Bio:
I' m 28, just got the exact job I've been avoiding all my life (working with my dad... but it seems OK after all... go figure!!!) and have almost finished my MBA. Been a Spuffy fan for ever, but only got addicted to fanfic in May, 2007, following a nasty break-up (guy pulled an "Angel" on me, and left me for my own good).

Desperately needed a Spike in my life, so I finally decided to give -my- Buffy one (at least to start with; if my first story works I'll try to make as many Buffys happy as possible!!! :P)

01/11/2008 Hey, I got an lj account, http://ssddgr.livejournal.com/ (yup, Sotia is finally catching up with technology! LOL) Almost nothing there yet, but starting next weekend I plan on starting to post there too! Please friend at will! LOL

02/22/2008 See that 'almost finished my MBA' a couple of paragraphs up? Well, replace that with 'have just finished my MBA' (if that jerk doesn't fail me again!!) Woo Hoo!!!!!

03/17/2008 The moving icon was made from a manip made for my birthday by framedinlove on lj. Isn't it cool?



01/13/2010:I decided to de-Spuffify and self-publish the P-Series. That means that I will be taking it down from all sites, including LiveJournal. If you want a copy, just comment here with your e-mail address, and I'll send it to you. I'd never have finished that series if it weren't for you.



And if you really wanna buy a copy of the original version, Passionate, you can get one here (and feel free to spread the word). :D



05/28/11: An e-publisher has asked to read the original version of the Tooth Fairy (thank you Kim for pointing me their way!!!)

Whether they decide they want to publish it or not, I will be taking it down from archives and my LJ tomorrow. As with the P-Series, I'll gladly send Spuffy copies of it to anyone who asks for it. Feel free to save it before I take it down, if you want, but please refer people who ask for copies to me; I wouldn't like it to be passed around without my knowing about it.



Thank you,

Sotia

Another approached and for a brief moment, Spike wondered why they always seemed to attack one at a time.Hmmm... *scratches chin* I've been wondering about this in all karate films...

...Focus, Sotia!!!

Well, I LOVED the update, hated Giles with a fiery passion, and have a sense of impending doom that I really don't want to see come true. I'm hooked on this and will follow it to the end, but you've been warned *chuckles*

I hope Buffy lets Spike know about whatever it is that Andrew came up with!

*hugs*

Author's Response: Yes, there seems to be the same puzzling action in all Kung-Fu movies. Weird. I am so glad you loved the update, I really enjoyed writing this chapter. Seriously got like no work done tonight and now must scramble to get it completed in time! Shame on me. As for you fiery hatred of Giles, I would be worried if you didn't. I know I have been warned, but please be patient and trusting. Oh and she will let him know....eventually. **Grins wickedly** Thanks so much! Yea Sotia! **hugs you back**

I know I promised not to rant much... and I plan to stick with it, but that doesn't mean I'm not glowering at the screen right now!!!

I think Buffy did what she did so she could use his blood to be sacrificed in order to save the world (or just sacrifice HIM to save it, but I was hoping she'd kiss him and say something if that was the reason). Still, I doubt Rupes will see it that way... GRRRRRRRRRRR

OK, post next chapter NOW and gimme some hope, PLEASE??? *bats eyelashes*

*hugs you* (mainly to keep you close enough to choke you if you don't fix this! LOL)

Author's Response: I think the next chapter will answer most of your questions behind Buffy's reasoning, first part will back track and be her POV. Thank you for not ranting at me, and lots of hugs for being kind enough to review. (At this point, you are the only one who did.) I will be working on the next chapter soon, hopefully work won't be too busy and will let me write. Sadly, it's really warm out and that usually brings out things of the bad. Thanks again, hun...even if you are trying to choke me!

Buffy's letter has me crying... I'm glad I read this at home!

Thank God Spike (and Rupert) found out the truth and he doesn't think she betrayed him...

...I guess Buffy is in a Hell dimension similar to the one Angel was in in BTVS... Shit! I knew this was coming but it still hurts!

I'll be keeping my fingers crossed that you develop a conscience and fix this, evil woman!

*hugs*

PS. It was still incredibly beautiful and I still love this story!

Author's Response: And here I was actually worried that it wouldn't be a tearjerker...thanks for letting me know that it was. I simply could not let Spike continue to think that Buffy had betrayed him, just not in my nature to hurt him that much. Yes, she is in a dimension similar to where Angel was, so it should be interesting to see her return. Course, I have a few tricks up my sleeve in regards to that! I will fix it and stop being an evil woman, but you will have to wait patiently like everyone else until the sequel is posted! Thanks so much for the wonderful review!

I'm gonna find you woman!!!! LOL!

OK, by asking for her to be alive your evilness can torment me in sooooo many more ways!

She can come back to life and be at the other end of the world (as a human, not vampire) and/or not even know him... she can be un-dead again (naaah) or she can be a 100 yr old lady withering away...

I need more pronto, and since you will have your laptop with you on vacation I can send you pleading/threatening e-mails all the time, so YAYYYYYYY!!!!

Well, I trust you, you left us with some hope and I know there's a sequel, so all in all GREAT STORY (and chocolate covered Spikes for ya!)

*hugs*

Author's Response: Ah, yes...many of ways for me to torture you in the sequel. But, I wouldn't do that...or would I? It's not like I'm evil or anything. LoL! Thank you so much for all the wonderful reviews, and constant pestering (er, encouragement) that you sent my way. I graciously accept all chocolate covered Spikes! Thanks, babe!

