Hee! Loved this chapter. You characterization of Dawn in this fic is perfect...if a bit frightening, lol. I'm absolutely loving this fic and I definitely understand all the earlier controversy that arose from it...you're an incredible writer and I'm simply in awe of all the emotions you've managed to pack into this fic. You've fleshed all the characters out just as well or better than they were in the show, and I care about all of them--even Warren, in that I care that he dies painfully ;) The reviews are going to stop for tonight since i have to drag my butt to bed and then to Illinois tomorrow...but when I get back, I'm finishing what you have so far of this fic and stalking you for updates if it's not finished. (and I mean that in a non-creepy way, honestly) Thanks for giving all of us such an incredibly moving story! *hugs*

Great chapter! I love that Spike is feeling more comfortable around his new 'family' and that they are so determined to help him feel normal again. I think this night at the Bronze will be just what they all need. I have a feeling you are leading up to a VERY good night! :)
