OK, Oi!!! you can't stop there! 

Please?

“I did not mean to refer to your preference of women now, but I do want to know what you use to… urk!” This time it was a pale masculine hand that was slapped gently over her mouth.

ROFLMAO!!!

Things are about to get REALLY interesting!!

Forget Ethan and Giles, drag Buffy off somewhere to shag. LoL

oh this should be an interesting road trip for the both of them! i hope that bit of guilt buffy felt when tara reproved her for beating on spike sticks with her while she's alone with him...hope they can help giles...though i have to say ripper's *far* more fun than giles!! great chpater :)

Absolutely hilarious. Anya's a real hoot - have Giles finance his own rescue because he was 'careless' - hysterical! Can't wait for the next update.

And they're off!

Hmm, think Angel would mind if I asked him what a feck was? I haven't heard that one before, which is not surprising considering one; I had a sheltered upbringing and two; I live in the US where swear words aren't quite as exciting. LOL

Lovely chappy!

his skin itched at the responsibility he had oozing from every pour ROFL I loved this line! So Spike!
(small voice - "pore")

Great new chapter, sweetie. I'm learning new swear words! LOL "feck"? 'splainy, please?

I just love your characterizations, you're doing an amazing job of capturing everyone's personality. Anya is so much fun, she really shined in this chapter. Fantastic update!

Nicely done. Anya was a hoot!!

Great fun - and Buffy is as confused as usual - batter Spike, smile at Spike! Heee. Love the repartee!

well she *is* an ungrateful bint... pfft

You seem to be implying that our Buffy actually read a book. Not a chance. LOL

LOL... I had to giggle at Ripper checking Buffy out.

Well, at least they've found the coin... hopefully now they can work out a way to reverse things.
Maybe Anya might know something?... You don't live that long and not pick up a thing or two.

And the rest is....where?

Okay....I cheated and ran over to the LJ for more...more....more (and still am dying for even more). Enjoying this like a rich dessert (without the pesky increase in thigh size).

Love the moving about. Love Anya and Ripper (Xander who?). Love the budding Spuffy.

Excellent stuff.

Kathleen
looking forward to more *G*

great story, I'm hooked already.

LMAO!!! I'm really loving your portrayal of Ripper! Things should get real interesting with Anya in the mix. Wonderful chapter! :D

Lovely thickening of plot. I particularly like perceptive Tara - but Buffy is so mean to Spike!! Heee! More soon, please.

oh i bet anya can translate it, eh? love ripper ogling buffy, she deserved it after going off on spike like that without even knowing what was going on.....great chapter, looking forward to more :)

Love it!

Ahh.. now they should get some answers.

Just started reading. Can't wait for more.

P.S. Buffy's ready Lolita? I guess it makes sense, given her Angel relationship. ::grin::

okay, who's Humbert Humbert? Ahhh Spike's jealous... and protective...

Yeah, Buffy..a little less slut bomb with the outfits...

Funny stuff.

I'm loving this! The big bad doing his laundry; his sudden need to protect Buffy's virtue; Giles chained in his own bath tub....

And yes it is indeed gross that he's making like Humbert Humbert but who can resist Ripper?

Intriguing plot; fluid writing; I'm hooked.

great chapter

Ha Ha, Ripper.

OH YEAH - perfect revenge.

Oh... Ethan has stolen part of Giles' soul? LOL... I LOVE Spike getting to chain Ripper up... should make for some very colourful language once he sobers up.

Just now finding time to begin this - *sigh* Very, very intrigued! Can't wait to see how Buffy reacts to Ripper's reappearance. lol

lol...love that he's gonna put him in the bathtub...love ripper, great job with this chapter...off to read the next :)

U blow me away! This is gonna be a fun ride....more! more!

What a great chapter. Love all the wonderful snark and pithy observations! Looking foward to updates!

shrinkage issues aside, that is.”

ROFL I really enjoyed this chapter. And that line omg! to funny. Can't wait for more.

Loved the interaction between Spike, Buffy and Ripper. Ripper is such a dirty old man... lol! Can't wait to find out what happens next. Fantastic chapter! ~ Pretty banner! :)

Wow!! Ripper and Spike - an even better combo! What a blast!!

Ooooooo Ripper! I always thought Spike was what Giles knew he was headed towards in his Ripper days (and thus the repugnance) just as Giles was the direction William was going pre Dru (ditto)......neat!

This is splendid. I really love your stories, hon, you tell a ripping tale.

Kathleen

So, do they only have to break the bottle to give Giles back his soul? And was this Ethan's personal plan? Cuz he was supposed to stay away from Sunnydale.

Mojitos with Hemingway...nicking socks from Walmart...ah, the life of a vampire.

The Ripper rides again. Watch out Sunnydale. LOL

Interesting, will have to see where this goes.

universal cure for you know what - Viagra?

Great start. Love Ethan - he's such a jerk.

This is going to be great! Ethan and WH- what a combo! Instantly addictive

yes, i can imagine writing ethan would be a challenge...i always enjoyed him, but would hate to try and write him :) lol...great opening, you've got me hooked already :)

Excellent beginning. Looking forward to your upcoming chapters. Ethan is a devious character. Very intriguing.

Ethan in the hands of Wolfram & Hart, that is a scary combination. I am looking forward to following this fic.

Ohh...Ethan! I love Ethan. *squees excitedly*
Looking forward to more of this, my dear!
And thank you for getting him out of that awful place... although I'm not sure that being in Wolfram and Hart's custody is a great improvement.

Wonderful start. Pretty strong villians right off.

yeah Ethan!! with Lila no less....shudder!

Really looking forward to this, had it bookmarked but now it'll pop in my e-mail (squee).

You know I love your stories. and can't wait for this one. Great start....hum, chipped Ethan?

Kathleen

Oo, can't wait for more. What is WR&H up to?

I already read it over at the seasonal spuffy and loved it!! :heartfic:
But I'm gonna read it again... and again.
I hope there will be more soon.

Great chapter. Love it, Schez.

great start looking forward to more

Great start! I look forward to reading more. :)
