spark and burn nom sotha award nom nom button ML coh nom button
You know what it means... whatever can go wrong, will go wrong. ‘Murphy’s Law’ comes into play from the moment our two favorite blonds meet despite any initial attraction to one another. What’s the result when a womanizing genius and a prudish workaholic are forced together in every way with no choice but to deal with each other 24/7? Tons of UST! Will it ever get resolved, or will they kill each other first? .... “Tell me somethin’, pet. Wha’s the real reason for your knickers bein’ in a twist aside from the possibility you put your plug in sideways?” …. “The fact you’re still breathing is number one on a very long list of reasons and oh-my-God... crude much?” Romance, comedy and mild angst.
Awards won, readers&judges choice: best author at Spark and Burn. Indigo Crypt – best author-runner up and Chosen Awards judges choice. Cradle of humanity: Winner - best wip, runner up – happy workers award. Nominated at Spark and burn for best wip/best fantasy - at Serenity on the Hellmouth Awards round 5 for best Spike fic and best Buffy fic - at Spuffy Awards round 15 for Best Buffy Characterization, best fanatasy angst and outstanding fanatasy fic and at Cradle of Humanity Awards for best story and best romance .

ahh! now that's just taunting! *pouts* about the come-uppance i mean.
hee! frankly, i'm surprised spike lasted this long. another fascinating chapter, thank you so much!

Author's Response: Hehehh, oooops? But hey, it'll be worth it, Buffy get's some satisfaction out of it and Spike learns a thing or two. Thanks for the review sweets - smoochies.

Woo Hoo! New chapter! Well, new to me.
I love the glimpses of "love's bitch" that I'm catching through Spike's bravado. Great job of writing him faithfully even with such a different romantic history.
Their denial is so cute! They're SO doomed. Doooooomed! Heh
thanks for the great chapter! *hugs*

Author's Response: WOW - thank you soooo much sweetheart, I'm so pleased you enjoy Spike's character despite the history I've created for him. Oh yeah - they are well and truly doomed and will fight it as long as they can - like only Spike and Buffy do. Thanks for the awesome review darling - kisses.

AAAArgh! They're both so clueless! Makes me want to thwap them on the back of the head. And Spike is about to make it so much worse. Grrr.
It was nice to see Cordy and her infinite wisdom. Also, you intrigue me with this company ball thing.
Oh, if you have the time I'd love it if you posted early. I want to know what happens next!

Author's Response: LOL - wow, and I just updated again, hope you caught it. Spike is a dummy, yes, it'll take him a bit to learn, but he will.... soon - though perhaps not soon enough for readers ,but he will. Glad you enjoyed Cordy - she was a hoot to write and SOtia helped me out on that one. Thanks so much for the review sweety - I do hope you like the lates update - smoochies.

i'm sorry to hear about the family illnesses, i wish you all the best health and spirits. you'll be missed around here, but you're right family first. take care of yourself too!

Those two are adorable and infuriating! And the phone call!!! GRRRR (am now doing my Exploding from UST Dance) ;)

Author's Response: Giggles, thank ou boo. Yup, I agree our couple can be both infuriateing and cute - its like a ping pong match with them, lol. LMAO - I'd love to see what the Exploding from UST Dance looks like. Thanks for the grea review boo - hugs you tight.

Date: 07/07/2008 Title: Chapter 24: Conversations

Dude! That's the best kind of cliffhanger. As always, Cordy is hilarious. I love that Buffy had the courage to start the conversation - even if she didn't actually say much, it was huge for her to even attempt it. But then she just walked away! I just sat here and glared at my monitor for a bit after reading that. *shakes head* But Spike will figure out what to do next. I'm SO looking forward to The Ball.

Author's Response: Squeeeeeeeee, glad you liked the cliffy. My muse can either be evil, or good - depends on his mood, hee hee. It took a lot of courage on Buffy's part to have that conversation with SPike, but of course it means that she's getting ready to take that plunge. As for her walking away, well - typical thinky Buffy had to process what Spike told her - she's still gunshy despite her feelings. And yes, SPike will know what to do in next week's update at the ball, *winks*. Thanks for the awesome review my friend. Huggles and snuggles you tight.

Ah! Loved the cameos, but poor bleeding Spike. The poor boy was already hurting SO bad. He definitely deserves the week of Buffy lovin'. The invite to sleep together was awesome! Great job having such a
simple act say so much.
Dude! and now there are new sub-plots! What's up with Owen and the company car and Cordy? Will there be consequences to their very public PDA?
Will wait (im)patiently for next installment. Thanks a million!

