burnt demon meat. - ew that is disturbing.

Great first chapter.  Loved the part where Buffy tossed him on the floor.  :)
Nooo, how could you say that? Burnt demon is yummylicious! It goes well with pickles. ;)

I'm glad you liked it and we all know just how much Buffy loooves handling Spike, don't we? *g* Thank you for the sweet review!!! :D

Yep, you got the over curious lusty teenage mind down pat!  Looks like fun is to be had.
*grins* Why, thank you for the compliment. Haven't been a teengaer for almost two years so it's nice to know I've still got it. lol Yup, loys of fun will commence, hopefully. Thank you for the scrumptious review!!! :D

Love the lighthearted start to your story and Spike's preoccupation with ice cream. Funny.
Hee... what's a drunken vampire to do if not pester the Slayer for some ice-cream? ;) Thank you for the yummy review!!! :D

i love reading less doom and gloom stories like this one when buffy is all with the puns and witty-ness if only everyone spoke like her. hehe, sweet beginning.. more please :)
This is my second try at writing comedy story that is more heart-lighted than angsty so I'm aiming for it to be even better than the frst one (Denial) was. Happy I piqued your interest and that you decided to give it a chance. Ooh, if everyone spoke like Buffy... that would be madness of the best kind, I'm telling you. Madness!! :D More coming tonight, so tune in, gorgeous. Thank you for the sweet review!!! :)

Hah!  Great opening.  Big time UST and Spike's not even really aware of it.  I think this one is going to be a lot of fun.
You bet your pert little ass it's going to be a lot of fun! Sometimes the UST might make you a bit frustrated, but no worries, Buffy and Spike will be more frustrated than you are so it's all good. ;) More banter coming right up. Thank you for the delicious review!!! :D

Too funny to describe. While reading this I sat with a permanent smile (read: creepy grin) on my face, and occasionally chuckling to myself (since I'm all alone at the moment), if somebody saw me they'd be mighty curious as to what I'm looking at. Anyway, loved this. Especially drunken Spike, so my favorite version of him (as if I don't like all sides to Spike, really, what am I saying, well you get my point) and also the tub of chocolate ice-cream he seems to want so badly.
And oh, sweet naive Buffy. *sigh* If only she had a normal brain that would see the total hotness that is Spike in all his black punk-y glory, and therefor jump his bones immediately like any sane woman would. Buffy the Denial Girl. (Ah, to have my very own Spike, *sighs dreamily while eyes glazes over*)
Gonna end it here with the following;
- YOU! Puny human! Go write chapter two right this instance! I command thee!
*giggles* Just FYI, I LOVE creepy grins! And if you could see me, you'd know I'm wearing one right now. And I love making people chuckle to themselves! This just made my day. :D Everyone has to love drunken!Spike... he's funny and sometimes (pretty much all the time) he's a bit pathetic, except he makes it adorable. That's quite a feat. So this is me, totally getting your point. ;) We just love all parts of him. Buffy does too, though not yet in this stoyr, which is why she just might be mean enough not to grant him a lick of that delicious ice-cream. *glares daggers at oblivious Buffy*

Buffy just needs some sense knocked into her pretty blond head. Not even she can resist his sinister attraction for long. Spike too needs climb out of that infamous river. Mmm... Spike climbing out of a river, all wet and naked and running his manly hand through the mussed up curls on his head. *mind wanders off*

ROFL! This just totally made me giggle like a crazy person on meds. Your cleverness and mention of my A/N makes me very happy. Shall I call you Mistress? ;) The chapter has been written and beta'd and will be updated later tonight. Thank you for the amazing review!!! :D

Um, is it soon yet? Because I think patience is a doctor's clientele...or a virtue...and I'm not a doctor...or particulary virtuous, for that matter. Sorry, it's an Aries thing.

Can "soon" be sooner? I'll bake you brownies!

 

LOL, this review just tickled my funny bone. :D And since you're so funny and demanding, which admittedly makes me putty in your hands, I'll tell you... I'll update tomorrow. How's that? ;) Originally, it was supposed to be the day after tomorrow but who's going to read my update if they're drunk and celebrating New Year? Nobody, that's who. So I think you owe me those brownies. And they better be delicious! ;) Thank you for making me giggle with the review!!! :D

Yeah, can I have that yummy ice-cream lolly called Sike now?
LOL *giggles* I don't think I've heard a better way to describe Spike. :D You do want to lick him all over, don't you? Thank you for the funny review!!! :D

Gorgeous, drunk, Spike... who could ask for more? Obviously, I could. More, please! Lovely beginning.
Oh, I know! You could always ask for a naked, water dripping Spike fresh out of shower then cover him in chocolate sauce. Just saying. ;) Damn, now I can't think of anything else. Happy you enjoyed the first chapter, there's more to come very soon. Thank you for the delicious review!!! :D

LOL at the socks.  I'm sure there's an explanation.  Great getting an S2 Buffy story, too, from when she was young and cute and funny
Hee... glad you appreciate drunk!Spike's fashion choices. ;) They're quite diverse. Buffy from earlier season was certianly less doom-and-gloomy, which is why I prefer reading such stories as well as writing them. Funniness will ensue, and yes, I am aware I just made up that word. *g* Thank you for the delightful review!!! :D

12/27/2010 01:21 pm
I didn't realise you were so impatient! ;-)
Love it...
LOL Only when it comes to posting. I get a really itchy feeling and then I have to post/update. Thank you so much for your help and for leaving me a yummy review!!! ;)

Intriguing beginning! The characterisations are true to their personalities and you've built a solid opening scene that has a great deal of promise.

I adored the part with Spike passing out on Buffy and her reaction, including her realisation that she had never done the de-invite for Spike (which, really, is a hint right there that she must have trusted him on some level, and she still doesn't do it after Lovers Walk in S3!!!!).

Also, I always find it interesting that considering how dangerous Spike is, somehow Buffy never takes advantage of his moments of weakness to just stake him. Watching the show there are so many times when she could have just dusted him but for some reason chose not to do it. I loved your scene depicting just such a moment and Buffy's rather naughty thoughts whilst she's helping him. Plus, her discovering that Spike is a cuddler was just beautiful!!

I look forward to the next chapter with great anticipation.
Wooo... and don't judge me for wooing, you review just made me very excited. ;) You telling me it was in character makes me very mushy because I try to get their characters just right. Sometimes, their voices bounce around in my head, which might be a cause for concern. ;)

I assure you that Buffy kind of adored that part as well, even if she wouldn't admit it right now. Also, you're a woman after my heart! Buffy isn't stupid or careless, but for some reason she'd always trusted Spike on some subconscious level. Otherwise she would have desinvited him. He's killed slayers before, for God's sake.

I know, right?! They both get plenty of opportunities to at least hurt each other, if not kill each other if they really wanted to. Spike was drunk in Lovers Walk, but Buffy never tried to really stake him. She only threatened to. I think she enjoyed way too much slapping him around. Or maybe ogling him. ;) Buffy in this story certainly doesn't mind doing so. Spike looks like a cuddler, for some reason... a naughty one whose hands wander where they shouldn't. *g*

Thank you so much for the amazing review!!! :D

Hee! I like it. Lustful Buffy is a lot more fun this than the way she's in the comics.
That makes me incredibly mushy! :D And I promise this Buffy will (probably) not make you want to slap her. Hard. Unlike the S8 Buffy. *disappointed frown* There will be fun banter and UST to be had, so I hope you like that. ;) Thank you for the delightful review!!! :D
