; you’re a hopeful romantic. :heart Glad you like the pace.



Chapter 20/21 – Thanks for the thud. Glad you liked it. I wanted to make them very special and loving and intimate between our girls both for the first time together and for the first time (and probably 100th by now) saying those important words.



Chapter 22 – Wow, I have a semi-infamous chapter. I guess I thought that until now Turned part 13 was probably my semi-infamous part. Now I have a new one. Yes, recovering from drinkage can make thinking more difficult. Also, drinkage can make thinking more difficult. Either condition not condusive to tricky FF. Thanks for not taking any offense and for seeing it right away. Just a new Universe to land in. The fic will continue so have no fear. Thanks for your praise.



Chapter 23 – Wow, in Spanish nonetheless. Yeah, I’d say that’s my favorite scene for the two of them yet. The whole thing with Willow teasing Tara and their position and everything. Ok, took a few deep breaths here. Damn. Glad you liked so much.



Chapter 24 – Yes,they fit together and have great timing and humour. I’m glad that it sounds good outside my head too rather than just inside. Because in my head, they are charming and sexy and funny and I want to put that on the paper (ok, computer screen). I’ll take it as a compliment that you had to take a break but not so great about the cigarette. :no But… Enjoy your cold shower. I’ll post again in a few days. Unless I catch up to the point that I have written, I’ll try to always post every 2 days, maybe 3. Right now, I have 3-4 parts written in advance so that’s good.



Take as much time as you want. I love to read and write the comments. I wrote back to your e-mail. Debra :wave

okay must say they make quite the scientists they can study anytime cant say i blame thm for wanting to be accurate that was simply amazing i must sayand of course what to say of that lovely scene wow is all i can say

or maybe just amazing



willow:hear that baby youre my always

thank you

[Grimaldi]

lovely update



Willow is a very dedicated scientist

Dude, we're surrounded by perverts!
I'm not stealing, I'm just taking things without paying for them. In what twisted dictionary is that stealing?

[samiamiguess]

Ok, so I'm a physicist that until now has been unable to decide whether engineer or scientist better describes my role. Well now I know, sod the boring engineering lark scientific verification is definitely the way forward.



That is as long as I don't lose my job first. I'd finished reading this when my boss came by to see how my work was progressing. Luckily I switched windows in time for him not to see. Ok, phew. Only for me to have to open another Word doc to show him something (I'd copied your text into word to make it a little less conspicuous on my pc). And there for him to see was your update. I believe it was just when Tara was getting Willow to 'turn around' into a more favourable position. I got rather flustered and hastily tried to close it but there was just silence. Oh well. The fic is worth it. Besides, he's a Buffy fan, just probably not a W/T fan in the same way I am!



Loved the gorgeous show of their affections but also particularly liked their discussion of future college. Its wonderful to see Willow appreciate what she has with Tara. I'd also forgotten that this is before Graduation and thus pre Willow/Oz first time so thanks for making this so special (and for reminding me).



Wonderfully enjoyable writing Debra, thanks

Sonya

[JustSkipIt]

Peggy – So mostly wow huh? Good and yeah for that chapter. Thanks.



Grimaldi – Yes, very dedicated isn’t she. Thanks.



Sonya – Ha ha. Now you’re a scientist huh? Cool. I liked the math part of physics but never could get electricity at all. Cool that you are a physicist though.

Ha ha, that is so funny. There are people on board who talk about looking at fic at work and I’m amazed. I do it very slyly but coping to word like you. Also do some writing at work in word but always nervous about it. Yesterday a co-worker had his 11-year old kid there for an hour and boy nothing will make you question whether you should be writing lesbian-NC-17-witch-Fan Fic as fast as that.



Glad you liked the lovlieness and that Willow wants to stay with Tara. Yes, they have to figure out the college question. Thanks for reading.

uh...um..... yeah....



wowsers! ya did it again. This is so awesome. Tara wanting to be a vet. and not wanting Willow to give up Harvard and the whatnot. But, cant UC Sunnydale be an A&M school? Oh, heck just send em to Stillwater. Your writing this set in Texas so hopefully ya know where that is. Of course you could always send them to Texas A&M......ok, got kinda sidetracked there. I am so loving your story.



more soon....please

[TareBearRS]

OMG the last two udates were both extremely hot....



i think ha says it all.... which is good cause i'm currently at a loss for words here....



