What a tender, sweet, and terribly sad ending to Spike's visit, and poor Buffy, leaving the one thing that she knew would bring her some comfort in his car. I am really enjoying this series and am looking forward to the next story in it.  |
| thanks - working on it. |
| |
| BuffyRat | Ten | 07/21/2006 11:51 pm |
| Not gonna cry... oh, hell, I know it has to happen, but it tugs all my heartstrings anyway. And we al know that Spike just wanted the sheets. A fabulous story and I look forward to the next part. Thanks for sharing. |
| Thanks for reading - more soon. |
| |
| vladt | Ten | 07/20/2006 05:56 pm |
| very good read and a very sad read. thank you. |
| Glad you liked it. Thanks |

| MarzBar | Ten | 07/20/2006 10:19 am |
| Sniffle, snort, sob. I'm waiting for Spike's return. |
| Hee! So's Buffy. I'm working on it. |
| |
| Lou | Ten | 07/20/2006 03:00 am |
| I suppose they'll get used to the separations - like being married to a sailor. |
| Well, I'm hoping they won't have to. Working on that now. |
| |
| Yzba | Ten | 07/20/2006 12:05 am |
| Great job, I just love your stories, and this serie is amazing, looking forward to the sequel.!!! |
| Thanks - working on it. |
| |
| jl1980 | Ten | 07/19/2006 10:09 pm |
| that was heart-rending, so sad and beautiful...i'm breathless and sobbing and cant wait for the next installment in this wonderful fic |
| Well, he has to be gone long enough to make it a really happy reunion, you know... |
| |
| golddrake | Ten | 07/19/2006 09:10 pm |
| great story, very sad. |
| Thanks |
| |
| Karyn | Ten | 07/19/2006 06:08 pm |
| great ending! *sigh* so sad! *sniff* can't wait until the next story *bursts into tears and reaches for the tissues* |
| LOL 1 3/4 chapters of the next one done so far. |
| |
| kim | Ten | 07/19/2006 05:34 pm |
*sniff* I can't wait for him to come back, either!
Beautiful ending, even with the sadness. |
| thank you |
| |
| Emilee | Ten | 07/19/2006 03:32 pm |
| Oh that is soo sad. I'm mad at him for leaving. I understand his logic, but I don't agree with it. Will the next installment in the series have a happy ending?? |
| Probably - maybe - we'll see what the muse wants to do... |
| |
| Robyn | Nine | 07/29/2006 05:15 am |
| As hard as it was I like that Buffy pointed out some hard truths about her life and what it means for a relationship to her mom. |
| Yep, Joyce needed to hear that Buffy's life was even less "normal" than she wanted to think. thanks for reading. |
| |
| vladt | Nine | 07/20/2006 05:37 pm |
| sweet read, thank you. |
|
| |
| Rose | Nine | 07/19/2006 12:26 pm |
| Great chapter! Can't wait for the next update. |
| thanks. Already up. |
| |
| Lou | Nine | 07/19/2006 05:24 am |
| Lucky lucky girl... sigh! |
|
| |
| Verda | Nine | 07/19/2006 01:43 am |
| How sweet, their first date! Hope you tell us in the next chapter how Spike looked. Liked the conversation that Joyce had with Buffy and dating and Buffy's right about humans not being enough for her. Great chapter, thanks for the read. |
| How Spike looked - gorgeous! Could there be any question? LOL Thanks for reading. |
| |
| kim | Nine | 07/19/2006 01:38 am |
It was as well as they could hope for...that was a pretty mature conversation, actually.
As for the rest...awwwwwwwww! |
|
| |
| MarzBar | Nine | 07/19/2006 01:29 am |
| Is something going to happen to keep Spike in town this time? More story please. |
| Not this time... |
| |
| pretty_in_fangs | Nine | 07/18/2006 11:01 pm |
