A very messy situation and this sex scene seemed very un-Rupert-like. I'm wondering if you're leading to something worse for him to do than killing Angel and falling in love with Xander's Ex and *almost* forcing himself on her ... she didn't say no, but barely said yes. It just felt wrong. Interesting to see where this goes.

Author's Response: It was kinda supposed to feel wrong. Hope you like the story.

Author's Response: But also, even though it was kind of wrong and sad, this is probably the low point for Giles' character. It's his weakest moment. I was hoping the takeaway from it would be that he wanted to control the situation. He's completely vulnerable emotionally, while she's vulnerable physically.

I really enjoyed this chapter!! :) I'm rooting for Giles and Davinia to be together, so I hope they'll figure this 'moving to UK' situation out. Can't wait to read more of your amazingness.

Author's Response: Thanks so much!

As with every couple on this show, Giles & Dav is extremely complicated, even more so. When it comes down to it, she is still a 19 something year old girl and he's a 40 something year old man and compounded by the supernatural world Giles lives in, they are miles apart. He knows what he wants but she's still figuring things out. Plus, super bad timing considering she JUST broke up with Xander. Maybe if he'd waited even a week. So this chapter was a dichotomy, at once sexy, but ultimately sad for me. If i compare it to Buffy & Spike making love when locked in a cage on a cot after being tortured and yet, that scene was so much more sweeter, and they were so connected. So in summary, I know that everyone is pro Giles/Dav, but I'm still not convinced, they just make me sad.

On a side note, I sure hope that Joyce didn't hear what was going on. Yikes! Completely addictive story, can't wait for the next chapter. :-)

Author's Response: Thanks so much for the comment! Though you're right, Rupert is much older than her, Dav is actually older than the Buffy and her friends. She's twenty-five and she's been engaged before, so she's someone who'd imagined herself married by now. This scene was supposed to be sad and a bit dark, so you're not the only one to pick up on the darkness. Thanks so much for the comment!

Author's Response: Also, I'm not really trying to convince you of anything as a reader. I'm glad you're conflicted and still interested.

I really love this fic but Im a little bit tired of reading about Dav and Rupert. What about Spike and the fact that he is alive?

Author's Response: Don't worry, next chapter will be Spike and Buffy all the way. I have to apologize for all the Dav/Giles stuff. I agree with you. I've gotten carried away. Thanks for the comment!

Very nice, why did no one think of food. I hope travers won't be an ass in this story, I guess it is up to whether or not you want him yo be a bad guy.

Author's Response: Thanks for the comment!

I almost equate the killing of Angel with Giles' killing of the Dr./Glory .. but leaves you with ... now about Spike. Now that he is human maybe a different attitude.
But realizing that Giles and Watchers are not just observers and instructors for Slayers. Killings of demons no matter what changes they have made do not fall in the same category as killing humans.. Although Angel's killing does seem more like a vendetta.. for himself and Jenny.
Now wondering if Giles is the best pick for her.. especially with Giles keeping on his clothes like he was ashamed of something or that she was not good enough.
Hmm.... enjoyed
enjoyed..

Author's Response: Thanks so much for the comment, hope the sexiness was okay. Glad you're conflicted about Giles' killing of Angel. I wanted to make that complicated, and Dav acts a bit like the audience in this scenario. She's appalled but ultimately sympathetic. The Giles keeping his clothes on thing-I don't want to tell you how to feel about that, but when I wrote it, he kept his clothes on as a power thing. He'd just laid his feelings utterly bare and she didn't reciprocate. She didn't even promise not to reveal his secret. He tells her he loves her and she can't respond. He's also recounting torture, and the memorial of that is tainting the whole thing, too. He just doesn't want to feel powerless. Of course the ending is an acknowledgment that he is.

Indeed, Rupert does dirty, very well. :) Seems a bit doomed. Perhaps for all of them. Especially those two. Not quite sure how they get to be together yet. Update soon.

Author's Response: Thank you! I do know how to bring the doom, don't I?
