Really good. If that was the real explanation for Spikes shameful treatment in A5. I could live with it.

Ooooh! I love this but hate it, you know? I so wanted her to jump in a chopper and head to LA - I always want my Spuffiness - but this is just perfect in its ambiguous finish. Will she, won't she? Great!

This is a stunning take on the upcoming comic verse. I do hope you decide to continue it as I suspect Joss is not interested in continuing the story in a way that would satisfy many fans of Spike and/or Spuffy.
This could be a Spuffy-friendly AU of the comic-verse! Brava!
Thanks, TC. And yeah, I do want to write more in this 'verse. I'm just torn - wait for the comics and fix what Joss gets wrong, or let my imagination run away with Buffy and Spike?

Hmmm ...

Haha, this was great. The ending made me laugh out loud. :) I CAN NOT WAIT FOR THE COMIC TO COME OUT (and it's on my birthday, too-- woot woot, much?)!
Well if S8 comes out on your birthday, Joss *better* make it good! ;) Thanks for the review.

Very good. Guess we'll have to see how long it takes Joss to come to the same place in his comic. Thanks for giving it a shot.
Poor Joss. He can't share a mere four panels of a comic without us all telling him what he *ought* to be doing. Must be like driving a car with 3,000 people in the back seat shouting "no, go left there! not there ... slow down! hurry, we're late ..." Thanks for reading! ;)

Very nice story.
Thanks, Inzey!

But...but, hey! She can't just *leave* him there!

Very good Buffy voice. And I have a feeling I'll like your version better than Joss', LOL.

Galway's in Ireland, though....does she go there, too? I'm confused...

Silly avoidy people....you want to know if someone's evil, you go face to face and check out if they're evil! Okay, enough of my soap box.... :D
Thanks. And much as I can't understand it, I'm quite confident that Buffy *can* just leave Spike in LA. Tragic, really.

As for Ireland, I think the Joss interview mentioned that the first four panels took place in Scotland. I couldn't figure any convincing backstory or significance to attach to Scotland, so I skipped over a land mass or so and decided Buffy's new dwellings were near Angel's hometown.

What with Joss sending decoy Buffys to Rome and me deciding that the Ireland twist is more interesting than the Scotland angle and plenty of other writers at the ready to introduce Buffy to Barcelona and Amsterdam and Prague, we're going to need a detailed map of Europe at the BSV ... Actually, I wonder if Buffy would like Madrid?

Excuse me, I'm going to go chase down a plot bunny. ;)

Sounds like it could be an eerily accurate tie in with the new comics and shows. Will you write more of this? Please?
I'm definitely thinking about it - especially with all of the encouraging feedback. Thanks!

Awwww - sadly clever. :)
Thanks.

This is good. Great even. I would love to know more. I there a chance you might write more?

Please, pretty please with Spike on top.
Thanks - and I probably will write more, but need to think about it. Y'know how it is ... once you chance a plot bunny, you're stuck in Wonderland for a while.

Well done! Any chance of a post NFA sequel , especially one where Spike fully believes it was Buffy skankin' it up in Rome.
Thanks! I'll probably write a little bit more in this ... just want to finish my other WIPs first.

I enjoyed this. I like your Buffy's voice, and as much as I want to scream at you to write more, this is a very fitting place to end the one-shot (and if it is indeed a one shot, you might want to mark it as "completed") as it is (quite obviously) Buffy-centric. Well done, and I hope to see more from you in the future.
Thanks! And you're right - I'll nip in and check the "completed" box.