a brief argument over whether Spike was going to risk immolation by holding the car door open for Buffy
Nice touch. (: |
| thanks |
| |
| golddrake | Nine | 07/18/2006 10:31 pm |
| great chapter |
| thanks |
| |
| jl1980 | Nine | 07/18/2006 09:39 pm |
| awww...i love her date preparations and joyce's *talk* with her...very sweet and genuine and touching...love the way spike is with joyce, a bit uncertain, but you can see the seeds of a bond forming there...excellent update |
| Thank you - I hope the relationships are developing in a believable time frame. |
| |
| Karyn | Nine | 07/18/2006 09:35 pm |
| awesome update! hee! i loved Buffy and Joyce's convo, lmao!! |
| LOL Can you imagine having that sort of convo with your mother - at that age? |
| |
| Robyn | Eight | 07/29/2006 05:07 am |
| I like that Giles has realized that things are not quite as black and white as the council has taught. |
| He's getting there. Still has a way to go, though. |
| |
| Lou | Eight | 07/17/2006 02:21 pm |
| I think Spike's going to have to do something drastic. |
| If he wants to be allowed to hang around, he will. |
| |
| Verda | Eight | 07/16/2006 10:27 pm |
| It does suck being the slayer. Maybe Buffy will corrupt the new slayer, that sounds fun. What is Giles going to do? maybe teach at SunnyU? Really enjoying this story. |
| Buffy? Corrupt Faith? LOL Don't know what Giles is going to do -let's hope he has a job by the next story in the series. Thanks for reading. |
| |
| BuffyRat | Eight | 07/14/2006 11:51 pm |
| So, Spike is working on self control. I see why that may take him a while. A lovely heart to heart between him and Joyce, btw. And Giles and Buffy and their understanding. Also lovely. Great chapter. Looking forward to more so that we can look forward to his next visit. Loved it. |
| He's working on it - but, as he said, it's a wip. lol |
| |
| jl1980 | Eight | 07/14/2006 08:10 pm |
| hmph...i liked her idea until giles shot it down *sigh*...she could just quit and be with spike...i wish he didn't have to keep leaving...enjoyed his conversation with joyce...very good chapter |
| Thanks! |
| |
| vladt | Eight | 07/14/2006 08:01 pm |
| very good read. love the joyce_spike conversation. thanks for the update. |
| thanks for reading |
| |
| cee | Eight | 07/14/2006 06:55 pm |
| glad that your writer's block has apparently flown the coop! |
| so it seems |
| |
| Karyn | Eight | 07/14/2006 06:22 pm |
| great update! a bit of understanding and 'sorta' acceptance all around..lol |
| yep! Thanks |
| |
| kim | Eight | 07/14/2006 04:09 pm |
Yep, that's life.
I think it's respectful to give Spike the time to wean himself away from the old way of thinking. He's very honest in knowing what it would do to his psyche to upheave everything he's been for so long all at once. It's amazing that he weathered the sudden change of being chipped as well as he did, originally. |
| well, he's pretty adaptable and resourceful, so I think he'll come up with something. Good point about surviving the chip as well as he did. I imagine a lot of vamps wouldn't have. |
| |
| golddrake | Eight | 07/14/2006 03:20 pm |
| great chapter |
| thanks |
| |
| Robyn | seven | 07/29/2006 04:54 am |
| I love the complexities that you show in Buffy and Spike’s relationship, most importantly the affect it has on Joyce and her reaction to the different aspects of it. |
| thanks - I like to think there is more to them than fighting and f_____ |
| |
| Verda | seven | 07/16/2006 09:52 pm |