OMG, will those people never relent? I so hope that Buffy will build up the courage to tell everyone but Dawn off and ride into the sunset with Spike, but I have complete confidence in you to make sure this story has a fitting ending (one that's far-far away, I hope :P) whether it be happy or not!

The whole interaction between Buffy and Spike was beautiful, and I'm so happy it didn't end up with her fist on his nose and that she meant it what she said she was his (for now, anyway!) and Dawn was so... Dawn! I loved it, as always!

I knew it was too good to last :(

And I'm 99% certain those are Dru's victims, not Spike's and I just hope that - going by the last phrase of the chapter - so is Buffy!

Can't this be a case where it's the two of them against the world instead of one where it's one against the other cuz the world decided to mess them up? *bats eyelashes*

Naaaah, I know it's your story and I trust you!

Another magnificent update, loved the insight to William, and will now chain-smoke till I find out what the job for Spike is (oh God, is it to take care of the demon eggs???) and what Buffy's reactions will be.

*hugs*

Author's Response: Since you've read the new chapter, I know that you're already aware that those were Spike's victims. I just wasn't sure if you remember that they were mentioned in Part II (Chapter 30). I think most people forgot, since it happened 100,000 words ago, lol. But he was a naughty boy. :P Thanks for the review! :-D

*hugs you tight and gives you hot chocolate with marshmallows, chocolate-covered Spikes with sprinkles of white chocolate, whipped cream and a cherry on top*

This is the Buffy we should have seen in BTVS, warrior and woman both sure of what they want and ready to defend it no matter what others thought!

I love how Spike tries to change for her, but adore how she wants to show him he doesn't need to!

*bows to your genious and writing skills*

I know I've said it before, but this story keeps getting better with every new chapter, and it has passed the point of what I had in mind as "perfect" a while ago, only to redefine it!

Thank you so much for sharing!

If he could have, he would have nestled into the soft bed of her temporal lobe or been held by the pulsing muscles of her right atrium. He would have become so deeply embedded that she couldn’t ignore him or run away; he would have been part of her..........Achingly beautiful! I had tears in my eyes at this! *applauds*

But this: “So, this is it,” he said slowly, his eyes narrowing behind the glasses he then removed to clean with a ferociousness directed at her. “You choose Spike—a vampire, an unrepentant killer—over your calling and your own wellbeing.”

“Yes,” she said simply. “I do.”
..........really had me bouncing on my chair!!! (and I'm in the office; people around are staring but I don't really care!!!)

However the ending sent a chill down my spine! After she has trusted him and stood up for him how can he - even by mistake - not do the right thing? It might be the only thing that can tear them apart at this point and it is such a shame!

I can only hope for the best (but after the perfection that has been the last few chapters I refuse to prepare for the worst!)

Wonderful, marvelous, brilliant update!

Thank you :-D

*hugs*

Author's Response: You picked out my favorite bit of text from the chapter. I was hoping that bit didn't seem to wordy, but I just had to include it because I thought it fit Spike so well. He's so hungry for love and so greedy with it. Maybe I'm weird, but I think the obsessiveness is sexy. Not in real life, I'm sure. That would become tiresome. But with Spike in fantasy...yeah, I like it. Thanks so much for the review. :-D ((hugs))

See? It was so worth the wait I read it first thing in the morning and squee'd at work!!!

This----“You idiot,” Buffy cut in impatiently. “Listen to what I’m saying! It doesn’t matter. They all know about it now, and I chose you.”----had me awww-ing (and receiving some very weird looks, as I don't even have my own cubicle and I'm surrounded by men in the dept.)

I can't wait to see how Buffy reacts to the letter, but I will gladly do so knowing the next chapter will be just as great as the rest of them.

I hope your ankle is better honey, and that you manage to take it easy, despite RL been a pain!

*hugs you tight*


Author's Response: The line you quoted was one of my favorites, so it's great to know that you enjoyed it, too. It made up for her shoving the ring back at him, I think. As for Spike's means of getting money ... I wish he were real and willing to help *me* out. There would be a strict "don't ask, don't tell" policy between us. :P Thanks so much for the review. You're such a sweetie. (((hugs)))

I love you, you know!

This entire chapter was more lighthearted (except for the emotional ending, that is) than almost any other. The were so easy with each other I kept awww-ing and at points giggling, and I really, reeeeeeeally enjoyed it!

Because, there was her emotionally underdeveloped sister sitting in the living room, watching a rerun of E! True Hollywood Story while the big, bad William the Bloody stretched across the sofa with his head on her lap. ---- AWESOME!

and

Like a shot, Spike was off the sofa. He crossed to the foyer so quickly that it was amazing he didn’t trip over himself. Dawn could see from his limp that he might not be quite as healed as he claimed, but it didn’t seem to slow him down. When he reached them, he pushed her out of the way so he that could put his arms around Buffy.---- *sighs* I ADORE that man!

Honey this story is bloody marvelous, is what it is!

*hugs*

Author's Response: I just wanted to drop a (very) belated thank you for your review of this chapter. I really appreciate the time you took to leave it. The sentence you mentioned (Spike's head being on Buffy's lap) was actually one of my favorites. I had such a great mental image when I wrote that. lol.
