Angel! How best to get back at his former friend, then by telling Buffy's secret, the one that only Spike knew. Paybacks a bitch. Thanks, he did need a wake up call. Pull out the rug, right from under him. I'm glad you decided that enough was enough. I can see where some people might have been put off by now but I guess they don't remember how badly Buffy treated Spike through out most of the entire series. Great job.
Author's Response: Much bigger than just Angel... you'll see... *cryptic smirk* Yes, he did need a wake up call. This was never meant to be drawn out this long; I was suppose to have them apart by chapter ten, not twenty-five. I just tend to get lost in a type of situation, though, and want to exploit it to its full worth. That's just the way I write sometimes. Yes, all readers need to have the way Buffy treated Spike in mind when reading this. Also, it's great to look at revenge without the act that evoked it - to see revenge in its truest form and see how bad it is. Undoubtedbly, anyone who reads this fic will be hit over the head that vengeance is a bad thing, which is one of the MAJOR things I wanted to get across. Thanks ever so for reviewing, Verda.

Oh Faith really has Gone Bad! lol
Author's Response: Faith is a villain. She will reveal herself as a bigger villain as the story progresses (yes, even more). O_O
Date: 08/25/2007 - 06:56 pm Title: Innocence
Faith, I just hate her...
Author's Response: She's a bitch in this story, I agree.

I love this story. Please continue. I have a feeling that you might be having trouble with the dark part of the story. Just remember the sooner you write it, the sooner you get it over with. Please post. It's turned cliff-hangery despite the best of intentions.
Author's Response: School has been getting in the way - sorry about that. When I originally planned this part of the story, I figured I'd be pushing out a chapter every few days, but that definitely isn't the case, and so it feels like I'm always leaving y'all hanging. :( I also thought that we'd get past the dark parts at around chapter ten, but that certainly didn't happen. ^_^ And, yeah, sometimes I just wanna zoom right past the dark parts (really the main story arc) and get to the happiness, but I must admit that I love writing dark stuff. This story is pretty much always with me; I'm always thinking about it and jotting down ideas whenever I think of them. So, really, it's better that I've taken a step back for a little while, as I've refined several ideas and key plot points. Thanks for commenting.

more please
Author's Response: More soon. :)
Date: 02/21/2007 - 06:17 pm Title: Innocence
I say you keep Spike acting like a shit to everyone but Buffy. Not in a sickening lovey dovey way, but more us against the whole miserable fucking world way? A major reason why I loved Spuffy on the show was because of how dark and destructive but also passionate they could be together. MUCH LOVE FOR SEASON 6!!!
Author's Response: Yeah; definitely needs to act better toward Buffy. And season 6 is probably my favorite season. ^_^

