oh god!

wonderful.. looking forward to the next update

I really hate having to say his but someone needs to slap Tara - really hard.

Ouch

Interestingly, it seems like Willow and Tara have reversed their earlier positions, from a certain point of view: where before Willow was more insulated from harsh reality, and Tara more worldly, now I'd argue that Tara is concentrating more on her perceptions of her world, and Willow is facing the facts unfiltered.

I feel like Tara's deeply unhappy, and doesn't know how to deal with it - perhaps she doesn't even realise, fully, where the unhappiness is coming from. Of course she knows she hurt Willow, but I think the believes that the Willow-loving part of her is boxed up and sealed away, until the day when (perhaps) she feels she's ready to return to Willow, in the belief that she can be a good partner for her. But unknown to her, the Willow-loving part of her is having a fit, and making her do things she wouldn't dream of, like being so cold towards Willow herself. It's like she's hurt, just seeing Willow hurts, but she doesn't realise it, and doesn't realise that she's being driven by a reaction to that hurt.

At the same time though, I do have to recognise Tara's bravery - misplaced though it is - in setting her sights on a goal and not flinching when things get difficult. And no matter how upset she is over Willow, or how driven she is to be self-sufficient, it can't have been easy for her to put on that outfit, and accept what she was doing. Her resoluteness, her force of personality, adds to the tragedy of her and Willow drifting apart, and her falling off the rails - she's not just some helpless victim, to be pitied and nothing more, I really think she's got what it takes to achieve her goals in a way she won't regret later... but she's confused inside, and making decisions without fully understanding her own reasons.

Incidentally, nice Resident Evil Beaver. I probably have to explain that I found the part of Resident Evil with Milla naked, full frontal and all (at that point in the movie, on the commentary track, Michelle Rodriguez yells "Beaver shot!"), a very surprisingly masterful bit of cinema (especially being that it's in an otherwise fun-but-dumb film), because it completely avoided being titilating, and simply reinforced Milla's vulnerability. And showing Milla naked, without being titillating? That takes talent. Hence, a 'Resident Evil Beaver,' a moment where the meaning behind what is seen completely overrides the base instinctive reaction to seeing it. In this case, Tara dressed all sexy, doing the sexy dance... not an arousing thought at all, just then.

So, Kitten Race TARCon? Smiles? Hugs and cuddles? Something? Please?

[DarkChild]

Wowsers.

Here I amj sitting down for some 'light' reading (yeah, that nevers happens though), and I find yet another fanfic that gets me completely hooked. When I finished this chapter and saw that there were none after it, I was all 'Noo!'.

So here I am, eagerly waiting for the next chapter. And

[hermitfish]

Oh, watty...I think I'm handing over the Mistress of Angst title...you outclass me so and far more richly deserve it.

The chasm between the two of them, already firmly established, continues to grow.

It's hard for me to point at Tara and blame her intentions though. One thing that is stone set in her mind is to not end up in the life she saw around her as a child. She can risk never finding love or bending her morals or whatever if she can just get out.

It is a desperate sort of struggle...and very real, might I add.

The inner conflict though...ouch. It must hurt her so much to see Willow...to imagine that avenue. She can't be 'just friends' as she stated. That's why it's so understandable (heartbreaking, but understandable) that she cut herself off from Willow.

I do wonder if she gets what she wants in career department, will that be enough? And what will the process of getting there have done to her along the way?

I'm captivated, Mistress.

ah watson..."sigh" Lovely update! And YAY it was updated lol So...Tara's a mean bitchy bitch who is frolicking around humping Faith....ooh the fun that's in store!!! In a not so fun kinda way obviously!!! I enjoyed this update and hope you write more sooner rather then later!

[AntigoneUnbound]

Ah, Watson--What a great tale you're weaving here. As I mentioned on another thread, I like that you're playing with class in this story. I always hated how monochromatic the show was, and how limited in its SES scope. Here we see one woman who fell on hard times (by virtue of her father's investments) and another who has never had money and swears that she will one day.

I love how you're writing this Tara. I mean, I don't love her actions, but I understand them. It's so easy to make Tara the saint, and she's not. Here, she knows what it's like to wonder where the food's gonna come from and where she's going to live. The idea of being perpetually indebted terrifies her; it's the albatross she'll do anything to be free of.

