this second chapter for me was a little choppy.... the chapter didn't seem to flow though I could see where you were going with it. but take it with a grain of salt this is from a non writer

I first want to address the author, I have contacted you personally about the formatting of your story, as someone else recommended, get a beta and do better proofreading. As I said in the email this slipped through with one of our mods because it would not fly with me. I did fix the spacing issue and the warnings. Rape should have been a warning now it is. I will be personally checking your stories from now on, so please get a beta to look over them before you post them.

Now to the 'anonymous' reviewers, if this story is not your cup of tea because you feel the author isn't writing a particular character the way 'you' want them written or 'you' feel they should be written, well you have two options 1. DON'T READ THE STORY and 2. WRITE YOUR OWN STORY THE WAY YOU WANT IT.

This author clearly stated in their summary that this was 'their' version of the episode of Villains. Constructive criticism is well and fine and I think helpful, but chastising any author because they don't share or participate in your Spuffy vision won't cut it.

As stated in our rules, 'Spuffy' don't mean Spike and Buffy have to be fluffy and romantic, they can hate each other, Spike doesn't always have to be making moon eyes and being Buffy's door mat, Buffy doesn't have to keep giving Spike a pass she can do her duty and dust him...So long as they're the central characters in the story Spike and Buffy can do whatever they want to and for each other.

So in your rewrite, Spike actually raped Buffy??? I ask because that NEVER happened in the show, so a warning that you were going make Spike a rapist would've been prudent. Particularly since most Spike fans would not appreciate that at all.

I also recommend a beta because whoa.

Will You actually continue this? I like the fact that Spike is not cutting Buffy any slack. BTW, what rape??

Author's Response: It is where Riley came back with a wife and he caught buffy sleeping with spike. after buffy told spike she doesn't wanna sleep with him anymore he raped her in the bathroom.

Honestly, I find this fic kind of disturbing. Spike tried to RAPE Buffy. He attacked someone who trusted him (regardless of what she says), turned her into a victim, and then ran off. And this almost feels like it's sugar-coating it, ignoring that unforgivable act (Spike doesn't even cite that as the reason he's leaving!), and by the end, Buffy's claiming responsibility for her own attempted rape! Buffy doesn't feel like Buffy, and Spike doesn't feel like Spike, either, because he doesn't seem to care at all that he hurt her.

I understand that this is a tough subject to tackle and I admire your willingness to try, but this isn't the way to do it.
