Kinda in need of a second act.  I see why you killed off Joyce, but it made me sad.

Classic with the vengeance thing!  

 

 

Very good. Loved it. Keep it up

Very nicely done.  Leaves room for a sequel but also is a great ending in and of itself.  I completely forgot that Angel saved Joyce.  Sorry Mrs Summers!!

oh, loved it. wonderfully done.

Oh I loved it, to bad Xander turned out the way he did, and Angel wonder what would have happened if Angel wasn't dusted when then Joyce would not have died too.

OMG!!!!!!!!!! SOOOOOOOOOO COOL! I LOVE THIS STORY! ARE YOU GONNA ADD ANYTHING TO IT? PLZ DO I WANNA C HOW IT PROGRESSES

Lovely story.

Great story

Very nice. I think you're dead on with Council behavior. I can so see them doing this. Power-hungry jealous old men that they are. Hope you're planning on a sequel, although this was great even as a one-shot. Thanks.

Oh wow. . . lovely beginning, and how you nicely (okay, neatly) severed almost all their ties to Sunnydale and sidestepping the Master. . . .

Just found this because of the sequel. I liked this a lot and am going after the sequel now.

lol, great read even the tenth time through :P

This was a really interesting take on things. Very unique perspective. You do that so well with so many of your stories. Bravo. it would be nice to see a sequel to this one.

This was one hell of a Spike - dare I hope to see more of him? Yum!

That was amazing and please tell me that you are going to continue this! I love the way that you wrote the characters and I am just sorry that Joyce had to die. Please continue!

I like this story and can't wait for Spike and Buffy to start to know each other and get the revenge on the CoW's. I agree with them not telling Giles..To me he can't be trusted. Hope you continue with your story.

Awww, is that it?

please continue with this great story, it's lovely to see how spike can grow to love buffy and i'd love to see how that plays out thanks

Yes! Love the fic. Very convincing turn on the buffyverse. Hope you have more of this tale. Thanks.

This is an absolutely wonderful story. I am glad that Spike was allowed to show compassion and the ability to plan. Please continue this story. I love the line. "An attraction that with time would bud and grow into a love that would rival all the classic lovers of literature and history" Beautiful use of language.

Oh, I loved it. Please more soon.

sequel? please!

Sequelllllll~~~!

Please, O glorious Mistress of Spuffy fanfics. Grant us poor fans a sequel of this lovely story!

Oh, please continue this!!! An awesome alternate start to the series, and there's so much potential in trying to take on the Council...lots of fights and adventures, etc. Great idea.

Sorry about Joyce, but it did essentially have to happen here so that Buffy would feel free to leave. Very cool that Willow will be there in England to help, too. They'll never see her coming.

This was really good, very engrossing. Although it had a nice ending, I would love to see a sequel. There is just so much that could be done with this, and well I love any story that has the Watchers Council taken down, in particular the evilness that is Quentin Travers. :)

Yummy, yummy goodness. Wonderful and completely believable!

I always felt poor Dru would never be well served with a soul. She was pius as a human then mad...all those vampire sins were beyond her control but the pius soul would have agonized.

COW are just how I've always seen them.

Buh bye Angel and Darla (clever girl you are) and Xander doing walkies (yeah!). Really looking forward to more of this treat. Excellent.

Kathleen

cool so far can't wait for the next chapter

Oh sweetie I loved it! But how could you end it there. It soo needs a sequel! Love this version of Spike. He's got some smarts to him. I really hope to see more, but if not, it's still an awesome twist.

excellent!!!
*begging*sequel pretty please

Wonderful! I love Buffy/Spike Season 1. Perhaps a sequel?

fantastic story. bonus ***** for dusting angel early. good read ending right here, but the rest of the story would be heaven. thanks

oh, you can't possibly leave it there!

PLEASE continue!!

that is a great story in and of its self, but for the start of a longer tale - I can't wait to read it... Really great work.

It's here, It's here. I love it!!!!! great twisted spuffy ficcy.
