Overall I enjoyed this story. The Faith storyline's resolution has problems, and I agree with other reviewers that gang rape and murder cannot be considered "mild violence" or just karmic retribution. This story needs a strong editing; punctuation, spelling, vocab, syntax and other errors makes this difficult to read sometimes. The smut was quite hot in a lot of places, and I liked the progression of William/Elizabeth's relationship.

Seriously? Mild violence? What is wrong with you?

RAPE is not mild. EVER. Ask anyone who has ever been raped, it's not mild. It hurts and is wrong and I can't believe you think there is anything in the world that RAPE would be karmic retribution to. No one, not even the worst person in the world should ever have to be raped.

This was disgusting and horrifying. I don’t know why you felt like writing this.
Show this to a counselor, let them talk you back to reality please.
I am literally sick to my stomach now.
Please AT LEAST revise mild violence to “rape and violence” so people know what they’re getting into.

I really can't get behind this chapter.
It was written alright and I can buy into the actions that occurred, but to say that it's karmic retribution and thus justified is just cruel.
No one deserves to have that done to them and anyone who has been raped will tell you that.
It upsets me that this was written as a way of balancing the cosmic scales in your story when there are so many other ways this could have been done without such brutal actions.
(Sorry that I am getting my panties in such a bunch over a fictional character, but I don't think scenes like this should be taken lightly)

I know it's been a long time since you wrote this, and even if you don't keep up with reviews or this fandom (?) any more (not sure if you do or don't).I just needed to respond to your fic. It was
'recced' when someone was searching for it on the new fic-search forum here on The Spuffy Realm. I'm so glad someone else wanted to find it, as the description caught my interest too, and I had the opportunity to read it also. I'm not a huge fan of AH fics, only excellent ones, and especially ones that are in keeping with the themes addressed within the series. I feel you did an excellent job of this, converting those issues and incidents over to an AH and unique setting, keeping the situations and ideas fresh and original, yet still managing to incorporate several key points and themes from the BtVS series world, as well as the specific characters involved. You did a great job of working the characters and personalities into the storyline, of course most specifically William/Spike, Buffy, and Faith, though also those of Dru, Angel and Angelus. I loved the cameo at the end of Willow and Tara.
You did a wonderful job of addressing fairly socially 'taboo' (though what is really taboo any more?) issues, while walking a fine line between being apologetic and non-apologetic as far as from the character's viewpoints; and in the end, they themselves accepting each other for exactly what they were, what they are and will yet become, and working with it unapologetically was a bold move that paid off. It made a bold statement, IMHO, not often seen in fluffy fanfic, itself unique, and perhaps seen too seldom in current fanfic; not everything herein ended up fluffy bunnies and balloons (save those for the baby's nursery!) as depicted by Faith's harsh death and Buffy and William's choice to somewhat appease 'Spike's" dark-ish side from time to time when necessary, be it in a more contained & controlled, safer manner. The theme of "Inner Demons", and actually showing them as something plausible, was fresh and appreciated.
I enjoyed it immensely. I couldn't put it down! And, I was sorry to see it come to a close. Fanfic needs more like this still. Thank you very much for writing this one. I can't rec it enough.

Gotta say, when I first started reading this tale, I was kinda shocked (just cause you write much hotter than I read) but I quickly got into the story and the incredibly HOT sex between William and well.... everybody! I found myself, "lusting" after more of this total wicked tale and then found myself laughing and crying as well, then you managed to get that totally sweet/sexy proposal!. The only weird thing was picturing Gunn and Wes raping someone - just didn't fit with my imagination of what those two are like (Angelus doing it was not a problem), but I truly enjoyed the story, after all, it's your tale, not mine so I'm certainly not saying anything bad, just different than what I would of though! The ending was touching (especially the tombstone). Thanks for sharing. It was awesome!

::I hope I did the story justice with this ending ::: Yes, I think you did. Loved the line on the Line: "Little Girl Lost Has Finally Found Peace" . And Spike and Buffy being a family now.

I don't know if i've reviewed on this story before but damn't I should have. It was written beautifully and had a great plot, you didn't drag it out and you didn't fill it up with song lyrics. Thank-you.......

Very cool. Love the proposal and the ending. As "cheesy" as most people find happy endings to be, I think these two have earned it. Thanks for a great story.

What a great story -- I'm sad to see it end. I'm glad you made the ending full of hope and forgivness -- not regret and despair. What a unique story -- I loved it. Great job!

Lovely ending to a particularly fantastic story. At points, Faith's antics almost became too much, but it was worth it in the end. I'm glad that Buffy was able to find peace in regards to her relationship with Faith. She did everything she could. Very cute proposal by Spike too. I have never heard of that kind of proposal before. Very unique. Thanks for a wonderful, sexy, angsty, engrossing story. This is definitely one that I will remember and read again.

Wonderful ending! I really enjoyed this story (although, I have to admit, I was expecting Riley to show up since he was just MIA, but I'm glad he didn't). Great job and I'll definitely be checking out more of your work when I get a chance.

I have to say I'm glad I started reading this story. Although, I am also glad that I waited, because some of those cliffhangers would have killed me LOL! I was sorry about Faith in this chapter. Yeah, she was a bitch, but I was expecting a car accident or something. She was just never able to escape the demons of her past. I was kind of hoping Gunn was Forrest (I have a soft spot for Gunn) but I could easily picture Wes- based on the Angel episode of "Billy." He could play a serial killer with the best of them :-) You stayed true to the dark theme of the story and you've done a great job! I can't wait for your next update.

I have to applaud you on being able to write this chapter. If I'd done it, I would have been flamed, so excellent job!

I'm spending tonight catching up on some WIP's that I've been dying to read, but haven't had the time. I normally review when I'm finished with the latest chapter, but I just had to say- I laughed so hard when she considered celibacy after sleeping with Parker, that my husband (who was on the other side of the house) came to check on me! Excellent line and I'm really liking this story so far. On a side note, thank you for reviewing so many of my fics!
