I could have bet I'd reviewed this, grrr!!!

Totally loved this chapter, and couldn't agree more with Buffy.

As unholy alliances went, she could have done a lot worse.:D

*hugs*

Author's Response: Thank you! Yep, Buffy made herself a great deal. :)

I love Spike's vaguely threatening candle purchase, and Buffy's prophecy. I'm so glad you've updated again and can't wait for the next chapter!

Author's Response: Thank you! I'm glad you liked it!

Buffy calling Giles out for endangering her was wonderful. She had every right to be angry, and in this story she's a grown woman, used to making her own decisions and depending on herself. Giles believably doesn't hold as much sway with her as in canon and their distance gives Buffy a lot more power in the relationship.

I also loved Spike's implied menace even in something as innocuous as shopping. Giles' reaction and tattling to Buffy were both stellar and I loved Buffy's nonchalance about the entire incident. Giles may have felt threatened, but that's his problem.

What the heck did Dru see that caused her to burn Darla's clothes and go completely nuts? I can't wait to find out.

The wrestling was a lovely, light scene in yet another vivid and entertaining chapter.

Author's Response: Yeah, Buffy is going to be angry at Giles for a while. She doesn't have quite the relationship she had with Giles in canon, and while that doesn't make the betrayal as hurtful, it also gives her less emotional incentive to patch things right up. I'm glad you liked Spike's shopping! Well, Dru was burning Darla's clothes because it's a perfectly logical Dru thing to do, LOL. Darla burned, so Dru would send her clothes to her by burning them. What she saw however, is coming up soon. Thanks for reviewing!

Another absolutely fantastic chapter! I loved the scene with Spike and Giles in the Magic Box. Spike's character is always so much fun to watch. I also really enjoyed how the prophecy said she would make an unholy alliance with dark forces to prolong her life and then she's sitting there with Spike's fangs in her neck and is all like: Well, hey. This certainly counts as unholy. It was humorous to me because while it is on the surface "unholy", it really isn't. Thanks for the update. It was superb.

Author's Response: Thank you! Yeah, Buffy's making a deal with Spike looks pretty bad on the surface, but prophecies are tricky like that. :) I'm glad you liked the part with Spike and Giles! Thanks for reviewing!

"It wasn’t until the next night, when Spike was sinking his teeth into her jugular that it hit her.

Buffy brought her hand up to the back of his head.

As unholy alliances went, she could have done a lot worse."


Love that moment of realization. Really are many much worse unholy alliances than a vampire that loves you unconditionally. An amazing chapter. Glad to see that Buffy and Giles do seem to be working through things a bit. But I've got to wonder if Giles further research will bring more details to light. That could be interesting. Amazing chapter. Thanks for sharing.

Author's Response: Thank you! I'm glad you liked it! Yes, Buffy really couldn't have done better when she picked Spike. Though Giles might not see it that way. Thanks for reviewing!

Sweeeeeeeeeeeet - I like the unholy alliance angle. And how cute was the wrestling match, hee hee. Angel being out of town does not sound of the good if he plans to return. Hmmm, I can't even begin to guess what you may have up your sleeve for that one. Looking forward to the next update darling - thanks for the awesome chappy. Huggles.

Author's Response: Oh, Angelus being out of town is not good... Glad you liked the unholy alliance, LOL. It sounds so bad in the prophecy book, but it's really not. Prophecies are never what you expect. :) Thanks for reviewing!

Awe :) Loved their (pillow/tickle) fight :)
Angelus? What Dru saw sounds bad. Like as if she has found out something they can use against Buffy.
Ah Buffy came to the same conclusion I did - unholy alliance = Spike. Because other people just see him as a vampire.
Looking forward to more.

Author's Response: Glad you liked Buffy and Spike's playing! And yep, the deal she made with Spike is her unholy alliance. Thanks for reviewing!

Gotta like those unholy alliances and a longer life with Spike .. LOL

Enjoyed the update. Love a Buffy that can stand up to the Watcher /Council cr+p. And wondering what Dru told Angel that finally got his attention... a rebirth?

Author's Response: Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it! Buffy made a good bargain indeed...
