I am loving the wealth of knowledge in this story and in the author notes! Fantabulous! My god William is a patient man! I couldn't handle Buffy and her moods, but William does it flawlessly! Plus he does it without backhanding her at every turn! That deserves an award of some sort!

Author's Response: Huzzah for that! All my research isn't just putting off writing when I'm stuck! Really!

Okay, this was hilarious... "It’s what America is good at. Bringing super-sizing to the world since 1880." :D I missed reading this story so much, and now I can finally pick it up again because I handed in all my uni work. YES! Also, felt really bad for William and the whole Statue of Liberty thing because he's really trying to make it easy for Buffy. Then again, Buffy's reaction is understandable as well. And I really love all those bits of history you incorporate in the story... it makes everything seem very real. Aaah, it's all so well-written. :)

Author's Response: You're too good to me and you have no idea how badly I needed something positive right now. Chapter 30 is kicking my ass! It's the most difficult thing I've written yet. Gah! Anyway, congrats on being finished with your uni work and so glad you liked this chapter.

Yeah! It's still progress for them, even if it's not all the way. She see's how he tries to be so strong for her even when he's nearly as out of his element as she is. Well, maybe not quite as much, but still... And I must say the good doctor's wife seems to have helped a bit too. To say that they were the couple other couples muttered about, pretty much sums it up and how can that not inspire the possibility in her head that maybe they could get back there? A pair so much better at conversing with action, this may be just the right step. :) And though waiting isn't my favorite, I'm glad you decided to give the "next step" a whole chapter. Update soon!

Author's Response: As always, I love to hear your thought BR! I've got just about 6 pages of the next chapter written. My chapters are usually 10-12 pages long. This bit was actually written before George's demise even. So I'm excited to hear what you think about that and if it rings true for the characters. I wanted Buffy to say goodbye to the Crowdners. I'm glad you liked that bit with Jane :) It was her only chance to see what "they" were like as a couple before she lost her memory.

Okay, so...

#1 You ARE evil
#2 I fully hope that you plan on going with Alternative B
#3 You ARE evil ; - )

A great chapter! I love that Buffy is finally starting to get mushy feelings for William. I can only hope that eventually she connects the dots and sees that while William is different from Spike, there is much of William in Spike. She is Season 5 Buffy, right? Spike was definitely starting to show his softer side around that time.

Also, I'll be interested to see what sparked the sex-a-thon (pretty please, let there be one). Is Buffy just sad about George and the current state of her life, and thus, has the need for not so cold comfort? Or, is she starting to have feelings??????

I know I've said it before, but I just LOVE your historical sidebars and the pictures are the best!!!! I'm a big history nerd and just can't get enough. The Statue of Liberty picture was especially cool.

Thanks so much for a great update. Can't wait for Alternative B!!! :-)

Author's Response: 1. Thanks for the review! I never know if I'm cramming in too much history and this is starting to feel like a class. Good to know I haven't crossed the line. 2. I love that you wonder what sparked the whole "jump my bones, William" from her. I think late season 5 time-travel trauma Buffy is a lot like Season 6 back from the dead Buffy. And she may be trying to feel better by getting groiny. But William isn't Spike... so how that might play out is interesting! 3. I am not evil. Not PURE evil. 99 percent? Maybe

Love the period detail and pictures. It really makes your readers appreciate the comforts of today. Buffy being from the future can always tweek her situation by improvising to improve her boredom. Loved reading this chapter look forward to more.

Author's Response: Thanks Vette. I don't want to make the past too brutal, but I can't idealize it either. Glad you're still with me and thanks for leaving feedback

Isn't it a joy when, after you write something, you can find a photo that fits your vision perfectly?? I don't mock your spasms of joy over that! I've had a few of those myself. :O

Loved this line: Buffy offered him a weak smile. “It’s what America is good at. Bringing super-sizing to the world since 1880.” Very funny!

Loved growly William getting them dinner and sweet William taking her to see the arm.

And thank goodness Buffy's come to her senses! I do hope you don't go with option C, however, in your list of possible things to do next! That would be sad and quite evil, really.

Can't wait for more!



Author's Response: Thanks A4S! I really liked that line and it means a lot that someone noticed it. I had actually written the beginning of the next chapter even before George died. It was one of those "sure I'm taking a bath, but I just need to write down 5 pages of this idea!" kinds of things. So I'm getting to that this morning!
