I am posting the first part of this story because I felt like it. Some sad excuse, I know. It has not been beta-read, so I will seek all opinions to perfect the work. This bunny is not even mentioned until Chapter Ten. The first part deals primarily with the film, while the second part is more original and sort of deals with the first few episodes of the first season. Once both parts are beta-read, I will place the modified story in the same location but for now, this is the basic un-edited first version... think of it as Story Version 0.1 or something. Follow the Stars, Part I -- www.five-by-five.us/words/follow.

Aly, I just read Follow the Stars, and I really liked it. Can't wait to read the sequel.
I love SG-1 crossovers, and FtS is something different than I've read for while. So, thanks for taking this Bunny!

FTS looks cool, and I am a fellow scooby-basher when it comes down to things. I am a BA shipper, so I hope that you dont bash him too much, and is he human here what was it that he wanted to talk to her about? But whatever floats your boat Aly...
Anyways, about the plot bunny, are we gonna get a backstory on how they met more specifically? I'd like that, but whatever gets the story done eventually... So, ur just kinda re-doing SGC for Buffy's place? Coool..
Okay, to the real inspi. post thingy... What about her and Daniel's time away from [shadow=red,left,300]Forever[/shadow]? Would that be something for a bond there...?

Thank you, guys! I feel much better now knowing it is not complete rubbish!
Yes, the second half of the story goes more in depth about the actual bunny. I just had to set up the story before flashing back. I know it is basically an "open-story-and-insert-character" fiction, which I hoped to avoid, but in a way, this fiction was just calling for it. I have a talent for taking a well-known story and jabbing at it from another angle.
And while the two characters have obviously bonded... this gives them the opportunity to see one another's darker sides, as well as the frustrations of being stuck thousands of lightyears from Earth and trapped with a group of people who get to see these two naturally. Buffy finally realizes what a Slayer is all about, despite the fact she's found someone at last, whilst Daniel gets to do all of the nifty things he did on the show.
Angel will likely only be in the story once more. My apologies, Goddessa, but I refuse to bash him. I know you are a staunch supporter of Buffy/Angel, so I promise I will not bash him. I think I only allowed myself one teeny comment in the first part, anyway.
Wow. I feel like there is still so much more to say, yet my mind is coming up blank. Oops.

I really hope you continue though. My computer is acting up for loading things, so if you can, can you pleaase put a lot into one chapter? But whatever you want/do is fine with me. Maybe my com will quit acting up sometime soon... Anyways, I can't wait till you get the next part to it out to read. I like your stuff. Do you have any other work? You should post it if you do.

Of course I will do that. Once my computer stops acting up, I will post the word version of the story. It is a nicely sized file, but it would make downloading a lot easier instead of scanning through many pages.
I do have other works, but they are scattered everywhere. I only started writing about a year ago. Before that, I was basically a beta-reader and an idea-go-to-person (which is why I love this site so much as I get to contribute). I will eventually archive everything in that one place.
ETA: I love this blue background... it is quite pretty!

Thank you. I got bored with that old lila/purplish color, and I started to test some new colors - and here we are! Personally I'm pretty damn proud of these new colors. I didn't change the heart backround because it kinda looks good with the colors.

I like the background too. It's pretty colors with a pretty pile of sizes and shapes. About the fic, will the Council of Watchers have anything to do with it in the long run?

will the Council of Watchers have anything to do with it in the long run? Likely not in this fiction, but perhaps if I choose to continue it along, in the future. Of course, as a scientist, both Carter and Jackson will have questions about the Slayer and Buffy, being someone who has literally been to hell and back by this point of time, will not answer them. They will have to go to another source, and that source is either Giles or Faith.

Do I see any NID problems in the future? They could cause some major problems.

Ooh, the NID. They would cause a lot of problems, wouldn't they? They have already been after Teal'c and other assorted technology. If they ever found there was a former Goa'uld amongst them, things could get tricky. Once again, that would be sequel material. But they would be a fabulous villain, especially after they villainized Makepeace. I was not very happy with that little decision... but Kinsey is "the bomb".

I hope you contiue your fic soon though-it's great. And I did like the end part to prt.15 or the last one you updated. It was angsty-yet-sweet and defeniteley into the coolness-factor.

Thank you! I hope to have the second part posted within the next two weeks. I want to get it in before vacation, which will be nice because I will have a clean slate before returning to writing.

In your fic, is Buffy okay with Hank now, or is she still al ittle wary and mad at him for basically abandoning them and stuff?
