Chapter 37         
Okay seriously you need to like post more ASAP!!! I know it has been forever scene you have updated but come on you cant just leave us like that!!!!!  I will say the hole character death warning thing through me off a lot. I keep on thinking you are going to kill of one of the main characters or something. In fact after reading this chapter it took me minute or two to realize the character death in this chapter was Samantha.
This is the first Buffy Vamp. story I have read, not because it was the first one I came across but because something about Buffy being a Vampire does not sound fun to read. But saying that in the story description you do not say thins is a fic were Buffy is a vamp so I started to read. And I have to say the way you handled Vampire Buffy was wonderful. You made it work. Buffy was still Buffy just with some new and improved bits. Therefore you have changed my mind on Vamp Buffy fics and I will probably give some of them a try now that I have read yours. Ohhh and the purple eyes and no bumpies so works!!!! 
FINALLY IF YOU DO NOT FINISH THIS STORY I MIGHT HAVE TO TAKE A CHUNK OUT OF YOU!!! ;)

I really hope this will be continued! And preferably with some Spuffy + Angel threesome? They both care for him, and he hurts and need them. Please? And do not leave the wedding out! Come on! I really look forward to see what you come up with here..

Umph. I love Giles, too. Oh well, he's tough, like Spike said, and I'll wish him well. I'm glad Willow's back, and all on the right side. Interesting way of bringing Sam around to the story, works well.

01/05/2006 12:33 pm

hehe Sam with the kinky hurt from Drac hehe... I LOVED the thing with Spike keeping Angel's fangs. That was awesome.

You are without a doubt evil incarnate for doing that to poor Giles & Tara. Thanks. Can't wait to see how it goes. Been enjoying this from day 1, sorry such a lousy reviewer.

I was really chuffed with the update, been a bit concerned given the way the last chappie ended. I'm always up for a bit of Angel humiliation, It couldn't happen to a nicer fella. Brilliant.

There is a lot in this chapter. Excellent follow up with the Blood Oath and the justice that was served when Angel broke it. I really liked how you handled all of that. Bravo!!! Desperately look forward to more. I thought Giles and Tara were both death. Although very grim, this does at least give a little hope that they can come out of it.

Top update! You got through a ton of action and exposition. And dominant Spike was delicious.

11/25/2005 04:21 am
Chapter 36         
WOW!! What an update!! I was afraid Giles was already dead. Nice Spike/Angelus blood play for retribution. Spike must be feeling pretty good now which he will need because Buffy will be frantic. More story soon please.

Loved the Darla bashing. It was very funny. But Spike was right in punishing Angel. He put them all in danger. Perhaps Angelus would have honoured the oath but Darla could have killed everyone by then.

Awesome update! Love the little tidbits about the watchers. So glad to see more of this one! Can't wait to read the next chapter! -Lisa

Oh no I certainly didn't expect that. Poor Tara but at least it looks like she'll live I'm not holding out much hope for Giles. Was that Xander back from his exile? I can't wait to find out. Absolutely love this I don't care how long we have to wait for updates I could never lose interest.

Spuffy-smuttage very good. Sad for Tara to be insane again. Bad for you for hurting Giles so. And who was the caped crusader screaming "No." Okay, may not so much with the cape... spikespet2002@yahoo.com

10/15/2005 06:36 am
Chapter 35         
Mystery arrival is Dawn???? Or Willow? One or the other. *whip* End evil cliffhanger!

10/15/2005 04:22 am
Chapter 35         
OK, liking the Spuffy smut. Who is the mystery person? Is it Willow? Lots of enemies now; Glory and minions, Drusilla and Darla, Dracula and bride. Did I forget any? Lots of bads to defeat. More please.

"Groaning slightly, he willed the incipient erection away; he hated that his cock liked pain and perked up whenever it appeared on the horizon." LOL!!! It does explain a few things though, like why Angelus is such a sadist..

Chapter 34         
A freakin' wonderful and creative story...as if Dracula, Glory, Dru and Darla all weren't enough by themselves...yeah, lets put them all together and yeah, while we are at it let's give the added stress of Buffy being turned...lol... Love it...good writing, good character work and unique angle. I especially liked Angel healing Joyce... Spike and Buffy need a mommy... hated that they killed her off. It takes major spunk to have no powers in the midst of supernatural champions and still stand strong and fearless.

Reread this chapter. Can never get enough Dark Gift. {grins} The whole scene with the Fang Gang plus Willow and Xander walking in on Angel and Darla was just perfect. I cracked up the first time, and I cracked up again now. I can picture all the green faces and Cordy going off on Angel. Look forward to when you are inspired to write more.

There has been no movement in this story for well over 2 years!  Take it down already and spare me the torture of checking every couple of months to see if there is any progress.  My Christmas wish:  Please beloved archives, of which this is only one - take down the WIPS that have not been updated in more than a year.  Or, move them to a separate section dedicated to WIPS.

03/13/2006 03:17 am