And what a hot kiss at the Prom...Oh, my...

You know, when Tara was pleading for them to go back to being friends, I thought, "Oh, girl--I don't think it works like that. At least, it never did for me." And sure enough...

I can't wait to see where this goes, Watson. Where the hell did Tara move? And just how far is she willing to go for this financial solvency?

Great work!
Mary

[kindagay]

Oh, more pain for my poor heart, such very well written, but so painfully intense angst

Okay, of course you get a Yay! for the update-y-ness, 'cos it is so very good to see an update to this wonderfull fic of yours But, why does there have to be so much wonky angst between our girls? *pout*

Willow, poor Willow is bordering on depression - throwing herself completely into college work; a practically non-existant social life; not sleeping properly; by the sounds of it, not eating properly either & not talking about what's wrong.
Actually, about that whole, not talking about it thing - Buffy is sharing a room with her, it's uhm, how long since Willow & Tara's big argument? definitely a good few months by now right? and Buffy's only JUST decided to ask Willow what's bothering her???? What kind of a friend is she? - Bad Buffy

And Tara, well, I'm just shocked and appalled, someone needs to sit that girl down and give her a very stern talking to, her behaviour is simply unacceptable and unnecessary. The way she spoke to Willow was extremely harsh & rude, Willow's done nothing wrong, she didn't deserve that.
I get it, I do, I get Tara's thinking, I see how her extremely wonky logic works, I can even understand, to some extent, the how & why of her current behaviour & attitude, but it's just, not what I expect from Tara. I hate to say this, but she's acting like a big jerk.

This worries me...

"...remember what I've always wanted? To make it big by myself? I'm willing to go to any lengths,"

That's the kind of attitude that's gonna land her in trouble & I'm not exactly looking forward to seeing exactly what 'lengths' Tara is prepared to go to.

& now she's up & left, gone to a whole different state (I assume she's moved states?) without a word to uhm, anyone (I assume?). Now fair enough, if she's got a new job which is elsewhere, obviously she has to move, but, moving without telling anyone - what's that about?
Now, I'm curious as to how exactly the new job came about. Did Tara purposefully seek out a job that wasn't in Sunnydale because she'd made a conscious decision to leave? Was the job offered to her & the fact that it was outside of Sunnydale made it that much more appealing? Or was it simply the case that it was a better job which just happened to not be in Sunnydale?

I sense much, much more badness before our girls get back on track & live happily ever after, but, I'm armed with many tissues & lots of comfort food so, I'm prepared for the rollercoaster of angst (even though it's less like a rollercoaster & more like a constant downward spiral followed by, what will undoubtedly be a slow & gruelling uphill struggle).

Okay, just one more little point that I wanted to comment on & then I'll stop babbling...

She worried about how intoxicated Xander was becoming

Do I sense a future drink problem for Xander? I do hope not, Tara's spiral off the track is enough badness without Xander spiralling off too.

Okay, as I said, I'm stocked up on essentials & prepared for the ride, so, if you could update before I eat my way through all my comfort food, that would be great

Hugs

[FineyMcFine]

watson, urgh!

Mmm, so Tara wants to make it on her own in the world so she can feel more like an equal with Willow before embarking on a relationship with her (this may not be her linear plan, but it's essentially why she said she wouldn't start up with her right after prom). However, by the time she "makes it," the way she's going about it, she'll be totally different. So I would say to Tara, after caz slaps her: "At what cost, Tara? At what cost?"

However, speaking of Tara, this is definitely not your mother's Tara. We never got to see this side of Tara in canon, but I guess you never know what a person is capable of in certain situations.

There's something nagging at me, though. It just seems so...un-Tara. I was wondering, is she possibly being coerced? Is Faith threatening her or her family in some way? Because there didn't seem to be any spark left in her, there was nothing between her and Willow - she didn't seem affected at all by seeing Willow at the Bronze. There was no trace of the old love between them, or anything from their friendship.

Is this some kind of evil twin mistaken identity situation?

