I wonder what it is about Billy that makes Spike feel he's more dangerous than Joyce. It seems like he might have hidden talents, what with Joyce realizing she can't go to different worlds without him, but there has to be something pretty big he hasn't revealed yet. It seems like no matter what they did with Shanny it didn't have the effect she was looking for. They couldn't be normal for her, and when they tried to give her normal she saw it as abandonment. It must have been a very hard life for her to live, hiding her feelings all the time.

I can understand that she wants a normal family but she can't and when her parents try to give it to her...she thinks they don't want her. Sometimes parents can't win. can't wait to see what's going on with Billy, he's keeping some secret maybe even from his sister. Great chapter. Thanks.

easier to understand shanny's relationship with her parents now. thanks for the fine update. "billy is far more dangerous...."that should be an interesting explanation.

I really like the additional background that you gave on Shanny. Her parents trying to do their best by her and give her what they think she wants by sending her away to a normal life instead makes her think that they don’t want her, that because she doesn’t want to fight demons she’s not good enough for them. This helps explain a great deal of why she might feel that her parent’s, in particular her mother, doesn’t love her. Between Joyce’s thought that she didn’t think she could go anywhere without him and Spike’s intuition that he is far more dangerous then Joyce, Billy has me very curious. Thank you for the update, I really look forward to them.

Yup have to agree with Spike, there is something creepy about Billy. As they say it's always the quite ones.

Poor Shanny, it's bad enough they named her that but she didn't exactly get the best upbringing did she? Wonder who she married though? Someone from the council but who I wonder, or if he it is important.

Anyway good fic
Update soon

Spike and Buffy’s child would not have had a normal upbringing. They did their best, but loving her was probably not enough.

Excellent well written story with great plot and characters that I hope you will write more of soon. Except why does Shanty have brown eyes when her parents have green and blue ones? That does kind of bother me a lot.
Thank you for reading and apologies for long delay in responding. Have checked and double checked with the eye colour gene pages on web. To be honest, I think you can have a brown eyed child because brown is dominant. I wanted Shanny to have brown eyes for good reason which will become apparent later on! If I’ve got it all wrong, then everyone will have to pretend!

yes, appearances can be deceptive. They’re all in for a difficult time with Billy and Joyce.
