I am so glad that Spike and Buffy will be leaving the group behind. Anya is right I doubt that the knights would hurt them they just want the key. I am a bit disappointed in Joyce's negativity about Spike in a way but it is exactly how it was on the show. Unfortunately she had ideas for her daughter that were outside her abilities like a normal life.

Now with Spike and Buffy leaving and on their own let the Spuffiness begin.

Author's Response: Absolutely, had to get Spike and Buffy on their own. Let the Spuffiness begin!
