OMG! THAT last bit was a bomb I didn't quite expect ya to drop on us! Great start! Can't wait to see where else this goes!
Plus, you're easing my post-Chosen (and/or post-NFA) jonesing. It's a craving I can't seem to help nor seem to get enuff of! But thanks for the appetizer to start, for now.
Interesting to ix-nay the NFA/whole of AtS S05, both Buffy AND Angel (well, and Spike's too) S08 & S06 comics seasons too. But then again, those aren't such losses either. Any reason, in particular, that you decided not to go the AtS S05/WR&H route? (other than getting to keep a smarmy-mouthed Cordelia alive and mouthy, and not getting a 'Drop-dead Fred'? And giving Wesley back more than a ghost of a chance?
I always DID think it made WAY more sense for Buffy & the new Slayers/SITs to go hole up for a while at Angel's Hyperion than it did to head for Rome of all places---whch obvously was just a ploy for a story's plot and a way to keep BtVS OUT of Angel the Series.
I mean, WTF is he doing w/all that space/all those rooms anyway???
Thanx for the start of what seems to be an interestng start to a (hopefully long) fic.. Am looking forward to it!

Author's Response: Yay! I'm glad you like the beginning! I have so much more planned and I hope you stick until the end! Yup, there is a reason for crossing them over into the Hyperion with Angel, but I can't tell you that, heehee! It has something to do with my sequel to this, so its all hush hush lol. I need Cordy in it for a special reason and same with Conner lol. And yep to the Fred and Wesley, they're soo cute! lol Thats what I thought about Buffy going there insted of Rome too, but then again, it did work out for Joss, I suppose. I wish that Buffy and hre gang did make a special appearance in 05 though, it all ended WAY to prematurely lol. It will be a long fic, or more like a longish saga. I have at least three parts planned out, and who ever reads is in for a bumby/funny/romantic ride! I hope you enjoy the rest. Thanks for reviewing!

Great first chapter :D I felt bad for Spike, that he killed that woman, but I understand why you did it.

Angel and Lorne's fight was very funny :D

I enjoyed! :)

Author's Response: Thanks! I'm glad you understood, I was sort of worried some people might not understand, but it seems like they got it. Heehee, glad you enjoyed the Angel Lorne fight, that was actually PB's idea lol. Glad yu enjoyed!

I guess when being a slayer you won't die if you drink too much. Just a thought that came in my head.
Wow Angel knows how to torture Lorne. ;)
But so much to empathic demon/client confidence, huh?
Not a good reading for Buffy Lorne did. But Lorne doesn't know Buffy well to think she'll stay away from Spike. I think she won't.
Hope she can get Spike back without destroying the world.

Author's Response: lol, very true. They do have higher tolerance for just about everything, so why not alcohol too? Eeeek, yup, that is a form of punishment I wouldn't be able to take for long. Hope you lie the rest! Thanks for reviewing!

Ok... this is just evil of you. I swear missy if you don't post the next chapter up pronto I'll... well I'll... do something evil! lol

Author's Response: lol Glad you liked. More is coming soon, so hold back on the evilness =P Thanks for reviewing!
