“I recall some Tupperware in the kitchen, sweetheart. All you'd need to do is burp the lid and he's fresh for another couple centuries.”

That is PERFECT SPIKE! Actually, you've got Spike down pat all the way through the story, but that one made me laugh! I'm happy he at least hasn't lost his snark! Yay for snarky, sexy Spike! I still wonder if he might still have his strength, he really hasn't been tested in a fight, so I'm still hoping for that. I like your explaination for his lack of a 'woe-is-me' case of the broodies or crazies. I actually agree that the crazy isn't really needed just because he got a soul. (I had my Spike simply blame Angel for his past mis-deeds and lay all the guilt firmly on ole broody-pants. Dru might've turned him, but it was Angel that turned him into a monster).

Willow/Xander engaged!? Really!? Again I hope that Willow didn't plant a seed in Xander's brain! That annoucement should clear the way for Dav and Giles.

I did realize that the love scene in the last chapter was meant to feel 'wrong' ... you did it well! I'm also glad to hear that was the lowest Giles will fall, I was getting a bit worried about the old chap.

Author's Response: That is the biggest compliment you could give me about the Spike voice. I can hear him saying it in my head when I write. Glad you can, too.

Nice to see that Angel finally got a tiny bit of respect, however much it is or isn't deserved. And Xander and Willow finally seem to have grown up a bit. Good thing they are finally taking it to the next level. Update soon!

Author's Response: Glad you liked the part with Angel. I think you're going to hate me when you read the next chapter--Willow changed Xander's mind with magic.

I was shocked but not terribly sad when Giles killed Angel but this chapter actually made me mourn his loss. You were able to really portray Buffy's loss in a sensitive way that made it approachable and real to me as a reader. I was able to see his lost chance at redemption.

And what is up with the end of this chapter?! Xander was ready to break up with Willow and now their engaged? Something a little fishy there. A lot fishy.

And now that I think about it, everyone has their passionate times, but they seem to be doing it an awful lot at really bad times in small windows of opportunity.

Author's Response: I'm so glad this chapter could make you feel Buffy's loss. I debated about where to put the Giles/Dav chapter--who should have the last word on Angel's death. It seemed right to give the final say to Buffy. Willow went in Xander's mind and changed it manually. She magicked his brain so he would make a decision.

MAJOR points for the poetry bit. That's my Achilles heel, and Charles Baudelaire is one of the best, without a doubt.

Spike was very in character! A bit testy for obvious reasons but yielding at the end and helping Buffy out even though she didn't ask him to. Very heartfelt chapter all around!!

Author's Response: Glad you liked the poetry! It means a lot that Spike felt in character. I thought Angel deserved a send off of some kind.