Hot... yummy... shower....hot... come to mind.

[Velaingie]

Hello,



Beautiful update. At the begining it was really sweet when Tara first woke up and then drew Willow. Liked the discription of Willow how she was lying.

Then it was very , I can't never seem to find my words when I read your fic. Have I already said that I love your fic, if not "I LOVE YOUR FIC, I THINK IT'S JUST AMAZING", there I said it.



Bye

Velaingie

[littlecrazy80]

You did it again!!! You made me

[sheila wt]

Wow, this catching up was soooo good... I just read the last two chapters and now I have to try to get my jaw from the floor and be sure to drink lots of liquid to avoid dehydration from drooling. I wonder if beer works? Ah hell, it has water in it, right?



Goddess, those love scenes were so fucking hot (pardon my French, but I just can't think of a better word to fit here...).



Love every single bit of this story. I didn't think it was possible, but it gets better with any new chapter.

--------------------------
"She had tasted Willow on her tongue, and she had worn Willow on her skin. There wasn't a shower in the world that could have washed that away." (Terra Firma, by Tulipp)

[JustSkipIt]

iceprincess2076 – Yeah for all the thuds. Seems that everyone liked these two posts. Hmmm, I wonder why? Yes, she wants to be a vet and would be a good one I would think. But, that’s the crux. Tara has more limitations than Willow both financially and test score wise. But Willow seems pretty determined to be together so that’s something good right? Oh Goddess, why would I condemn anyone to Stillwater? I’m not that . Ok, my heart is ok, you were just kidding right?



TareBearRS – He he. Hot and lost for words. Yeah for me and yeah for the girls. Yes, they are hot aren’t they? Enjoy your shower.



Velaingie – Yes, glad you liked the first part about the drawing and how Willow was lying. She looked very beautiful in my head. Hope your’s enjoyed it too. And wow, the showers and everything and loss for words. Ahhh, my ego! . Glad you liked.



littlecrazy80 – As always glad you liked it and showering and jaw dropping. Both good.



sheila wt – He he, reading the last two. That must have tired you out :smirk. Enjoy getting hydrated again and glad to make you drool. Glad you fucking liked (pardon my french back. Hey, Vel, that’s french right? :smile). Ahhh, better with every chapter. You are so sweet. Thanks.

HI!!!



First I must say WHOOO & a big



I love this story but now I need defenetly a .



But I hope to see soon an update



Cu SoL/Natti

[deixs]

Dear Debra!



Wow...

I think I need a lng cold shower right now.....



Stef

[Grimlock72]

Wow, our little vixens will have to adjust to going back to campus a lot Willow testing for beginners luck, heh... good excuse that one. Much as I liked the love-making I enjoyed that scene in the bath very much. Just cuddling together like that....



I'm at a total loss as far as school/Uni selection is concerned. Near as I could tell Tara is likely going to a school/Uni called A&M which is in Texas to become a vet. So.... it would be handy if Willow would also go to an University which is near that A&M school. Tara would probably be a good painter but she wants to care for people or animals, so Vet makes sense. Would she need a specific score (SAT?) from her current school to apply for a Vet-school ??



It's not as if Willow's parent would miss her much if she were to stay in Texas another 4 years or so Willow panic at the end was sweet Of course she would panic, she *planned* to get up at 10:30



I read something about horsies in a reply, yes I did... Of course Willow *wants* to ride, if only to make Tara happy. Still there's that nasty horsie-fear though, kinda gets in the way.



I wonder how both girls will manage once back in school, they'll have to *behave* and such... heh



Grimmy

[JustSkipIt]

Stroke of Luck – Wow, only your second post and it’s for my fic. I feel so honored. Thanks for reading and commenting. Glad you’re loving it and that you need a cold shower too! Thanks for the thud. Update will be up in a few minutes.



Stef – He he. Sounds like cold showers all around. I think Cindy Lou Who was buying them for the house.



Grimmy – Did I ever tell you how much I appreciate the effort you put into your comments both on my fics and others? It’s very intriguing to get to see my writing from your point of view. Thanks for that.



