*waves hi* I had computer problems and had to stop reading; got it back yesterday but didn't have time to catch up. Will do it now (just in case you're wondering why I stopped reading).

Neat, I wouldn't have guessed that this is the connection. Life and death.
And that I should never interfere in your life, or even look for you. Uh-huh... but now Buffy did just this. *fingers crossed* that everything will work out.
Sounds as if Spike got in trouble when his mom remarried.

Author's Response: I thought that this wouldn't be so obvious connection, and yeah, he got in trouble alright.
