Loved it :)
Good decision to take the money instead of letting go Dawn. Clever of her (Dawn) to trick Buffy into taking the money.
Good too for Buffy's sake that she could talk about her feelings with her dad.
Author's Response: Thanks! Yeah, as much as she doesn't want his help, she needs the money!

Oooh naked Spike in a pool! Drool...
Glad Buffy had a chance to express all her anger and pain to her dad and also glad Dawn had the sense to accept the money Buffy was being to proud to admit she needed.
I think you've got everyone acting in character, but I hope once they go back to Sunnydale they don't give Hank a second thought. He doesn't really deserve it. IMHO this gesture was too little too late.
Author's Response: Thanks for your comments! I understand your feelings about Hank. I'm torn, honestly. I want her to have some sort of relationship with her dad, but at the same time, I don't think he can EVER patch up the hole he left in his family.

Great chappie. The end was really intense, but Buffy needed to get all that grief and rage out. I always wondered why Hank didn't pay child support for Dawn, he had plenty of money and the state would have made him. I guess it was just the writers making Buffy as miserable as possible.
Loved the pool scene... cause wet, naked Spike in a pool? Totally droolworthy. YUMMY!!
Love the way you keep the updates coming regularly.
More soon please. :)
Author's Response: Thanks Ami! There was a lull in my posting for a couple of days, because I wasn't feeling very well, but I think I'm back on track *knock on wood* and I'm already plunging through Chapter 28! :)

That was honestly beaitiful. You wrote that perfectly i loved it. I hope that now they can maybe start over again and have a relationship that is long overdue.
Author's Response: Aww...Jenn, that's so kind of you! I'm glad you liked it! I'm trying to get the family drama out of the way before the Slayer drama comes in. :)

Glad Buffy confided in Hank about what she went through when Joyce got sick. Can't wait for the next update!
Author's Response: Thanks PhotographyNut! The next chapter is a Christmas chapter...and probably them leaving for Sunnydale. :) Time to get back to the Xander issues, get Giles back in Sunnydale...get the Dana thing going, get the surprise that comes with the claim out of the way...LOTS TO DO!
