Lovely update, as always. I like that this chapter was written from Spike's POV. Brilliant bit of storytelling right there and it'll be interesting to see how their relationship will blossom (finally).

Author's Response: I love that you review so often, and of course, I'm glad that you enjoyed the chapter.

Okay so I want you to know that I do not cry when I read fanfic. Even the most angsty of reunions have not made me cry. This chapter did the trick. Wow. Your best chapter yet... I'm blown away. Thank you for posting!! :)

Author's Response: My goodness. I'm the opposite, I cry at the drop of a hat, but after pounding this chapter into submission I was so over it that I really wasn't sure if anyone would feel anything when they read it. So glad this worked for you!

So sad... with the misunderstandings.. of not knowing how the other truely feels.
Well written.. made me tear up.. BTW..
glad they were finally able to finally give each other comfort and truths
enjoyed..

Author's Response: You're very kind. I was hoping for an emotional response from people and wasn't sure if I'd managed to pull it off. So glad I did! Thanks for reading.

I will definitely be here until your computer starts working again! I'm definitely loving the character development of Xander. I really felt that he was going in the right direction by the time S7 rolled around, so it's nice to see how that continued from that point. BTW, thanks for letting us (the readers) know what's going on, as far as the computer issues are concerned. I'll be sure to keep this story in my favorites so I can keep an eye out for your oh so glorious return! ;)

Author's Response: Apparently my readers all sent healthy-computer vibes my way, because the repair turned out to be so minor I wasn't even charged for it. "That's right - I'm back, and I'm a bloody animal!"

Enjoyed the growinup conversation. Spooky way for Spike to wake up. Nice job

Author's Response: Many thanks! Unfortunately I've had to go back and run a bunch of edits on prior chapters... but I'm glad you liked what I started with. I think the newer versions are even better.

Was worried when Buffy left... glad she returned but now for you cliff hanger..
Is there something else that Figg has done..in his spell on Spike ?
enjoying.

Author's Response: Everything Figg did to Spike has been described in the story, except the bones in the chain because Spike wouldn't have been able to feel that happening.

Author's Response: Forgot to add: Glad you're enjoying this!

Great story! I don't think you're losing a grasp of Buffy's character at all.

She always seemed sure about the slaying stuff, but not so sure about relationship stuff, or even her own internal dialog. I never got the impression on the show that she had truly come to know who she was yet, or how the slayer and the person melded into who she was. I have to admit, that whole concept is very confusing, and I'm not sure anyone would be able to figure that out without the help of a gifted professional counselor.


Author's Response: Ahh, yes, the whole "cookie dough" thing. Thanks for reminding me of that. I had a couple people who seemed annoyed that Buffy left in the previous chapter, and I wasn't sure if that was because SHE was being annoying or if *I* had written her wrong. Thanks!

I am definitely enjoying the story. Poor Buffy has just been through so much. I'm sure she just needs a breather and then she'll be back. Looking forward to the rest!

Author's Response: Many thanks. I am working on Part 19 right now, which is a bit difficult with this cat on my lap, but I persevere. For YOU.

Enjoying the story but don't get Buffy freaking out?

Author's Response: She's kind of an emotional train wreck right now. I can keep writing her as bursting into tears at the drop of a hat, or I can show some of the other ways that everything is affecting her. Don't worry, it won't last. She can't ever stay away from Spike for long.

Author's Response: I've ended up rewriting that chapter in response to a number of reviews I received. Apparently what I was getting at didn't come across right the first time.

I just found this story and I love it so far. How is Spike going to be rescued if he wasn't even able to make contact with the slayers in Cleveland? Hopefully Buffy's dreams will become less cryptic, and soon! Okay, now I'm going to eagerly read some more! :)

Author's Response: So glad you're enjoying! I wasn't sure what the response would be here on Spuffy Realm.

Hi, I am loving this story, luv spike and feel sad when he,s hurting. Has been great to get chapters so quickly please carry on

Author's Response: Well, once Chapter 1 got approved I wanted to get all the chapters I have up on the site, so that Spuffy Realm is caught up with the other places I'm posting. Chapter 17 *should* come up later today assuming I finish it to my satisfaction. Glad you're enjoying!

Just started ready this story. The 1st chapter has definitely peaked my interest. Giles started so great, sad where he ended, but he's only human unfortunately. Some parents just don't trust their kids to make the right decision, love clouds the brain.

Author's Response: Thank you for being my first reviewer here on Spuffy Realm! In Giles' case I always wonder how much love had to do with the way he manipulated Buffy and kept things from her. Ah well, it's done now. I hope you enjoy future chapters!