[Safuega]

Hey Watty:

I have to go with SallyMcFine and wonder about this new Tara. Having cheated and gone over to your site to read ahead and reading this part again, I can't help but wonder if Tara's new harsh attitude reveals an ill concealed resentment towards Willow. It is one thing to want to distance yourself from a person because you think you are not ready to start a relationship, but it is quite another to be deliberately harsh and cold.

True, Tara's life is harsh, but I would argue that it is not one without options. Let's face it, Tara is not in some Third World country where to be born into a certain class is to die in said class. Tara has options, harsh though they might be, and much like everyone else will have to work hard to achieve financial peace of mind but that does not explain the 'stay the hell away from me' attitude.

Oh Watty, awesome update. I was feeling way too happy for no reason this Sunday night, so this update was the much-needed antidote to idle happiness, I say! Oh the heart wrenching agony. Well done!


Thanks for sharing. More soon?

Safuega

[Auburn]

Hey Watson

First, cool new avatar!

Thank you. I thought it was time for a change.

Second, I got Gemma to sigh! Sigh.

Yes you did, it was a big one too. Congratulations.

And as for my previous comments about Tara going on a date with an arse from work. I told myself off for guessing... I hate when that happens it makes me think "Who is telling the story? Me or you?"

My apologies

However, I was almost right. Faith CAN be an arse.

I think Tara is making life difficult for herself, what is the point in having your cake if you cannot eat it? Tara should know that all the money in the world couldn't buy love. So love should come first. Instead of her having to fight up the career ladder alone she could have had the love and support of her best friend and girlfriend. Honestly, some people!

Take your time with the updates I know that the best work comes when it doesn't have a deadline. Great great GREAT update.

Gemma xXxXx

[irishgrl3]

This keeps getting more and more tragic. It's kind of like your first girlfriend with whom your world revolves around says she just wants to be friends. Oh, the pain. I'm so feeling it for Will.

I did like the fact that Willow told Buffy what happened at prom, kind of a coming out so to speak.

This has been a difficult fic to read because what it does emotionally to the reader. But that's what makes this a fantastic story, you are able to make us really feel for the characters. Really well done!
-anna

[ringwaldoeuvre]

First, sorry for the extreme lateness of this reply and bumping it to the top of the thread. I was computer-less and working all. the. time. for the last month, and only just to glimpse your latest chapter. That said, I simply MUST bring on the snark...

So like, you guys? You know that scene in "Bring It On" where the Toros are doing the same crappy routine as a previous squad and you're yelling at the screen, "WHY!? A thousand times, WHY!?" 'Kay, try that with the pain of watching a John Stamos pilot. Serious angst, y'all.

Tara seems to have been labotomized, or zombified, or something, and she's acting like a total assface. This is not good news for Willow, who is really the victim of Night of the Living Tara. Alls I know is, Tara decided to look for brains out of state, and Willow is a wreck. She misses her Zombie Tara.

Buffy tries to be a good friend, consoling Willow over FrankenTara ("Pick a metaphor and go with it. Love, Sars"), much like Anthony Michael Hall when Molly Ringwald is sitting in a broken-down car at her school dance. 'Cept Willow better not give Buffy her drawers. ("What the hell is it with you and Molly? Why not explore the Jennifer Love Hewitt oeuvre? Katie Holmes, perhaps? Love, Omar G") Willow gets her heart stomped and I'm starting to think Tara has actually been abducted by aliens and sent back to earth. Anyway, BodySnatched!Tara! is gone, you guys. Totally gone.

I need a drink.

[justin]

I got behind reading this story and what a place to get caught up

Reading about Willow and Tara drifting apart has been very hard, mainly because it's so well written.

It's good that Willow told Buffy what happened. Mainly because it stops Buffy trying to cheer Willow up by fixing her up with cute guys.

When Tara showed up being an optimist I thought maybe she had decided to take up Buffy's invitation and she might start making some progress with Willow. I mean I wasn't expecting the night to end with them kissing and going off together but that they might start to reconnect a little and move towards being friends again.

Of course even that was too much to hope for. When I read the description of what Tara was wearing I realised that something was up, then things just went from bad to worse.

Oh, oh. I know what's going on. Faith's pretending to be Willow, isn't she? And she's probably spiked Tara's drink with whiskey.

