I totally loved that bit on pullman porters!! I love history trivia, so this got me all excited. :D A tremendous chapter with Buffy being her funny inappropriate self, poor William suffering the case of UST and Billy waking up buried in horse shit. I couldn't have asked for more!

Author's Response: Yay! Glad you're still diggin' Billy! And I feel for William too. Thank you again for your feedback

“Apparently your mother could.” William bit out. “Twice.”

LOL!!! Go William! Oh, I love how you've corrupted him! Bravo!

That Pullman car bed looks like a head-injury waiting to happen! LOL! Two people are supposed to sleep in that bunk? Esp the upper? OMG! They best not move or kick or turn over in their sleep! Very enlightening! Of course, Buffy and William will have no problem - they only need one spot on the bed ... :)

Of all the wonderful words in this chapter, I must pick tarnation as the CREAM OF THE CROP! LOL! Loved BtK's voice you have. You've been living in the south or midwest longer than you let on, yeah? Uh-huh. .. just PRETENDING to not like tractor songs ... now we know the truth!

Second best line: Being dead was no excuse to ignore good hygiene. LOL! Very true!

And then, of course, you must leave us worried and fearful ....

“We have a train to catch, my William. We have to kill a slayer and fulfill our date with destiny,” she said, as incomprehensible as ever.

Hopefully, Dru & William will eat the Walrus brothers by mistake. They would stick in their gullets.

Great update!



Author's Response: P4Spike - well I grew up in Wyoming so that cowboy mindset is pretty accessible. When talking to my sister on the phone, I hear lots of "gol-dangs" etc :) She isn't a vampire nor a gunslinger (THAT I KNOW OF!) So glad you're enjoying Billy. I loved the idea of him picking his teeth with a knife and feeling kind of classy for doing so :) To ease your fears, maybe that train isn't headed where you think it is. I don't believe Buffy is the slayer any longer...
