Well I will try and not hate Dawn, she really wasn't a fav of mine.....but I like her in a few fics that people of written her into this was a great little chapie.......shows Hank is the bastard I'd still castrate with a happy smile....Joyce, well she can hang in the pit with at least a dozen pit vipers......I think she is just mad that Hank said it first and was looking for a reason to deck her husband, LOL>

Author's Response: Well I'm glad I made you not hate her, that was the goal =D and castaration...now there's a thought... LOL I like your idea for Joyce, too!

Okay, you just have to transmit the story straight from your brain into my head now because I absolutely cannot wait for you to type and update this story! I am really liking this one a lot - I always like your stories, you have a gift for the whole human AU thing that is just wonderful and just as difficult to find. Coming from a stupid family like Buffy does in this story made me really empathize with her plight. And the part where Hank starts calling her names and she is just so shocked, that was well done. I remember the very second I realized the depth of my family's utter contempt and lack of care for me hit me like a ton of bricks. Prior to that it was just a sad background noise, but you can convince yourself that it isn't quite as bad as it seems for years. But then someone will say something or do something so awful, so completely out of sync with normal family or parental care, and it is just like a sledgehammer. The lie you comforted yourself with all along, the hope that perhaps you were overreacting sometimes or they didn't really mean it all is just ripped away and you are left just as Buffy was - devastated. After that comes the eerie calm of knowing you are cut off from them, that they can't hurt you any more because they have revealed their true selves and you have no further expectations. That's if it plays out all the way. Whatever you do next with Buffy is your story to tell, and I can't wait to see where you go from here. But I wanted to tell you that the whole scene struck me so true that it gave me the wiggins. So to speak. :-) Thanks for sharing this one with us. And really, if the brain transmission thing can be managed, I'm right here. :-)

Author's Response: WOW =D Are you sure you don't want to write it? Cuz honestly, you're expressing what I'm trying to say better than I am, lol. Thanks so much for all the wonderful praise, it made me incredibly happy and I enjoyed every word of it, especially since long reviews are usually ones telling me that I suck. I've never quite had that experience with my family, but my mom's incredibly disapproving of pretty much everything I do--such as writing Spuffy. Thanks for saying the scene struck you true, because that's what I'm aiming for, is to really affect you guys and make you feel something other than tired eyes from the words on the screen. Hearing that I managed that is like hearing that Bill Gates wants to give me a billion dollars--indescribably awesome! And the whole brain transmission thing--I'll work on it =D

How sad. I guess I never realized just what a kind, loving dad I had. He would never, ever have called me those horrible names. I did like the little 'almost caught' scene though! Haven't we all been there??? Please, update often! Luv, spuf

Author's Response: lol yes I think we all have...my step-dad would never say that sort of thing, but I think my real dad might...I'm just glad I almost never have to see him. Thanks for the review!

good update but i hope that she gets a chance to talk to spike about what happened with her father

Author's Response: don't worry, she will--there'll be a lot of talking about that, cuz it's of course not normal for a parent to be that awful. thanks for reviewing!

She knew he wasn’t her favorite daughter...She knew SHE wasn't HIS favorite daughter.....is what I think you mean. Very nice chapter. I feel bad for Buffy, because even if we try to deny it, the opinions of our parents mean so much to us.

Author's Response: Gah, I do that sometimes, I'll go to change it. Thanks for pointing it out. And yes, even if you say you hate your parent and you don't give a damn what he/she says, I think we all want our parents' good opinion. Thanks!

Okay, first ill say this chap was amazing. It was very intense although in two very different ways (happy and sad). Secondly i find it great that Dawn is seemingly making an effort. I hope Hank dies and Joyce smartens up lol. You could have Hank run over by a mob of transvestites or something, i think it would be fitting somehow lol. Great update i cant wait for more xxx Linz

Author's Response: awww, thanks =D I made Dawn start to change because I figured the story would be a little less plausible if everyone in Buffy's life was a complete jerk. A mob of tranvestites--LOL!!

No you can put me in as dear Aunt Kim, as I come and beat the crap out of my brother for being a moron....and take Buffy home with me....and no I won't hurt her.....Spuffy all the way in this one. Now Dawn, you'd have to pay me lots and lots of money just to have her visit my house.........LOL

Author's Response: Aunt Kim...gotcha =D

ohh it's family angst not spuffy angst, that makes it better. Wow Hank's an asshole, but im glad Dawn is being less of a cow. take care

Author's Response: Yep, Hank's an asshole, but unfortunately it's necessary. I like family angst better than Spuffy angst, too, cuz Spuffy angst is way sadder =D

Enjoying Buffy & Spike .. definitely hot, but the family thing is quite unnerving.

Author's Response: unnerving but I think necessary. Glad you're enjoying Buffy and Spike =D thanks!

Oh my god, that's so horrible. I feel so bad for Buffy right now. It is so wrong of her father to act like that when she was only kissing. He reminds me of my father and that just makes me hate him even more. I hope Buffy will be okay and that she would still want to try things with Spike. Maybe he could help her. Both of their families suck. Hope you have more soon!

Author's Response: My dad too, that's one of the reasons I wrote Hank like I did. I have this thing about absentee/complete and utter asshole fathers: I HATE THEM. Buffy'll be fine and there will definitely be "trying", lol. Thanks for reviewing!

OH MY GOD!! I hate Hank in this! He was just so mean and awful and did Spike hear any of that?

Author's Response: You'll see =D And yes I hate Hank too, but I had to have him say something really horrible to justify some later stuff. Thanks for reviewing!

Her dad is soooo mean. Oh my god! That whole passage where he's calling her a slut just totally freaked me out it was so sad. I hope Dawn is nice to her from now on. Her parents adore Dawn so maybe if Dawn stands up for her they won't ground her for life.

Author's Response: Is it mean to say I'm glad I freaked you out? Cuz that's what I was trying to do. Hank will get his just desserts, I promise =D

Okay, anyone wanna join me in the castrate Hank club.....Man that bastard needs a good ass kicking.......Can I adopt Buffy, she can come live with me and Spike will be allowed to visit anytime.....and those people who swapped sperm and egg to create her can rot in hell......LOL wow, great Angst wth a light at the end of the tunnel.......

Author's Response: *waves hand in air* ooh, I'll join =D I hate Hank, both in my story and in the show--my own real dad is a complete asshole, if that tells you anything. Hm...maybe I'll put you in the fic...except you might kill Buffy so you can have Spike...LOL. glad you thought the angst was good, I always try to not make it so depressing...thanks for the review!
