Oh this is so satisfying. Now they've had The Talk that they really should have had on the show and come to terms with their feelings for each other. Spike is convinced he's going to die and Buffy's half convinced she is so they're each extracing promises from the other. Lovely. 

That was an AMAZING chapter!!!!

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! So beautiful. I love your writing. The decriptions, the dialogue, the characterization, it's all so perfect and comes together in this magnificent package that's just awesome! The part towards the beginning about Spike was a nice lil view into his thoughts. I always thought it would make sense if Spike went into the battle expecting to die. Sad, yes, but logical. I mean, the fight took place in the freaking middle of the day and he went wearing the fashion disaster of the century. Anyhow, I can't wait to see what you have in store next!

Great story.  I hope by the time you post your next chapter, it'll be readable on bloodshedverse.  Thanks for posting the alternate site to read it.  Hopefully Spike will find a way to avoid "dieing.

The gremlins got you. There's no text. Moop. :o(
