My favorite part
“You don’t have stay with him, Dru. You don’t have to—to be with him. Not anymore. He’s a bloody liar and a bastard. He uses you.” He gripped her arm a little more tightly and added, “Who takes care of you, kitten? Does he? Does he ever give a damn about any of us except Darla?”
A soft light came into her eyes, and he knew she was finally beginning to come around. “You take care of me. My William…my Spike. My shadowy knight. I knew you would take care of me, and you do.”
Cause it shows their almost brother and sister like comradery in being both tortured by Angelus and taking care of one another and just breaking off on their own a little. Hopefully Angelus will grow tired of Spike's battles and fights and just let them go off on their own then be bothered with Spike or maybe he gets souled and then wants to be free of them. Hummmm now really need another chapter ((evil laugh))
Author's Response: One thing I love about those two characters is that both William and Drusilla were sensitive and good hearted people before they were turned. I think this is why Dru sought him out for a mate, and also why he came to love her (romantic love on the show, a more familial love in my story). I'm glad you are enjoying the dynamic between them. As always, thanks for taking the time to review. :)

The sweet luxury of a mine shaft!!!
It's funny how A. is so big and bad and evil and yet he runs from the mob and fight and I do not trust Darla I think shes got a plan or something or just wants Dru and Spike gone.
Author's Response: Darla told Spike that in hopes that he would seek out the slayer (which, of course, he promptly does). Mostly, she just wants to be rid of him, but she probably also is hoping he will get himself staked, thus permanantly ridding herself and Angelus from the thorn in their sides. Thanks so much for your review. :)

I'm glad your showing how Dru has a underlying kind of hate towards Angelus even in her insanity she still remembers what he did to her friends and family before he turned her and so often writers over look that in their story writing. Excellent new page here I'm looking forward to Rome.
Author's Response: Thanks so much for the review, inkstained. I always love hearing your thoughts on the story. :)

My Apple Jack and Forward to Time Past this is turning into a good morning. Ooooooh Spike took Drusilla with him and they just took off and now I'm wondering if Ang. and Darla will follow cause I kinda got the vibe Darla was setting Spike up for this trip just so she could go there and maybe Spike would get himself killed off.
Author's Response: You're exactly right. Darla wanted to get rid of Spike any way she could ... and if he gets himself staked by the slayer, I doubt she will care very much. I'm glad you liked the chapter. Thanks for the review. :)

LOL LOL LOL LOL
LOved the shocked look on Angelus face! Best scene!
Author's Response: I'm glad you liked it. Thanks for the review. :)

I really like the way you are evolving William into Spike. It's hard to make this convincing, since the change is usually attributed to the demon, not to decisions by William. You're doing a very convincing job of explaining this process. Thank you!
Author's Response: Thank you so much for the review, Pin. I'm glad you're enjoying the story. :)

wonderful, I love the way you portey Spike's history
looking forward to more
Author's Response: Thank you so much. :) I'm trying to post about once a week, so it shouldn't be too long until an update. I hope you enjoy it when it arrives.

Thank you for the update!!!
Great re-working of the mine scene. It was hilarious when they talked about Spike’s North London, amalgam of an accent.
So interesting that even though Buffy is not mentioned explicitly, she remains a glaring/blistering presence in the story. Wonder if Drusilla saw Buffy (blistering sunshine?) in his mind, not the Italian Slayer. I wonder if he will ever come to suspect at all that Elizabeth was a Slayer once he learns more about them and meets some of them.
Anyway—just wanted to say I’m really enjoying this story.
Author's Response: You're right. Even when he struggles to forget her, Buffy remains very much in Spike's thoughts and his motivations. I'm glad you liked the chapter. Thanks so much for the review. :)

grat update!!!!
this it is the birth of a true worriwr!, spike is not scared to him to deat, savors and enjoys the flavor the fight, it sees the death like a lightening, to perhaps meet with Elizabrth? He makes fun of of the fear of Angelus, makes fun of of a very sensible and masculine thing: so feared, mentioned and deceived the so large one of the penis, this is something very falico, to make ridicule of this between men, is as much as to violate, to humiliate and to offend at the same time, a very delicate subject between masculine prides!
I have observed that in this update, to make use of original dialogos of the Cannon, this brings another thing to my mind, in the fisical and of behavior descriptions of spike, always we used parametros pertaining to the actor who I interpret it (james (James Marsters) the til of the head, to bend an eyebrow even the outbursts of laughter, during a conference, Joss Wedon declare, that almost all ideocincaias of Spike was contributed by James, in my opinion he made a exelente work, but this does not give you a little freedom, to create differences? after all, your Spike, does not have to be the same one of James
continues working like thii, you write wonderful! i love your novel
p.d. and again, sorry by my english
Author's Response: Don't worry about your English. I know what you mean, and I really appreciate your sharing your thoughts with me. :)