| So there is something going on in that gorgeous head of his. Can't help but worry about the Council and what the new slayer is going to do to Buffy's mate. The suspence is starting to build, good job! Thanks for the read. |
| There's always something going on. lol |
| |
| BuffyRat | seven | 07/13/2006 11:51 pm |
| Love how the fact that everyone knows he's leaving is hanging so heavily around everything that they do. It really makes all of the interactions so interesting. And Spike's comment about someday... well, I can't wait for more on that. Glad to see your muse is up and about again. Please, update soon! |
| Thanks - yes, the muse seems to have made a comeback for the time being. So more chapters soon, I hope. |
| |
| vladt | seven | 07/13/2006 08:22 pm |
| spike must be the only vampire with chronic foot in mouth disease. thanks for the fine read. |
| LOL - yeah, it's a wonder he had time to bite anybody,isn't it? |
| |
| Lou | seven | 07/13/2006 07:08 am |
| Nice interlude. |
| Thanks |
| |
| kim | seven | 07/13/2006 04:53 am |
| Whoops, Spike put his foot in it again. |
| yep, he did! |
| |
| MarzBar | seven | 07/13/2006 12:57 am |
| Hmmm. What conversation does Joyce wish to have with Spike now? More story please. |
| Hee! I believe she may want to discuss his attitude - |
| |
| jl1980 | seven | 07/12/2006 11:27 pm |
| poor spike...i know he's trying to do what's right and joyce and buffy aren't making it easy...so he should take the easy way out, dontcha think? just stay? yeah...that would work ;) great update, by the way |
| LOL yeah, that would work - but then I wouldn't have a fourth book in the series! LOL Thanks for continuing to follow. |
| |
| golddrake | seven | 07/12/2006 08:31 pm |
| great chapter |
| Thanks |
| |
| kimbclar | seven | 07/12/2006 08:24 pm |
| I almost cried. I don't want Spike to leave. Stupid vampire. |
| Ah, but it's Spike. He always comes back! LOL |
| |
| Karyn | seven | 07/12/2006 07:41 pm |
| awwww poor buffy, *sniff*, so sad that they have to be appart again *big sigh* Excellent Chapter!! |
| yeah, but I already know what I'm going to do in the next story - so it's all good. lol |
| |
| Verda | Six | 07/16/2006 09:34 pm |
| He know's something that he's not telling her, about their future, wonder what it is. Another good chapter. Thanks again for the read. |
|
| |
| BuffyRat | Six | 07/04/2006 10:57 pm |
| He's working on something. And she loves him. Time and trials to come, for sure, but they are so amazing together. Can't wait for more. Hope your muse is sparked. |
| My muse is sitting on his ass pouting - sigh. |
| |
| Robyn | Six | 07/03/2006 06:05 pm |
| I loved Spike's reaction when Buffy said that she loved him, so sweet and so perfectly him. I love the sweetness and tenderness that they have towards each other. Thanks for the update. |
| Thanks - one of the advantages of having no one except Joyce (and now Giles) know about them. No defesiveness. |
| |
| vladt | Six | 07/03/2006 02:02 pm |
| excellent read, thanks. |
|
| |
| golddrake | Six | 07/02/2006 04:59 pm |
| great chapter |
| Thanks |
| |
| jl1980 | Six | 07/02/2006 02:52 pm |
| wow that was hot...and very sweet...wonder what his plan is to "make himself worthy"...excellent chapter, i very much enjoyed it and can't wait for more |
| Thanks - more is slow in coming, but I'm working on it. |
| |
| Karyn | Six | 07/02/2006 12:25 pm |
| loved it!!! squeee!! great update! |
| Thanks! |

