| Doubt if it'll get through his thick skull but maybe. Dru didn't think so, if I got her meaning. I hope Spike does hit him, won't that be fun! So good Jacks, you must be so proud. Thanks for leaving it out here for all to enjoy. |
Wow...you know you're making my day ...right?  |
| fallen_angel | 04/14/2006 01:26 am |
| i wanna ask the same thing, can i hit him? Gr8 chap. |
If you wait, you might find a better solution!  |
| Athenewolfe | 04/13/2006 07:54 pm |
| LMAO - oh please please please let spike hit him. or Xander or spike and xander both hit him |

Another thing to blame Angel for "Riley" the living Angel subsatute.
I wonder, if you traced Rileys family tree back, hmmmm.. Riley-Angel, Angel-Riley, Kissing cousins? How could 2 men be soo excesivly dence? It could most defanatly be genetic. |
I think they just two of many  |

Oh! I wasn't trying to give advice so much, as live in the psychology brain. I used to counsel people, so it's easy to just fall back into it, LOL. I was thinking about what Angel probably needs at the moment, not making a specific suggestion to your writing.
It was late when I read the chapter, so I guess I didn't think to make that clear. Carry on! |
| It's amazing how alike we do things! lol |
| redwulf50 | 04/12/2006 03:56 pm |
LOL, excellent chappie  |
Thank sweetie...I love picking your brain for ideas!  |
| Delicia | 04/12/2006 01:36 pm |
Yay, Xander is all insightful!! Angel is having a hard time understanding how wrong he's been. But, if Penny thinks he can be saved we'll have wait and see.
|
| Penny's heart is too big...I wanted to dust him! |
| Robyn | 04/12/2006 10:08 am |
Thanks for the update, I loved Xander being all insightful. In that one paragraph he managed to really hit one of Angel's main problems right on the head. And I love the control that Spike showed, Penny is really helping everyone grow up so nicely. With luck she might even be able to help Angel a bit. And Riley, he really is clueless. I am looking forward to the final showdown with him in whatever form it takes. I am also really looking forward to the interaction between him and Xander, with all the positive changes Xander has made it is going to be interesting.  |
You say interesting...I say hard! Getting into the head of those two...'nough said!  |

