Dark, but well written. It always frustrated me about Buffy because she would say no and mean yes. No should mean no. How is a person to know when you actually mean it if you play this yes/no game all the time before. I can see how it would have basically driven Spike insane to know that he'd actually hurt her.
Thanks Tasha - I am glad that you found Ravished to be good. I always thought in a similar vein... kept wanting to explain to Buffy the concept of a safe word to her. I do think Spike would have broken himself if he had hurt Buffy so glad you see things similarly *HUGS*

That's so heartbreaking. But beautiful in it's darkness.
Great writing. So many emotions in not so many words.

I just got an image of an insane Spike gently brushing a catatonic Buffy. Very sad and bittersweet image. Well done.

it's kinda depressing but nevertheless excellently written

The man vs. the demon, which one truly won? Or did they both lose in the end, have they lost Buffy for good?

Can't wait for more.

This is darkly beautiful, the last two lines in particular. You’ve done another excellent job.

That was great! As much as he struggles, sometimes you just can't win but he will always love her. That's the tragedy that is Spike!

Tragic. But incredible. Your originality astounds me.

this is so sad, but you know i think it is something Joss would have explored had he gone ahead and allowed the inevitable to happen.

I have always felt that Spike would have claimed
Buffy if he had gone ahead and raped her. Turn her? Maybe, but claimed her yes.
Sad but very touching.
