Chapter Text
Well ... that's it.
Roughly two and a half years, a labor of love, and now the story is over. I will admit that the comics left a sour taste in my mouth, the few novels that explored life after the shows were even worse, and writing this has kind of helped me manage that thwarted desire to see more stories of these wonderful characters out in the world.
Did this trilogy end neatly, with everything tied in a bow? No, but that's not how Buffy and Angel's stories ever ended.
I've never been quite sure how many folks have been reading along over the months, but if you're out there, I'd love to hear from you ... good, bad, or indifferent. If I'm alive and have an internet connection, it doesn't matter if you stumble across this work decades from now, I'll still have the same accounts and the same email address, and I'll read your comments and most likely reply.
Those of you who have commented, I appreciated each and every post. To one particularly enthusiastic and communicative reader, who knows who she is, thank you most especially.
Will I ever return to tell more Buffyverse stories? Originally, I said "maybe," but now it's a yes ... in fact, six stories following Buffy and Angel's vacation and giving them some closure have now been published and are linked to this series!
As for checking in on the Anyaverse, particularly Fred and Wesley, or any of the characters besides Buffy and Angel, I suppose it depends on how much interest I sense out there ... and if I don't, I certainly hope that I left enough possibilities out there that people's imaginations can run wild.
If you're reading this, thanks for checking out my work.
