she might as well throw the towel in now!! wave the white flag! but i do admire his restraint. i think it was a first.
and i read ur author's note about someone saying that u were writing James' bio. now.....that is the stupidest thing i've ever heard!! if someone is on a SPUFFY site, reading SPUFFY content, how the hell could they think that this was a bio?????? they need to lay off the crack!!

Great update. Seems Spike is on the way. Hope he can make it for Buffy and Alicia. And even Sam. Looking forward to updates. You've written this story so well.

I'm glad that they got that out into the open. I have to admit that you scared me in the beginning, but I thought that it ended rather well. Wonder how Buffy is going to react to that last line though. More please.

Well, that shouldn't be too hard considering she already DOES love him! Hehehe! Great last couple of chapters! Looking forward to more! =)

Away from the computer for a bit, and almost a dozen chapters to catch up on. Spike realizing the damage his behavior and attitude have caused to his relationship with his daughter was realisitc and hard to read. I didn't know how you were going to broach the romance, and having Buffy come on to Spike while asleep was an excellent way to cut to the chase. You've written two complex characters, and I'm enjoying their adult conversations.

And our Spike is back! He's going to prove himself. I can't wait to see how you write this. Great story!

"I'm going to make you love me."
Psh, that's definately a bold statement! Now, I'm wondering if Buffy's gonna swoon or bristle. Hm. Can't wait for the next chapter, and I've gotta say, that statement made me smile so wide. Awesome job and great update!

Awe, at last Spike noticed for himself that he loves Buffy. Well, now he has to find a way. First, staying on the path he choose; second: finding a way to be with Buffy. *smile* So he thinks he is going to make Buffy love him :) She does, she doesn't need to learn. Loved the chapter; it was better this way for them.

Again this is another Awwwwwww worthy chaper. Can't wait for the next update!

I don't think he really needs to make her love him since she's mostly there! Great great chapter. Love how their chemistry can't help to come out. Can't wait for more interaction with Sam and and Alicia.

I've been reading, but resisted commenting... up 'till now.
I thought this would be another Spike-whore, Buffy-pure story where Buffy suddenly realises she loves him, he loves her and all his past behaviour would be swept away in the passion... and I HATE stories like that. It demeans both of the characters, IMO.
But here, in this chapter, you've actually written Spike realising his lifestyle is damaging, you've written him recognising what real love is for him, you've written a strong Buffy and... you've had Spike make a commitment, to change. I find that quite refreshing, and it gives me hope that not all new young writers are blind to some of the more damaging excesses of life.
Hopw that doesn't come over as too serious, but I do look for the social message in all stories I read. Fanfic is just as powerful as the stuff on bookshelves. It gives a message. I like to read messages that will give a positive example to people. This story seems to have found a way to tell it without losing the excitement - in fact, it makes the tension heightened...
Well done from me, and thank you.
Author's Response: I completely agree with you on having messages in fanfic as well as the books on the shelves. I try to have some kind of message, or theme to ponder and explore. This has been one of them. I don't like to make things rosy and light. I like to make them as real as I can.Thank you for what you said, it meant a lot to me :)

AWW that was just what i needed after reading another story where spike is the biggest jerk ever. awsome chapter. can he do it, more soon please so we can find out
Date: 02/22/2006 - 08:10 am Title: Chapter Nineteen
Another wonderful update! I really enjoyed it. Can't wait to find out what Buffy has to say about Spike's comment.

That was a very smart move Brat..Bringing the dream world to reality..It allowed their subconcious to do all the dirty work..and when Buffy woke up she had no choice but to face the music of how she really feels. I LOVE the way Spike is thinking here. He knows that he has to become a better man all on his own to be worthy of the kind of love that can have with Buffy,
Very pivotol chapter...and it moved things along to the next level very nicely..I will be excited to see your next update!
Author's Response: Thank you :) I was hoping to move it to the next level and get the ball rolling with those two...Glad it went over well :)

*shrieks in ecstasy*
FINALLY!! This two are coming together. They have been for the longest time, but in this chapter I felt it.
More please, Brat???

Gaagh! Don't leave me hanging like this! More soon please!

Aww so sweet.....just a spot of goodness before bedtime. Nice job!
Date: 02/22/2006 - 04:41 am Title: Chapter Nineteen
Nice chapter Brat...although Spike does suffer from a bit of foot and mouth doesnt he?NEVER mention other women around the girl your trying to impress, always a bad idea!! However loved the little bit of Spuffy we got cant wait for the rest, and I'm thinkin he should be pretty good at it, he has hads lots of practise after all*sigh*....anyway as usual Brat PLEASE update soon. I cant wait for Buffy's reaction to his "I'm gonna make you love me" look out I think..
Author's Response: Yeah, he does have foot in mouth, though its not like she isn't aware of them all lol
Date: 02/22/2006 - 03:59 am Title: Chapter Nineteen
YESSSSSS! That was awesome! Letting they're subconscious do the dirty work...uhm, so to speak. Great chapter. Love that he would only touch her and not kiss her but nothing else...and how cool is it that it happened after he realized he loved her. Perfect! Great chapter!
