This was a wonderful, wonderful fic. You came up with an orginal storyline and some truly memorable characters.

The two girls were great, acting just like children but with that little hint of something extra. I wasn't entirely sure whether they were the good guys to begin with, I have heard a lot of doll horror tales over the years! ANd of course, what they did to Connor... my heart bleeds for the poor boy.
I did like how they spotted the need for Angel to try treating Connor a bit more like a kid rather than just a teenager. Their gentle rebuke that he hadn't taken him to Disneyland was very well done, sweet as well as showing the audience that they really aren't just two normal little girls.

The shape-shifter was a great idea. And I have to admit I said 'Oh s**t' when I realised he had taken on the form of Wesley. I would have loved to have seen that scene with Wes-2 and Fred filmed in real life.
"Don't you hate a tattle-tale."
Fantastic :)

All in all, a great episode. And the final shot of Connor and Angel wearing Mickey Mouse ears was just the perfect ending.

Well done!

I loved, loved, *loved* the Doppel-Wes stuff, billiant idea that was executed with perfection.

Really was wonderful stuff. Another impeccable addition to this season, which has been amazing. Every writer has really outdone themselves and I couldn't be more proud.

It really is an honor to even be associated with such a terrific group of writers. VKMax, veggie, toothy, Gemma and of course Rona; you guys just rock. :D

There are so many layers to this story - the surprise twists, the deliciously creepy opening, great action scenes, wonderful dialogue, and the very touching and warm interplay between Angel and Connor! What "The Two" did to Connor was priceless, and love the names The Two give to the women in AI. The Two were brilliantly realized characters - very surreal but very real at the same time. It's a brisk, exciting read, too - incredibly well paced and the flow of action is just perfect.

This is really a very special story, Rona! Thank you for writing it!

This was brilliant!!! Loved the girls/dolls & Wes/ shapeshifter Wes was an added extra good touch.
This ep took me on a rollercoaster of feelings from shocked to smiley tears. I really felt for Connor, not just the hilarious make-up, but the fact he's missed out on so much. That made the ending extra special.
Loved reading this Rona, you've excelled yourself
proud hugs to you

I just spent the last two days of work (yikes), reading the entire series you wonderful writers have cooked up, and I have to say that I'm very impressed.

Last night I errantly thought, "Oh new Angel Wednesday, I wonder why the gang was transported to a garden and what's going to happen to Lila?" That's how good it was, I got it confused with the real series!

Anyway, I anxiously look forward to reading what you have cooked up next, Cinderella is waiting for something? I wonder...and what did Angel do in China? It's all very fascinating and I think you're all doing a great job!
