| Ewwww and how is Buffy supposed to know which vampires to dust? |
| learn the truth! lol |
| gaillee | 03/19/2006 10:25 am |
| Thanks for the best explanation of Angel I've ever seen. I've never understood the hero worship of the Angel portrayed in the series. |
Thank you...thats quite a compliment.  |
| Cewcew | 03/18/2006 05:13 pm |
| OMG! More, more, more! |
it's coming...lol  |

| Very good story. Unfortunately, a woman doesn't have any choice to be raped or not. So she can't allow herself to be raped. Rape is force, not a choice. |
But that is in your cultural beliefs...there are some cultures that say the woman is to be blamed and let it happen because she was too immodest and asked for it, thereby shaming her family. I may not believe that but unfortunaly some culture still do.

This is one of the most concise and well thought out explanation I have ever heard on the different types of vampires. It is very similar to what I have always thought, but unlike my thoughts which tend to be muddled, yours are very clear. It also clearly explains the different types of vampires that we met in Joss’s world. Harm was the perfect example of this. And your characterization of Liam-Angelus-Angel was so correct, with a big yuck when you really think about that last line. I so look forward to the updates of this story, and how sad it is that I am a bit jealous of Penny who gets to do what I have always wanted to do to the characters of BtVS.  |
| It certainly sooths the soul! |
| pfeifferpack | 03/17/2006 12:28 pm |
I think your analysis on vampiric nature in general is quite on the money. Your character assessment of Liam/Angelus/Angel is also spot on.
I have always seen the great "road to redemption" of Angel as non existant. He spent all those years after the curse doing only two things (aside from brooding and the guilt the curse ensured)he stopped killing humans for food and he avoided humans as much as possible (because he WANTED to kill them for food and sport, as shown on the show Angel). He had no desire to lift a finger to help humans and regretted the few times he did try. It was the sight of Buffy, dressed like a little girl and sucking on a LOLLIPOP that made him rush to "help"... That help consisted of stalking her, making vague warnings and watching her fight!
Okay, off my soapbox for now. You said it well in this chapter.

but I enjoy you on the soapbox!

| Wow, this is amazing! Love your stories. Penny is a great character, love her explanations. Looking forward to next chapters. Update soon, please! |
| I'll try...Penny is fun to write! |

| Some events in canon (Spike's getting a soul and his mother's turning) would be difficult to explain in this framework. Or any framework for that matter, since the show isn't self-consistent. I hope you don't worry about them too much. |
Luckily little problems like that don't exist in my AU...heehee  |
| k | 03/17/2006 08:58 am |
| wow..just wow. |
| lol ...just lol |
| sirc | 03/17/2006 07:16 am |

| thanks, as always |
| Megan | 03/17/2006 07:13 am |
| Oh my, that was the most amazing chapter. I loved it. And now you've left me sitting on the edge waiting for the meaning of that end sentence to sink in because IT IS SO RIGHT! Well done. |
| Thank you, from you that is high praise indeed! |
| Delicia | 03/17/2006 04:38 am |
| You really put a lot of valid points into this chapter! I am enjoying reading this. Penny is wonderful with her explanations of vampire and human customs. I think she is enjoying knocking Angel off the pedestal Buffy has him on, rightly so. |
| Penny is not the only one enjoying knocking Angel off his pedestal! lol |

Ah, yes...and now we get to the part of hoboAngel being enraptured with a little blonde cheerleader. From the time he left the people in the hotel to die from that demon, Angel was on the road to the gutter, finally deciding to live as a bum feeding off rats after he fed off the dying man in the diner in the '70s. He spent over 20 years like that until Whistler enticed him to help by showing him Buffy.
And there is good in Angel, if he's nurtured properly in that direction. He showed it in Season 1 of AtS with Cordy, Doyle, and Wes - the first real friends he'd ever had. He lost the point of the mission once the Shanshu Prophecy was discovered, though. Then losing Cordy as his compass - well, we all know how that ended up.
Poor Spike doesn't get to keep all his secrets here, but it's for the greater good, since they might start looking at him like an equal, finally. Shame it had to be pointed out like this, though.
Just waiting for Buffy to speak up about what she's hearing about Angel. You know her mind has to be going a mile a minute on where Penny might be going with this. The truth will set you free, sweetie, if you can bear to accept it. |
| You are going a little more indepth than I was! lol |
| Neart | 03/17/2006 01:57 am |
Gah! how could you end it there! You big tease, gimme more of this fic pls. Oooooh I love that last sentence! the big perv. *** vote penny for president***
|
| Penny would accept the vote...but I'm evil! |
| Spikes Slayer2 | 03/17/2006 12:24 am |
| wow.. they way you have written this has changed everything.. angelus is a bastard and he only wanted to "be good" cause of his adult lust to a attractive *young* and probably virgin child!! thats amazing how you potray the events of angels path to redemption and the fact that you have explained everything so indepth and with great knowledge, truly makes this story magnificent!! keep up the GREAT work!!! |
| Thank you for your kind words |
| UncagedMuse | 03/16/2006 10:57 pm |
| OMG! I LOVE THIS FIC! You are doing an magnificent job with this. I will be waiting patiently for more!!! |
Thank you...as I also thank the muse  |
| Karyn | 03/16/2006 10:32 pm |

| MarzBar | 03/16/2006 10:27 pm |
| That's a great lecture by Penny. Will the Whelp scream and swear and stomp out now? More story please. |
| The whelp is in shock i think! lol |
| lilmamaday | 03/16/2006 10:27 pm |
Ewwwww....so Liam liked them young....eww..... I really hope that for once Buffy really listens to what someone has to say about Angel/Angelus/Liam without making excuses or diving head first into the river (de)nile! Still loving the story!
***And Giles forgetting to take notes? That is so out of character, I think that Giles takes notes in his sleep (lol) |
| almost forgot to take notes! lol |

| You are officially my favorite author now. You have said what should have been said in 99.99 percent of these stories. This the best story I have read yet. Please update soon and keep up the good work. Other authors this how spike should be defended and explained. |
Thank you so much...that is really high praise and you've made my day  |
| Pin | 03/16/2006 07:46 pm |
| Fabulous! I am fascinated by your reasoning for the demon-human hybrids that are vampires, and adore the fact that the issue of Angel's unhealthy attraction to a 15-year old is finally being addressed. Thank you so much! Looking forward to seeing the reactions to this new persepctive. |
LOL...glad you approve...I'm looking forward to the reactions myself
|
| redwulf50 | 03/16/2006 07:46 pm |
