I really liked Buffy's explanation to Dawn about how she feels.

Excited to read more!
Many thanks.  It was a hard chapter to write, having to get into Buffy's head and that tremendously depressed state.

excellent - wonderful writing, just the the right amount of emotion to make my eyes blink several times, Spike knows not to hurt this girl and Buffy sorting things out in her head, I loved this chapter, so glad you are back writing this. I do need another chapter though - when you can, please.

Thanks!  A larage part of the delay this time around was that I simply didn't want to put myself in Buffy's shoes long enough to write her.  I tend to feel what the characters feel, or else I can't write their emotions in a was that feels believable to me.  And I didn't really want to sink into Buffy's pain, ya know?  Hopefully I'll be able to get the next chapter out more quickly.

Cheers!

Thanks so much for the update! I know how hard it is to keep going on a fic sometimes, but keep it up!
Thanks for understanding.

Great update, heart rending stuff. Wish one of the A team would get their act together and let Buffy know what's happening. The betrayal goes on. I did wonder if Dawn would pick up on Buffy's comment about feeling Spike. Given their experiences it's not that weird to wonder if he's still around. Really enjoying this fic, looking forward to more. 

Bear in mind that Spike has been back for less than 24 hours in this time line.  They simply haven't had time to notify her.
