I like the 'shame the Sun' line. :)

Author's Response: Why thank you. I thought it suited Spike\'s inner poet. :)

SO gratifying to come across a storyline in which Harris is a good guy. What's up with the Xandar hating on this site! Refreshing.

Author's Response: I used to think I really hated Xander, but then I started to notice that in pretty much all of my fics, I wrote him sympathetically. To Be A Kind Of Man is my Xander focused fic and probably my favourite of them all. Thank you so much for reviewing.

spike is stupendously flawed in the tv series. sides, if one is never awkward in bed, it may because nothing new is being tried. how boring is that? unique angle to try in a storyline. i give her kudos.

Summary: Ob-la-di, Ob-la-da, Life Goes On in the "Unexpected" Universe . . . . . . follows "And Baby Makes . . . ". A several chapter continuation of the AU story "Unexpected".



If you haven't read the other stories in the Unexpected Universe, then most of this won't make much sense . . . it starts with the story "Unexpected" and goes from there . ..

Holy crap. Brilliant chapter. This makes me hesitate to ever post anything myself. Pretty sure I can't reach such a portrayal of love/erotica with my writing. Grrrrr.

Author's Response: Hey there!! Nice to meet you, comicbound!! I\'m so glad you liked the chapter and are enjoying the story! Thank you sooo much! Please don\'t let what other people write discourage you! It\'s a process and everyone has their own style - although that is just the most awesome compliment I think I\'ve gotten! I read people like Nautibitz and Holly and Damper and think the same thing, but I do my best, make my muse happy, get the voices out of my head, and that\'s all that matters. :) Posting can be very scary, you\'re putting your heart and soul out there for people to squash - believe me, I know!

Thank you so much for reading and stopping in here! It really makes my muse dance his happy dance to hear from new readers!

Summary: In the middle of the night our two heroes are captured and tortured. Then suddenly the lights go out and they are running--they don't know who from or where to, but a battered slayer and a half broken vampire cling to each other, biding their time. Slayers are not meant to cower and this Slayer is never on her own.

wondering if he will grieve the loss of the old Buffy once he knows this one is a completely different person? Is he not yet in love with the Buffy they just lost?

Author's Response: There are a lot of ways this could go. And I had to carefully pick the time that I chose this storyline to begin in and I am hoping that I have it right, however, I am going to have to take a bit of a writer\'s creativity liberty coming soon because I like to avoid certain characters from the show. They just aren\'t any use to me at all! Hahaha! I\'ll have a chapter up tonight! Thanks so much! :D

creative premise. i like that spike isn't in the first scene, gives you something to look forward to. C.

Author's Response: Thank you! I tried to keep him out until the very end of this chapter but now that I\'ve got him he\'s not going to just be making small appearances. Spike is a huge part of this story line! Thanks so much! :D

Date: 01/05/2013 Title: Chapter 2: The Ultimate Decision

I like that she decides to keep all her memories, good and bad. Otherwise character development later would be challenged because the reader wouldn't know anything about how this buffy is who she is. Also, it gives you the option as a writer to tease the reader by only revealing small bits of her past at a time. C.

Author's Response: Oh yes definitely! I mean, I\'m an ok writer but there was no way I could make her not keep all of her memories and still make this a good fic. That just wouldn\'t have happened lol! Thanks so much! :D

Spirit Indestructible by Passion4Spike Rated: AO-AdultsOnly Liked [Reviews - 379]
Summary: Season 5. Begins with ‘Spiral’ in the abandoned gas station, and goes *far* off-canon almost immediately.

When Dawn makes the ultimate sacrifice to save her sister, friends, and the world, Buffy’s mind snaps. When Buffy's friends give up hope of her ever recovering, and become afraid that she’ll turn violent and uncontrollable, they call in the Council to help. Fearing what the Council will do, Spike, forgotten and ignored by her friends, steps in. Will he be able to reach the Slayer when no one else could? Will he be able to keep her out of the hands of the Council and away from her ‘helpful’ friends? How much heartbreak, guilt, and failure can one girl stand before her indestructible spirit finally resigns the fight and gives up hope?

WARNINGS: Threesome B/G/G action involving Spike, Buffy, and BuffyBot. Main Character Death. Plenty of angst.
