I regret that i was able to read this beautiful story only now. The plot is not really new to me but the way you wrote it makes it so different. It was very emotional and heart tugging. I could feel every heatache that Spike is feeling like it's real.
I am surprised that this is your only fiction. Why didnt you write more? I hope you would write again.
Author's Response: Happy you found my story and you liked it! Even thought this is my only Spuffy, I've written several more fanfics that can be found on my livejournal. Check it out if you're interested.

This story was so sad. I would hate to think she would be so mean and insensitive even when she doesn't have that 'just back from heaven' excuse. I still have many unanswered questions after reading this. I think there is plenty of room for a sequel that could resolve some of these questions and my sappy self would hope that it would go to a happier place in the next installment. The world is often neither fair or happy and I do respect your right to express those things too. I wondered about the whole biting thing though. She was drinking and biting in the same place - it seemed to mean more to her than just punishment or cruelty. Even Spike didn't seem to know what that was all about.

phew - dark, very very dark. i do like the dark fics now and again. and a word to your other reviewers: you DID say you were going to explore a darker side of buffy, and that you did. really well written piece. i too would have liked to have seen spike turn the tables on her, but it's your story and your vision. weird thing - i can't stand to see spike witih ANYBODY but buffy, but most of the time i hate buffy for being such a bitch. and oh wow was she a bitch here - a very dark, evil bitch. but i wonder - what did xander tell her to do? thanks for sharing this with us.
Author's Response: thanks so much for the review!
I have a tendency to go a tad evil with my characters.
What did Xander say? Well, I'm not sure. But it was probably something like..."Follow your heart."
Cause, you know...your heart may not always lead you to a happy place.

You are crazy for thinking that it should end that way.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm sorry. I know that wasn't very nice of me. But I mean whats the point of reading it if Buffy and Spike never really fall IN LOVE!?
Author's Response: Yeah, I know, and I make no apologies. Somes love sucks.

Okay found it here through your contact information at the BSC. Nope, definitely not a happy ending. {sighs sadly} Good writing though. Not my usual cup of tea as I need a little more positive in my life, but you wrote it well.
Author's Response: Thanks for sticking it out Tasha. And thanks also for persuing the story. I just can't get away from the darkness. Does that me a sociopath? Well...probably.

Well very well written story, would like to see a sequel where Spike pickes himself up and leaves her. Don't need the happy ending but I would like to see him get on with his life (unlife) and maybe even leave Sunnyhell for good, maybe a more Spike centric story of how he gets over her and moves on. Well one can always hope :)
Author's Response: Glad you liked the story. I've been pondering a sequel, but right now I'm working on a sequel to my nonslash Spander story (see my website), and other original fic. Not sure I could really give that much confidence to Spike, anyway. I'm a bit wicked, but I kinda like to see him a bit broken.

Author's Response: Thanks for reading and reviewing! It means a lot that my story touched you in some way. Spike is so emotional that I almost enjoy taking him to such a sad place. Does that make me a sociopath? ... Nah.

That was almost painful to read. Not as in 'not good', more like 'heartbreaking painful'. It's really sad that it ended like this. You made me cry for Spike. Well written. Good angst, good story. Just a bit sad to find out what Buffy's answers to Xander's questions were. Somebody needs to tell that girl she needs to grow a heart. But I guess in a way, Spike is just as much to blame for letting her do this to him. Love makes you weak sometimes. :(

Great story. Not particularly fond of the ending, but you did warn that it was dark, so I was expecting something of that nature. Very well-written, not only structurally but also emotionally. I can tell by the fact that I'd like to kick Buffy's ass right about now. LOL! Look forward to reading more of your stories.

This is a very sad story. How could you write a story where Spike would be satisfied with that type of relationship. I know that happened in season six, but in the end he could not live with it and that is why the episode Seeing Red happen. Although, I think Joss and his writers don't like anyone to be happy. However, thanks for a very heartbreaking story. It was well written and you could feel the pain Spike experienced.
Author's Response: Yeah, I beat Spike up pretty bad here. Like Dru said in "Crush" - "We can love quite well, if not wisely." I don't imagine that he would be satisfied much longer. There is only so much a man can take, after all. But unfortunately, that is where the story ended in my head, so poor Spike is left heartbroken. One of these days, I'll write a happy story about my dear vampire, but this one just couldn't work out that way.
Thanks for the review!!

OH MY FUCKING GOD. WHAT THE HELL!!!!!!!!! that stupid, cruel evil bitch i hate her. shes so mean how can she hurt him like that. i would kill her if i knew her, he deserves better. even though it was such a sad story i loved how it was writen and was very unique. thanx for writing it
Author's Response: Wow! Such a strong reaction. Overall, I have always thought of Spike as a tortured soul, long before he got his back. Actually, it's just so easy to write him sad. Spike shows every emotion he has, the moment he has it. As much as I love him (and yes, I really do), it is just so much fun to put him in miserable situations. I'm sure I'll write much more Spike.
Thanks for the feedback.
Look for another Spike-centric story of mine on slayerfanfic.com called Listening and Lies.

OK, well written and overall very good story. Just too dark for me. Maybe it's just me, but I think it's slightly out of character at this point in the series to be so much of a bitch. Buffy used Spike in the series because she was greiving and surviving, but I believe she always loved him and just fought against it. Here, she truly doesn't love him and she actually raped him that last time. It was a little too much for me. But that's mostly an aesthetic thing. I'm not too crazy about Fluffy Spuffy, but I do enjoy the loving component to their relationship. Like I said, this as just a little too dark for me
Author's Response: I appreciate the honesty. I personally like the dark stuff. You're right that I don't really explain why Buffy went to this dark place, which is a flaw. I recognized that when I reread this, but was a little tired of the story by then to rewrite it. Perhaps the sequel that I write, if I ever write one, will address the whys.
Thanks for reading all the way through, though!

Sad, but beautiful. Am I wrong in thinking (hoping) for a sequel? All these open questions about the biting Buffy's been doing seem to hint at one. I'm really keeping my fingers crossed - Spike is so demolished now!
Author's Response: I have a few thoughts for a sequel, but nothing solid yet. Maybe in a few weeks.
