Okay, I don't know if this is the third or fourth time I'm reading this, but I do know that long long ago, in a galaxy far far away before this site when down, I was following this story. So yayness, I get to read it alllll over again. So very excited to see that your updating it. (tsk tsk, it's been three months, howver i'm just as pleased to see the last date be in 2005!) Now, about the story. "Spike smiled and gripped the railing and slowly made his way up the stairs." Cocky guy, ain't he? I love Spike. Great story, for the 20,000th time! :)
