Wow! I love all your writing - it's amazing. The way this fic is going, all i can say is "Way to keep us on the edge of our seats"! : ) This fic is really good and I'm really looking forward to the rest. Thanks.

Even completely on the defensive, Spike's going to kick Riley's ass.

Bith, moron, coward.......Buffy is such an idiot. She should only be allowed to follow her heart henceforth, for her head only mucks everything up.

Okay...that is so not fair! Please update soon! *as in NOW, please!*

God love James! So very happy, even in my slightly inebriated state, to see two chapters waiting for me. And I love the idea of Buffy throwing Riley across a room just in time for him to decide to team up with Angel to eliminate the competition, though a hell of a lot that will accomplish in the long run... I love it. So glad your muse is back.

oh you are like.....so evil!!!!!!!!!! lol. but loved it anyway. i hope spike knocks him out cold or something really violent like that?? was that mean...sorry really can't bring myself to care. i mean, it is riley!! lol. more soon. if this is what jm does for your muse then, i say you should see him more often.

I love it but boy did you leave it at a cliffhanger!!!
I cant wait till the next chappie is posted, i am on the edge of my seat here!!!
Great work, keep feeding the muse :)

WAT U LEFT IT THERE!?!?!?!?! YOURE EVIL!!!! jk but i cant believe u left it there, i really hope that buffy comes or that spike is able to defne himself some how. i LOVE this story and am so happy that u updated. i cnat believe that buffy said that to him, especially after he said that he needed her. i really hope that she comes for him and realizes that she wants to be with him. also i hope that riley gets his ass kicked by either buffy or spike and that everything works out well. PLEASE update as soon as u can, im DYING to read wat happens next. THANX

Glad James got ya back in the mood.. Enjoying.

Love it ! Wonderful story! Can't wait to read the rest!

Thanks for this extremely entertaining chapter. Buffy's confrontation with Ethan was vivid and violent, and I love the way she was snarling at Angel and Riley. She is going to be majorly pissed off that both her exes are conspiring behind her back to get rid of Spike's evil influence. This was a rollicking good read!

Just started reading this from the beginning and it's fab - really enjoying it. Spike needs to get back to Buffy and sort her out before the gruesome twosome do him some serious damage. Oh and James well what can I say except aren't we lucky. I'm going to see him again in 11 days and I'm counting and very excited.

GREAT CHAPTER!!! Any chapter that has Buffy throwing Riley across a room is number one in my book. Here I was thinking that Buffy would revert to 'Spike's a soulless vampire, I can't love him' mentality; I didn't know that she would be more worried that Spike couldn't love her. Silly Buffy, swimming in denial. And STUPID Angel, voicing her worst fears!!! I'm so worried that instead of trying to kill Spike, Angel's gonna convince him that Buffy doesn't love him. If there's anything that'll make Spike skip town, it's that. But man was I cracking up when she first saw Angel. "In my car." Priceless. But many thanks to James in Long Island for refreshing your muse. Can't wait for more!
