I just read your latest chapter and I realized that I was so caught up in the whole Buffy/Spike dynamic and everything I had no idea what was going on with the actual plot. So I went back and reread from the beginning and I wanted to tell you I really like your storyline regarding the prophecy and the hellmouth. Its original and very well thought out so far. I think its neat that they are actually out of the country and exploring and I can't wait to see what happens in Mayan time!!

LOL

Spike is still a twit.....and Angel needs to get over the fact so what they didn't trust him......to be honest I didn't trust him all year....making a deal with the devil, and all that......His deal with devil cost him the life of Fred, Wesley, and Gunn....the breaking down of Lorne......all to give his son a chance to have a normal life......I think that was a touch on the selfish side and he should look in the mirror before he condems others who questioned his trustablitity after taking over W & H......yes a parent would do anything to save his son, but look at the price it cost.....

I love the trip here, it's so cool and I can't wait for the next chapter.....hope you won't be leaving us hanging for too long, LOL....]

I love it! I can't wait until the next chapter. Buffy still needs to knock Spike down a peg or two. She is as innocent in this mess as the fang gang, Spike is the one who chose to stay away and if Buffy found companionship in the mean time than that's Spike's problem and not hers. Spike needs to eat a little humble pie before getting on with the Spuffy. Update soon because i'm so hooked.

AH! What happens next????? I'm so happy that Buffy grew a little spine! My God! Spike and Angel are assholes! At least things got better after they got on the plane! But I don't know how much more of this angst I can take! There's only so much before you begin to lose readers. So far, the story has been nothing but angst - perpetual angst is not good! Please, throw us a bone here! I love your story, but if something or someone doesn't change soon, I'm going to stop reading this. Just tie Buffy and Spike together and then to a tree and leave them there! Send Nina and Angel away for 24 hours so Buffy and Spike can FINALLY clear the air!!!!!!! Please!

I also agree with whoever said that if felt like Dawn and Willow have betrayed Buffy. Dawn and Willow say that they want to get Buffy and Spike back together, but everything they've done has had the opposite effect! One of the big reasons Spike is avoiding Buffy is the whole immortal issue - but by Dawn and Willow refusing to tell Spike, they're not giving him any incentive to think better or differently of Buffy. I hate Dawn and Willow very much right now - and hope they either get their come-uppance or get bitch-slaped. Either one would make me happy.

Though I have to give praise where praise is due: I love Xander and Illyria. I love that Xander has finally grown up, and Illyria is cool no matter what - her interactions with Spike are a fav of mine!

I can't wait to read more to see if something changes! I hope I'm not coming off sounding too harsh and just plain mean. That's not my intent - but I just want to let you know the areas that could use some improvement to make this story so unbelievably awesome.

I enjoy this story so much! I kept checking after reading chapter 6, but after a while I think updates were a bit scarce. Now that the story is up and running again, I have to say I am glad to be back with it. Usually with most fics, if there is a gap in postings, I'll have to reread the story and refresh my memory. For this story, I didn't have to do that. The first six installments were burned onto my brain.. I love them.
I've always wondered what the dynamic between remaining angel characters and buffy tvs characters would be like, given the callous behavior of Giles when it came to saving Fred and the overall contempt of the scoobies towards the angel cast for taking over wolfran and hart.
I've always felt there'd be hell to pay, and now, I'm actually seeing it.
keep up the good work, I'll be coming back for me.

This story really got under my skin when I started reading it. I loved the entrance Spike and Angel made when they first got to the house, but I hated the way Buffy was acting. However, I couldn't stop reading it and I couldn't wait for the next chapter to come out to see what was going to happen next. I've read a lot of stories where the writers had the characters doing something that I thought was just completely out of character that I just couldn't finish because it just wasn't believable. Your story is so well written that even though I wish Buffy would stop acting the victim and I wish Spike would stop being an ass, you have me believing that that isn't the way it is. So while I agree that they should just stop this dancing around and JUST TALK ALREADY, I'll keep right on reading because I think you'll make it all worth while in the end. Thank you!!

Please dont think that I am not enjoying this story, because I AM!!! BUT bloody hell can we give Buffy a break, having Angel playing holier than now is really starting to get to mje. I dont care how much Buffy hurt Spike in the past he would NEVER treat her like that!!!!!!!!!!!!! You really have some I hate Buffy issues and its taking away from the great story you are writing...
I have always loved your stuff Madrog but please tell me Buffy gets some rocks and comes out fighting!!!!!!!

Was really thrilled to see an update. Still think Angels being pretty high and mighty with his forgiveness. But glad to see Buffy being less of a wimp. I do like this fic update soon.

Hmmm, I'm waiting for Spike to get the smack down he deserves......Buffy has had more then her share right now and he needs to get called on his piss poor behavior....since coming to Cleveland. I'm liking Nina more and more at the moment and I think she needs to have a nice talk with Spike maybe and tell him what an ass he is......I HATE Dawn at the moment, and Willow too, for they both, more Dawn then Willow, have the power to set everything straight about the Immortal and has chose to keep their mouth shut. I veiw it as a betrayal of their so called caring about Buffy. I hope someone calls them on it as well, especially Dawn not telling Spike about the spell the bad rude man had over her and Buffy. They both seem not to care that Angel and Spike have the wrong impression about Buffy, as long as they are back in their good graces.....I"m glad Angel is coming around, that was a nice surprise. I hope Spike wakes up and smells the coffee pretty soon, LOL! And I hope Buffy's spine gets a bit more straight and stronger and finally stands up for herself a bit more and call Spike on his childish behavior.....but we have the Yukon giving us the prospect of this happening or whatever you have to surprise us with.....looking forward to what you have instore for us. I just hope Buffy gets a chance to confront the Immortal to taking advantage of her mind, body, and for spelling her bratty sister too, LOL.

PS

I would have loved Buffy to have said to Spike at the end of their sparring, something like, "I wasn't fighting to the death. I was fighting to get noticed. Now if I thought you were looking for the one good day, I never would have landed on my ass, you'd be dust or whatever hybrid vamps do when they get staked......" don't ask me why, it just popped there and would not leave until I shared it with you, LOL!

waiting, not so patiently, LOL, to see what you are going to do next.....I'm happy ole Blue is staying behind......LOL

In the past I have been a big fan of your writing, however, I'm having a really hard time with this one. I like Angel and Spike being mistrustful of the Scoobies and I loved the scene where they first walked into the Watcher's Council. The thing I'm having trouble with is the wimpy Buffy who runs to her room and cries and stands in the background and pouts. I keep waiting for her to snap and put them in their place for acting as arrogant as they are. Maybe get back some of that old chemistry she had with Spike. Instead she just keeps simpering in corners. I do think its a good story overall, and I know that Buffy does deserve some slack for some of her past mistakes. I just like her character better when she has a spine.
