Great to have an update - what you are doing with all the characters and this new realm is a pleasure to read. You have created another terrific world for The Buffyverse characters to inhabit and for FF community to enjoy - THANKS MUCH

Hope that you will be able to update very soon again.

Author's Response: Thank you nmcil, it's comments like that, that keep me going, however slowly. New chapter up tomorrow if my internet access co-operates.

So happy to see more of this!

Ahnja and Andii are perfectly in character and so funny. Pot roast with marshmallows indeed.

What a cruel place to leave us hanging though!

Author's Response: Yup am the cruellist. Glad you liked the dialogue between A & A, had to really concentrate on Ahnja's character so am pleased that it worked for you.

Enjoyed this update with all of its detail. Ennico's attempts to seduce Buffy are highly entertaining bringing out Spike's possessive side. Look forward to more!

Author's Response: Ennico is a bit mischievous isn't he. Deliberately provoking Spike perhaps? Thank you Vette.

I love this story, I hadn't seen the updates for awhile so was' pleased to get a number of chapters in one go!! Can't wait for more.

Author's Response: thanks PJ, I hope this next chapter doesn't slip under your radar.

This chapter had so many good scenes in it, and the dialogue throughout was great too. I also simply loved Ahnja's and Andii's appearance... lol! Wonderful update!

Author's Response: I really sweated over those two so am pleased that they worked for you. Another long chapter on the way.

Author's Response: Was your cat walking over the keyboard when you wrote this? ;) Thank you jamies_lady.

ROTFL!!! Another awesome chapter! I LOVE Andii. He is hilarious. And Ahnja! “You’re right, it does suit me...although I am glad that I ignored your suggestion of not wearing any undergarments, and crossing and uncrossing my legs in front of our guests.” Hahahaha! I wonder what else Andii thought of Basic Instinct!

I also laughed out loud at:
“Great, why don’t you sign my rump with a cattle-brand while you’re at it?”

Annoyed that she was reacting so badly towards his marks of affection, Spike retorted, “Well, since you’re being a complete cudder, you only have to ask!”

Wonderful work again. So glad you're still working on this fic. *sends your muse hugs to write faster!* :)

Author's Response: You picked out my favourite bits, thank you. I'm relieved that you got the film reference, I forget that most readers will probably be younger than me and may not have seen it. Thanks also from my muse for the hugs, they didn't make her work any faster but she felt a lot better for them.

As she arched her back before him like the figurehead on a ship’s prow, he bowed down his head to drive the waves against her once more. Gorgeous imagery right there.

And Faythe, bless her for bringing some foresight into the story! Oh yes, Buffy, you just might regret taking so long to give him a chance if you lose him, especially with the spooky prophecy in the works. I assume spooky, because you cliff-hangered it like some kind of evil temptress.

And Yay! Andrew and Anya!

Author's Response: I've never been called an evil temptress before. I like it! For someone who had never read romance novels until recently (for research purposes only of course) I seem to be making up for lost time, so I'm pleased you liked the ships prow stuff. At least it wasn't a train and a tunnel (smirks).
