That is one of the meanest cliffhangers I have ever been faced with! Puhlease update soon!

Geez, way to make us all cry alot! Well despite the total sadness of it, it was well done and everything, the story is really good, im looking forward to see how they work it all out and what happens with everything. Excellent work, take care

Author's Response: Oh there is more surprises a head...can't tell ya it would ruin the surprise, wink wink....take care.....

Part of the cliffhanger we knew before .. Spike left Buffy for Dru .. or for his son, to save him for Dru. But he still has with Dru... I hope Buffy will let him suffer for a while before she takes him back - but that she does take him back... Looking forward to the next update!

Author's Response: You don't think they've both suffered enough, sniff sniff......hmmmm, next chapter up...tell me if he's suffered enough after this......

Mmm drunken sex flashback was really hot. I really hope someone tells Spike the babies are his.

Author's Response: yes it was hot, and I wonder who will tell him......and how hard it will HIT him, LOL

I know, that most of the readers won't agree with me, but I can't bring myself to feel sorry for him. O.k. it was a difficult situation. I just don't feel that there was no way for him to explain things to Buffy before hightailing out of her life. If he would have stopped to use his brain he would have found a solution. But maybe that's just me and the fact that I really hate people who start acting like headless chicken when faced with problems and creating a total mess in their wake... Enough of me rambling...;-) Your writing is great!

Author's Response: forgiveness is like beauty, where as the beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder, forgiveness lies in their heart. Some give it more freely where some can not find it in their heart to offer it, let alone think it...and I appreciate your review, and hope to hear more from you......

I think the thing that bugs me most about Spike in this story is that he's only thinking about things as they affect him. True, he thinks of Nigel, but he NEVER things of Buffy. That whole last scene was all about his own suffering and how 'he'll never be complete' without her.

Author's Response: Yes, but sometimes its what you have to think about in order to survive, if he really thought about Buffy he might have not been able to do what he felt was right at the time and then lost his son forever.......maybe driving a wedge between them......but then again, it's my muse's fault....I'm not sure how I would have acted in his shoes.....I just listen to my nameless muse. But I'm happy your sticking with it......
