Very good chapter! I wonder what you're going to do with Dawn the ungrateful little brat she is. But she was always more into whining than thinking wasn't she?

Author's Response: Thank you. Dawn will be feeling pretty bad, real soon now. Luv, Spuf

UGHHHHHH. GREAT chapters, but you left us THERE? I hope Dawn and Connor actually make it.

Author's Response: Thank you. I'm probably going to submit Part II of this chapter tonight. I'm trying to speed up the updating even more. When I'm done with this fic here, I'm starting a new one. It will be all vampires, etc. With a twist and AU. thanks, Luv, spuf

I do like this fic, very much. But I have to say I don't understand why Buffy tolerates this Riley, who is so obviously a bigoted ***, even if she is afraid of her feelings for Spike. Buffy's character should respond so negatively to his prejudices that she would have cut him loose a long time ago, even if this meant she had to find another excuse for not accepting Spike. I do love your Dawnie, though, very sweet, but very impulsive. And, I'm very interested to see where this is going...

Author's Response: Thank you. Yes, Riley is a pill in this. I always wondered why Buffy kept him around in the show? Then I figured it out...he was safe for her. She didn't have to love him too much, if at all. She was stronger then him, physically, emotionally, morally. That's why I have Riley as a kind of 'devil's advocate' in this fic. Buffy is becoming well aware that Riley is not her equal, Spike is. After this chapter, and in the next few chapters, Riley will have worn out his welcome. thanks, again, Luv Spuf

This chaste stretch is really becoming long. At this rate I really think Dawn and Connor are going to have sex before Spike and Buffy. Of course, it is definitely in character for Buffy to be so stubbornly self-righteous.

Author's Response: Yes, sorry, I know. But, Buffy is pretty timid, still about these things. However, she'll start to come around, soon. Something is going to happen to her, to open her eyes about how short life is. Luv, Spuf

Oh.... I'm so glad that chapter went without anything sad happening. Hopefully the baby wasn't too early and will be ok.

Author's Response: thank you. The baby, Elizabeth, will prove to be a big part of Buffy's future as well. Luv, Spuf

I really admire how you develop the relationship between Spike and Buffy. I don't completely understand how Riley fits in with Buffy having issues from her former marriage. He seems to be more of a charity project for Buffy than anything else!

Author's Response: Thank you. I know that Spuffy in my fics is usually very slow, but it does happen! Luv, Spuf

I just wanted to tell you how much I'm enjoying this very lovely fic. The story and the relationship between Buffy and Spike are so sweet and I love you way the story is unfolding. Thank you for updating so often-it makes my day to catch up on the story!

Author's Response: Thank you. I loved Spuffy! Luv, Spuf

OK, just marry them off already before Dawn ends up pregnant.

Author's Response: Interesting you should say that! thanks, Luv, Spuf

I do like this. And it does seem to explain some of the guilt.

Author's Response: Yes, Buffy didn't quite understand the situation, so she needed to come to terms. Thanks, Luv, spuf

O.K. great chapter, but can you get rid of Riley yet? At least cause some trouble for him. I just don't get WHY she's putting Spike through this. She doesn't even seem to like Riley.

Author's Response: Riley is losing ground, daily with Buffy, promise! Luv, Spuf

Wow, you are fast! 4 chapters in 24 hours and all of them very well written. I really got intrigued with your story, I love the way Buffy and Spike act around each other. Can you please update Buffy's revenge as well?

Author's Response: Thank you. I'm dropping Buffy's Revemge, due to lack of interest. thanks, Luv Spuf

The only thing better would have been if Dawn had threatened to run off with the gypsies.

Author's Response: Yeah, I know... Or been sold to them! Luv, Spuf

Ohhh.... have 2 men fight over you sounds SO romantic. It's just so much fun to read this kind of tension. Course in real life, it's not fun at all. But this is fiction, so I'll get my kicks this way!

Author's Response: It can get sticky in real life, huh? It will get sticky in this fic too! thanks, luv, Spuf

This chapter seems a bit scrambled -- technical difficulties, I suspect. I was able to piece it together, but I think there was a little bit that never made it. That being said, I love the chemistry between your spike an buffy. More, please!

Author's Response: I think I fixed this. Thank you, Luv, Spuf

Another great chapter - or 2. I love how you made Buffy widowed, it gives the perfect opportunity for a little hanky pank before the wedding vows.

Author's Response: Yeah, convenient, huh? thanks, Luv, spuf

loving it!!! damn....i can't ever guess who the robbers where...huh? anyhow...i'm just loving it...and how they both interact thanx so much hope you update soon

Author's Response: They will be semi-revealed soon. Spike has a few enemies in Cheyenne (not many though) and loving Buffy will put her in danger later in the fic. Thanks,Luv, Spuf

Ohhhh.... I love the flirting! This is so much fun. I just read this story up to date today, and I can't remember if I reviewed any of the other chapters. I can't wait to see where this story goes. So, is this one of your PG turns 18 or NC-17 or will it be a strictly PG story?

Author's Response: I'll respond on this review. Actually, this story runs a little long and varies between PG/18 and a little NC-17, depending on your perspective. This was a real labor of love for me as it sprinkles in certain aspects of my Mother's family history in it. The characters just seemed so perfect from BTVS/ATS for this one! I am seriously thinking of beginning to submit the first Spuffy fanfic I ever wrote... Buffy's Revenge Sunnydale Style Now, this is definitely a major NC-17 rating fic, especially when Spike finally enters the picture. The problem with this fiction is a I got some real 'slap' reviews at another site because Buffy is less then likable in this one, especially at the beginning. Angel is a total creep...everyone, including Spike (at first) are pretty obnoxious. I was thinking of maybe submitting the Summary and first chapter, then seeing what readers thought? Sorry this is so long. In the other fiction (which I intended on submitting as soon as Rebel Hearts was finished) Buffy is betrayed by Angel (Fantasy/AU) and decides to stick it to him, literally, with other men. So, unfortuately, it means Buffy with other guys, however, temporary. I did keep the 'affairs' with the others (it was more the who the other guys were that bothered some readers) very non-graphic. The only real graphic sex in this fiction is Spuffy sex, period. And, again, Spike is not a real stellar guy at the start either as he is holding something over Buffy's head and using it to get her into bed? Anyway...I wonder if I should submit this here? Thanks, Luv, Spuf

It's nice to see Hank be more human. A lot of fics paint him as a terrible monster, but even in the series, Hank was simply a failing father. I like that he's overbearing and dominant, but that he concedes to Buffy's and Joyce's wills.

too cool and even I rolled my eyes at some of it, but I love william the poet...and I am glad you aren't making it an Angel/Spike vie for Buffy's attentions
