It was really nice reading this story again - it is a very good blending of the history of events in the series and the characters turned into a super nice Spuffy transformation.

Author's Response: Thank you very much :)

Summary: Revised Summary

Spike's lover is a stranger; he doesn't know anything about the girl who visits him night after night, not even her real name. This is a dark, kinky neo-noir that is not for the faint of heart. To give specific warnings would give away the whole plot, but be prepared for anything.

Winner of Best Plot in round twenty-four of the Sunnydale Memorial Fanfiction awards. Runner up for Best Angst.

Really heart ache situation for Tara - Spike, I'm not feeling a lot of sympathy for just now. Somehow it feels wrong that he is just handing himself over to Buffy to do what she will with him.

I kept waiting for this - knew that Angel/Angelus of a copycat creation of this creature would eventually show up - still, it's tough knowing how Buffy's life has been so thoroughly imposed on.

Excellent variation on the events of the series - look forward to reading other of your works.

Summary: The scars on her face have made her a recluse but when the bleached stranger barges into the small town like a black clad hurricane, he throws her quiet life right out of whack. He’s aggravating, unpredictable, and oh so hot.

The destiny she never thought she’d have is set in motion the minute she starts having dreams of being someone else. But how can she figure out what it means when she forgets as soon as she wakes up?

The story is AU but it’s a world that has all the supernatural in it.

This is really a terrific story - and I say this only because of my admiration for it - You should think about editing it - delete some of the elements that become repetitive and tightened up the focus on Buffy's voice as a more mature at this point. After all her nightmares and the magic reversal spell - her earlier teen voice does not seem to fit now.

I don't intent any offense with my suggestions - it's something that I almost never do but I think a bit of editing would improve it and make it a lot more intense.

This is such a wonderful story - I love how you've recreated Buffy and Spike and their history with the vampires.

Author's Response: Thank you so much. Coming up with that storyline was quite fun. I'm glad you like it!

great timing - your story could have made a great alternate Buffyverse.

Author's Response: That's such a lovely compliment!! Careful or my head will get too big. :)

I'm very curious about this Mrs. Baum character and how you use her proposed "sexual desire" for Spike. I confess to not liking her sexual play on him. Wish I could figure out if they are real or just her attempt to play with his mind.

Author's Response: It's a bit of both, actually. It's mainly to throw him off, because I love doing that. Shaking up a character who likes to be in control. It's okay if you didn't like this bit though. :)

heartbreaking -

Author's Response: Yeah, I remember writing this chapter!

Summary: Drusilla tests Spike and he fails spectacularly. What will he do now that he has nothing left but his obsession with the slayer?


Begins during the summer between seasons three and four. Turns into a complete season four rewrite with little resemblance to the events in the series. Finally Finished!!!!

Having this OC and giving Xander a new girlfriend is nice - poor Xander so often gets the full out "jerk" treatment. Nice for a change.

Love what you are doing with the vampire bite mythos and how you used it with Angel imposing himself into Buffy's life in such an extreme way.

Summary: It's Season IV and Spike has been helping Buffy and playing chess with Giles. How might those things have changed the season?

I've been reading your works for a long time now and I always enjoy stories and style. Just wanted to say "Thanks" ever for creating such wonderful Buffyverse stories for the fans.

Author's Response: Thank you for telling me so. :)

Summary: A Joan and Randy fic in which the spell lasts a little longer and everyone has to deal with the aftermath. Might take Buffy and Spike a while to work their way back...

It's so sad reading about them in this Joan&Randy state - knowing what their reality was back before the spell and what that reality future would bring them.

Author's Response: It's easy to see the angst coming, isn't it? Knowing them as we do...

I read this before and I am just as effected by it now - it's such a sad tale, you've done such a good job with it.

Author's Response: Thank you. I'm glad you felt it worth a reread.

Summary: What if Buffy didn't get the ring away from Spike in HLoD? Why would he let her go? What might happen if/when the Initiative tries to grab Spike when he has the Gem of Amara on his finger? Where might the story go from there, and how would Las Vegas figure into it? Goes wildly off-canon almost immediately.
