I really want to give contructive and thoughtful feedback to these two epilogues, but tears do not a good window make. Or...y'know, maybe they do. When a mom reads a 'birth fic' there's gonna be tears, espescially one done as well and heartfelt as this one. The first one, with the storming, raging Spike, who switches from William to Spike and back again depending on who he's dealing with. I love that Joyce just stays calm and isn't ruffled at all by him. I love how Xander picked the name, and it's perfect. The second ep. Now that's absolutely perfect. That Trista is happy, and would NOT be happy "fixed" is just...amazingly well done and well thought out. Joyce has a daughter who will be a daughter forever, and a grand-daughter to help raise. Loved the whole thing, but loved these two very, very much.
