Oooh the plot thickens??? William is alive? Hallelujah!!! But, why?? Not complaining, but wasn't turning him Dru's plan? Is she confused cuz she already has a William? What is going on? How traumatized is our poor William going to be? Argh! You must update immediately. I can't wait for the next chapter!!!! *imagine pitiful head slam to table in defeat*

And I loved this part: “Do you always understand everything you say?” - “Yes, but I must listen attentively.” That was pure Oscar! I loved it. I love the dynamic you have for them and I love his pet name for her. Great job... but I MUST have more.

Ugh! It's driving me crazy. What is Dru's plan? (Presuming of course that she has one) AND... he's alive, alive right? You're not just tricking us and he's really a beat up vampire now????? Can't wait for the next installment!!! Thanks again.

Author's Response: Um! The next chapter is written and at the betas! I always have different feelings about the chapters. Some I really look forward to, others I kind of dread. This next one is kind of pivotal and I have been thinking about it for a few months. I hope you like. And I think you're right. William (assuming he's alive and I didn't do that fake out that you think I might have done) would be quite traumatized, I think!

Aaaah, what a devious cliffhanger! So eager to read more. Are Dru and Billy still around? Can't wait to find out and also... poor William. He just keeps finding himself in all sort of crappy situations. If that doesn't create great conflict and angst, I don't know what does. :D Again, an amazing job. Really, truly enjoyed the chapter and the quirky presence of Oscar.

I remember telegraphs! They still sold them at post offices when I was little though hardly anyone used them. This makes me feel old even though I'm only 21. lol

Author's Response: Cool that you remember telegrams! I once sent a fake one. Well, it was a real telegram to a businessman in my hometown, but it was from "GOD". It's a long story :) You have to love telegram speak. The Dru and Billy question will be answered. It's at the betas now. Thanks so much for your enthusiasm and support EoR :)

Oh man! You really had me worried that William had been turned and she was gonna find William the Bloody instead! Of course, your reply to my last review has me terribly worried, as well. Apparently, this doesn't end well. I'm on pins and needles now.

I LOVE how you've written Oscar - very witty! Awesome job!! I guess they don't have any codes for punctuation on telegrams, huh? Do they use Morse code or what for telegrams? Hmmm ... I guess I don't know how those worked back then.

Another wonderful chapter which had me holding my breath nearly the whole time.

Author's Response: P4S - Well, not to say it doesn't end well! Sorry about that. It's that ... people complained about how "Yours, Wtilliam" ended and they'll complain about this too. That's ok. I do think most people will be satisfied by the conclusion and that's all I can say without spoiling. I'm so happy you like Oscar. I admit, while writing this I've watched every Oscar thing I can find on netflix and youtube. The man was a joy, albeit a tragic one. Thanks so much for the feedback.

LMAO at the Author's Note. GREAT CHAPTER STOP CANNOT WAIT TO READ MORE STOP

Well done, Puddin. Well done indeed. I raise my bottle of Polygamy Porter to your mad ritin' skilz.

You've successfully drawn a portrait of an increasingly desperate Buffy who is facing the battle of her life with so much riding on its outcome. Her William is still human--and will be the stakes in her upcoming fight with Dru and Mr Bonney.

Looking forward to more soon.

Author's Response: Thanks. I'm bursting to let spoilers go, but I cannot! The upcoming battle scene is something that is pivotal, as you can tell and has everything to do with Billy the Kid's place and why he landed in the tale to begin with. :) It's still a few days from being ready, but soon I hope! Thanks for the feedback!

“Do you always understand everything you say?”

“Yes, but I must listen attentively.”

Love Oscar. Kind of like a more upscale old timey Giles. And Never, Never did I anticipate poor William would be alive!! To say if that is a merciful thing or not, I can't quite, but she's got him. For how long, and what do those vamps plan on next, I suppose I shall just have to wait. Nearing the end is something I anticipate and wish wouldn't quite come so soon. It's been and continues to be an amazing ride. :) Update soon!

Author's Response: BR, you've been such a loyal reader and thoughtful reviewer. I've been bothered by something - by an earlier something I said that made it sound like this tale will have an unhappy ending. I meant to say that *some* readers will dislike the ending, just as some readers disliked the ending of "Yours, William." I don't think most readers will dislike this ending and I don't think you will. I certainly don't dislike it. So, no worries. (And if you DO dislike my ending, I expect to hear from you as I learn a lot that way) ~~ I'm 3/4 finished with the next chapter and I'm terribly excited about it. I haven't felt this way about a chapter since the ending of "Yours". Hope to update very soon!

Love the telegram speak! Keep going, you have lots of us checking every single day for updates!

Author's Response: Thank you! Wonderful to hear from a new reader! (Well, new for me, cause I didn't know you were reading it!)

Argh! I await more with baited (or is it bated) breath. What kind of breath is that anyway? Is it fishy? Sorry, I digress. Awesome chapter. I cannot wait for Buffy to kick Dru's skanky ass.

Author's Response: Giving absolutely no spoilers, I will say that some bad assery goes down. So, I was curious. Turns out Shakespeare used "bated breath" first - and it was a shortened version of "abated" or lowered. So ... like holding your breath!

Thank you for the quick turnaround. Totally meant to enter a review for the previous chapter, but I think I was too heartsick about William to make myself do it... kept procrastinating and never did get to it, sorry. Happy W is still with the beating heart, I had suspected B would find him alive... hope he stays that way!

Love O, as ever...

Small note: I think a chicken enclosure is spelled "coop."

Oh, and I think we might've been in Seattle at the same time, I had gone with my sister, who currently lives in Jackson, Mississippi and came to Oregon to visit before we headed to Seattle where she attended a marketing conference 5/29 - 6/1.

Author's Response: You're welcome. It's nice that my impatience has benefits. I changed coop! Thanks for the heads up. I am chickenless! And we were in Seattle at the same time. I flew out on the morning of 5/31. It was a sad time to be there - right after the shooting at the cafe :( But tender how the town pulled together.

I love how Oscar is actually a character instead of a collection of quotes. He feels like a real person, and the relationship he has with Buffy is lovely.

Author's Response: I found "Jersey Shore Gone Wilde" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mhk5Rjz7xk0 and thought of you :) Thank you. That means a lot
