Is there going to be more?

I can't stand to think that it's just going to end like that. And it has been half a year since your last update.

Which, granted, I have experience with. I have an unfinished story or two I'm looooooooooong overdue on. I'm just hoping you haven't abandoned this. Because it's truly a beautiful thing.

Beautiful.

....My God.

I found this fic on ff.net. I was just looking around, trying to find something good to occupy my time. This story is AMAZING. I'm not A Spuffy shipper, but this work has certainly kept my attention, so much so that I've fallen in love with it. I can't wait for another update!

A couple months late coming to this one, but can't seem to find the chapter.  Has it been taken down?

missing your stuff already!

any chance of an update? I'm totally addicted to your story, every word, every thought, every character is so real. I hope it isn't left unfinished!

I've been addicted to this story for weeks now; your writing is as delicious as your concepts -- which is often something that you can't say about many writers and their works (whether amateur or professional). Well done. I'm admittedly more of an Angel fan than a Spike fan, but it definitely made me reevaluate the latter character. He's certainly got some layers under those cheekbones, doesn't he?

In any case, I do hope that there is more coming of this wonderful story soon. Cliffhangers are always hard to bear as a reader. But I hope, whatever it is that you're doing on the late night that I'm leaving this comment on, that you continue writing and producing beautiful things for the public at large. You are certainly gifted in more ways than one.

Well I transferred from FF.net to here just to read this story and I'm glad I did. ^_^ Please update soon.

Ah... wow.  Seriously, I've been sobbing on and off like a baby from the moment Buffy got pulled back to the future.  *snickers*  It's kinda ridiculous. 

A very enjoyable story.  Sweet blend of angst and romance and just something that makes me feel endlessly wistful for _my_ chap.  Yanno?  It really touched me.

I look forward to the next installment.

This story is fantastic. I discovered it this september and literally spent days in front of my computer reading.  I love how you combined the history about Spike that was revealed on the show, without it getting in the way of your story at all. I'll be checking back often, hoping you find the time to put another chapter up.
Thanks.

beautifully done! very good read, thank you. chapter ending was not what i anticipated so, even more enjoyable.

01/09/2009 04:29 am
So, the dishes and the laundry around my house are piling up like crazy cause I started reading this epic and couldn't do anything else until I read every word.  This story is simply beautiful.  I can't even count the number of times my chest physically hurt because of the angst going on here.  Your portrayal of Spike from William up through the present is so heartwrenching, I've never come so near to tears while reading.  And this last chapter, his pleas when he thinks Buffy's returning his ring ... wow!  I'll be checking every day for updates, I cannot wait to read more!

I love this scene. It's perfect; passionate and such a fitting proposal. I saw your story a while ago, but refrained from reading it because I don't usually like time travel fics. But going back to read it turned out to be a very smart decision. This is one of the best fanfictions I have ever read!

12/22/2008 06:14 pm
Oh, you SCARED me!!!  I thought for sure she was going to tell him that was it, it was over!  Thank GOD!!!!!  Awesome chapter as always; Spike is hurting my heart in all the best ways; can't wait to see what happens next!

You can't stop here, plese don't torment us:)

Phew! What an ending and what a beautifully conceived, wonderfully written and completely addictive epic!
There are so many moments, characterizations and elements to thank you for and congratulate you on I don't know where to start.
Suffice to say there is a very large FtTP sized hole in my life that will remain until you update so I hope that is coming very soon!
Thanks for sharing your great talent with us! :)

As usual, flawless chapter ending. No one else delivers perfect one-liners the way you do.

OMG!  I am so happy to have an update to my very favorite fanfic!  Thank you so much!

12/06/2008 10:51 pm
Caught me totally off-guard with that ending.  You are a brilliant, outrageously talented, evil genius.  I love it!  So happy to have you back.  :)

12/05/2008 03:40 pm
I'm glad you took a different take than where it seemed you were going earlier in the chapter. Wow!

12/05/2008 04:38 am
Wonderful chapter.  Buffy finally gets a clue and Xander is positively helpful.  Whew.

