There are people who are only too willing to tell you what is wrong with a story because it doesn't go in the direction THEY would have taken it and it doesn't cover the things they think is important..
And there's never really any easy way to answer their issues. Because, if they have such clear ideas of what YOUR story should say... why aren't they writing their own story?
Got one of those kinds of reviews today, already, to my "Lady of A" story. One of my perpetual "Problem Reviewers" (yes, I have one of those...) has decided that part two of this story just ruined the whole thing and they no longer like any part of the story... because I was in a hurry to shove Dawn off to Seacover without a whole lot of protest from Willow and Co. (even though I warned everyone right up front at the beginning of that part that I was going to do it...) and why didn't Joyce come running to Buffy's rescue?
Such is life. That isn't the story I'm telling... and I have no plans to change things around...
