ok i dont get it. you put charlotte through all that just suddenly bring her back to los angeles like nothing. you could do better that this. i like the story from begining up to this last chapter. you didnt explain how charlotte found the demon or how the demon knew what she was meant to be. how the powers that be play a part in all this. you need to come up with a couple more chapters . this is just my opinion. the rest is up to you. like i said i liked this story.





































































































Author's Response: She had the download of Spike's memories - we already knew that. That means she knows how to get to the demon he went to to get his soul in Africa. Just like the demon was expecting Spike, it was expecting Charlotte. As for the PTBs - superhuman+vision=seer. It's all pretty clear if you read between the lines.

This really was a great fic with a unique story line! I've read through some of the reviews, and while I don't agree with a ll of them, I do see where most of them are coming from. My suggestion, if I can be so bold, is to possibly add a 'Spike/Other' warning on this story. I realize they arn't really 'together' at any point, but it might help people to be prepared for all the Spike/Charolette interactions that most Spuffy readers arn't used to.

The typical Spuffy fics this site is used to is a Spike that worships Buffy, and doesn't look twice at another girl. This Spike just respects Buffy, and still has wondering eyes. There is NOTHING wrong with that, but some people don't always go for that type of thing, If they had a 'spike/other' warning at the beginning, they may not be so... shell shocked, towards the later chapters and ending. :)

Angain, great story tho! And looking forward to whatever your next chapter might be! ;)

Author's Response: Hi. There are already Spike/Other warnings on the individual chapters, and I did make sure that Spike's vision was solely on Buffy until he was needed to help. As a mature adult, he's going to have other people in his life that he cares about besides his girlfriend - nothing wrong with that. He needed that kind of self-respect back. Anyone who reads my stories knows I don't write a Buffy whipped Spike puppy. If people won't be careful enough to read a chapter warning, then it's not my problem. I did my part. -Thanks for liking the story, though.

er what happened there then? did you get fed up and couldn't be bothered any more cus it feels like we've had the brush off!!!!!!!!!

Author's Response: Uh, noooo........It was meant to end there. I don't tie things up with neat little bows. It isn't realistic.
