Glad that I did not let my bais against the BAS sexual triad keep me from reading this work - I really like how you changed the events of this period in Sunnydale. 

Like your style very much -

That was wonderful. I hope there's a sequel.

I stil felt like this was more of a Angelus/Buffy fic than Spuffy :( Even though I love the story (I actually like the Angelus/Buffy pairing also), I felt that Spike was like a rebound for her or something. Poor Spike ;(
Either way, really good story, more porn than plot, but really well done.

I am purely upset about only one thing;Spike thinkin' that Buffy used him and Buffy thinkin' Spike used her. It could've ended in a better way,more Spuffy and less stuffy,maybe.But it was nice and I enjoyed it.

the ending is perfect. it sets up nicely for the next seasons and is a believable and realistic ending to the fic. it also adds such an interesting twist to the dracula episode. i especially like how you show spike throughout the fic, sort of desperate and confused and finally determined with a side of "protest too much." but could willow honestly keep her mouth shut?

well then we all know spike will be back, but I really love the "behind closed doors story." Although of course willow would have had to keep her mouth shut all this time too. but maybe after sleeping with buffy she'd be inclined to, I certainly think it could have put her on the path to Tara. I would have liked to have at least seen Buffy and Spike end up together though.
Thanks for sticking with it and leaving all these wonderful reviews. Not only are you a great writer, you are a terrific reader and reviewer too! See you on the boards.

Yeah, I got a lot of flack about the ending not being "Spuffy" enough. But I think it adds a whole new dimension to the coming seasons. And even in the show they don't ever really wind up TOGETHER together. That would take away from the drama and angst of it all.

I really enjoyed reading your work! Thanks for putting in the effort for the rest of us to appreciate. Yes, I would have loved a Spuffier ending, but I agree that it was realistic considering the characters.
Thanks so much Tina. Glad you enjoyed.

*nods* The end was indeed a surprise, not what I expected. ~ I enjoyed reading so far; thanks for sharing.
Thanks cordykitten. You have been a faithful reviewer, and I appreciate that. I thought I had given away the suspense of the ending by starting to incorporate episode dialogue, but I guess everyone was too far immersed in this version of events to see the parallels. So glad I could suprise you. I hate predictable endings (or sad endings). Thanks again.

Nice ending, I think you did a great job, and I hope you write something else soon.
Thanks, and yes I should be posting something else soon, I've been talking to Dia about it, but need to see if I can get permissions for it or how to do it since it is continuinig something someone else started.

Great story and very reasonable conclusion. Thanks for giving us this version.
Thanks for the review and the praise. That was the struggle with this plot- to make it reasonable.

So uhh... sequel? I think so.
See above. You aren't the only one to suggest it, so I suppose I'll think about it. Email me if you have suggestions. Thanks for the support.

Heeeey.... no happy ending??? Sequel???
Sorry, ends back at canon. So, probably no sequel. I will start posting a new fic soon though. Thanks for the support.
