Great story. I am assuming that Drusilla is the person behind this. What an interesting way for Buffy to learn about Spike (William). It is funny how Buffy did not make the connection. I am glad you are writing this story. I did not read the other version because it was all human. I think this version will be more interesting. I can't wait to read more.

Author's Response: Thank you so much! And you'll find out soon enough if you're right and why Buffy doesn't make the connection. ;) We're glad to be writing this story, we're truly enjoying ourselves and that it seems that people are enjoying it with us, which is always a plus. There'll be more next Sunday, hopefully. ;)

just read the first to chapter, and I'm looking forward to more!! upadate soon please!!!

Author's Response: 'yay! thank you ! We're so glad you like it so far, we'll try to update on sunday .. '

I forgot to ask, since I do love stories with this type of premise, could you possibly let me know what the other story is that is similiar to this one (from whom you got consent to write your own), and where I could possibly find it? As if I don't have my plate full already between following other stories while writing myself, but I'm curious as I coulnd't think what story , that was already written, was or if I've read it before. You don't have to mention it here if you don't want, my email address is under my pen name if you prefer. I would greatly appreciate it.

Author's Response: No, I don't have any problem with telling you or anyone the name of the other story. It's Defying Time and Reason for Love by Rachel_SA and you can find it here: http://www.spikeluver.com/SpuffyRealm/viewstory.php?sid=13054

I haven't finished reading it yet, but from what I've read it's very good.

I liked the developments in this chapter, you've got me really curious as to who the mysterious Mr. Meadows is. I loved Buffy's reaction to the poem and the letter. I can't wait to find out what happens in 1880. Fantastic update!

Author's Response: Oh, Mr. Meadows is not such an interesting character, the woman who paid him for his services rendered, is the one you have to look for. ;) Thanks for reviewing, sweetie!

Love it, I have a feeling this story is going to be another one of my favorites. It's the whole William thing and communicating with someone from the past. I just love that idea. I admit that I did think it was similar to the other story, but after reading the first chapter, I could tell how different it was. I'm sure Buffy will put two and two together and realize that William was Spike. I can't wait until he shows up. I have a feeling things will get interesting when he does. Great chapter=)

Author's Response: Oh, you're too sweet, Tammy and we're very honored you think so. :D We love the idea, too, and hope you all like what we're planning for future chapters. Oh, yes, things are going to get very interesting when Spike shows up. Thanks for commenting!

WOW I really like this one! Its awesome can't wait for the update

Author's Response: wow, we're so happy you like it so far, thank you! Next chapter will be on Sunday ;)

Well I love the story so far. :-D So the desk came to William like it was made for him. ~ So that's why the desk was so cheap; it was sponsored so to say. A mysterious woman paid the shop owner to sell the desk to William; and she does witchcraft (thrall) too. Maybe the same one that was at the window earlier with Buffy and Joyce. ~ And the same wind came when Buffy opened her 'new' desk. And she is responding now to the letter she found. Looking forward to the next chapter :)

Author's Response: Thanks for reviewing, btw :D