Except that's a differemt fic isn't it?

Then we get the final blow. Willow goes to see Tara to sort things out once and for all and we find she's moved to a different part of the country

Well it could be worse, she could have moved to another country, or the moon. *grumble*

In case it wasn't clear I'm enjoying this fic and looking forward to more

but there’s only one of me (despite my protestations about 648 personalities) and only so many hours a day.

So if we want quicker updates all we have to do is clone you? I'll see what I can do

[Darth Pacula]

G'day, Watson.

Ahh, yes ... angst indeed. I just finished reading your little heart-rending tale up to its current point, and sheesh, you weren't kidding about the angst, were you. You'd have to pity the poor kittens who aren't in the habit of reading disclaimers. They might think they're about to read a happy little tale and along you come, grinning like Hannibal Lector, rip out their still-beating hearts and fire them in a slingshot across the room to go splat against the far wall.

Err ... I might just have gone a wee bit too far with that little description. Oh well, c'est la vie.

Okay. Less waffle, more feedback. I'm getting the impression that this is going to take place over a ten year period, yes? What with that whole difference between 14 and 24 year old POV's at the start. Hey, I can do simple arithmatic! Woo hoo!

I love the way that you've weaved in those people and events we all know so well from the show, but given them all your own little twist to make them your own.

You've made Tara's pater a non-abusive ( well, physically anyway ) career military guy, as opposed to an oppressive ... um ... what-ever-the-hell he was.

Donnie's no longer her brother, but instead a creepy cousin. I have to say you were giving me a whole dueling banjo's, Deliverance vibe there. I mean, hello! Cousins! I don't care how far removed, that's still freaky two headed baby territory!

Then there's Buffy's little broken heart parade, and .... hell, I could go on for ages, but I'll just sumarize and say well done.

Okay, then we have the whole class difference between them. Like Mary said earlier, it's good to see a little more variety from the middle-class white folk that was all we usually saw on the show. Plus, it gives you some extra fodder to mine for the angst-mines. ( Look at me, telling you how to write, when you do such a great job on your own. I'll slap myself upside the back of my skull on your behalf, okay? )

You've really painted a picture of two people from vastly different backgrounds, who have both been damaged by their pasts. Willow and Tara are both carrying so much emotional baggage from the way they grew up, it's going to be one hell of a journey before they can end up happy and together. The angst equivalent of going down a water slide lined with razor blades, right?

You've still popped in those little moments of brightness, such as the prom ( damn fine first kiss by the way ) which provide both a brief breather from the angst onslaught, and serve as a counterpoint that make the bad points all that more darker.

Point in case, the fallout from the afore mentioned kiss. It's like you're trying to perform the emotional equivalent of a mummification. You know, where they break your nose, insert this little hook thing to scramble your innards and ... once more, too much info. I must be giving everyone the impression I'm a psychotic whack-job. Hang on, I am a psychotic whack-job!

Tara found a job as a clerk at a law firm, a small local outfit that boasted the Mayor of Sunnydale as its clients, amongst others. It also claimed affiliation with a larger firm with branches in LA, New York, Cleveland, Atlanta and Boston.

Okay, I'm gonna go with my gut and say that Tara's gone to work for Wolfram and Hart. Not the first job, I mean, but the second one after the spat with Willow at the Bronze.

She knew she had to pull off something special to advance in the ugly, cut-throat path of real life.

With comments like that? Sounds like Evil Inc. to this wee daft git. Which can't bode well, even if they aren't demons. So, that fits in perfectly with the whole angst angle.

Keep the pain coming, Watson. Whatever doesn't kill us only makes us stronger. Unless it cripples us. Or reduces us all to blubbering shells of our former selves. Or .... what have I gotten myself into? Oh well, no stopping now.

Bye for now,
Paul.

Lamplight is on hiatus. [*Duh, it's kinda obvious to anyone who breathes air.*]

I have full intention of completing the fic ... it has an outline already. However I need to find the time to properly focus on it, to give it the attention it deserves. Hopefully when I start posting again, there won't be substantial gaps between updates.

Having said this, and since I promised Auburn that I’d post a chapter if she updates Spark to a Flame, here is a small offering. This one’s for you, Gemma.