Author's Response: Oh yeah, he deserves a whole week of total pampering, I agree, especially since my muse dragged him through the coals, bad muse, bad! LOL. Owen, company car and Cordy - well, its a surprise, not a huge one, but yup, another small sub plot, *winks*. THanks for the review darling - so glad you enjoyed the update - smoochies to you.

dude, i'm so sorry to hear about the RL madness. if there's anything i've learned it's that all kinds of crazy crap happens to good people. you're in my prayers, and i admire your attitude and strength. hugs and prayers.
Also, interesting development in the story here. i'm not sure how spike will take the whole 'first' thing. i can see him doing some victorious chest beating thing on the inside, but it may also give him pause. (no pausing!) Also loved the physics talk (yes, am physicist) - had never heard of that novel. might check it out. except there's so much awesome fanfic to be read. hmmm ;D

Author's Response: Thank you hon, I suppose now is time to realy test my strength, but I've a feeling when all is said and done, 'he's' the one who will lose out. Giggles, as far as Spike's reaction to the virgin info, I think you'll be very pleased, *winks*. I can so see the beating on the chest thing - that had me cracking up, lol. And OH. MY. GOD!!! You're a physicist? God, I love that subject, every time there's anything on dealing with it on TV, I'm glued to the set. I don't have the aptitude to pursue the subject college-wise, but I adore it all the same. And hey - glad you liked the books Carrie recommended for the chapter - hopefully if you read them, you'll enjoy them just as much and drop me a line (email) to let me know what you thought of them when you have a chance. THanks so much for the review darling - huggles and snuggles you tight.

dude! i think you did an excellent job tempering the nervousness with an overwhelming sense of affection and trust, all well marinated in some wicked spicy sexy-ness. it read beautifully.
so glad to see you posting, and to have the chance to read. best wishes and snuggles.
also: most people run screaming from the physicist confession so it was cool to read your response. ;D take care of yourself!

Summary: When Buffy accepts an offer without even realizing she did, she ends up with double the man of her dreams!
Post NFA (off canon, if canon includes the comics).

Note: This is a threesome fic! (Spike/Buffy/William... well, sort of a William)

i love how funny your fics are. there's an affectionate teasing of the characters that never feels mean but is just adorable. like buffy spelling metamorphosis. hee!
of course spike knows what's been going on, he's always more in touch than the rest of them. AND of course he gets buffy mad enough to punch him. that's the spike we know and love!
and william is so sweet!
*swoons*


Author's Response: I saw all your reviews together this morning and haven't stopped grinning since! I'm so very glad you like the way I write my stories. I need humor, and that's one of my major problems with "It Doesn't End With A Wish"; it keeps trying to be written in a lighter tone than I'm aiming for. Thank you so very much for the review, hope you had a wonderful Christmas and an even better New Year's! *huggles*

first half is hotter than the sun! loved william's creative use of 'do you mind'! you also did a great job making an intensely hot fuck be a homecoming.
second half is lovely! their excitement at the possibility of a claim is adorable. and buffy's thought that willow and dawn would protect HER and her two VAMPIRES is super cute.
fortunately, i know you've written the sequel so i'm off to find out what happens next!
thanks for the awesome fic! muah!

Author's Response: And still the face splitting grin won't leave me alone... :-D I'm so very happy you liked it, AND that you went on to the sequel. That story scares me, and I feel like people (except for a few) hate it :-( Thank you so very-very much! *hugs*

Summary: One slight mistake in a spell intended to re-soul Angelus lands Buffy in an alternate universe where no one is who they should be, and nothing makes sense. She’s desperate to return to her home, but when she starts to fall for her new Watcher, William Pratt, she begins to wonder where she really belongs. AU after the events of Innocence.
Winner at the Sunnydale Memorial Fanfiction Awards for Best Episode Rewrite. Currently nominated at the Spuffy Awards for Best General Saga and Best Buffy Characterization.

thanks for the update!

awww! loved this. spike's inner voice was hilarious. and buffy's surrender felt in character.
well done!

Author's Response: Thanks. I'm glad you liked it. :)

Summary: This fic takes place in season 6 of BTVS, picking up directly from the opening scene of Tabula Rasa. It begins with the Scoobies' discussion about Buffy's revelation of being pulled out of heaven and canons off from there, with Willow attempting to cast a truth spell over Buffy. Naturally, the spell goes awry, everyone in Sunnydale is affected and many secrets are revealed throughout the story. Much comedy, drama and passion (between Spike and Buffy) ensues, as the scoobies find themselves trying to save the day - again.

i loved this! the wonder and awe that they both feel are well portrayed. i like that their present strength and status as predator were influenced by their previous stint as prey. i'm interested in finding out the nature of their connection, but the story stands wonderfully on its own.
Thanks for this!