Yes, both were wonderful in different ways. I’m sure they will adjust fine although they will have to be quiet. Yeah for Sheila getting Will a single room



It doesn’t sound like you are lost about the college issue at all. It sounds like you totally get it. Yes, she wants to go to Texas A&M and then to vet school there and care for animals. Willow can go anywhere for obvious reasons both in Cannon and in this fic. But she wants to be with Tara. I’m no expert on it but I would imagine that she needs a relatively high SAT to get in as an undergrad and then maybe a high GMAT score? I’m not sure what graduate level exam Vets take.



The horses will come up in a while. We still have the trip to Tara’s family and then Sunnydale to work with before we get back to them though. Thanks for all your comments. Debra

Thoughts in italics!





Willow watched Tara moving fluidly toward her carrying the two cups of coffee. As Tara approached, the redhead had ample opportunity to watch her lover. Goddess, she really is beautiful. I love to watch the way she moves. It’s like her balance is totally perfect. And those gorgeous breasts…



“Hey sweetie, do you want to take these so I can get into the seat by you?” The blonde woke Willow from her reverie.



“Uh oh uh yeah,” Willow blushed.



Taking her seat Tara teased, “nice color Will. Goes with your eyes. Anything you want to share about?”



Willow pulled the blanket over their laps, kissing the blonde softly and slowly: “just you baby. Just you.”



Leaning closer Tara whispered in her ear, “sounds like very nice thoughts. Maybe you can tell me about them later.”



“How about I show you?” Willow teased back. “Hey,” she continued, “what’s the deal on later today? Who’s picking us up? Dinner, that stuff?”



Taking the redhead’s hand to begin gently stroking it, Tara explained: “Well, Donnie said he’d pick us up and the train gets in about 4:00.”



“3:47”



“Ok, 3:47 Ms Rosenberg. He’ll drive us out and we can wash up for dinner. Since it’s Christmas Eve, it’ll be a kind of big crowd. Are you ok with that?” Tara explained and then asked, wanting to reassure her lover.



Willow grasped Tara’s hand momentarily before speaking: “Ok. Ok. A big crowd. I probably knew that and forgot it. Actually kind of forgot Christmas all together but ok. Big crowd. Lots of family. All going to check me out and see if I’m good enough for their daughter and do I have to eat ham? And I didn’t bring presents for …”



She was stopped from her rant by Tara’s cool hand on her cheek: “My love. I’m sorry if you forgot about my family. It will be fine. They’re not there to check you out but even if they were, you’d do great. You can eat Turkey or just potatoes and stuff if you want.” She leaned in to kiss her slowly and softly whispering, “I love you Willow Rosenberg.”



“I love you Tara Maclay,” Willow answered before leaning in to kiss the blonde more slowly. She opened her mouth, deepening the kiss with her questing tongue and enjoyed the more intimate contact for a few minutes.



Tara drew back, pulling the redhead to lean against her on the seat before speaking again: “Um b-b-baby, actually I wanted to a-a-sk you s-s-something. A f-f-avor?”



Noting her nervousness, Willow stroked her hand as she answered: “Of course love. Anything.”



“Um, w-w-ell. My f-f-ather. H-h-he… uh well… It’s been h-h-h-ard since my m-m-mother died and …” Tara started crying as she spoke, having more and more difficulty getting the words out.



Willow sat forward to face the blonde, taking her face in her hands: “Tara. I love you. If you need us not to come out to your father, that’s fine. That’s totally up to you baby. I love you and as long as we know that, that’s all that matters to me.”



Kissing the redhead, Tara nodded, “t-t-thanks baby. B-b-ut actually that’s not what I was g-g-going to ask. It’s it’s it’s.” She stopped, taking a deep breath. Finally she said, “It’s the m-m-money.”



“The money?”



“D-d-dad doesn’t know that I don’t have any. He thinks that the j-j-obs pay more than they d-d-do,” Tara quietly explained. “It’s too h-h-hard for him with the h-h-hospital b-b-bills and I don’t w-w-want to make it harder.”



