I love how brutely honest Anya is. I think some readers might find what she said to be a bit harsh, but in my mind, that's Anya. She says whatever anyones thinking. Buffy has a good thing in Spike and she's being to stubborn to take him back. She dying and doesn't need to be alone. Like you mentioned in your response to me: Buffy and Spike have really bad communication. If they would just talk it out, Buffy would realise how much Spike loves her.

I would like to get a better view on just how sick she is. I know you mention it. But does she take pills is she bed-ridden alot, does she gets visiting nurse? I'm just curious for me. If you don't want to add all that jibber jabber to the story, could you just email me? I

Author's Response: I always liked Anya because she says what everyone else is thinking. I figured I'd make her character very protective of William/Spike and not so fond of Buffy. I will be getting William and Buffy under the same roof in the coming chapters and that's when I'll show more of Buffy's illness. She is having chemotherapy given to her through and IV at the hospital and i'll be writing about some of the side effects. She's been ill for about 3 months and she's only had about 3 or 4 sessions of chemo so far so the negative effects will be coming through soon. Thanks so much for all your responses. Its nice to know people are reading.