Glad to see an update so soon. :-) I love how you've developed the relationship between Spike and Drusilla, and I'm looking forward to learning what will happen to them now that they've split from the group.
Update soon, please!
Author's Response: Thank you so much for the review. I'm glad you like it. :)

Date: 05/06/2007 - 07:10 pm Title: Chapter Thirty-Four
yah another chapter! I'm not surprised the others ran. can't wait for more!
Author's Response: I'm glad you liked it. Thank you. :)

Date: 05/06/2007 - 06:55 pm Title: Chapter Thirty-Four
The story is great, but when is Spike going to get back to Buffy?
Author's Response: As I said in the author's note at the beginning of Part II, Buffy won't reappear until Part III. We're about halfway through Part II now, so it shouldn't be a great deal longer. Thanks for the review. :)

Date: 05/06/2007 - 06:52 pm Title: Chapter Thirty-Four
Oh I love it
Author's Response: I'm glad you do. :)

Date: 05/06/2007 - 05:42 pm Title: Chapter Seven
Well if you don't understand a lot a play can be boring. Buffy got herself occupied with other things *g*.
Too bad Anne had problems again; seems it was too cold. Ah William is worried because of Buffy but he doesn't dare to show it (my guess). ~ Looking forward to more soon.
Author's Response: Your guess is entirely correct. I'm glad you liked the chapter. Thanks for reviewing. :)

Date: 05/06/2007 - 05:24 pm Title: Chapter Six
Buffy is defending Anne against William. I can see why both are doing that (wanting Anne to stay/go), both are worried about her. Good she explained that to William.
Author's Response: Thank you for the review. :)

Date: 05/06/2007 - 04:56 pm Title: Chapter Five
Heh heh Buffy scared William a bit. Buffy had a lot to think about. At last she isn't in danger to be thrown out again. And William having troubles sleeping? I guess because of this mother, worries can do that, don't let you sleep.
Author's Response: Thanks for reviewing. :)

Date: 05/06/2007 - 04:40 pm Title: Chapter Four
Good to see Buffy so happy (as far as she can under the circumstances.) I wonder if she'll have problems later because she gets favored. Oh and she knew with the first look who William was. There I wondered if Buffy would recognize him. *g*
Author's Response: Couldn't mistake those eyes and those cheekbones, now, could she ;) Thanks for reviewing. :)

Date: 05/06/2007 - 04:26 pm Title: Chapter Three
Oh.. that why Buffy got a job, because she was used to take of her mum. If Buffy is right about how servants get treated by the rich she can be happy that the Hartleys have 'new money'.
And getting to the 'right' family (William). Awe, Buffy likes Anne because she reminds her of Joyce? No wonder Spike felt the same way (about Joyce).
Author's Response: To me, Spike seemed to be seeking a "mom" on the show (maybe to make up for the one he lost in LMPTM). He went to Buffy's house, an angry and violent "monster", and yet as soon as she showed him kindness, he broke down completely. Let he mother him and give him hot chocolate while she listened to his problems. Joyce didn't seem a lot older than him, but I always thought his affection for her was very childlike and sweet. Thanks for the review. :)

Date: 05/06/2007 - 10:49 am Title: Chapter Two
Well that's not an easy place where Buffy is. Only one month and she has to go no matter what. All is foreign to her. And not a friendly face? Then Willow should hurry up to get her back.
Author's Response: Thanks for the review. :)

Date: 05/06/2007 - 09:53 am Title: Prologue/Chapter One
Can't tell you when I'll be able to read again UT I'm starting today :)
Prolog: Oh it was Willow's fault that Buffy was hit by the spell even when it was by accident.
Ch. 1: Oh right, Buffy's 2001 clothes aren't proper for England 1879. Could have been worse if she wore less than that, like in summer. The cop talked about something like an asylum I guess. Only chance Buffy has for now.
Author's Response: I appreciate your taking the time to read it at all. I hope you like it and thank you for reviewing. :)

Date: 05/03/2007 - 02:51 pm Title: Chapter Thirty-Three
Great new page I was down for him before but now I have hope. Hope in his evil? LOL
Anyways this is wondeful writing and I'm dying for more!
Author's Response: I'm glad you liked it. Thanks for reviewing. :)

Date: 05/03/2007 - 12:14 pm Title: Chapter Thirty-Three
Oh this was fantastic!!!
More soon please! pretty please?
Author's Response: I'm glad you liked the chapter. Many thanks for taking the time to review it. :)
