Glad that Spike did not dust himself and that Bess gave up the gem for her father. Does the gem keep their bloodlust away or lessen it? If so, will Bess need to feed more? Anyway, glad that the family met Troy and that Bess has decided to go slow on any relationship. Faith really adds to the humor by being a cougar around Troy, he really burst her bubble with the ma'am. Your muse is making everyone suffer! Put a "return to sender" stamp on Pele Haleakala so that Xander and Anya can have a mini-honeymoon. Keeps fingers crossed that Spike will come out of his coma soon. BTW, your muse doesn't plan to erupt a volcano while Xander and Anya are there does he? Hope not!

Author's Response: Hey Vette! I don't think that the Gem does that. Bess has never really fed off humans (very long habit of animal blood while in the dungeon) and she does have her soul, so I'm gonna say that's not gonna be a problem. Poor Faith! She is thirty now, it's about time someone called her ma'am! heehee! My evil muse didn't think of having the volcano erupt ... oh, that would've been cool! drat! Thanks so much, Vette! I do always love your reviews! -p4s 2012.02.06

A beginning in angst but an ending in hope, for Spike, and in some way for Bess. Since Slayer blood didn't work they have to try something. At least it shouldn't be able to hurt. The story title has fit in some of the other chapters but this is the one that points the title out.

Author's Response: Hi Magnus ... yes, and *finally* we get to the actual title/theme of the story, right? My muse definately took the long way home on this one. Thanks so much for reading and stopping in! {Slayer hugs for you} -p4s 2012.02.01

So much good. Glad they found Troy. It's nice to give Bess a muse, and to introduce a sane person into this crazy world. I also thought Buffy did a pretty good job with the whole Spanish inquisition, and I loved Faith's indignation at being called ma'am. It's a pretty shocking thing the first time that happens to you. :) I do hope there is some chance this whole process can help Spike out. Update soon!

Author's Response: The first time you're called ma'am is definately something you never forget ... you look around to see who they're talking to ... and then you realize it's YOU ... ARRRGGHH! heehee! Glad you liked the job Buffy did on the S.I., Spike will have a shot at that too (but it will be in the next story - that's a little preview of coming attractions for you!). Thanks so much for reading and always stopping in, BR! Love hearing from you! -p4s 2012.02.01

There is a sense of hope in this chapter. What a good daughter to give up her invicibility for her Da. It was a nice scene around the dinner table. I hope the ceremony works but something tells me the recovery won't be that easy for Spike.

Author's Response: Hi Bridget! Glad you liked the scene around the dinner table ... that was a fun one to write. We'll see now what, if anything, can fix Spike ... Thanks so much for stopping in here! {hugs} -p4s 2012.02.01

Ahh, Bess and Troy sitting in a tree. I can see Dani singing that to them and convicing Billy to do it also.
Small humans, the stress is so much for buffy she is starting to think like Anya. Not that that is a bad thing. That looks wrong but sounds right.

Author's Response: heehee! I can hear Dani now and yes, she'd make Billy do it too! Poor Buffy ... when Anya speak starts rubbing off on you, you know you're in deep doo-doo! Thanks much for stopping in! We'll see how the trip to paradise goes soon! -p4s 2012.01.29

Wow! Spike on a bad acid trip what an evil idea (big surprise – not!). Really, really loved the Buffy inquisition and the conversation between Troy and Bess even more! Thanks for another wonderful and quick update. More soon please.

Author's Response: Hi Melly! Yay for a little glimpse of happy even though the acid trip goes on for Spike. We'll see how Xander and Anya and Faith do in Hawaii ... maybe Alex O. won't call Faith 'maam' and she can talk to his tatoos ... :) Will have more soon ... Thanks again! -p4s 2012.01.29