| Moi? |
| |
| Caro Mio | Six | 07/02/2006 08:44 am |
Awwwww...working on something, eh? Hmmm...thinking of the Gem of Amara, maybe? He could do everything with her but make the kids, then.
So sweet - breakfast and dinner bookmarking a whole day of lovemaking...that's a pretty pleasant time away. Not a school day, hmm? |
| Working on a way to stay in her life -who knows what he'll come up with? |
| |
| Verda | Five | 07/16/2006 09:17 pm |
| Won't he know if there's anything wrong through the claim? Mmmmmm, Spuffy goodness all around. Good chapter, thanks for the read. |
My claims tend to vary considerably from story to story, depending on what I need them to be; but in this case, yes, he would know if she was in danger, but not until it was too late for him to get there. Better he gets a warning that things are getting hairy, so he can come back quickly to help out.
Thanks for reading! |
| |
| vladt | Five | 07/03/2006 01:40 pm |
| sweet read, thanks. |
| thanks |
| |
| gotkona | Five | 07/02/2006 10:42 am |
| wonderful. I see 6 is posted so to that soon. |
| Take your time - that's all there is for rightnow. |

| Niamh | Five | 06/30/2006 01:45 pm |
“Yeah. That. If that happens, I’m not saying I wouldn’t move on eventually. I don’t think I know how to be alone,” he admitted sheepishly. “But I would still be yours, love. Be assured of that. I expect to carry that to hell with me.”
Doesn't that sum him up wonderfully? And it so is something I could hear him saying to her. He wasn't ever going to get over it and forget her. He's just not made that way
|
| thank you - I'm glad it resonated with you. (And I love your thoughtful reviews, BTW) I felt it summed him up - always Love's Bitch, but too loving to be alone forever. And honest enough to admit it. |
| |
| Robyn | Five | 06/29/2006 11:38 pm |
| So very hot and so very sweet and I love that Buffy knows that Spike will always be there for her. |
| Thank you - yes, it's nice to have her believe him, isn't it? |
| |
| golddrake | Five | 06/27/2006 08:21 pm |
| great chapter. |
| thanks |
| |
| Verda | Four | 07/16/2006 08:41 pm |
| Does that mean there was a human eye following them? Travers no doubt. Hope he can't stay away this time. Very good chapter, thanks for the read, looks like I might have to read the other books as well. |
| Thanks for reading - please watch the warnings on the first two in the series - they aren't fluffy! |
| |
| Niamh | Four | 06/30/2006 01:37 pm |
“As long as I know you love me, as long as I know you will come back when I need you, you haven’t really left me. You’re just…not here. I can live with that.”
This is so sad. And he's right that its no way for a girl to live. Even if she wants it. They should be able to find a way to be together. |
| Ah well, he may be working on that - but he's not going to tell her until he knows he can make it work. |
| |
| vladt | Four | 06/24/2006 03:32 pm |
| excellent read. giles is an idiot. your joyce is superb. thanks for the great read. |
| Thank you. Yeah, Giles needs to get over himself, doesn't he? |
| |
| Robyn | Four | 06/24/2006 06:06 am |
| I loved Joyce slapping Giles and putting him in his place. It's time he faced some hard truths that he has been ignoring. I love the connection between Spike and Buffy and her telling him that as long as she knows that he'll be there for her when she really needs him that she doesn't feel that he has left her. I loved how the biggest insecurities of both Spike and Buffy were addressed here. Spike's in his thoughts about Buffy loving him but not like he loves her and Buffy's with her comment about Giles leaving her. Thanks for the update, I really loved it. |
| Wow! Thanks for the indepth review. I hope you continue to like it. Only a few chapters to go in this series entry. |
| |
| Dihcar | Four | 06/24/2006 04:32 am |
Wow, your giles is an arrogant prick, thinken he can take Spike out. I don't care how bad ripper was, he was never a match for the slayer of slayers, magick can be counterd.
seeya |
