Glad to see a different variant on the Seeing Red theme.  Never did like where that went...  it was disturbing in all the wrong ways.

Thank you!  For such a moment as that, I didn't feel it was fair to just show Buffy's pov, which was only there to cater to audience anyway and win over fans.  More than one side to the story and all that.

First things first; you are my hero for counting the days and realizing that they were together for 147 days.

Secondly, this was great. I hated that it was let's skip to commerical break they seemed to do frequently on the show. This was a scene that we should have seen. Thus, thank you for writing it!

Also, I'm glad you pointed out something that always seemed to be glossed over; why was it whenever Spike said no and Buffy persisted it was played off as humour (Gone with that 'that's cheating' line) and yet here it was a OMG raptist! moment? That's total sexism if I've ever seen it. Actually, that whole relationship was; if Spike had been the one treating Buffy like that, people would be up in arms about the abusive relationship.

Can you tell I have issues with season six? lol.

Anyway, I really enjoyed this.  

Yeah...I hated how they tried to demonize him in that scene when it was just such an incredibly convoluted and f-ed up situation.

Yeah...If Spike had been the woman and Buffy the man all season...basically, SR was created to get sympathy for Buffy.  It didn't work on me, and many others.  Though some did buy it.

And I have issues with it too.  Big ones.  Which a lot of my one shots helped me with :P

Thank you so much for reviewing :D

Wow!  I'm impressed with your geeky precision and bow before you.  This is great!
Lol.  That's kind of a new one--appreciating the geekiness.  Thanks so much for reviewing, and I'm glad you liked it :D

Oh you brat, now you made me cry darnit! Rally though, that was very well done, it takes a lot to make me cry

Hugs, Lis

I always have mixed reviews when someone mentions crying--I don't mean to make people intentionally cry, but then again, as a writer, it's a pleasure to know that I was cabable of touching you so.  Thank you for the kind review, though you called me a brat :P

I love it when Spike gets away from the skanky-ssn 6-ho.
I absolutely didn't like the way Buffy treated him after "once more,with feeling" kiss,so,I loved it when you made her apoligize:)
This fic was as good as the rest of your fics,which means great!
Thanks for the sweet read.
Me neither, which is why I did a revamped s6 totally separate from this one shot.  This is pretty much me just wishing what I would have liked to see in canon (I hate those "cut to the next scene or commercial" moments).  Glad it paid off, and as always, thanks for reviewing :D

Wow! A surprisingly amazing calculation indeed. Talk about attention to detail...
Thanks Joyce ;) Glad you enjoyed it, cause I was starting to think people didn't like it so much...

That was incredibly painful, SI. Why doesn't she run after him? Why doesn't he just kill himself. Arrrggh - how can either of them stand it? Liked the 147 day time mirror. Nice touch.
Oh, I just wanted to keep it as close to canon as possible. Thanks for reviewing :D
