[> Subject: Re: Spotlight Author: Gemma [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 03:11:40 01/14/04 Wed Author Host/IP: dialup-50.15.221.203.acc02-fred-lau.comindico.com.au/203.221.15.50 A little bit different to your usual writing as in it seems more rushed than usual. Really liked the Joyce/Buffy scenes and the final scene was sweet. Also liked how Cordy picked up at the last second that she was a sacrifice LOL just like Cordy to get wrapped up in her impending fame and not see the truth. Ok things I wasn't too sure on how much I liked..Buffy seeing Riley for the first time and the Faith scene. I think I may have thought it was rushed because I always thought Cordy left straight after graduation seeming as she didn't have her dad's house to live in anymore...and that I thought Xander went travelling straight away too, so I didn't give them a huge timeframe for this to happen. hugs and hope you don't hate me too much for what I've said or that I haven't hurt your feelings too badly..*runs before a huge beast is conjured to beat me up ;)* [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

As for all the events... It all starts the morning after graduation and carries over 3 days. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
