What a fantasic story! I loved the way they found each other, you see the struggle, but it feels so right because you took your time telling their story. I love the way you used the Gem of A...there were so many potential story arcs the writers never took advantage of! I have to admit...I NEVER guessed the baby angle! Well done!

I've now managed to read all of your stories... so this means you must write more!!! 

thank you for sharing your work with us.  This turned out to be a very exciting and fun story -- and probably the best season four Spuffy interpretation I've seen.

Peace,

Blue

Thank you for your wonderful story :-D It was a pleasure to read .I hope you never stop writing! 
:)  Thank you for reading the story and taking the time to let me know you enjoyed it.  You've made my day with this review.

I'm just about to start posting a new story.  League of Souls, so I am still writing.  *hugs*

     Some of my favorite scenes in this novel were the conversations that Willow and Buffy had concerning Spike.  That's one of the things I missed during the latter part of the series. I laughed out loud when Willow got Buffy's dander up by telling her how nice Spike smelled!

     I adored this story so much that I have to tell you something that I'd rather not.  You should take a vacation from writing Spuffy and create a book with non-copywrited charactors.

     But not a permanent vacation!
What a sweet thing to say.  I'm thrilled that you enjoyed the story. 

Your encouraging words about my writing is very much appreciated.  I've written two original novels and I'm currently editing the second one to get it ready to submit for publication.  The first is with someone who knows the publisher that I want to submit it to and I'm nervously waiting to hear back from them.

That you've read my work here and think I'm published author material is very exciting.

I'm currently posting "Not My Reality" on my LJ and on Spuffy Realm.  It's all human so can't post it here.  I have the fourth installment of my vamp!verse in the works and I'm working on a time travel fic with my good friend.  We will start posting in about two months.  So, there is still more Spuffy in me to write.  But I will keep working on the original stuff as well.

Thank you so much for reading!

I'm just getting to this ending right at the appropriate season. This chapter could almost be a stand alone Christmas ficlet. 
Thanks for reading the story.  I debated about if I should even write an epilogue.  I rarely think they are needed, but I was in a gushy mood when I got to the end of this story.  :)

aw :) Great story, and thanks soooo much for not giving all those pregnancy/labor details.
LOL!  Thanks for reading.  And yeah, I could never do write the labor.  I've done that five times.  There's nothing romantic about it.  It's too real for me and I'd have all the girls who've never had kids vowing to never have any.  Some things are just best left unwritten.  :)

Hon I just got caught up and have to tell you how much I loved this entire ride.  I really do think you wrote Spike in character and had he been put in these circumstances he would have acted just as you have portrayed him to act soul or no soul, chip or no chip.  In fact every character was spot on IMHO.

You put a smile on my face with the happiness here at the end and I was delighted that Annabella got a MyTwinn doll (I assume that is the company you meant.....we have a few in our collection including one of me at age 5 and Jim at age 8)....a perfect gift.  Love that you continued that relationship too.  It added a lot to show him interact with the child BEFORE he found out he was a daddy to be.

Excellent from start to finish.  I especially love the irony of how it all began.  Harmony wanting to get rid of Buffy to have Spike for herself instead led to her end and the beginning of Spuffy....delicious irony!  The Gem's properties made COMPLETE sense!  Really well thought out use of that plot device.

Wonderful and worth savoring more than one time.

I'm so glad to see you were feeling good enough to sit up and read :)  I wish you a speedy recovering!

I'm so glad you enjoyed the story.  Your review made me smile in delight.  I'm thrilled that my characters seemed in character and that you enjoyed my Spike voice.  I just love that vampire.  :) 

I'm so glad that the Gem's properties were believable.  I haven't read very many Gem of Amara fics so I have no idea what other authors have done.  I just went with what seemed logical to me. 

Most of all, I'm so happy that you found my story to be enjoyable.

As they say in girlville - "oh, how cute" - wonderful Spuffy Ending - Joyce got to be a grand mom after all - NICE to have Buffy and Spike find happiness and love together -

Hope you take a little time off  and then come back again with another work and help keep The Buffyverse and Spuffy alive for all the FF community -
LOL!  Yes, I can't believe I went for an unber-sweet  ending.  I'm glad you enjoyed it.  I'm sure you'll be seeing more from me in the future.  :)

Aww, thanks for the little glimpse into the future - lovely, sweet ending.  I'll miss your updates - hope you have something new in the works.
Thank you.  I'm so glad you enjoyed the story.  I do have something in the works with another author, but we are still in the planning stages.  Here's hoping we'll have something to post soon.  :)