Part 7¾

Tara lugged the heavy suitcase up the final few steps toward the station concourse, struggling also with the backpack on her shoulders that was threatening to fall off. Her back ached, her hands were calloused and she had a tremendous headache.

I left Aunt Marie’s with a backpack and a shoe-box of treasured belongings, how could I have amassed so much junk in so little time?

She checked her ticket again, making sure she had the correct details. The platform location still puzzled her somewhat, but she was too tired emotionally and physically to give it more than a cursory thought.

It was too early, the sun was barely peeking out from underneath the dark horizon. The commuter exodus hadn’t begun yet; apart from pigeons and the homeless folks sleeping on newspaper beds, she almost had the station to herself.

The train was already on the platform when she finally arrived. The signage was clearer than she expected, given the oddness. Again, she shrugged it off, she had more on her mind – such as how to lift the suitcase onto the train. She looked around but couldn’t see any staff whatsoever.

She was startled as a group of noisy teenagers suddenly appeared at her side. They were laughing and pushing their baggage carts at top speed, only acknowledging Tara’s presence as they swerved to avoid hitting her.

“Sorry, miss,” a boy in a mess of red hair apologized before running to catch up with the other children, all of whom had red hair too. Except one boy with dark hair.

Where did they come from?

By the time she hauled her baggage into her compartment she was exhausted and more than a little pissed off. Not surprisingly the compartment was empty; she closed the door gratefully and hoped that she would have it all to herself. She gazed out of the dirty window in the direction of the person she was running away from, and she had to try very hard not to cry uncontrollably.

I didn’t even say good-bye, I’m sorry.

All her life, she didn’t fit in. Farmed off to live with her Aunt when her mother died, she’d grown up fast in that dank apartment, learning to be unobtrusive and docile. Her Aunt brought her up, yet she was not her relative.

No one explicitly said it, but she knew she wasn’t like the other kids at school, not just because of her second hand clothes or ability to fade into the background. It was as if she was invisible. Sometimes she felt invisible, especially when she had summoned up enough courage to speak up, yet none of the other kids would even acknowledge her contribution.

She couldn’t put her finger on the exact moment, but by the time she was eleven she knew she was not a typical child. She discovered that she had an uncanny way of somehow knowing the thoughts or emotions of the people around her. She also carried the overwhelming feeling of constantly searching for someone … it seemed to be her life’s purpose. She knew, without knowing why she knew, that once she found this person, she would never know despondency and rejection ever again.

It was this thought that enabled her to shrug off the taunts throughout school. Children were relentless and unforgiving toward those who don’t fit in and Tara’s fate was no different.

Then in the darkness of her life came Willow. From that first day at senior high when the redhead greeted her enthusiastically, to the days and months and years when they were each other’s confidante, Willow was the spark that banished her loneliness and insecurity.

It would have been so easy. To naturally progress into a relationship. The kiss at Prom, and the subsequent discussions proved that there was an attraction. At times, it was more than just an attraction; it was as if every second she had with Willow was filled with a breath-taking intensity that enveloped and overwhelmed her. There was a time when she could no more imagine life without Willow than without food or air.

I want to tell you so much. But I can’t.

With a heavy heart she took out a well-thumbed letter from her pocket. It was on heavy paper and in a female hand. Aunt Hallie had written to her, on her 18th birthday, and she had read it so many times she could memorize it clearly.

[blockquote]
My Dear Tara,

Reaching eighteen is an important date for any young person. For you, it means that you come into your legacy.

From the moment I saw you I knew you were your mother’s daughter. You have her eyes and also her power. The women in our family are special, Tara, I am sure you would have had feelings and premonitions that can only be described as ‘not in the mainstream.’ The specialness manifests in disparate forms, which is why I cannot tell you what exactly you should be expecting from your legacy.

You will need to take the ring I gave you when I last visited and seek out the advice of one of the wise sisters. When the time comes, take the train ticket enclosed and follow the instructions there. As for when the right time is, again I cannot tell you, but rest assured you will know.

One last point. You must tell no one about this, until you have been told that you may. The legacy is sacred, you must guard it well. Furthermore you must tell no one when you embark on your journey, not where you are going, not the purpose. It is imperative.

