Things gonna be bumpy? *wonder* ... We'll see. Loved the chapter, loved Dawn's POV: Awe, Spike, his girl is a woman now, huh? And the lovemaking was hot. I said it before: Great chapter!

WOW!!! The Angel/Darla scene still gets to me....I cry like mad for her and the love she has for her baby (and the knowledge that it's only because of the shared soul)...it just breaks my heart. Spuffy....wow. I also liked the Dawn scene, very sweet. Can't wait for more!!!

Oh my god, Nia... I have come undone. This chapter is so heartbreaking and hopeful. Filled with such complex emotions. I was tearing up when Dawn came down the stairs, and in full out tears when Angel and Darla were conversing on top of the building. How fitting is it that such a momentous ocassion as Dawn's first dance would occur after Dawn has discovered who her parents are? This was so moving. That Spike and Buffy were playing the roles they actually owned. Oh gosh, I can' t stop the tears. And Darla's desperate pleas to Angel regarding the loss of life within her body. Wonderful use of some very poignant and important canon lines. I hope you write more of Darla's plight. I was floored by Julie Benz's performance on Angel. She was not used nearly enough. And you write Darla spectacularly. I get goose bumps reading this scene. The scene between Buffy and Spike in the bathroom was so precious, so sexy, so amazing. He does love taking care of her doesn't he? Lucky, lucky girl. Wonderful chapter Nia. Just beautiful. I'm going to need to stock up on kleenex this weekend. If this chapter is indicative of the bumpiness we face, I'm gonna need them. Thank you for such a beautiful chapter.

I loved Spike's reaction to seeing Dawn--very fatherly and sweet. And the last line at the end was very aww worthy. :) The scenes with Darla and Angel are just as powerful here as they were on the show, and I'm impressed with how well you weave the dialogue into the story. A lot of authors try to, but it's rarely done well. (It does help that you're using the characters the dialogue was intended for...) Everything with Darla and Connor was gut-twisting, and you've managed to keep it at that level. Great chapter as always!

Well now that hottness can sure melt the new fallen snow in my yard today. That said. Dawn looked so beautiful. Spike trying to be all host with most. Good for him wanting to meet the parents. As it should of been. Him helping her down the steps and telling her she was beautiful and all grown up. *tears* brings back some good memories. I can sympathize with Buffy's ickies. But hey now if the curse could be that fun then I would not complain about alittle cramping. Nia you wrote that scene like chocolate satin pie..smooth, rich, and tastey. Very nicely done. Who needs steam when you have the hottness that was going on in that bathroom. Great desciption of the events. I could just imagine Spike's eyes with mischeif in them. *grins*. Now for Darla, I am not and was never an Angel fan. Though the way you described how Darla was feeling, oh gods how heart wrenching. Since I did not watch the show I have not idea how this plays out, so I am eager to know if she is able to remember. Will she be able to love this child. Will Angel help her, will he be a man for once and help her through this? The baby needs him but so does Darla. I hope she finds some solace. Then there is the Dawn, having a great moment at the dance. Oh sweet that she looks over at the boy and just thinks he is the cutest thing on two legs. How she is so thankful for Spike not being "hard father figure". Those "gods of the first date" must of just heard her plea. *grins*. Excellent Chapter Nia, nice play of emotions. Keeping us wanting more and more and more. But what is the rest of gang up to? The shit hitting the fan soon? *rubs hands together* can't wait to find out.
