    Really good, but really depressing. Poor Buffy! (And I would normally never say that, but I think she's kind of taking a lot of the flack that's not really hers.) Dawn and Willow are pissing me off. Can't wait to read more. Thanks.

    Enough of the angst please? Holy cow, can we please lock Spike and Buffy up a room together? Or at least get them talking to each other? Please?

    I must say i've always been a fan of your writing and i'm sorry i didnt notice this story till now but i think its great! Unlike what the other guys i have said i have found this fic to be one the best ones, seeing as Buffy always got off the hook to early in other fics bfore she endured some of the pain that Spike dealt with for a long time previous. Though i agree some of the blame goes to Spike and Angel, and that Buffy was under a spell and had no knowledge of Spike's resurrection but ultimately its still primarily hers and Giles' fault that they alienated Spike and Angel. So i agree that there is enough blame to go around i also like the fact that for once someone is writing a fic that actually causes Buffy pain for more than 2 chapters at a time then makes her see the 'light' and makes Spike forgive her as if nothing happened. So all in all keep up the good work!

    Hmmmm

    Mixed feelings.....to be honest Buffy, Spike, and Angel are acting like prats.....Willow and Dawn may talk the talk, but by Dawn not telling Spike the truth about the immortal she is lying to him by ommission and letting them think bad things about Buffy. Plus, how was Buffy supposed to know the Immortal was skum......she like all the other women was enamoured by him without a ring. Willow is being rather judmental on Buffy being taken in by the immortal, having never met the man to say if Buffy was not some how influenced to accept the ring by his aura of his power to influence the women. But that was my take on the show.....all women adored him, said how lucky she was to have him.......

    But then again it goes with how they always judged Buffy different, never taking in consideration that she too was a girl and not always the Slayer......what would have been the difference if Buffy would have told them that night about the spell.....I mean Dawn got her chance, and Willow did, so what's the difference....(pst, its the story plot, thats why, I know.)

    I applaud you on making me again think out of the box and want more.......I love reading others people ideas and takes I'm enjoying this story and can't wait to see how Angel and Spike deal with hearing Buffy's side of things.....and I hope that Buffy gets some of her own back and that Giles pays for his misdeeds once and for all.

    As a fan of your writing, I'm not thrilled to say so, but this story is all about an agenda so far and it seems at the top, it's to attack Buffy. The LA crew is not showing any kind of earned arrogance whatsoever, they are simply showing the kind of obnoxious behavior that is common amongst 5 year olds and boys having apissing contest. It seems this is all to put Buffy in her own little place... And sad to say that is exactly where Buffy is. And i've never seen her be so weak. So again, i say agenda. it's unfortunate, because again, i am a fan of your writing, but at this point, the agenda is owning your story and the characterization is bringing it all the way down. I have tried to hold on, but at this point, even turning it around wouldn't make this story for me. Which I'm sure you'll just wash your hands of, not even making an indent, as it's not part of the agenda. I'm just so incredibly disappointed.

    I must say the LA crew is still pissing me off. They sold ther souls to the devil and when it all goes pear shaped blame every bugger but themselves. I think Buffy should leave for a while. Go to Rome and deal with the immortal or something. From what they say they don't need or want her help anyway. Maybe they'll find she's vital to the plan and have to ask her to return. Just a thought. Buffy always pissed me off but I don't think she's in the wrong here.

    Well, I have to say I'm a little dissappointed in your characterizations. Believe it or not, it pains me to say that because I'm rather a fan of your writing. The Angel gang are acting like nothing but arrogant, outrageous assholes down to a man. How bothered could Angel be by the others not trusting him when he didn't trust himself in that time? He made the deal with the devil, did he really think there wouldn't be far reaching consequences for that? I think a little insight into that might be a little more true to character than this holier-than-thou demeanor he's carrying. Nina, I can't really say anything about as she's not been a major part of the story (and to be blunt, I don't care about her). Illyria seems a little off in certain respects but those are my own issues, not really with the fic. I'm at a loss with this Spike, though. No, I don't think he'll perpetually be love's bitch, but this cold attitude he has makes him look like a five year-old. Once again, he made his choice. He chose to stay with Angel, so he really has no right to be angry at Buffy dating and moving on (if she did in your fic). So he doesn't like the guy. So what? If TI was so terribly evil, they wouldn't have left her there. The episode's seen from a jealous ex's POV, so of course he's going to look like a bastard. Anyway, I just think he's being awful cold and spoiled about something he hasn't taken the time to understand. The same thing they're accusing the Scoobies of. My other issue is Dawn siding with Spike over Buffy, but I guess that's solely my problems, not yours. I just don't see Dawn behaving that way and I don't see even an attempt at a reconciliation coming so easily. They've spoke a grand total of 10 lines to each other since "Afterlife" and I just can't see it going down like that. Go ahead and kill Andrew if you want to, though. I've always hated him. :)

    This comment isn't an attempt at a bash, it truly isn't. They're just my feelings on your fic and you are, of course, free to dismiss them as it is YOUR fic. I'd never propose to tell an author what to write, even if it may come across that way. I'm gonna stick it out, though, just to see what happens. Your really are a good writer, and as I've said, these issues are mine, but I just thought I'd share them with you.

    What a concept! It's fantastic to see Spike as Spike again, and not just love's bitch.