| Well, at the time he would have done it, Spike was crippled, so I guess he figured he had a shot at it. Thanks for reading. |
| |
| BuffyRat | Four | 06/24/2006 12:52 am |
| Amazing chapter. So much going on and Giles and Spike facing off. And though Spike may be going away again, it is clear that one of these days, he may not leave again. Loved it and hope your muse kicks into gear. |
| One of these days - surely.Thanks so much! |
| |
| jl1980 | Four | 06/23/2006 06:30 pm |
| lol...that's great...very sweet and romantic and dramatic, but with some humorous bits too...i enjoyed this update, loved the way joyce was with giles...very well done chpter |
| Thanks for the detailed comments - always nice to know what works. |
| |
| kim | Four | 06/23/2006 05:00 pm |
And there off! Hormones flying....
Giles was a right bastard tonight. |
| Yeah - he's not covering himself with glory here, is he? |
| |
| Lou | Four | 06/23/2006 03:34 pm |
| I just know there's going to be some spontaneous combustion coming up! |
| Ya think? LOL |
| |
| Pam S | Four | 06/23/2006 02:41 pm |
| Enjoying the story. |
| Thanks. I'm glad you are enjoying it. |
| |
| pretty_in_fangs | Four | 06/23/2006 01:54 pm |
You tell him, girls!
Giles, always jumping to conclusions. |
| LOL |
| |
| kimbclar | Four | 06/23/2006 12:54 pm |
I still say "Stupid Vampire!" But as you say, he's getting smarter. I'm waiting to see when that is.
Love the chapter! |
| LOL - well, it's Spike. It might take him a while... |
| |
| maryperk | Four | 06/23/2006 11:51 am |
| Great chapter. |
| thanks |
| |
| SciFi_GK | Four | 06/23/2006 11:31 am |
Great update. I'm loving this Buffy...wounded, still isolated, yet not so hard that she can't love again. It's angsty, but in the best way. Can't wait for Spike's "I'm here til I dust" attitude to kick in (were you waiting until he stuck around in the series? Whatever, can't wait.).
More please. :-) |
were you waiting until he stuck around in the series?
Yeah, that was kind of my long-range plan. We'll see if he can stay away that long... |
| |
| Karyn | Four | 06/23/2006 10:51 am |
| awesome update Patti! hee! Yeah she's doing an awesome job resisting isn't she? lmao!! |
Well, it's the thought that counts... |
| |
| golddrake | Four | 06/23/2006 10:39 am |
| great chapter |
| thanks |
| |
| gotkona | Four | 06/23/2006 10:10 am |
| Well this was a fantastic chapter so I hope the reviews will help you with the rest of your writing. |
| I'm not sure the muse pays much attention to reviews, but we can hope... |
| |
| spikeskat | Four | 06/23/2006 09:50 am |
| Ok, I'm just shocked by Giles arrogance and holier-than-thou countenance - well, not really. And, the double standard he seems to exempt himself from. Yay for Spike pointing that out. And another yay for Joyce allowing her daughter a few moments with Spike (which I hope turn into a lot more than a few moments... I'm trusting you here. LOL.) *prods your muse right along with you* |
| LOL - I suspect they might drag it out a bit.... |
| |
| Verda | Three | 07/16/2006 08:14 pm |
| Guess bitings not the same to a vamp as "gonna do everything else if I want" kinda thing. Has Giles got a surprise waiting for him. Good chapter, thanks for the read. |
| Giles is going to have his eyes opened a bit more.And, he has to deal with Joyce, who's not happy... |
| |
| gotkona | Three | 07/02/2006 10:39 am |
| So glad I read the next chapter cause I need more now. |
| More there is! |
| |
| Niamh | Three | 06/30/2006 01:27 pm |
LOL. . . "after you, Scarlett" Funny as hell and sometimes very accurately Buffy.
|
| thank you, thank you. *bows* |
| |
| wall_flower | Three | 06/24/2006 04:32 pm |
| Love it xx |
| Thanks! |
| |
| vladt | Three | 06/24/2006 12:59 am |
| wonderful update. no clue which of them is more confused. love the tale. thanks for the fine read. |
| Thanks for commenting. |
| |
| Tina | Three | 06/22/2006 12:30 pm |
| Oooh, I love your work. I can't wait until the two of them are truly together. Don't know if I can wait much longer, as I like this version of the two of them. |
