| Great Chapter!! *sigh* I would have thought Joyce would have figured it out, but Dawnie's a smart cookie! lol |
| Joyce is a smart cookie, but judging by how long she was oblivious to the fact that Buffy was the slayer, I decided to not go with her figuring it out. Dawn on the other hand was damn close to figuring it out by this point in canon. |

| good update. dawn has it figured out. joyce is only a hint away. the slayer is glad he is hanging with her mum. now the easiest way for spike to screw this up, is not to tell buffy soon. thanks for the fun read. |
| Thanks! I'm glad you're enjoying it. |

| I like Buffy's thought that she felt more at ease because Spike was with her mom, I'm just hoping that some of the sentiment that made her feel that way remains when she finds out about the chip. I really enjoyed Dawn and in particular her thoughts when Spike left and that she realized that he was talking about Buffy. Thanks for the update. |
| Thanks, honey. I'm glad you're enjoying it. I'm just about getting to where Spike tells her in the writing stages, and while I have an idea of how she might react, I guess I'll have to wait and see if the muse decides to conform to that or if the characters take over. By this point in canon, Dawn had very nearly got Spike's feelings for Buffy sussed, so it seemed reasonable for her to work it out. Hopefully, more soon. |

| Our Spike's in a bit of a pickle, isn't he? |
| Thank you! And, yeah, he's pretty much right royally screwed... but he'll work it out. |

| spike better come clean and come clean quick... I would hate for Buffy to find out any other way. I am just glad that he told Joyce first that the chip does not work. |
Thanks, honey!
Like you say, Buffy finding out another way would be bad, but you can't blame Spike for needing a bit of time to work out how to tell her and build up courage. |

This is a fabulous story!! I really liked this chapter - can't wait for next update.
Thanks! |
| Thanks, honey! I'm glad you're enjoying it. The next chapter, hopefully, will be along soon enough. |

| Good story so far.Poor Spike freaking out.Update soon. |
Thank you!
And, yeah, poor Spike is in a bit of a mess. Updates when the muse allows. |

well that's a good sign, maybe her reaction wont be so bad...he just needs to be very careful about how he talks to her about it...can't wait for an update, this was another excellent chapter  |
Thank you!
It seems reasonable that once the whole heroic defender scenario had time to sink in that she would be glad to have him there to keep an eye on her mum and Dawn when she couldn't be there.
Muse willing, I should be getting back to work on this one today, but it's the muse willing part that's often the problem. |

| Well done thus far. With some dialogue taken straight from the show you've rooted the piece firmly in the established Buffyverse but there's sufficient exploration of new ground to make it all feel somehow fresh. Your original dialogue rings true with the show and characters we got to know and love too - more soon. Please. |
Thank you!
It's been a fun balancing act, trying to "forget" S6 (which I've been writing for so long) and get the character attitudes to ring true to where they were back in S5.
With luck, I should be making a start on the next chapter today. After that it's up to the muse. |

| Poor Spikey... |
| Thanks, honey, and at least on the plus side he's got rid of Harmony. That has to be a bonus. |