Great chapter. You've hit bullseye with Angel and Riley  |
| I'm trying too! |
| Bridget | 04/12/2006 09:24 am |
| Good chapter. I am glad that Spike and Xander are friends in this story. It is all so tiring reading about Angel and Riley who never seem to learn anything. Hopefully, Angel will be up for it in the next chapter. Love the story. |
We'll see what happens!  |
| Kat | 04/12/2006 09:04 am |
| lol who is wanting to do the hitting now. and Riley and Angel could be mirror images of stupididy lol. |
Guess you're gonna have to keep reading to find out! lol  |
| Richard | 04/12/2006 08:23 am |
You really dislike Riley, don't you? I think everyone else here does. 
You did an excellent job making Angel be pathetic in his own mind without any hint of pathos and without verging into parody.
You did the same with Riley when he was wishing for Maggie back to all but do his thinking for him. Now though, you're sliding into parody. I wonder if there's a way to recoup that, assuming you even want to.  |
| Actually, no, I don't dislike Riley. From a psychological point of view, all behaviour displayed is in keeping with the personality of the character. Parody is an exageration of said character traits. |
| Shadow | 04/12/2006 08:21 am |
Let Spike hit him... PLEASE! just once? *Snicker*
And Angel needs a swift kick in the balls for pulling the whole "I'm pathetic, feel sorry for me, I dont understand" crap.
*lends you the hammer*
GREAT CHAPTER! |
Shadow, I promise that I will try very hard not to disapoint you  |
| FetchingMadScientist | 04/12/2006 08:15 am |
| I say...let Spike hit him. Does that make me a bad person? |
Not at all...I want Spike to hit him too  |
| Karyn | 04/12/2006 07:31 am |
“So…can I hit him?”
giggles!!! yeah jack! can he hit him? lol, great update!! |
Thanks sweetie, your wish and all that rot!  |
| Spikes Slayer2 | 04/12/2006 06:57 am |
haha.. would love to see some more angel and riley bashing.. hehehe.. yay i got 2 penny chapters this week  |
I'll have to try for three!  |
| Lou | 04/12/2006 05:11 am |
| Gotta love King Riley the Deluded! |
can I just say...ewwww!  |
| Dolau | 04/12/2006 04:56 am |
| So much denial, so little time :-)seriously Lol in this chapter. Can I hit him? Please? Just a little, won't even leave a mark... much.. :-) Love your story. More please. |
Thank you...I'd say yes, but then is it fair to take away Xander and Spikes fun?  |
| Irina | 04/12/2006 04:54 am |
I like how you portrayed Xander in this chapter. I hope he does get a chance to hit Riley. Fantastic update!  |
Thank you...we'll see!  |
| UncagedMuse | 04/12/2006 02:23 am |
| LMAO Okay Riley is such an a**! Yes, Spike you can hit him. I love your work! You write such great stuff. More as soon as you can please. |
Thank you, you just made my day!  |
| Harry 4Eyes | 04/12/2006 02:16 am |
OK so now it's Spike acting like a hyper active kid after a suger rush? Well it would only be fair if he is allowed to hit the bloke a few times for what he has done to Spike. Of course I was hoping moe a one on one with Riley wetting his pants and running away like a pansy that he is.
Well this fic proves something, those large foreheads definitely do not equal a high IQ as both the Captain Forehead and Cardboard have proven, they both as thick as a 4 by 4 if not thicker.
I can't believe Angel doesn't still get it and EVEN Xander does, that is saying something, the guy walked in on Spike/Buffy loving and didn't even put 2 and 2 together....naked press ups...really.
Well still loving it Jack
Update soon

Rofl thanks Harry, as always, it is a pleasure to hear from you  |
| Elizabeth Anne Summers | 04/12/2006 01:54 am |
| Are we killing Riley and Angel in a very painful and hilarious way?? PLEEAAAASE???? |
That would be telling!  |
| MarzBar | 04/12/2006 01:22 am |
| Can I hit him, too? Spike and Xander could be pretty funny together if Xander has smartened up. I don't see any hope for Cardbored. More story please. |
It's coming...but I don't like to see you without hope!  |
| gaillee | 04/12/2006 01:14 am |
| Thanks for another of your fine chapters. Love the Spike and Xander interaction. |
Thank you I appreciate your comments  |
| kim | 04/12/2006 12:37 am |
Good stuff here.
I think it's important to point out that Angel probably didn't understand some of those things that would have helped him be more human again. A simple one-on-one conversation, with compassion, with Angel once he's calmed a bit would probably be best for getting through to him. Blunt insults will only make him defensive. He needs the chance to ask for clarification of what he's not getting, and support in finding the right answer.
Love the Xander/Spike interaction, and Riley being so cluless to it. The poor boy was always in beyond his depths when it came to the supernatural. |
It might be best to wait for the conversation to be over before you give advice...you'll think that I'm just following your suggestions, when I am truely following my own plot! LOL  |
| slinkypsychokit | 04/12/2006 12:36 am |
//“So…can I hit him?”//
Big. Dumb. Clueless. Yep, looks like a Buffy ex to me. Seriously, does Riley honestly believe he's being stealthy with the following? Welllll, DUH! See above, re: Dumb and clueless.
Oh, hey, let's look on the brightside! If Riley gets eaten by something, the sheep in Iowa will be very grateful. |
| Rofl..lucky sheep! |
| Jace Nox | 04/12/2006 12:33 am |
*nods sagely to Spike* Yes Spike you may hit him...hard and many many times. *snerk*
Awesome chappie Jack...keep up the good...GREAT work.

Bless you Jace...I will continue to try!  |
