I'm really liking this story .Love Merrick , he makes more sense than Giles , who I thought was too black and white with how he saw demons . Loved the line from "Touched" , I hope it doesn't mean Spike will die again .*sighs* Spuffy luvin' soon please !! Please update as sson as you can , I know things were rough after Ike , glad everythings OK now.

Author's Response: I'm glad you like this story! Merrick was always my favorite watcher (not that crap guy in the series - seriously, where did they get him?) and Giles was definitely one who saw in black and white, no shades of gray. It's a shame really *sigh*. Nope, I can promise Spike won't die in this story - girl scout's honor! Merrick was only giving Buffy a taste of what her future could be like if she didn't change things. Yup, Ike was a mess! I mean, come on! Hurricanes... in OHIO????? Sheesh. Thanks AMI for the review!

This chapter was so interesting. I'm supposed to be studying but I couldn't wait to read your update so here I am. :D

I loved every part of this chapter. I like what they talked about Angel and the Scourge. Loved how Merrick approved of Spike. I most especially loved the use of the scene from Touched. So, yeah, basically, I loved every part. :)

I hope we don't have to wait too long for the next chapter.

Author's Response: Tee hee - studying is overrated ;) YAY! You like the chapter! I'll try not to be so long with the next chapter - sorry! Wuggles

Merrick is very understandable; really more then Giles.
Nice twist with Angel and Darla, very believable.
Loved Merrick making Buffy think about what will happen when the chip stops working; this way she'll prepared and will not doubt in the future.

Author's Response: I always thought Merrick was less rigid than Giles (Merrick is my fav Watcher). I always wondered about Angel and Darla - I mean come on! And yes, Merrick had seen it all and he wanted Buffy to be happy, so he made her consider things that maybe she didn't want to. Thanks Cordy, you're a gem!

Fantastic, emotion-filled chapter, honey! You made me cry, evil woman you. Good thing I love crying when it's for the right reasons, like a good book, a good movie or a wonderful story like this one. I just loved how the chapter played out, the dynamics between Merrick and Buffy, the way he explained things to her and how she accepted those explanations. *happy sigh* I'm really looking forward to how it all is going to play out from here on, although I have the basic the idea, you're truly making it a lot better than the first version. *wuggles* It's a pleasure to help you out in any way I can.

Author's Response: *sniffles with you* When I wrote this scene the first time, I think I was having a bad time in my life - everyone was so weepy! But I'm glad I rewrote it to include more of Merrick's thoughts on several different matters. And the next chapter will include some Spuffy lovin' - YAY! And yes, I love that you add just the right words to make thoughts so much better than they were! Thankee! Wuggles babe!

As I said before - totally snffle-worhty chapter sweety. I LOVED Merrick's sense of humor and how he cut down Angel while buildingt Spike up. Joss could stand to take a few lessons and give SPike more credit, lol. It was a total pleasure beta'ing for you darling - now.............. bring on the spuffy luvin, damnit! Giggles - luv ya babe.

Author's Response: Awww thankee honey! You and Mari made it so! I always liked Merrick's very dry wit in the movie (Vampires of the world beware!). This gave me a chance to play with him! (get your dirty mind out of the gutter!) And yes, SPUFFY groinage in the next chapter! WOO HOO!

Great chapter, as always. It made me want to kick Giles' teeth in, but Xander more than made up for him.

The way things are progressing with the Scoobies I think we'll have a grand ol' time.

And you deserve any and all nominations.

As I told you before, there's so many thing in this chapter I loved, first and foremost Spike. The way he spoke to everyone was so heartfelt and to the point, and at least he got to Xander, Anya and Tara, that's progress. Now Giles and Willow, sadly, are another story. *sighs* How stubborn they can be. *sighs some more* I absolutely loved the conversation between Xander and Spike and I adored that your Anya is so much more than just a woman begging for orgasms. You gave her a voice that Joss didn't. She was so severely underused in the series, same as Tara, but I guess that's what fanfic is all about, righting the things we didn't like. Fantastic update and I can't wait for more!

Author's Response: I loved writing the conversation between Xander and Spike - neither one had much of a male buddy on the series and I felt that at some point (had certain things not happened) they would have become at least pool buddies. I hate the way is protrayed in a lot of fics as only asking or talking about orgasms... she was a freakin 1000 yr old demon, hello? KNOWLEDGE people! Thanks for all your help dearest, couldn't have done it without you!

You know how much i loved Spike in this chapter. He really gave it good and honest to the lot of them. Yeah, yeah, I know they can't touch him without hurting Buffy too, but still, I love a wise Spike, no filter on his mouth. And woo hoo for the Xander bonding - we usually don't get to see that much, and you did a bang up hilarious job of it my friend. Loved this chapter, still a tad worried about Willow and Giles coming around, but of course have faith in ya. Luv ya babes, bravo on an excellent chappy.

Author's Response: Yeah, no one was ever honestly with anyone except Spike. The voice, crying in the wilderness! And i hate Spike with a filter! I can't do evil Xander, so he got to be mildly annoying Xander - hence bonding with Spike over comics. YAY! Keep worried about Giles - he won't get it until "someone" knocks some sense into him ;) Love ya my sista, you rock!

“He has a point…and my God, I didn’t just say that,” Xander said, recognizing the logic, but somewhat disgusted with himself. --- *snigger*

“My God, you’re thicker than Angel’s broody forehead. I’ll use simple terms then, Watcher.” --- *cackle*

He was tearing up at this point, all his frustrations pouring out at the people that had caused Buffy so much grief. He sobbed into his hands as his body shook. “She was my salvation… my bright, golden light. Now, she’s barely half a person.” --- *sob*

*sob*

*sob*

YAYYYY! Awwwwww!!!!

Hmmm....!!!!


I LOVE the chapter, the fic and you. And thank you. For many things. Including slapping me upside the head when needed and opening my bloody stubborn eyes.

*wugles*

Author's Response: So let's see... first you sniggered, then you cackled and now your sobbing? Woman, are you moody or what??? LMAO And no thanks are necessary for the slap up side the head - it's free of charge :D ITYS!

Author's Response: I tried to figure out what two guys would bond over in a short amount of time... BINGO! It was either alcohol (not available), porn (DEFINITELY not available) or comics... YES! Thanks for the review Mary!

“I-” he started but then zeroed in on the girl who quietly slipped into the restaurant. “I have everything I need,” he finished, watching Buffy approach his table and slide into the booth. AWWWWWWWW!!!!! *melts*

Wow. Thank you very much for mentioning me in the AN, it's really an honor.
The meeting itself has gone great for our couple - yes, I consider willow slying into a wall, Giles with a broken wrist and Xander slapped upside the head to be great.

And then allong comes Merrick...

This was such a wonderful chapter (even if that end note is more than a little evil, especially after what just happened). I loved, loved, LOVED the way Buffy told Spike and all the others that she loves him. :D Wanted to slap Xander silly, but even more so Giles and bratty Willow. Good God, but you captured her so perfectly as she was in season 6.

On the other hand, I adored Tara, and Anya. I'm so glad you gave them both a much bigger part in your story than we saw in the series. Especially in Anya's case, I feel she was severely underused. Just think of all the demon knowledge she must have after living a 1000 years? *shakes head* But well, I guess that's what fanfiction is all about righting all the wrongs. ;) And you're doing it beautifully with this marvelous story. I'm really looking forward to more, cariño! *huggles*

Author's Response: Evil, moi? Learned from you, dearest! hehehehe. Glad I captured the characters as I didn't before hand. And yes, I think Tara and Anya were underused in the series, so I'm making up for it. Thanks for all your help, couldn't have done it without you!
