Great story. I look forward to the sequel; curious to see how this changes the dynamic of Spike and Buffy's relationship.
 
AthenewolfePart Eight06/06/2006 02:05 pm
Lovely lovely story! I really enjoyed book one!

Excellent read. Every word was delectable.

Have you already released book two or are you still in the process of writing it? If it's already posted, I can't seem to find it anywhere.
 
Joyful DayzPart Eight05/30/2006 10:46 pm
I love this series again! (I read it over at VK) Thanks for bringing it over. It is so intriguing to me to think of Spike as the vamp Buffy had to fight on her birthday. I love your take on it.
 
vladtPart Eight05/29/2006 11:13 pm
wonderful read, thank you. looking forward to book II.

delusional_harmPart Eight05/29/2006 03:06 pm
It was a great fic. Thanks for writing it. I'll be waiting for the other book
 
jl1980Part Eight05/29/2006 12:35 am
wow...that last chapter was so very poignant, powerful...i thoroughly enjoyed the whole story, but the last chapter just nearly broke my heart...very beautifully done and can't wait for the sequel
 
ShannaPart Eight05/28/2006 09:24 pm
Yes, yes, yes!!!....er....I mean I loved it and look forward to the sequel. Thanks so much for a great read.
 
LouPart Eight05/28/2006 05:41 pm
Your rewrite has been well worth the effort. I loved it before but has much more depth to it now. A fab read.
 
AzelmaPart Eight05/28/2006 09:53 am
I just read this whole thing, and it's completely amazing. I love all your stories - you have such a way with words and Buffy and Spike's characterizations. Good job! I'll be eagerly awaiting the next part!
 
KarynPart Eight05/28/2006 09:30 am
*weeps* oh my, my chest was tight the whole ending scene ... wonderful!! somehow i dont think too many of them bought the cover story...rofl, oh well! *g*
 
redwulf50Part Eight05/28/2006 04:02 am
LOL still a great read
 
kimPart Eight05/28/2006 02:37 am
Must have sequel!!

That was great, and she's so much better off with this encounter, than if she had clung to the doomed Angel romance. Spike opened her eyes to so much. Way to go with giving Travers whatfor.
 
RobynPart Eight05/28/2006 02:00 am
I loved this so much and I am so glad that there is more to come. I love how Buffy didn't waver in her plan and how she insisted that Spike go free. As much as she might not want Spike to leave she was right, she did need to figure out how she really felt about Angel and sort through the rest of her feelings. I am really looking forward to the next book.
 
MandythemusicianPart Eight05/28/2006 01:58 am
OH please HURRY with the sequel...I LOVED this story.

Man, the way you wrote it made them absolutely spark off of the page...um, well, computer screen...lol...It was great. I cannot wait for more...I will because I have to...but I don't want to. ;)

Thanks for a great story.
 
AthenewolfePart Seven06/06/2006 02:02 pm
contented sigh... good update!
 
vladtPart Seven05/24/2006 10:27 pm
excellent chapter. desire, sex and a buffy who's mind and heart are almost working together. thanks for the fun read.
 
KarynPart Seven05/24/2006 11:09 am
awwww, now i have tears...*sniff* wonderful chapter!! loved it!
 
RobynPart Seven05/23/2006 10:21 pm
I really love the honesty Buffy managed to have with Spike and with herself. I like that she realized that maybe she didn’t love Angel like she used to but perhaps for her it was more wanting what they used to have, and that she realized that she needed time to figure things out for herself as well as the fact that it wasn’t really fair towards Spike asking him to wait. I really enjoyed the honesty, sweetness, and tenderness displayed between Spike and Buffy in this chapter, thanks for the lovely update.
 
ShannaPart Seven05/23/2006 09:16 pm
Great chapter. Oh the angst of it all!!!
 
OnyxPart Seven05/23/2006 08:43 pm
Brilliant! This could have been on television.....maybe not Network, but HBO would have picked it up. Lovely.
 
MandythemusicianPart Seven05/23/2006 07:39 pm
Wow...ummm...just...wow...um, more please...seriously...this one is freakin' addictive...yeah, seriously, write more quickly...lol...did I mention wow?
 
jl1980Part Seven05/23/2006 06:45 pm
that was very poignant and beautiful.. i loved it... very sexy and sweet...my heart broke for spike before she admitted her feelings... great update, can't wait for more
 
kimPart Seven05/23/2006 05:45 pm
Good chapter!

Perfect mix of smut and relevant truths. And yeah, this really can't be ignored...it's forever changed things. And Buffy can realize now that the relationship she has with Angel is so incomplete. She can never have a moment like this with him...and he'll never be as open and honest with her.
 
pfeifferpackPart Seven05/23/2006 05:25 pm
This was a hot but so touching chapter. I LOVE this so much!

