Wooh - way on the plotty and symbolism. Spike might be in trouble, and I'm not too sure about Willow either. Great chapter!

What a chapter! So much packed into it. Now that Woods' is here, wonder how this Spike it going to handle it and the Turok Han are on the lose, the young slayers need to remember just who they are. They were starting to get to comfortable and that was a wakeup call. Poor Spike, I hope that Joyce realize the meaning in her youngest's statement and just how much he loves her eldest as well. Can't continue on tonight, but had to read something, MC. Will read more tomorrow. Some days are still better than others. Wonderful chapter, thanks.

Spike really needs to start sharing with Buffy. I understand why he would want to keep some thigns private, but if they're just going to bite him in the butt later he might as well get it out on the table now. I'm curious how Willow will take it now that she knows things with Faith are coming to a close. And how they will keep Robin from finding out about Spike

very good update, thank you.

man, poor spike...the first is really messing with him... :( great update, on to read the next :)
