Oh wow! Go Buffy telling Angel the way it is. How great to have a story that lets Buffy see what's real in time to make something of it. Deserves all the awards.

Summary: Dru shows up earlier and Spike decides Buffy needs to know about Darlas actions. This leads to changes that affect the Glory-situation as well as the relationships between the Scoobies. At the same time Buffy and her friends learn what having or not having a soul really means.

Cousin Arabella by Lilachigh Rated: NC-17 [Reviews - 177]
Summary: Season Six, < Winner of Best Original Character in Blood Ties Awards Round 4. > Updated summary: A party, lots of demons, hatred, passion, white hot jealousy and several glasses of pink champagne. Not a good mixture for a Slayer and a Vampire whose cousin is trying to make Buffy admit her feelings.....

Spike's Way by Oracleholly Rated: NC-17 [Reviews - 19]
Summary: Spoilers: BTVS S7 & ATS S5: AR/ Sequel to “The Poetry Slam.” Picks up the action right before onset of battle in “Never Fade Away.” Takes off from there. Pairings: None immediately, but eventually Spuffy of course and some surprising others. And oh yes, much later on ‘bitey goodness!’

Oh, Holly. Great update, but evil cliffhanger? Booooo! Another chapter soon, please?

Summary: Altered events of Season 2. Due to circumstances beyond her control, Buffy finds herself at an 80's Flashback night club where she finds the Billy Idol impersonator a bit, uh, familiar. This is a Spuffy vampire/slayer fic, not all-human.

I think I reviewed this somewhere else, but just in case....Loving it! Must have missed something if people are complaining about the britishisms. Hard to believe that even if someone had never read any thing else using British/Aussie terminology, that context itself wouldn't make meanings perfectly clear. Be that as it may, great, fun little story and looking forward to an update.

OMY, Temp! Is this the fight scene you were struggling with? It rocked! And way to leave us dangling with an evil cliff hanger! More, immediately, please! (Oh, God, do I sound like Wulfie? Whine!)

Author's Response: Yep, you sound a little like our beloved Wulfie... Never mind, I won't tell anyone, it'll be our little secret ;-) And alas no, this is not my dreaded fight scene, this was considered easy to write compared to that scene... LOL. Thanks for your support Patti; I know I've been very slack with responding to my reviews, but I always read them… I’m a bit of a review slut.