I have a bad feeling about what the Council wankers will do to the vampire that didn't go 10 rounds with the Slayer for their little S&M game.

Love how Buffy KNOWS Spike's feelings are real and is aware that her great 4eva love might not really still be so 4eva! Lots of hope in that alone.

exccellent chappie. I have always loved this fic and it just keeps getting better
 
AthenewolfePart Six06/06/2006 02:02 pm
good chappie I am really enjoying this story!

Wow.....

....I think I'm gonna need a moment alone.

Wow.....
 
MorriganPart Six05/21/2006 05:00 am
Whoo!  That was hot!  Great chapter.
 
sircPart Six05/20/2006 03:21 am
great chapter
 
RobynPart Six05/20/2006 01:19 am
This chapter was so hot and Miss Bitch and Mr. Sensitive Big Bad were in top form. I really enjoyed this update, thanks.
 
vladtPart Six05/19/2006 09:13 pm
excellent read, thank you
 
delusional_harmPart Six05/19/2006 01:06 pm
Excellent update. It was beautiful, enjoyed it so far. And I feel like this is gonna be my favorite fic ever after a few chapters =)
 
OnyxPart Six05/19/2006 12:36 pm
P-P-P-POW! ^__^
wow...I'm loving this.
 
Thursday NextPart Six05/19/2006 11:43 am
This may be an unpopular view, but I think I liked it better before...cruder doesn't necessarily mean hotter...it's still a fantastic story, though.
My intent wasn't to make it cruder, and that's hardly the only thing I've done to it. I've cleaned up the language considerably and attempted to strengthen the characterizations. In the process, it might have become a bit "cruder," but at the same time, their relationship is fairly crude at this point. This was/is the first time I've really written Buffy and Spike without palpable affection between them.

I understand what you're saying, though. Thanks for your input. I was prepared for some people to not like the rewrite.
 
jl1980Part Six05/19/2006 07:53 am
so did she just get her strength back there? wonderful, sexy update! loved it
 
PinPart Six05/19/2006 07:27 am
Wow....you write the most amazing passion. Wow.
 
pfeifferpackPart Six05/19/2006 07:21 am
Oh yeah......MUCH more in keeping with the rating now *G*. Off to shower now!

kimPart Six05/19/2006 06:41 am
Well, that was a unique experience...thanking her for the scream...that's just funny...
 
redwulf50Part Six05/19/2006 05:20 am
Bloody Excellent fic it is
 
AthenewolfePart Five06/06/2006 01:59 pm
good chappie !
 
LouPart Five05/13/2006 04:18 pm
Nice edge to the rewrite.
 
MarzBarPart Five05/13/2006 02:43 pm
Wow! They have come to an impasse. Does that mean they get let out soon?
 
vladtPart Five05/12/2006 02:46 pm
very good chapter. buffy's going to be just as confused as spike before long. very entertaining read, thanks
 
OnyxPart Five05/12/2006 01:59 pm
This is really, really, reallyreallyreally good!
::gives candies::
 
kimPart Five05/12/2006 02:34 am
Wow.....aren't those some interesting revelations....lol
 
RobynPart Five05/12/2006 02:29 am
I love how messed up they both are and I have to admit that much of their exchange left me laughing. I am really enjoying this story, thanks for the update.
 
akarinacjPart Five05/12/2006 01:58 am
Great chapter, and good changes from the first version so far. Please update soon.
 
CewcewPart Five05/12/2006 01:46 am
This Has Always been one of my fav. Storys. Been awhile Since I read this story, And I am so injoying rereading it.
 
AthenewolfePart Four06/06/2006 01:56 pm
I liked thier disscusion about vampries and agnelus - very nice!
 
akarinacjPart Four05/08/2006 04:28 am
I´ve read your previous version of this story and I loved it so I´m reading it again. Great chapter. Keep writting hope the ones that haven´t read this story before enjoy it very much.
 
LouPart Four05/08/2006 03:24 am
The sniping is such fun!
 
MarzBarPart Four05/08/2006 03:08 am
Buffy's so smart. She knows what he cannot possibly understand; she's lived so long as a Valley Girl that life is an open book to her. I am wondering why Spike hasn't had her for dinner yet.
 
KarynPart Four05/07/2006 08:49 pm
lol, great chapter...they're at their best while snarking...i love it!
 
kimPart Four05/07/2006 07:47 pm
Typical Buffy...trying so hard not to learn.
 
jl1980Part Four05/07/2006 07:07 pm
oh wow...and the UST gets even higher...i'm so tense just reading this, it gets better and better...need more now please!!!
 
vladtPart Four05/07/2006 06:46 pm
love the story. fascinating conversation. thanks for the fine read.
 