My apologies that I have given you news that will come as a shock to you. Our family’s legacy is a powerful thing, you will know the reason for the secrecy and obscurity when you learn more.

Until then, I remain
Your most loving aunt,
Halfrek
[/blockquote]

The grey concrete of the inner city gradually faded to the greens and browns of the countryside. No one came into her compartment, not even the conductor to check her ticket. With the sway of the train and the steady hum of the engine, soon she was asleep.

She was woken up by an announcement that they were reaching their destination soon. She stretched her stiff limbs and shook her head to clear her mind. In under 20 minutes she was disembarking, again trying to lower her suitcase from the train to the ground without breaking it.

She saw the noisy children a short distance ahead of her and wondered why she didn’t come across them on the train. Since there was nowhere else to go, she followed in their direction and found herself at a bus stop. Without a word the bus driver loaded her baggage into the bus and motioned for her to get in.

the children pushed against each other in their haste to exit the bus. Tara took her time but when she stepped out and saw the scene in front of her, she couldn’t help but gasp in surprise. It was nothing she had seen before.

The children had again disappeared. That was when she spotted a stern, middle-aged lady in a black dress and flowing black robes. Her lips were pursed in a tight line and her hands firmly clasped in front of her. There was a welcoming twinkle in her eyes though as she allowed Tara to come up to her.

“You must be Tara Maclay. I’m Minerva McGonagall. Welcome to Hogwarts.”

You are evil Evil I say

In fact you're the evilest kitten that ever lived in all of evil town.

That was a funny update and I suppose it's better than nothing

Now if you'll excuse me I'm going to go sit in a corner and sulk

[Artemis]

I'm sorry if this comes across as harsh, but I hope you'll take it as constructive criticism.

If you really wanted to surprise people, you shouldn't have foreshadowed this so heavily.

I mean, c'mon, did anyone not see this coming four or five chapters ago?

[tarawhipped]

Watty, watty, watty...how can I say this clearly...hmmm...

YOU SUCK!

I fell for it! Fuck! I was reading merrily along, thinking: oh wow, I don't remember this part...Watty must have written an interludey kind of thing. Yay Watty! But...but...then...

YOU SUCK!

I feel so cheap.

-Cam

p.s. YOU SUCK!!!

[willowspiritus]

That was very funny!

It is kinda sad but i want to see what happens to Tara at Hogwarts. Can someone look into that?

[tarebear]

hey watty! i was surprised to see your name in the update thread to find that lamplight has finally been updated...

I mean, c'mon, did anyone not see this coming four or five chapters ago?

i'm with chris on this... it was too obvious that you were as subtle as this pink elephant

really funny "update" watty... seriously though, i'm glad to hear that you have plans on continuing with this story coz for me this is one of the best ongoing fics up here.

[Emms]

When I saw Lamplight back on the first page I was so excited that I nearly fell out of my chair...but then....treachery. treachery, I say! no fair............but it was kinda funny.

[Willowtree252]

ok i fell for that ha ha I am glad that both of you are updating these storys it is sad for me when wonderful storys sit unfinished I sit and wonder what could have been Now I dont have to thanks

[justin]

It is kinda sad but i want to see what happens to Tara at Hogwarts. Can someone look into that?

If you want a story about Tara at Hogwarts (though as a teacher, rather than a student) then there's always Harry Potter and the Return of the Witch by Magrat (N.B. it's not finished)

[Foomatic]

You, my friend, are a genius.

“Sorry, miss,” a boy in a mess of red hair apologized before running to catch up with the other children, all of whom had red hair too. Except one boy with dark hair.

That line aroused my suspicions. And being in the train station. Ha! Great stuff, and awesome April Fool's Joke.

[caz]

So unfair watty - I was really looking forward to this!

So, are we gonna get an update soon - please!

Caz

[Auburn]

I ruined the joke because I have a habbit of reading people's feedback first! It would have had me sulking though I probably should be offended that you said this one's for me considering it was a joke update but incredibly witty of you nonetheless.

Thank you, Watson. You evil minx

[WillowRulez]

Unfortunately I clicked page 6 first and read a little feedback so I was warned. Hehe, still really funny! Cant wait for the real deal though