Willow nodded finally understanding: “Baby, no one has to know that I paid for this trip. You can tell him whatever you want. Okay? I’m just so glad you’re going with me to Sunnydale.” Beginning to tickle the blonde, she teased, “maybe I should put you on salary and then you could earn your passage.”



Tara licked up Willow’s neck before whispering in her ear, “hmmm, you think we can find a way for me to work it off?”



Willow gulped loudly pulling the blonde in for another long kiss. As they looked around to note several passengers looking at them—some sneering others leering-- they leaned back in the seat. Tara pulled out her biology book and a highlighter and began studying while Willow resumed her work on her computer.



They worked in silence for quite a while, enjoying their coffee and the motion of the train. After a few hours, Tara put aside her book and went to find the bathroom, kissing the redhead on her way. She returned after a few minutes later with two more cups of coffee to find Willow totally engrossed in her work.



“Hey sweetie, I got us some more coffee. What are you working on?” she asked as she slid into the seat to resume studying.



Willow smiled broadly setting the computer on the surface in front of them before answering: “Well a few things. First, I was finishing up a function for my independent study to predict randomly occurring phenomenon, plotting events and points in space and time. That’s fun but pretty hard.”



Tara nodded not really understanding but wanting to show that she was listening to what her brainy girlfriend was telling her.



“Then, I’m checking some downloads from Sunnydale. See, I have a spider program that scans the police and hospital reports. Plus Mr. Giles sends me information about Buffy and Faith’s kill patterns. Of course, that’s not too reliable because it’s not like either of them takes good notes and he sends them by mail. Ugggh. So it’s weighted lower than the other information. Anyway, that’s compiled and used to keep reconfigure some prediction programs to help them in their work.”



Tara continued nodding as she admired Willow’s dedication to her friends and to helping them in their battle. “Is that it?” she asked.



“No, I have one other program that downloads certain information from the school so I can do some monitoring,” Willow explained vaguely.



“What do you mean monitors school information? Like grades and stuff like that?” Tara inquired.



“Oh no, nothing bad like that. It’s just that the school doesn’t have the e-mail server totally secure. And I want to know about certain types of correspondence. So I monitor all the school’s correspondence and search for certain keywords. If the word is in the subject or body of the note, it downloads to my hard drive to I can check the note later. It too me over a month to complete the application to check the server-- very tight code,” she bragged.



“Ok, what keywords?” Tara asked cautiously.



“Oh you know: Willow, Rosenberg, Sheila, supernatural, magic, wiccan, wicca, computer instruction or instructor, Tara, and Maclay. That way I can see if they are having any correspondence about us.” She pulled the computer onto her lap before pointing to a folder.



“See, they are automatically placed in these folders according to the key word they hit on and marked whether I have read them or not. It’s pretty cool programming.” She showed her obvious pride in her ingenuity as she began opening notes to show her girlfriend: “See this one. Did you know that my mother sends a note every week asking how I’m doing in school? Basically she wants to know if I’m acing everything and getting into any trouble.”



Tara nodded, “Right. And what does Ms. Geller say?”



“Oh good stuff. Just that I had the two detentions for the note Ms. T took but other than that, all good reports. No blowing up the library or anything,” she smiled as she kissed the blonde. “Do you want to know what yours turn up?”



“N-n-no,” Tara answered somewhat tersely.



“Why not baby? I’ve got the notes right here. It’s all good I promise and I’ve been running it for a few months,” Willow explained.



Taking the computer from Willow and setting it on the table, Tara explained: “B-b-baby. It d-d-doesn’t sound right.”



“How not right? I mean this information is all just sitting there on the server.”



“In someone else’s m-m-mailbox sweetie,” Tara responded.



“Ok, well technically in someone else’s mailbox. But don’t you think if the security was that important, they’d make it more secure?” Willow asked.



“Well, let’s say it was more s-s-secure. Would you still r-r-read the messages?” Tara inquired.



“Sure. It would just take longer to crack but it would be fun. Like a puzzle, you know?” Willow responded, excited by the prospect of a new puzzle.



“I love you Willow but I don’t think it’s right to do that,” Tara finally told her.



Willow pouted as she responded, “ok, whatever. If you want I can remove your name from the scan but I’m not going to stop doing it. Are you going to turn me in?”