I had already reviewed but my stupid computer is acting funky lately. Let's see what had I said in the other one? Oh yeah.....Faith is a bitch, she needs to get sat on by Big Bertha, so does Spike. Please update soon!
Author's Response: Big Bertha! LMAO! Thanks for that! ;)
Date: 02/20/2007 - 04:23 am Title: Innocence
Glad to see you back in action!
Seeing as how your writing is good, and I mean grammar as well as content, I'm hoping for good things. Although I am a believer that good story isn't necessarily a happy one!
Best of luck to the muses!
Author's Response: Thank you so much; it's comments like these that keep me going. I don't know what I'd do without people like you that give me feedback and feed my muse. I probably wouldn't of gotten further than the first chapter without ya. Sometimes I wanna write this as a pseudo-tragedy with a sad ending, but you're all there to faithfully keep me in check. ^_^ And I'm happy for that, too, as I'd also be pissed if I read any lengthy Spuffy story that ended sadly. Thanks again! :)
Date: 02/20/2007 - 04:21 am Title: Innocence
can't wait to see what happens next!!!!!!!!! :D
Author's Response: Thanks! :)
Date: 02/20/2007 - 12:06 am Title: Innocence
good update but i hope that buffy doesnt believe what faith says
Author's Response: :( She's gonna go ballistic. ;_; Thanks for reviewing!
Date: 02/19/2007 - 10:06 pm Title: Innocence
Thanks for the feedback. Wow, didn't predict the part about faith knowing buff's secrets, but another turn. Deep, dark, and delicious. Rock on!
Author's Response: *evil laugh* Thanks, I'm trying to make this as dark, unpredictable, and cliffhangery as possible. :)
Date: 02/19/2007 - 09:03 pm Title: Innocence
I can't decide who to hate more...Spike or Faith. Can't wait til the next update!
Author's Response: Definitely a toss up. Hopefully you'll find some solace, though, in that I'm going to explore fully next chapter how Faith found out, and Spike will be just as shocked as Buffy. Basically, he didn't consciously do anything bad; maybe that will put the hate off of Spike a little. He knows that its taboo, trust me. Spike might be sick, but he's not that sick. ^_^ Thanks for commenting!
Date: 02/19/2007 - 07:42 pm Title: Innocence
wow you really want people to hate spike huh? he better do something great to redeem himself
Author's Response: D= Yeah, I guess I want people to hate him right about now. Not by the end of the story, but at this low point, it's completely possibly that everyone will hate him. I have enough up my sleeve to make things amendable; I'm not ending the story before they're both happy and together. Hopefully I'll realistically get there, I know I've dug everyone in quite a whole, from the Buffy antics in the pre-story days and the Spike abuse now, but I believe I have good enough plot and events in the future to slowly mold them back together. Thanks for the feedback!
Date: 02/19/2007 - 02:06 pm Title: Innocence
I hate FAith!But love the twist!
Author's Response: Faith, LMAO! Thanks so much! :D
Date: 02/19/2007 - 01:11 pm Title: Innocence
Ooh! Thank you for the update! Please give us another! I'm not too proud to beg... please? lol, great chapter.
Author's Response: :D You don't have to beg; another chapter's on the way. Trust me, I couldn't leave this story if I _wanted_ to, it's bloody well all I think about in school. Not that I want to leave it, though, as I love writing this and hearing what people have to say about it. Thanks for the review!
Date: 02/19/2007 - 12:56 pm Title: Innocence
Would have to agree that things can't get any worse between them. Could it be Angel that told everyone after the Cordelia incident? Would love to see some Spuffy but it's going to be an uphill struggle with this one! Please update soon.
Author's Response: Yep, this is more of a story _to_ Spuffiness than actual Spuffiness; that's later. Good theory on the secret. Updatin' soon, trust me. Can't let my readers down now can I? ;) Thanks for the feedback! :D
Date: 02/19/2007 - 11:56 am Title: Innocence
*covering from stones the other rewievers will throw at me* I tink that even if the ending was harsh it was dramatic and good. I soooo hope to see them back together but I personally love angsty spuffy. I think this story is brilliant and so is the end of this chaper (21),
Author's Response: :D :D :D Thank you! Definitely going for dark and dramatic and maybe cruel... I'm sick, I know. More angst and happiness on the way, maybe not in that order... ^_^
Date: 02/19/2007 - 10:26 am Title: Innocence
that was so cruel of Faith to use Buffy's secret against her.
Did Spike tell or did she find out on her own. He told Angel but I didn't think he told anyone else.
I see some groveling that Spike will have to do to get Buffys trust and love back.
Buffys tough but, I could she her running away from this.
Author's Response: :D I love your reviews; they tell me exactly what you're thinking and where to go, what's plausible and what's implausible, how you feel about the characters, etc. We will explore how Faith came to know the secret next chapter; it's not as bad as it seems by the cliffhanger. As for Spike groveling... he's gonna do some, but probably less than you'd expect. Mostly I'm gonna throw him in situations where he can consciously be a better person, help Buffy, see the world in more than black and white, destroy stereotypes, and overall become a hero. Not abandoning the anti-hero in him, though; most of the stuff he does will probably be unknowingly at first. Thanks for reviewing! :D
Date: 02/19/2007 - 07:30 am Title: Innocence
Faith?
Faith?!!
Oh crap. And Spike that doesnt know the diffrence between Buffy and Faith? And then mean Spike? And then...Faith. Evil evil Faith. Seriously mentally damaged Faith.
Now I am worried. :(
Author's Response: :( Suicidal tendencies ftw! :D
Date: 02/19/2007 - 07:15 am Title: Innocence
Am looking forward to more.
Author's Response: Awww, thanks! :D
Date: 02/19/2007 - 06:24 am Title: Innocence
yes, yes i do want him to put things back together. really. really. soon. !!! lol please update when you can! Looking forward to it!
Author's Response: Hehehe, it's definitely in the future. I'm gonna rely more on events to do the mending and not blatant attempts by Spike, though. He probably couldn't charm his way out of this one, anyway, even with a little Neruda faithfully at his side. Ha. Thanks for commenting! :D
Date: 02/19/2007 - 05:59 am Title: Innocence
I must admit the Spuffy relationship so far is kind of sick, but hey, I like reading it, so maybe I'm not all there either. ;) Love the story, really hate Faith.
Author's Response: Yep, I'd definitely describe the current Spuffiness as disturbing and sick.... my intentions were pretty much always aimed at doing that. :) This is pretty much the end of that stuff, though. Thanks for the feedback!
Date: 02/19/2007 - 05:37 am Title: Innocence
Oh wow...what's gonna happen now? Spike's been as ass, but I didn't expect him to tell everyone about her past. Update soon please!
Author's Response: I will soon. Thanks for reviewing! :D
