This is fascinating! I love the very believable portrait of Spike: his actions and motivations are very true to the character. OK, very true to how *I* see him! I also love the richly textured world you’ve created here. On screen we mostly saw Spike interact with Buffy, but it makes him much more three-dimensional to see him interact with Sunnydale at large. Of course Spike would flirt with the cashier at the liquor store!

I’m looking eagerly forward to reading more; I’m only sorry you’ve just posted three chapters so far!


Author's Response: I'm glad that other people seem to share "my" concept of Spike, especially when the show's writers spent so much time fighting over him. Thanks for commenting!

Huh, good mystery going. The mice seem to have snake bites, and the little pet left them as an offering. Like cats that are proud of the bird they leave on your doorstep.

Author's Response: I'm going to have to plead the fifth on this idea. :-) Thanks for leaving a review!

I am truly fascinated with this tale. A great start. I can't begin to imagine what's going on.

All that remained of what had once been a hollow, green orb the size of a small orange was a shattered fragment held to the chain by a delicate gold ring. Hollow, huh? Having read the books I think of something now. Especially after were three dead mice, arranged neatly like an offering. But I may be wrong or it happened sooner as I thought *remembers the red eyes* But it would make sense :-D And it was attached to a ring to wear it around a neck, right? Would have kept it warm when worn. Looking forward to the next part :)

Author's Response: All very good guesses. :-) I'm still withholding any extra clues though. Most of the "whats" will become glaringly obvious in the next chapter. Then I have the rest of the story to play with the "whys" and repercussions. Thanks for reviewing!

Yay! More! I'm really liking your Spike and the ways he comes up with to amuse himself. Immortality must be mostly boredom. I'm glad you have someone caring about Spike, even if it is a demon-snake thing.

Author's Response: Spike does kind of need a keeper doesn't he? Whenever he gets bored, he ends up in all kinds of trouble. Thanks for taking the time to comment!

*slaps hand over mouth* NO, I'm not gonna start speculating in public over what came out of that e.. *shhh* Gah, this is hard LOL

Anyway, nice to see the first chapter wasn't a fluke. It's so great to find new authors who can tell an interesting story. And no, I don't think it's boring or dry at all. (Need to say this: saw "ChrissieLinnit's" comment, and funny thing: for me it's the opposite. I tend to prefere narrative over dialouge.) Looking forward to more.

PS: I think I might be in love with Dave, hehe.

Author's Response: :-D Yes, thank you for your discretion. I'm glad you prefer narrative over dialogue because I'm going to spend a lot of time playing with Spike's past and motivations in this story. Thanks for commenting!

I loved him talking to Dave. That's awesome.

Author's Response: There were too many times on the show when Buffy would kick in the door of Spike's crypt and the expression on his face made me think "He was talking to something!" I'm glad you like that little quirk. Thanks for commenting!

Hmmm.... intriguing. I like being intrigued, so I'll carry on reading.

For a first fic, I'm VERY impressed. Well written, maybe a little heavy on the narrative and lacking in dialogue for my personal taste but that's me. You've either got a really good Beta or you're attention to structure, grammar and spelling is very acute. Either way, it makes this a painless read and the first two chapters cleverly capture pique the readers interest.

I'm looking forward to the next chapter. Thank you for posting. *smiles*

Author's Response: My beta and I are both pretty picky about spelling and grammar. I'm glad to see our efforts have been appreciated. Because so much of this story is about what Spike is like when no one it looking, the dialogue is going to remain pretty sparse. I hope you'll still enjoy the story though. Thanks for the feedback!

Oh wow! I just love how easily you can get into Spike's mind to give us a superb characterization. All his thoughts and feelings are incredibly true to what we saw of him in the show. And the mystery of the red eyes continues, but now with the clues of the broken charm and the squeezed mice. Can't wait for more!

Author's Response: Thank you!