| Hee! I'm glad you like my Spike and Buffy, but it could be a while before life will allow them to be together full time.... |
| |
| Robyn | Three | 06/21/2006 08:54 am |
| I love the sweet sadness of this. Spike so certain that he has to leave again and neither one of them wanting to be apart. I love how she told him what they were going to do inside, including holding hands. Thanks for the update, I always look forward to them. |
| Thanks - my Buffy is much more willing to be public about her feelings than canon-Buffy, even if it is just in front of Giles and her mother at this point. |
| |
| BuffyRat | Three | 06/20/2006 11:08 pm |
| And so they finally meet again. Heartwrenching perhaps, but still better to feel the pain than to think even for a minute he couldn't be bothered by seeing her. Love them together. Great chapter. |
| Yeah, he was trying to spare her, but Slayers are made of tougher stuff than he thinks they are. |
| |
| jl1980 | Three | 06/20/2006 08:28 pm |
| i love the last line..and buffy's line about her plural "boyfriends"...very sweet and touching...and why is he so sure he's gonna have to go? he needs to stay!! excellent chapter |
| Hee! He's still trying to noble and "do the right thing". He'll get over it. LOL |
| |
| Pin1 | Three | 06/20/2006 08:03 pm |
| Great chapter. I'm hoping that ultimately it will just be too difficult for him to leave her. |
| It's bound to eventually, but maybe not this time... |
| |
| spikeskat | Three | 06/20/2006 06:36 pm |
| Already my heart is breaking for these two. Both wanting so much to be together, but Spike trying to be "noble" and do the right thing. Eagerly awaiting Joyce's dressing down. *grin* I can see it now... arms akimbo, giving the watcher her sternest "mom" look. |
| Perhaps even her sternest right cross...*G* |
| |
| kim | Three | 06/20/2006 06:06 pm |
Spike is well and truly buggered, LOL....the longer he stays, the harder it's going to be to put his feet out that door.
And Buffy still dusted Kralik. Good thing she didn't miss, though Spike didn't really need the help. It was only a matter of time, anyway.
What the hell was Joyce doing outside the barrier? She's really got to think first. |
|
| |
| golddrake | Three | 06/20/2006 05:45 pm |
| great chapter |
| thank you |
| |
| redwulf50 | Three | 06/20/2006 05:39 pm |
lmao, poor stupid slayer whipped spike  |
| Hey, he gets his jollies! |
| |
| maryperk | Three | 06/20/2006 05:00 pm |
| Awesome chapter. Glad the insane vamp is dead. |
| thanks |
| |
| pretty_in_fangs | Three | 06/20/2006 04:17 pm |
| Oh, now this discussion should be fun. |
| Well, for some of them, maybe... |
| |
| kimbclar | Three | 06/20/2006 03:50 pm |
| Still fabulous! The stupid vampire needs to get through his thick head that he needs to say. Stupid vampire! |
| LOL He's getting smarter... |
| |
| Karyn | Three | 06/20/2006 03:49 pm |
| That was an awesome chapter! Loved it lots!! Poor Buffy! *sniff* |
| thanks! |
| |
| Verda | Two | 07/16/2006 07:33 pm |
| Come on. Giles is from a family of watchers can't believe that he didn't know. I guess he had no idea that they had a relationship. Good for Spike, now to fight Kralik and the watchers. Suspenseful chapter. |
| thanks - yes, Kralik must be dealt with. |
| |
| gotkona | Two | 07/02/2006 10:37 am |
| just catching up. can't wait to read 3. |
|
| |
| Niamh | Two | 06/30/2006 01:20 pm |
| And despite his anger, Spike leaves Giles alone. So obviously very different from another soul-free vampire. . . |
| Hee! Already he's afraid of the wrath of Buffy. |
| |
| Robyn | Two | 06/19/2006 03:10 am |
| I am so glad that Spike got through to Giles, he can be very persuasive. I have a funny feeling that Giles isn’t as in the clear as he might think and that things won’t go as smoothly either. Thanks for the great chapter. |
| Thanks for reading. |
| |
| BuffyRat | Two | 06/19/2006 01:27 am |
| Well, Spike intends to save the day, wonder if that will go as planned. Love the questioning Giles is doing about everything right now. Great chapter. Please, update soon! |