12/05/2008 01:34 am
You have such a wicked way with a cliffhanger. But I forgive you, because your Buffy characters are so much in character, and because you drag me through every emotion every one of them is feeling (even when I don't WANT to feel empathy for thems as Angel!), and make me see and hear everything as if it were an episode of Buffy itself....

I'm holding my breath for the next chapter because... well, he could ask her and she might say yes, but what happens if she does and he screws up again? What happens if he refuses to ask? *sob* I so want it all to be all right, not only for William but for Spike as well.

AWEOME!

  Gotta say, I absolutely loved Xander's suddenly "...short."  I was sitting on a school library computer and had a small burst of hysteria that I quickly silenced after the staring.

  I was practically trembling as much as Spike, constantly wondering which direction Buffy was going to go in.

Oh my!!!  I get so emotionally involved in the stories I read and this story in particular has taken me on an emotional roller coaster.  I was so sad for Spike.  He's trying so hard and everything keeps going wrong!  I was really expecting a horribly sad ending to this chappie, so I was sooooooooo excited to see Buffy's simple, "Ask me."  Now I have hope that maybe Spike will get the love he really deserves in the end.  OOOH!!!!  I can't wait for the next update!!!  Please don't keep us waiting!

Wow you totally surprised me with this ending.  My heart was breaking for Spike and now I have hope that maybe their relationship will work out.  Please update soon..

It was a long wait...but damn it was worth it. Well written!! And the ending....omg you're so evil! ;)

12/03/2008 10:00 pm

That was fabulously agonising - and then the stunning ending.  Superlative writing.

Wow, I so did not see that coming! Wonderful!! So wonderful and just adored the ending of this chapter :) Very eager to see what happens next!!

12/03/2008 07:09 pm

OH MY GOD!! That came out of nowhere. I was just about to have my heart broken and then bam! Brilliant brilliant stuff. Please don't leave us hanging too long.

O. My. God. I have been waiting for an update, and this was well worth the wait! Every word you write is meaningful and moves the story forward, it's not just fluff or just angst. Your writing has always been fantastic! I was on the edge of my seat the entire time. Thank  you so much for this update!

12/03/2008 05:57 pm
It is so interesting how you connected their mutual culpability, how Buffy's own selfish desires played as much on William as his own capability perhaps to Love Too Much, to be consumed by his need to love and connected.  And while their actions in William's London life chained him to his new life as Spike/William, Buffy also help set William free from his social chains; wonderful connections.  His strength, I think does come from his great capacity to love but it also serves as a doubled sided blade.  Just as Buffy's devotion to her duties as The Slayer is her great strength and weakness.  

Dawn and Angel serving as guides was so effective and a wonderful part of the story.  Plus, how you bring in Xander and Anya having to live with some of the same problems, again, excellent. 

Not sure if you plan to bring in any of William/Spike and his early struggles to keep Buffy and the life their shared together as part of the story, probably you are not, but I loved that part of his story - thought it was beautiful and heartbreaking what his Dark Princess did to him.

12/03/2008 12:01 pm
This was lovely.

12/03/2008 11:45 am
Oh my Lord, its about time she got it right.  She had better grab hold of him with both hands.  Thanks for the update.

12/03/2008 08:03 am
OMG! I was so ready to be ticked off at you - and then you go and write the most wonderful end to this chapter. So glad to see this fic continuing... and with some hope for our fave couple in the near future.

12/03/2008 07:32 am
More later, but I just had to say this: I laughed out loud when Xander called him short.  I think you know why ;)

12/03/2008 07:29 am
Yes, I stayed awake to read it.  And yes, I'm crying my eyes out...and hyperventilating a little.

Well just...blow my mind, why don't you!  Gah!  Kill me, why don't you?  :P

I didn't know what the hell you were doing--I thought she was going to stake him, or make him leave, or...she was all with the nerves and...

And you, with the...well, let's just say, you were being way silly, my friend.  Good show :D

(side note:  Sorry for the lame review--it's late and my brain's been fried for weeks.  Be happy this is coherent, I think.)

12/03/2008 06:59 am
Hurray!  A new chapter!  I haven't even read it yet, but I was so excited that I had to leave you a happy face immediately!  :-)
