Very, very cool. I like how you didn't try to portray Spike as good (at best he's an anti-hero) and Buffy's attraction to Spike is finally explained (I never did get it from the show). You are a very great author. Write on!

That was really cool. It was very different from the average Spuffy angst fic, which is why I liked it. Good job.

As usual, you do not disappoint. Wonderfully executed. You have captured the essence that is Buffy and Spike with remarkable clarity that few people have been able to do, including myself. True, much different from your normal style, but that only goes to show your amazing versatility. Suggestion: Spike POV to follow? Keep up the good work!