RobynPart Four05/07/2006 06:34 pm
I am really enjoying this story. Spike wanting almost anything rather then being bored is completely believable. And with their conversation maybe Buffy will open her eyes to some of the things she usually lives in denial about. Thanks for the great update.
 
AthenewolfePart Three06/06/2006 01:04 pm
Good update!
 
MeganPart Three05/27/2006 12:09 am
I love that snapshot moment--him falling and quite contentedly resting between her breasts.
 
jl1980Part Three05/07/2006 06:47 pm
love how spike's opening up to her without really meaning to...love the UST here...awesome awesome story and on to the next chapter now
 
GinniPart Three05/07/2006 09:45 am
I'd love to read more!
 
delusional_harmonyPart Three05/07/2006 07:45 am
Great fic. I loved it. More soon please, you got me curious.
 
btvsfreak@yahoo.comPart Three05/06/2006 02:51 pm
Wonderful start to a story. I can't wait to see where it goes!
 
RobynPart Three05/06/2006 03:12 am
I really enjoyed this chapter, and Spike's need for conversation with Buffy. Thanks for the update.
 
KarynPart Three05/05/2006 08:00 pm
awesome!!! loved it! giggles at the major UST!!!
 
MarzBarPart Three05/05/2006 07:31 pm
So far they're just babbling at cross purposes. If they would settle down (difficult for Buffy) and have a real conversation, they could call a better truce than the one they had for Acathla. More story please.
 
pfeifferpackPart Three05/05/2006 06:00 pm
I enjoyed this in the original form and am loving the brand spankin new improved model too. Thanks for dusting it off and making it shine *G*.

Kathleen
 
redwulf50Part Three05/05/2006 05:50 pm
LMAO, damn Buffy, by now Faith would have him nekkid
 
LouPart Three05/05/2006 04:40 pm
Loving revisiting this. Nice cocky Spike.
 
AthenewolfePart Two06/06/2006 01:02 pm
OHHH intriguing - me likey! I can't wait to see what happens next!
 
MeganPart Two05/26/2006 11:14 pm
You've slotted Spike into Kralik's place so seamlessly, and seriously, how did Buffy forgive Giles so easily? Especially when it became a trend to betray her? To feed her to the wolves?
 
jl1980Part Two05/07/2006 02:52 pm
wow...this should get really interesting...once she gets him on her side, she should let him eat giles...lol.. excellent chapter
 
RobynPart Two05/05/2006 04:01 am
I love that she told Giles outright that he betrayed her. I like that Spike killed Kralik so that he could take advantage, it is something I could see him doing and a great way of putting him in the house. Thanks for the great update.
 
kimPart Two05/05/2006 02:47 am
A kiss already, hmm? Interesting way to get the girl, Spike. I'm assuming he came because of all of Dru's talk?
 
SpaceLordPart Two05/05/2006 02:22 am
Well since this is a rewrite of yours I hope to see the updates coming real fast
 
MarzBarPart Two05/05/2006 02:21 am
Maybe Spike has a different idea about what will constitute a victory over a disabled Slayer than the Wankers' Council does.
 
KarynPart Two05/04/2006 10:10 pm
*squeals and shivers* it's so wrong that i loved that...lol...but i did *snickers*
 
AthenewolfePart One06/06/2006 12:59 pm
NOOOOO - I mean Okay I know that Giles betrays her and is a right bastard about it - but I can hope.. right... really good start and can't wait for more!
 
MeganPart One05/13/2006 09:04 pm
Gahhhh, that just reminds me all over again what a frog Giles was. And then there was absolutely no compensation for the fake promise to take her to the ice show. He really didn't pay dearly enough. Thank God she gains something good in your fic!!
 
jl1980Part One05/07/2006 02:43 pm
you make me both despise and feel sorry for giles, knowing what he's going to do...and you capture buffy's emotions over the loss of her powers so well..can't wait for more!
 
RobynPart One05/04/2006 05:06 am
What a great start. The Cruciamentum was one of the biggest betrayals by Giles, and I am looking forward to how you make use of it.
 
MarzBarPart One05/04/2006 12:06 am
Yuck! I always hated that Cruciamentum episode. Travers should have been dusted or whatever one does to a demon like him. Giles at least deserved some torture. More story please.
 
KarynPart One05/03/2006 06:16 pm
very nice, i think i remember this one, cant wait to read it again!
 
kimPart One05/03/2006 04:25 pm
Gah! Stupid Cruciamentum...can't quite forgive Giles for going along with that one.
 
LouPart One05/03/2006 03:17 pm
Great to see this revamp - it's an excellent tale.
