NICE CHAPTER - a good mix of emotional context for the women and the connection between Buffy and Spike - It's great to have a Buffy that is more open to thinking about what "might have happened" instead of the "auto mode thinking the worse." 

While it is very much in keeping with the series regarding her concept of Spike - except for last season, all that negativity is hard to take.  The "softer side of Buffy" is a good change - especially after working with some of the imagery from season six -

Thanks loads for the very nice credits on the banner and mention of WWW - much appreciated.

 :) I hope Buffy and Spike have a nice chat soon.  good read, thanks for sharing *hugs*

Very sweet scene between Buffy and Spike. I love the way you wrote the play of emotions going on with Buffy.

I'm so glad Buffy didn't "hit first, get explanation later".  I'm very proud of her!  I'm happy that she's going to help Spike.  Hopefully now she can see the other side of him.

love it please update soon
