OH no I do hope he wakes up and soon I think they need to talk.
Thanks, honey!

You can't get away with papering over the cracks when you have the sort of bond that they have.

OMG!!! Poor Spike, poor poor Spike. He hates himself that much, it's almost unbearable, his pain, She has to make it better and soon. *sniff* I hate that he feels like he has no worth. Not even deserving of love. Wow, that's really so damn sad. Very emotionally painful chapter. thanks.
Ahh! Now I know. Yeah, remember here that we're talking about doubts and fears that his conscious mind may not even admit to... but as Lorne pointed out, thanks to the bond they're getting to know each other probably better than they know themselves. After all, no one looks too closely at their own nightmares. I'm glad you're enjoying it.

Thank you!

Powerful chapter - I like the dream that took place and the points about Buffy always, always putting anything a human said abover that of a demon. Even if she doesnt believe in the demons bad party line, there is still a part of her that is biogeted as well. She needs to understand that so she can stop discounting people because of thier demon status/
Thank you!

I think Buffy is beginning to recognise things about herself that she isn't necessarily going to like.

excellent update. am about a week behind. rl often sucks. promise to start here tomorrow. thanks for the fine read.
Thank you and no problem! Hopefully once you start reading you'll get caught up in the story and find yourself up to date before you know it, but rl does indeed suck some times. And a week is nothing. It's not so long ago that I worked out if I posted a chapter most days, it would take about six months to get to the end of the series... It might be down to nearer five months now, but, in either case a week is neither here nor there. Thanks again.

Ooooo, good explanation sequence...Buffy still hasn't known him very well...
Thank you, honey!

Yes, so far, Buffy knows the face that Spike shows to the world but she doesn't really know the way he thinks.
