Started reading this one ages ago and lost it. So glad to have found it archived here. Absolutely outstanding. I find all your characterisations completely believable. So I saw you've left loose ends for the sequel so I went straight on to read that one... so I'll just go and review that one now...

grand story - very much like your writing . A good second reading - Great to have this caliber of story in the "not high sex ratings" - it's a prime example of how a good story can be told with an Austenesque quality -

On the the sequel now -

oh my goodness... what a story... you- are awesome, the story- awesome, the sequel? - coming soon i hope. you did what i always hope to do with my story, which is actually capture the characters in all their Buffy-verse glory. Awesome, just.... .... awesome. As a side bar... your beta wouldn't happen to be available for more betaing, huh? Mine had to call it quits and that inhibits any further story production on my part, seeing as how my fingers tend to get to flyin' and i miss quite a few mistakes in my haste. Our stylings seem to be a bit similar, so i thought I'd ask. My story is 'Guardians of The Median' which can be found here, if you know anyone willing.... Again- freakin' awesome! ~emmee

Author's Response: Emmee, thanks so much! This review lifted my droopy spirits today :) I will ask my beta and a few other good betas I know & will definitely check out your story today. I Again, many thanks to you for making my day.

I just finished reading all 33 fantastic chapters. Great story, the is Spike really there or is this some unwitting spy was very effectively done. Now I have to go back and see if any of the weird things he said make sense with hindsight ;-) The story kept me riveted and now I'm off to read the sequel.

Author's Response: Elaine, thanks so much for the encouragement. & I hope you find the sequel enjoyable too :)

And there I wondered why there was a new story in the RSS feed (because the site was down, I did only see it through my LJ :) On to read the last part now ~ Oh.. William wants to go but Buffy won't let him but has trouble to give him a reason not to go. But I'm glad he had reason enough to stay even Buffy didn't voice it. And Angel couldn't stand seeing them together, huh? Wonder if his mark starting to burn has a meaning ~ Till the next story!

Evil author!

So Angel's membership is biting him in the ass...what a surprise...

Yep...complete idiots. And she still didn't say the words. Coward. It's not enough to just dance around them.

Regrets, eh? I'm a little worried..........

Author's Response: *Rubs hands together wickedly and laughs* Sorry. Got carried away with all the evil. I'll begin posting Regrets tonight. Hope you like it as well. :)
