Gotta love how clever Xander is, he really handled the Willow situation well... just curious are Willow and Xander leaving the story permanently? And poor Buffy she seems so lost, can't wait for her return to Sunnydale... should be interesting to see how she reacts to Spike dating Dru. Wonderful chapter!

Author's Response: Now now, I cannot divulge my upcoming story secrets. Patience. LOL! Thank you for the wonderful review! X/W will be making more appearances at a later date and Buffy will be back soon. Just trying to work out my time line at the moment. Thanks again!

Crazy Willow is interesting

Author's Response: Thank you. I like her, just find it a bit difficult to write on occasion.

I was thinking about this story earlier when I read one I found out yours I haven't read yet.
Please let Buffy come back soon, don't know if I can take any Dru and Spike stuff.
I miss Buffy.

Author's Response: I can say with all honesty that there will not be a whole lot of the S/D stuff because it makes me gag. So very much with the NO DRU and SPIKE sex scene. Buffy will be back soon, promise. Thank you for the review!

Uh-huh.. time to confess, both for Spike and Giles. Ah, Giles was a watcher before? So he should indeed know some things (or be helpful). ~ Buffy: Nobody wondered why she killed only her husband? And no one else, not even her family.
Looking forward to more, like where Buffy has been.

Author's Response: Buffy will be out of the picture in Sunnydale for a while. We will be clued into what she is up to with little excerpts. Don't want her to feel left out! For the next few chappies, I will concentrate on Spike and the big bad evils in Sunnydale! Thanks for the review!

Just getting better, Tori. I can't wait to see how this one pans out. Will she get her soul for him? Will she be chipped? Will they fall in love? so many possiblitites

Author's Response: Yes, Glynis...there are many possibilites for our dear blonde ones. I don't really want to stick to the orignal show outline, so I may just make up something entirely new. We'll just have to wait and see. Thanks for the review, babe!

I love the role reversal thing. Usually just Buffy and Spike switch but here you have the scoobies and fang gang switch too. Does Spike get a vamp-with-soul like Buffy did(Angel)? I hope he does. It'd be fun. And if he does, plz let it not be Faith. Cordy maybe or Tara or whatever.

Author's Response: I have to agree with you on the entire role reversal thing. Most of the stories you read just have B/S characters switch, which is good but I like to see something different every once in a while. I haven't quite made up my mind about the souled-vamp thing yet. Still playing around with some ideas on that one. Thanks for the review!

This story is really great. I wish you the very best luck at the LSA awards! Please update this soon!

Author's Response: Thanks so much for the great review! I was totally shocked that someone nominated me, it's so cool to be on that list with some of my favorite authors! Next update probably won't be out until next week. Stay tuned...

good update

Author's Response: Thanks!

Wow! You actually put Angel in a Hawaiian shirt... lol! What a wonderfully funny mental image that conjures up. :D Now I'm gonna be wondering if he's also a demon magnet. ;-) Loved the Spike/Angel bantering. Fantastic chapter!

Author's Response: Well, you had mentioned adding that characteristic to Angel and I thought it would be interesting. Thanks for the idea! I am glad that you are enjoying the S/A dialouge. I am so bad at the "speaking" parts of the story but know they are important so I try to get them as good as possible. Thanks again!

Another chapter? Good when I'm late reading, I get more chapters to read this way ;-)
Spike is healing again (and well enough to be up instead of lying in bed). But now with not only his dad, with his watcher around too I guess he would preferred rather to stay in bed for a bit longer *g*

Author's Response: Could you imagine having the both of them upset with you? Darn tootin' I would rather be in bed, hiding from their disapproving glares!

Great chapter. Congrats on your nominations too. I'm trying to figure out what the message said, and where she's going. Oh well, I'll just wait for the next chpater. lol.

Author's Response: The next chappie will be based on Spike's morning after and hopefully will be out by the morning if all goes well! Thanks for the review!

she left what about Spike, wonder when she will meet him again. But on th other hand I am glad she left Willow and Xander they seem to control her.

Please tell me that she didn't turn Riley and is going to where she knows she is.

Loved it, more please.

Author's Response: Patience...patience...patience...also, notice in the last dream sequence that Riley's chest cavity was ripped open. Don't think he is going to be doing much other than pushing up daisies! LoL! I am going to try and get a chapter out tonight, depends on how busy i am at work. Hopefully since it is cold outside w/ a chance of snow that all of the trouble makers will stay inside. Glad you are enjoying the story and thank you for the review!
