No, in my mind, I do not equate softness with being an airhead. I'm not an idiot, I know the difference. But like Buffy wouldn't know what a yin/yang symbol was? Everyone knows what that is. And it's the words you use to describe her that make her sound dumb. Like when you say she "whimpered." You make her sound like a two year old.
I do not think any of the people who read my stories are idiots, and if I gave you that impression, I am sorry.
As far as the yin/yang thing goes, of course she knew what it was...Do you think that Buffy might have been teasing? ;) I mean really, the Nike swish, shoe fetish...? Doesn't that scream "kidding?"
As for my word choice...again, I can't please everyone, and there are only so many words that can describe what I see in my head. If the word bores you, just skip it and move on. The story is much bigger than the individual words used to create the pictures.
I thank you for reading, and for your thoughtful comment.

What happened to the smart, intelligent Buffy I remember from the show? She seems kinda like a dumb airhead in this story. Gotta say, that takes away from my enjoyment of it.
Ummm...I don't think I wrote Buffy as an airhead. We all know she is anything But an airhead. I think I wrote her *softer* than she was on the show, and she's just discovering that she loves Spike, that's bound to make someone a little softer than they are normally; especially if the one that they just realized they loved is around them and they'd had a chance to Talk for the first time in a long time.
In my mind, softness doesn't equate with "Airhead." I'm sorry if you feel it does. In this series, Buffy is going to realize that she and Spike are a team, and she cannot be strong all the time, or always be the hero all on her own. They are a team, and they compliment one another. She's strong when he's weak, and vise versa.
If that doesn't sound appealing, then maybe this story isn't for you, and that's okay. :) Not every story appeals to everyone. But I do want to thank you for giving this a chance and taking the time to thoughtfully comment.

This is so mind blowing, so much happening. Just a little worried about what Spike said about his soul. Glad he had it because his demon wanted to take over and have Buffy. So glad he rallied the troops and so grateful to Illyria for helping him to think straight. Hope what Cordy's done won't muck everything up. Wonder what Cordy think's of her "champion" after he take's Joni. Wish I could read more but I'm beat, A very tightly knit story you've written here, still can't believe this is your first, kudo's to you sweetie.
Be careful what you wish for. And, you should be concerned about the comment Spike made. Thanks for reading.

Gah and the fun just keeps on coming. BTW, love seeing Holland Manners in the story. He was always pretty chilling in a way because he looked so benign.

I always thought Manners was creepy.
