Title: Chapter 37 ~ Confidante
So glad to see a new chapter::)) Loved the chapter; and the whole dynamic of the burgeoning commraderie between Xander and Spike. Very funny, especially the mental visual of a dancing Spike grooving to the Xan-man's tunes no less.............Now I have to wonder about what caused the explosion, if Spike's back is broken, if Dawn's okay and if Buffy's too weak to take down ol' Binney himself?.............. And the saga continues ...........I can't wait to find out::))
Author's Response: *hands to head* So many questions!
I figured groovin' to a rock band that uses bagpipes lent a little color to the mix. I'm so glad you're enjoying the story. Thanks so much for commenting. Stand by, more coming soon ...

NO, don't leave it like this!!!!
I love Spike and Xander interaction - this was very well done.
One of my favorite stories.
Author's Response: Now, you know I wouldn't do something like that unless I had a plan for a pretty quick update. Been in your shoes too many times enjoying other author's cliffhangers.
I love that you love it. And I love that you commented! Thank you!

Title: Chapter 37 ~ Confidante
As usual, this is very well done. Both dialogue and characterization are excellent. However, I have ywo questions : 1. How can a vampire's legs fall asleep when their blood doesn't circulate to begin with ? 2. Was it really necessary to cripple Spike twice in the same story ?
Author's Response: Hi Rich,
Good questions, both. 1. At first, I wrote a long answer in explanation and then retracted it, deciding that Binne is not the sharpest knife in the drawer and would have thought in those terms as a human. I'm sure the workings of a vampire physiology have no interest to him whatever. 2. What makes you think Spike IS crippled? You know he's injured, but you only have Xander's say so. Also, vampires may have all sorts of super strength and senses but they are infinitely vulnerable to all sorts of things. Their existence is really quite fragile. Thanks for the comment. I'm really glad you are enjoying the story and I love that you take the time to say so. Thanks again.

I love this story and am delighted to find an update. more please
Author's Response: Thanks so much for commenting. I lurve hearing from you guys.
I left it there? Hey! That's a cliffhanger! *hee*
Will the answer to Xander's woman problem finally "dawn" on him?
Is Buffy hot, sweet and wet and ready for Spike or did she hear the explosion too?
Is Spike up to it or is he really hurt?
What must the commandos be thinking?
Tune in next time ....

Title: Chapter 35 ~ Interrogation
I was looking for you and your story again. I didn't have internet for awhile(sob)::))..I am very happy to say that I found you!!....................... I have to tell you; I just love this story, and very much look forward to seeing the next installment in this tale........Very concerned with Buffy's increasing weakness; is she being drugged perhaps? I keep thinking about the Crucimentium (or however you spell it). Loving the interactions between Buffy and Spike...........suffice it to say ; I like everything about this story and I have since reading the very first chapter. .....Heroes and demons and villians ..oh my!!!When you finish it I will be saving it so I can read it whenever I want. good sagas are something you read over and over and this is one of them.
Author's Response: Hi kat,
Getting your review is just what the doctor ordered. Real life has kept me away from Mr. Giles. Soon you'll learn what's happening. Thank you for the wonderful review.

not sure about Giles telling all about the school, I am sure he could have come up with another believable story, he risked the police going back to the station & telling all and it getting out to the press. and just a little niggle of mine-the police nor Giles would have said gotten, its an Americanism, nor would they have said in back, they would have said at the back. Sorry for the tiny critique because its such a good story & so well written
Author's Response: Thank you for that. I didn't know my Americanisms showed that much. You all say things so much better than we do. I just answered a review that made the same comment about Giles story. Remember that above all else, Giles is an honorable man. (MY Giles is, in any case) He can hide the truth, but to blatantly lie, when faced with direct questions? It's just not in his make-up. Don't worry scaryscouse, I've got it covered. Thanks much for the comment.

Love it. You write so well. Truly a talented writer. More please.....
Loved it when Buffy says to Spike "but when am I going to get lucky" so great. Yeah, Spike step up the plate and help Buffy with her problem.
Author's Response: Hi Spuffyfan. Me too!!!
Thank you for your kind words. I love writing. I always wanted to and my friends in fanfiction have given me the courage to throw caution to the wind and give it a go. Just one thing, it was Dawn who says "when am I going to get lucky>" Buffy, bless her, is finally getting some again. *G* And you never know, Dawn may just get lucky too.

I love this story. Always happy to see a new chapter posted.
Really happy that Spike and Buffy finally had their hot moments. Laughed when Spike couldn't wait and Buffy thought she hurt him. But it really was a sweet thing to see our Spuffy couple so happy again. Cause it was breaking my heart to see Spike and Buffy so down.
Author's Response: Hi spikey,
I'm happy you are enjoying the story. I love the reading and writing of fanfic because it keeps us in touch with the characters we loved so much in the show. I always believed that Spike and Buffy belonged together.
