I've really, really enjoyed this fic so far. The Spuffy relationship is sooo much more pleasant than it was in canon. Giles mention of demon eggs in this chappie did cause my belly to flip, though? Are you going to include the badness that was Spike's attempt at earning money by selling demon babies in this story?
I'm really looking forward to more updates!!! Good writing!

Thanks! I actually hadn't really thought about the demon egg thing at all! So I wouldn't worry about that! :)

Just spent a lovely morning reading and getting caught up with this wonderfully done story. THIS is a natural progression to what we saw before Buffy kissed Spike and panicked in canon. Lovely in every way but mostly because it really makes sense based on what we actually saw happening until they changed course mid stream.
Willow is a big concern here....hope she doesn't try to "help" her friend once more but with Willow you never know. She's a bigger danger to this couple than Giles or Xander at this point.
Really good character voices. Love that your Buffy, while fragile, is actively seeking to deal with her circumstances upon return...all the responsibility. I love her closeness with Dawn as well (another area they messed up IMHO....I mean Buffy DIED for love of her sister and then ignored the kid when she got back??? Come on!). Giles returning and not just buggering off is another part that is more in character than canon. Okay, ASH was leaving the show but they could have written many different reasons that FIT his character without having him do the stupid part of thinking she needed MORE responsibility! Sheesh. Nicely done, indeed.
Glad I got to savor this in one sitting...looking forward to more.

Thanks Kathleen! I agree with you on how Buffy acted after she returned, and on Giles' reasons for leaving. I think Giles would have tried to be more upfront with Buffy about her responsibilities. He certainly didn't have any trouble with trying to talk sense into her in the past!
I'm so happy you're enjoying the story! I really hope to have another chapter posted soon!

Good chapter. I am glad that Buffy has decided to tell everyone about Spike. I really like the conversations that Buffy has with Dawn. It was something that was sorely missing on the show. I also really like Buffy and Spike together in this story. I hope that Xander's and Giles reactions won't be so over the top. j
:) Thank you! Yeah, we didn't get a lot of sisterly time on the show, I think. Not even enough in the finale. I get why Dawn didn't want to say "goodbye" to her sister in Chosen, but I still would have liked to have more of a conversation that her calling Buffy a dumbass...even in a joking way. LOL...

This is great - thanks- I really like Dawn. She is snippy , but shows that she really cares for Buffy .
:) Thank you! I love writing Dawn and Buffy's relationship!
