A lovely, heart-wrenching story. Enjoyed it, but I must confess I'm a sucker for a happy (or at least hopeful).

Love this chapter. It's hot and sweet and sad and poignant and ever so slightly hopeful and simply beautifully written. Achingly insightful.
Author's Response: Thank you! That means the world to me.

Title: Chapter 7-Beauty Night
A bit sad, but they really aren't going to have a perfect ending in canon, are they? It's nice to dream, but, really?? You'd said somewhere that nobody liked this one, I love that they get to be domestic, even if it is one day. More than some get, and it fits right in with them. And they bash Angel. Pretty well rounded, all around. :) Thanks for sharing.
Author's Response: I'm so glad you like this one. It's a love it or hate it story, I think. Thanks for commenting!!!

Title: Chapter 4--The Scar
"You die, and instead of helping your friends take care of little sis, he traipses off to Tibet to grieve in the most melodramatic way possible. I’d be surprised if he didn’t have a full orchestra trailing him to heighten the effect."
Nothing better than when Spike melodramatizes Angel. That may have just been a made up word... oh well. Really great chapter. Could totally stand alone.
Author's Response: Thanks so much, love!

That was so good that I now feel sad. Beautifully written.
Author's Response: Please don't be sad! Thank you for reading and commenting. Really I nothing I write is good for cheering up, but if you've never read Nautibitz's, "Don't Stop," that should do the trick.

Loved this story. The Angel thing was fascinating and hot. And this line was absolutely poetic: "If I exist to see the end of things, I’ll be sitting on this burnt out ember of a planet, watching the stars blink out with the memory of your taste on my lips. When the universe shudders and coughs to a halt the last word it hears will be your name, your ridiculous, fucking name, Buffy Summers.”
Author's Response: Thank you, I'm glad you liked it. I always like writing a Spike speech. I thought the Angel thing was hot, too.

Absolutely loved this chapter. First I loved the spot-on humor when Spike talked about Angel mourning Buffy's passing. I also loved the torn relationship they have. Brilliant!
Author's Response: Thanks so much! I always thought that episode where Angel is mourning Buffy hit about a thousand false notes. I had to make fun of it. Glad you liked it!

The ending was not that sad it felt a bit hopeful, but he should abandon the idea of the Suvolte eggs.
Author's Response: I was going for a bit of irony there. I wrote the story with the intention that it wouldn't interfere with the timeline of the original series in any way. Also that part about the sun and the cloud-the sun was lost to Spike when he became a vampire.
Thank you for your comment and sticking with the story!

Nice ending, not too "Nancy boy" for Spike. Why didn't Angel ever help?
Thank you for the story.
Author's Response: In the original series, Angel is not terribly helpful at all to Buffy's friends after season four. I think the reason behind that was the shows were on a different network. Only Willow seemed to show up on Angel, and more often than not she was used to perform a spell. I took those elements from the show and put them into my story. The child support thing was an invention of my own. I reasoned that Angel Investigations wouldn't help with that because it wasn't supernatural and would be a waste of their talents, so to speak. Glad you liked the ending. Thanks for the comment.

I love the idea that Spike was holding the demon eggs to raise money to give to Buffy and Dawn. It makes sense. That's what I'd always thought. Too bad Buffy never knew that.
Author's Response: Thank you! Even if she did know, I don't think it would have made a difference; if anything it would have made her feel worse that he was causing genocide on her behalf. I think he would've known that and wouldn't have told her. There's that really amazing scene in Double Meat Palace when he comes in and tries to talk her out of working there. That was such a real moment for me, as a viewer, and was a huge inspiration for this story.
Thanks so much for the kind words about my writing! It means the world to me.
Author's Response: Also wrote another story called "Blood Oranges," where everybody's human. Would love to hear your thoughts on that.

God, this story just gets better and better. This chapter made me shiver. Your writing is wonderful...Spike is so in character, and it's lovely to hear Buffy's inner voice and her incredible shame for wanting Spike so much.

Don't apologize for the sad ending, I think it was appropriate for the tone of the story and the tone of season 6. I liked that your ending allowed the story to wind its way back into canon...heartbreaking, since I know what is to come, but also a beautiful scene that suggested a possible different outcome for our favorite couple if something, just something, had been different or changed. I'm going to stop rambling now, but I just like to say that your story was wonderful and I hope to read more from you soon :)
Author's Response: Thanks so much! I was trying to break your heart. Not really, but that is an amazing compliment that this little thing I wrote could make you feel something. I'm working on more stuff, if the baby will cooperate, I hope to post more soon. Thanks again!

It feels so sad, but it is so well done.
Author's Response: Thank you. I just write sad stuff, I guess. I was really trying to keep in the spirit of season six, like this story could almost slip into the season and not alter a thing.
