Great Story - really enjoying your work your Spike is just so perfect for this season and so is Buffy. As much as I really need to leave and get some work done, I can't keep doing the "just one more chapter."

wow. I put off reading it until it was done, once I had read the first few chapters - and I'm glad I did. I have always had a need for immediate completion. It was powerful, and full of emotion. Yet, it had that underlying Spuffy quality that we enjoy. Looking back, I can't help but realize that death was near in her mind. Once the trust was gone, what else was there? Have seen it before...only not fictionally.
You were able to tell a story giving us both sides of the emotion. So much easier to understand when you have both sides of the story.
Very well done, I am impressed.

Well, I didn't think there was a way to reconcile this relationship with a happy ending. This felt right, even though it was heart breaking. The final scene, Spike barred from the house fighting to save her, was vivid and sad. This entire last chapter was atmospheric and beautifully written.

Ah, you are fantastic. I can't believe it's over (what am I going to do with myself now?!) This ending was dramatic, yet honest...and I loved it. It was balls-out and somewhat unexpected, you told it so beautifully.

I've dealt with the suicide of a very close friend so I think I know a little something about how suicide is a selfish, cowardly solution to whatever problem(s) a person may be facing. I'm sorry that the Buffy in this story turned out to be such a selfish coward. The Buffy that I enjoy reading about would NEVER commit such an act unless it was a necessary sacrifice to save the world.

I didn't know that's where you were going... perhaps I should have. God, what an ending scene... rip our still beating hearts out, why dontcha. I'm glad I read this all in a couple days, or I think it would have hit me even harder losing this Buffy. But it still hurts. Poor girl...

Suicide and peaceful are not synonyms and it honestly nauseates me that it's even described that way.

That was a very sad ending, but it was true to the way you've been writing this story. The intensity of the emotions experienced by the Buffy could only end in this way. It was a beautiful story from beginning to end.

Well, you got me, there. Not expecting that - at all. But thinking about it, how else could it have gone when there was no give on either side, be it her mum and friends, or Spike. Her family and friends could not grasp her depths of despair and Spike had not become a kill-free zone. Buffy, in the end, realised that she had been papering over the cracks. She was just a girl but she was also the Slayer. She could not , ultimately, deal with the dilemma or the chasm. She had fallen into the hole and finally, she embraced her descent and chose not to crawl out of it. Finis. Who is to blame? Everyone. No-one. All are punished. A bleak ending, but for Buffy, the only one.

Great story. Searing, and memorable.

Very interesting. I have to say, not exactly the ending I was expecting, but very well done nonetheless. It was amazing. Slightly depressing but very interesting.

sooo good and so sad but I absolutely loved the whole thing and uh, Buffy always did strike me as the sucidal kinda person if it weren't for the whole slaying thing and freinds and she kinda lost them. but anyways, fantastic story and can't wait for more from you!

This is so fun, and hot, full of possibly the best Spike-snark I've ever read, and your Buffy is spot-on, perfect characterization for her had such a catastrophe ever befallen her. Awesomely well done!

I for one, love you for this ending. You captured the emotions beautifully, and I've got to say, this is probably one of the only angsty endings I've truly enjoyed reading. I love the way Buffy was acting, and the way Spike was so.. destroyed by it. Beautiful, beautiful ending to a beautiful, beautiful story.

...Buffy wasn’t a complete idiot, she wasn’t some naïve child. In the back of her mind she had always suspected, maybe even outright known, that ...

You could follow that 'that...' with almost any event in canon Buffy's sad romantic life, couldn't you? You've really captured the essence of the character in this story. Transported her into an extreme personal situation and let her loose... demonstrated her to the fanfic reading world. It's been quite moving to have been along for the ride and I'm hoping you might be inspired to pick this up again and ........ that's why you're a writer, and I'm a reader. I live in hope and dreams... you live to make dreams come to life.

You've kept true to the character's essence throughout. You've never caved in to romantic ideals and you've done the characters, and a very delicate subject justice.

A remarkably moving and honest story. Bravo.

I did not like the way it ended. It was so sad. I kept hoping that Spike would be able to save her. It is kind of fitting that the fact that Buffy's friends interferred and disinvited Spike ended up killing Buffy. Perfect example of their meddling. Even though I like my angst with a happy ending (or atleast no dying), I do want you to know that I loved this story. You wrote it sooo well. I loved all of the emotion that you put into it.

WAIT! Is she dead? We don't know how it ends! Did the sirens get there in time? Did she die and Spike run throught the barrier and turn her? Was Spike scarred from the holy water- and when did that part take place? There are too many unanswered questions, I'm literally really confused right now!

Please- you have to do an epilogue or something, because I don't understand.Please let me know how it ends.. or does it even end here? Let me know, either by an epilogue or here is my email address: lil_red_Renee_robins@hotmail.com Please- drop me a line one way or another. I'd appreciate it.

I don't hate you whatsoever, I think that's a bit juvenile. But i will say that as much as I really liked this fic, I feel like this end was such a cheat and I'm terribly disappointed. I don't think this a "ballsy" choice at all. It completely went against the entire story, that's not ballsy, that's... poor storytelling.