| What a dense Giles -- and such a cool Spike! So decisive. I like it. |
| Thank you. |

| Thanks |

| Go Spike! Love that he was the one ot open Giles' eyes to the council. |
| Welcome to the real world, Giles...thanks for reading. |

| awesome chapter!! loved the confrontation, can't wait to see what Spike does to the council! |
| thanks! |

| Ok, it's official! Giles is sooo on my poo poo list. Grrrr. Here's hoping that Joyce lays into him like I want to. For such an intelligent man, he sure is rather naive where the Council is concerned. And yay! for Spike swooping in to the rescue. ^_^and why he was abandoning the idea...That would be because Spike showed him the error of his ways. *grin* |
| *grin* Yep, had a lot to do with it. Joyce has some vengeance in store for him - trust me. |

| I'm thinking it's not going to be that easy, unless this is to be a really short segment. |
| It's never that easy, is it? lol |

| Well, at least Giles isn't a complete idiot. But I suspect he'll tell Buffy about Spike, and then she'll end up searching him out. (: |
| Not completely. |

| Awesome chappy. Silly Giles thinking that his welcome at the Summers' residence is going to be joyful. |

| i'm glad giles listened to him -- i always liked giles, but sometimes he was a jerk...so glad he's doing the smart thing here, and can't wait to see what happens when spike sees buffy again |
| Nothing like have a master vampire angry at you to clear your thinking... |

| Haven't read the prequel's, reading as a stand alone. Never understood the need for such a barbaric test if she had survived for more than two years already. Very interesting storyline. Thanks for the read, can't wait to get caught up. |
| I hope you continue to like it - it's not meant to be a stand-alone, but part of a series, so I hope it makes sense to you. |

| Oh dear. . . I thought this ritual was bizarre anyway, and I completely concur with Joyce. Giles should have been held more responsible for allowing it |
| Yeah, they pretty much gave him a pass because he backed off at the last second, but... |
| |

| I love Spike’s concern for Buffy and him warning Joyce. I don’t really care for him not wanting Buffy to know that he is back, but I can understand it. And I am so happy that the series is back. |
| I'm glad you're glad. |
| |

| What a really good idea to prompt Spike's return. Course he would need to save her from the evil council... so fast becomming gray. Loved it. |
| thanks! |

| Let Joyce kill Giles. Please please please. |

| Hooray! He's back and there's more! I'm loving the new start- definately be looking out for this fic :]] |
| He's back - for a while, anyway. Thanks for the review; I hope you continue to enjoy it! |
| |
| pretty_in_fangs | One | 06/17/2006 05:13 pm |
| Aw. I knew he couldn't abandon her for long. |
| Nah - he's got no will power. lol |

| Yummy to see this up. I reread the others so it was extra good! |
| Thank you, I hope you continue to like it. |

| Ok, I can only pray that Giles is oblivious as to Buffy's deteriorating condition because she's yet to mention anything out of the ordinary that's been happening to her, and that it's a secret team from the Watcher's Council that's doing this to his Slayer. Especially since Giles knew what happened to Buffy last year. I think that would count as passing any rite of passage with the Council. (If not, I'm going to be really peeved at Giles. *grumble*) Glad to see Spike back, even if he's exhibiting that Angel-type attitude of "what's best for Buffy." Maybe Buffy will be able to tell him what for... (because we all know she's gonna find out *wink*) here's hoping anyway. *grin* |
You'll see how oblivious he is....not! LOL
Yeah, I have to watch out when I'm writing early season Spuffy that Spike doesn't get as overbearing and protective as Angel. But, since it's Spike, you know his plans never work out anyway. LOL |

| grr..i hate giles! but spike is gonna win joyce over yet,isn't he? excellent start, can't wait for more |
| I'm sure he will - Joyce likes Spike and he knows just how to flatter her. |
