how many reviews have you got know.

good Story.

Love the story, the Spike and Anya conversation was great, as was the whole gile's reflecty thing.

Buffy/Giles?EWWWWW! LOL. Just wanted to tease you a bit since you didn't wanna hear it! I know, I'm insufferable but hey-

There was a lot of introspection in this chapter and some of the characters got things in their head straight. I liked the conversation between Spike and Anya. They are so similiar as far as the position they are in. Both demons for so long and they get crippled, having to learn to live a totally different lifestyle. I think they could be good friends because they are able to identify so much with one another and that showed how they helped each other suss things out. The only thing I didn't agree with totally is how they choose to forget about that night. To be honest, if that night didnt happen, they may never have been in the position they were in now. Not to say they need to celebrate it, but at least acknowledge it as something that happened, something they both needed at the time. No more, no less. Other than that, everything was peachy.

Giles angst: When you told me about that I was skeptical. Now, I am more skeptical BUT at the same time even less. It's weird, I know. I guess I've always thought of Giles as her father figure and nothing else for so long that the thought of it eeks me out. However, looking at it from another POV, I can totally see where he's coming from. Sometimes you do love someone in different ways that contradict each other. But the way you went through that and his thoughts was VERy well done.

Oh, and if you kill Buffy, I will frelling get you!

I liked this one. I have a question, is(was) Hallie really Cecily? I always wondered, she looked familiar...good job, keep on posting so quick. Be a Happy Bunny!

yay i am so glad to see you updating again! i am looking forward to spike making friends with the gang, should be cool.

Wonderful, I love the story. Definetly a very original idea for a bad guy.

very nice story love the spuffyness of it all, be kinda funny if you put in spike and buffy kissing and the sparks started a fire. hehe they have the fire, cant wait to see more

I don't have time for a long review so I'll just say I love it! And write more soon!

Thank you so much for continuing this story! I always look forward to new installments - I thought you handled Spike-and-the-infamous-bathroom quite well!

I will review you 200 times myself if you keep posting so quickly! This is a super good fic! Keep on writin, and I forbade you to stop until i get some really juicy spuffy! Well, I can't back that up...but pleeeease! more;)

Good job!

Are you still drumming your fingers awaiting my review? Hehe. I was hoping for some Spuffiness, for some conversation but noooooooo, Buffy has to go to England *said in a whiny voice*. But I'm glad that they have reaffirmed the fact that they do have to talk and Buffy inferring that she couldnt talk without being able to hold him was very touching. I know Spike is probably worried sick after just getting her back and now she's leaving. But I can't wait for the reunion and what happens when they do talk.

Speaking of leaving, I thought Giles took the cowardly way out. Not telling them that he's not coming back is wrong especially how he is putting it on Buffy. I understand some of his reasoning however so I won't totally criticize him too much.

Hurry up and finish because I need my Spuffy!

Love the quick update. Glad your muses butts have been kicked into gear. The separate conversations in here were all welcome. Even the short dialogue between Anya and Xander. I liked the Dawn/Spike moment. Those two have always had a special bond (one that, in my opinion, has never been examined on the show quite enough) and they are so comfortable around each other. And Buffy and Spike finally being able to chat. I'm glad she let him know that she really meant everything that she said. Things are looking up for everyone. Next stop? Hogwarts, er, England!

evil. thats all i have to say to you well and that this is a really good book but your evil for leaving it there
