I'm a 38 year old lawyer, mother of two adorable twin girls. I live in Guatemala City, Guatemala, Central America. So as you may have guessed English is not my first language, although for some weird reason I don't think I can actually write fanfiction or anything that isn't contracts in Spanish.

*lol* I sooo very much love this sotry! And I truly can't wait to see where you'll be taking us with it. It sure promises to be one hell of a ride. I think Guatemalan summer just got a whole lot hotter than it already was. *turns fan into high* My vote is for this one, darling, btw. :D *smooches*
Summary: Season 4 - Starts with the episode "Something Blue" and goes off canon from there. Spike and the Scoobies have no idea what the chip is capable of... and once it starts to misfire, Spike becomes a wealth of information. Giles becomes obessed with Spike's new-found ability and Buffy starts to look at him in a new light. But what will Riley and the Commandos do when they catch Spike in this state? Will the Scoobies save him in time? Do they even want to? Not the usual "Something Blue" fic.

Yay, you're done! And this was the perfect ending to this fantastic story, sweetie! I loved it from beginning to end. It was original, witty, funny, angsty, romantic, hot as hell, all in all it has all those elements that kept us begging for more. I'm so happy I could help you in a small measure. I had so much fun with that last part, you had me in tears as I saw Cordelia being humped into the ground by bad doggie Angel! *lmao* That was beyond brilliant and God, the love-making was to die for! Really, really wonderful. I'm looking forward to more from you. Hopefully soon? *bats eyelashes and throws you a kiss* Love ya, sweetie!
Author's Response: YAY!!!!!!!! *runs and jumps in your arms for a hug!* I'm so happy! I'm glad you took pity on me and beta'd from like chapter 20 on... it sucked before hand. I'm glad you like doggy Angel and bitchy Cordy - they deserve each other. And I'll update OFLG soon, I promise! Again, thank you so very much for everything you've helped me do, I couldn't have done it without you! MWAH!

I so loved this chapter, darling! Espeically when they came face to face again. I feel slightly bad for Buffy, one can only imagine what those expectations of Spike entail. *weg* Loving the characterizations, the details, the humor but above all I love you, magnificently done!
Author's Response: Thank you so much darling, I love you too. I do feel Bad putting Buffy in this position, but hey..... evil here, LOL. The tension in that office is just palpable, isn't it? Mwahahahhahahhaha!!!

*rofl* Loved the long chapter! It was brilliant as always. Love that she's affected by him on some level, even if she'd never accept it, and he's such a bad boy... Yumm! And I do emphasize the boy part, he has some serious growing up to do. *giggles* But what a delicious journey I'm sure it'll be. Fantastic chapter and yay for weekly updates! It was a pleasure to help you, you know that. I should be the one thanking you for keeping me sane. *smooches*
Author's Response: She's definitely not immune to him but she's fighting like hell, huh? Giggles - UST, gotta love it. And thank you thank you thank you soooooooo much for putting up with me last night through all the preparation, it means the world to me as do you. Luv u carino.

I almost feel bad for Spike for having to see Buffy go out on a date with Angel. Almost, because as always he's thinking with the part of his anatomy that generally gets him in trouble. ;) And I have to give it to Angel, he's good, definitely much better than Parker. I just hope Buffy sees through the facade and realizes what a bad rude man he is in reality. Loved to see Buffy jealous of the brunette girl, and I loved the way she dealed with Spike after that. The way everything she does affects him is endearing. *giggles* I can't wait for the next darling, I know it's a very good one! *smooches*
Author's Response: Yeah........ 'almost', LOL - but even though Buffy wasn't doing it to get even with Spike, he sort of deserved a dose of his own medicine - without the sex though b/c she said she wouldn't sleep with Angel. Spike really does get effected by everything she does - whether he admits it or not - the boy has some learning to do yet, more so than Buffy, giggles. Thanks for al your help carino - you know I couldn't do it without ya - luv u boo.

You know I don't mind helping you any way I can, sweetie. It's fun to work like we did today, especially when we're both heavily medicated. *rofl* Wonderful chapter, very awwwww-worthy, I was melting right along with Buffy at how much Spike has changed, how he treats her. *happy sigh* And she's already noticing all those changes and giving in a little bit. I'm very glad she's already realized Angel is not for her and Spike might be. ;) I'm looking forward to more, very soon! *smooches*
Author's Response: Oh, but I was a pain in the ass to deal with that day and we both know it, bad Tina. But we were both medicated pretty good, so I suppose we can blame it on the meds, hee hee. Thank you again so much from the bottom of my heart carino - you're the best. Yes, looks like Angel will be seeing the door soon and spuffy goodness will be slowly working its magic in bringing our couple together. Thanks again for everything boo - luv you.

You already know I adored this chapter so much! The kiss was beyond hot! Actually the whole scene gave me tingles of the very good kind. And how sweet was Spike by giving her Sebastian and choosing him because of the color of his eyes? awwwwww. I just can't wait to read where you'll be taking Spike and Buffy after this. It should be very interesting to see how they get past this. ;) Thank you for another fabulous update and again for all your help today. Love you, sweetie!
Author's Response: Giggles - it really was a fun chapter to write despite me feeling rusty on the hot factor, but thank you so much for helping me get through that - you're a lifesaver boo. Ah yes, next chapter is actually going to surprise people by how our couple deals with what has happened, *wink, wink*. Love you with all my heart carino, thanks again for everything - smooches.
Summary: While spending the weekend with friends at a sci-fi convention in Las Vegas, Buffy Summers is presented with the opportunity of a lifetime...a date with her favorite actor, Spike Thorne.

Author's Response: Thanks for the review! Glad you are enjoying the story, it's a new avenue to me to write a more lighthearted and funny story; usually focus on the angsty stuff. Really pleased to see that the story is taking off so well! **Squee** Thanks again and I plan to update sometime before the weekend if possible!

Guh! Definitely not what I expected, but no less perfect for that. Very, very hot scenario. Loved the detail you put into each scene, how it made it more vivid for me. It was exquisite, the angst, her pain, the sex, the turning. Every word making the experience even better. Bravo on a wonderful chapter, sweetie!
Author's Response: Wow! Thanks, Mari! Have I mentioned that your reviews always make me blush from all the wonderful things you say? No? Well, they do! I'm happy to hear that you like all the descriptive details I add into the story. I love weaving together all the intricate details and making them pop, ya know? And, sometimes I let myself get carried away, or atleast that's how I feel! LOL So, Im glad to hear you approve! Thanks so much for the review!!! **huggles**