Tara brushed Willow’s hair from her cheek before kissing her softly on the lips: “no. Of c-c-course not, but please r-r-remove my name from your search ok?”



“Ok,” Willow answered as she picked up the machine and returned it to her lap, effectively ending the conversation. Tara watched her lover work for a few minutes before reopening her book.

HUMMM





Tara doesn't want Willow reading about her, huh?





Can't wait for the next update... Meeting Tara's dad, and Sunnydale coming up?



Keep up the great work!!

[yana]

Uh oh, looks like trouble's brewing! Naughty Willow (oh wait, that was earlier, wasn't it?)!



Yana

[Grimlock72]

Willow 'hacker girl' Rosenberg, heh... you go girl Was funny when Tara asked if Willow would hack into a more secured server, of course Willow just views that as a better challenge



She should have know Tara wouldn't like her methods of obtaining information. Tara is more of follow-the-rules type of girl. Having said that I can't think of anything concerning Tara in mail that would require action. I can understand Willow wanting to know what her parents tell the school though, it's not like they talk to her themselves



Tara on Willow's payroll, sounds fun... but I doubt Tara would accept money from Willow like that. Sure Willow can pay for a trip for them both but thats likely the extend to which Tara will accept other people's money.



Willow really should learn to explain things better. Either she was vague on purpose on her other programs or it all does make sense in her head. Trying to predict anything based on Buffy's behaviour is tricky business anyway .

[xita]

I don't think Tara's hiding anything. I just think she's a by the book kind of gal. This is typical Willow pushing the boundaries because she can. She thinks it is for a greater good so that makes it ok. Hmm, interesting nevertheless, I am sure this will have consequences down the line.

If I had to live my life again, I'd make the same mistakes, only sooner.

Tallulah Bankhead

[KJchicago]

Deb - thanks for the last few updates. I agree that Tara has nothing to hide. It's just something she's uncomfortable that Willow hacks into other people's private Emails.



And in my own personal life, I wouldn't want my girlfriend reading things written about me or to me unless I shared them with her. We respect each other's privacy. Neither of us would read the other's journal/diary.

[littlecrazy80]

I think Tara doesn´t hide anything.

But there will be consequences for Willow.

HI!!!



well spiing isn´t good. but maybe there is a really good reason why willow does what she does. You know she is a genius



that update was really fast for me. thanx



will that update always be so fast when I post?!



Just want to know how tara will pay the trip to willow. hmmmmmm smoochie!!!



bye SoL/Natti

[Vampivy]

Hey Debra, First off Your Welcome. For a second there I thought, wow this is a long post I should probably stop soon.

Oh and thank you for responding to my e-mail. I wrote back again simply to say thanks and babble incoherently . Sorry.



Now to the good stuff.

Yay! Road Trip! I miss those. There’s so much potential for detours and stuff ... Poor Tara being all worried about her family. She’s always looking out for everyone. Never one to burden anyone with her problems. Glad to see that she was able to let Willow pay for their trip. Return payment guaranteed to be tons of fun . Possible Willow/Tara nakedness to ensued. **Keeping fingers crossed**.



Nice to see glances into Hacker Willow and see her potential. She’s so cute when she gets all excited when talking about computers and programs. I was kinda like Tara and nodding alot. Sure I know the basics on how to operate a computer, but when you start talking about codes, complicated programs and hacking, let’s just say I’ll leave that to my brother the computer genius in the family. Won’t go into too much on all the goodies he can do, but I’m pretty damn impressed.



Basically there’s so much fun to be had on our girls road trip. I know, I know, things can’t be all hugs and puppies and strippers . Ooppss . Where the hell did that come from ? Uhmm…I can’t wait to read more for sure and once again I’m truly enjoying this fic.





Patty

[samiamiguess]

Hi Debra, it may have been PG-13 this time but see, I don't always read for the smut. Not always. Not when its this enjoyable anyway.



Two things grabbed me here, when Tara asked Willow for the favour I thought, hmm money. No I'm not being smug honest, I actually thought she was going to say something like don't mention that you have money or something so I was wrong anyway. Its just Tara to me has always seemed the more comfortable with her sexuality so I didn't think it was going to be about that and you've been continually realistic in your portrayal of Tara's money situation. I just couldn't understand how issues of jobs etc were so simply glossed over by ME but perhaps I was thinking too deeply!



