Confusing time for both of them. Good gradual opening of both tightened psyches.

Spike's so...not Spike-like in this story (at least so far) but at the same time he really is...what I mean is that the way you're writing him is how I really think he woudl behave if in that situations--(this might only be true for me) but spometimes Spike is hard to write and you're doing a great job :-)

(Me being home sick is what's finally letting me catch up on the fics I want to read but it's alos making me leave not the best reviews...even if I try to; sorry)

Author's Response: I am so chuffed you see my interpretation of Spike as feasible. As it didn't happen that way in canon (and who would have watched if it did?) it is all in the way characters could have changed given different circumstances. Sorry to hear you're sick and do hope you'll be right as rain soon. And thank you again for taking the time to leave word. So kind.

I'm very impressed with this story. You've created a world both foreign and plausible, and done the same with the characters. I like your drained and yet deeply moral Buffy, as well as your broken down but still recognizeable (on the inside, at least) Spike. Well done, and I'm looking forward to more.

Author's Response: Thank you, caia! I'm so pleased that you can see how they have become a product of their experiences here - but are still the essence of themselves underneath. More will be on its way Monday.

Wowie. There seems to have been a plethora of slavery/subservience fics coming out lately and I'm not generally that interested in them. I think you've done a good job in capturing the reader's interest though with the larger questions...what impact would such a situation have on one's sense of identity, self-worth and respect for oneself, or indeed for others? Just as important, how do you maintain your sense of self when forced to subjugate all that you value? And at the end of the day what can you find that would make it worth trying at all? I love fics that make me ask more questions than they'll immediately answer so I'll definitely be for more. 8-)

Author's Response: Thank you, katakata! I am really glad that it is making you ask questions - it's making me do the same as I write it! It is so tempting to go for the quick fix but certain issues must be explored before they can move forward (IMHO). Hope you continue to read - and, of course, review!

I can't wait to see Buffy's reaction to the cock ring. This is a fascinating story. I just love it. I'm looking forward to the update.

Author's Response: Thank you, Carol. Am glad you're enjoying and reaction will be there next week.

Wow, yeah, she really has to explein to him exactly why he's there and what's expected of him.

Author's Response: Thanks, kim. Yep, he does need to be clued in.

I really love this story and look forward to every Monday to find out what is happening. I wish you could update more often but since you can't I know I have to learn to be more patient. Please make sure that you finish this story, I don't want it to be one of those unfinished ones. I hate when that happens. Well keep up the good work and thanks for a wonderful story.

Author's Response: Thank you, rach. Really can't write any faster without losing the plot! I know what you mean about WIPs and that's why I need to make sure I don't rush and then run out of puff! Have every intention of finishing - otherwise you can haunt me on LJ!

i must tell u... your monday update is the only thing that make the first day of the week a bit better!
i totally need some kind of interaction between buffy and spike... a "real" conversation, maybe...
seeing spike so broken is really upsetting... he is a creature of great bravery and endurance. hope he will regain his "spark" soon!
PS i usually like angel but... i fear he won't be on the good side (at least, where spike's corcerned) in this fic...

Author's Response: Hi, klylu. Interaction will come - remember they've only been in each other's company for a few hours so far. Keep the faith for Spike - but Angel...

This is a great premise and you're handling it very well. The events leading into the story have certainly altered Buffy and Spike and you're doing a great job conveying their changed circumstances and their emotional impact. This cowed, trained Spike is already interesting, and I'm looking forward to learning more about the past four years. Buffy, too, is well written.

I'm really enjoying this and can't wait to read more.

Author's Response: Thank you so much! Am so glad that this is entertaining you and hope you will continue to enjoy. It encourages me that you can see the reasons for their changed demeanour - so far. More next Monday.

Wow! This is your first fic...unbelievable. I am so mexmerized by this story. I really am being emotionally jerked around. I don't know if I can wait a whole week for the next chapter. You are an amazing writer!

Author's Response: Thank you, gaillee! Don't mean to emotionally jerk you around - well, maybe a little! Sorry for the wait but that's just how it has to be (not the fastest I'm afraid). Your flattery makes me blush. Ta, ever so.

Not suprised that Spike is misunderstanding Buffy's intentions here. After all..he's been treated like dirt. What in the world does Buffy walk in on when she gets back downstairs?
Awwww shoot! Gonna' make us wait a whole week before we find out what happens next! Well..Looking forward to it anyway ! : )

Author's Response: Hi, DaniD! Yep, communication issues abound - for now. Hmm. I know what she walks in on and so will you next week!

I love a story that can really get a rise out of me, and this one is pressing all the right buttons. You've pretty successfully sent me into mother bear mode. I want to protect Spike and kill everyone involved in his capture and "training." Kudos! It's great to find an author who can evoke that kind of visceral response. Waiting a week between chapters is torturous, but you seem impervious to bribes. Oh well... Until next Monday then!

Author's Response: Hey, weyrwolfen! So happy you are enjoying and can quite understand your desire to protect our vamp. Sorry about the wait - not the fastest I'm afraid. Crikey, what will happen if I take a holiday! LOL Only joking. Until next Monday.

This is a really interesting story. Will Buffy and Spike ever have a conversation? I like to read what they are thinking but I am ready for a little interaction. Can't wait to read next Monday's update.

Author's Response: Hi, Bridget. I'm counting on them talking soon - just remember they've only actually been in each others company for a few hours so far. Hope the interaction coming up with satiated your needs!

Author's Response: Hi, daisy. OK. In chapter one most of your questions are explained - and Tara not living in Buffy's house. Are you skipping to get to 'the good bits'? LOL I do that all the time and have to re-read. More next Monday.