The other thing was Tara's reaction to Willow's hacking, as others mentioned I think it was simply because she felt it was wrong to delve into someone else's private mailbox. This made me wonder if now that Willow has met Tara at an earlier age whether Willow would find herself guided a little better not just in magic but with other aspects that the scoobie's may condone for the greater good.



Hmm, something for me to ponder anyway. By the way, I love how you have our girls showing delicate affection in public.

On with the roadtrip

Nick – You sure have been close to your computer lately-first note each time. Done any writing on HsD? Hint Hint. As some later readers seem to be discussing, it’s not so much that she doesn’t want Willow reading about her; it’s that she thinks it’s wrong to do and doesn’t want to be a beneficiary. Yes, visits to Tara’s folks & Sunnydale coming up. Update in a few days as always.



Yana – Yes, naughty in a different way now.



Grimmy – Yes, exactly Willow’s logic is that if they wanted the information to be really private, it would be more secure but if it was more secure, she’d just try harder to hack it. Very Willow logic. And yes, Tara just doesn’t want to be involved in that type of thing. But Willow is kind of “rules are made to be bent or broken – girl.”



Yes, the on the payroll thing is just a teasing thing. They’re not seriously thinking of anything like that. Ha ha about the explaining. I have that problem with my wife. I come home and want to explain to her about some code (either genius or stupid) and have to go into such detail that I know her eyes glaze over. But I want to explain it well enough for her to get it. In her defense, she listens and understands very well (better than some actual programmers I know).



Xita – Xita, you are right on every count. Tara not hiding anything but wanting to follow the rules. Willow is morally ambiguous at best in many situations. And yes, consequences to come or at least some hinting of differences in their moral and ethical makeup. That said, of course there will be consequences; there are consequences for everything. Still cookies to Xita for hitting every nail on the head.



KJChicago – Thank you for your reading and comments. And again, yes, nothing to hide just uncomfortable with the rule breaking. I agree about the privacy and my wife and I would not read each other’s journals. While I could have privacy about my e-mail etc., I don’t particularly want it. I would really question why I would have the wish to keep anything in a correspondence private from her. So she can read anything she wants but doesn’t. The only restrictions are info about like surprises for birthdays, etc. But I can certainly see a higher wish for privacy.



littlecrazy80 – Yes and yes: no hiding and consequences in the future.



Stroke – Yes bad for spying. I’m not sure that Willow does have a good reason to do it besides wanting to be informed and not wanting to be blindsided like being sent to school (although that did turn out pretty darn good). Ha ha and wishful thinking about the updates after you post. Just luck of timing this time. Expect them every 2 days or so. Yes, smoochies although not really a payroll type thing but smoochies always for &



Patty – Thanks a ton. Yes, I got the babbling incoherently. Both Rachel and I were thrilled with your question. May wake it back up.



The road trip will be great. First a stop at the Maclay place and then on to Sunnydale and all it entails. Ok, I gotta say this: Anyone notice a hint of a potential problem with the trip from part 18? If not, reread it.



Yes to more nakedness although not as prolific as on that weekend. That was kind of a one-time shot most likely for NC-17 posts in a row. Ha ha not puppies and strippers. It will be a trip!



Sonya – Yeah to not reading for smut always. (sometimes I guess?) Cookie for you for spotting that it would be about money even if you weren’t spot-on. But close is good. Yes, I always thought they totally glossed it over as do many shows. I think that meeting Tara at a earlier age will affect Willow’s magical growth as well as other types of ethical growth. We’ll see. Ahhh, to delicate affection. Always a hard balance to strike.



Thanks for reading and commenting everyone! (tomorrow is s7 marathon for me).

And yes, I'm workin on an update, thank you..Just posted another on OM,T. So there! *sticks out her tongue*



And no, not that Tara would hide anything..and yes, it should be something they share if anything..willow shouldn't have taken it upon her self just to read about her. Just wondered with all the stuttering if Tara was worried about something..that's all. *GRINS*



HEHE..am I first again??? HAHA!
