i've been silent on the reviews because i didn't have anything intelligent to say.  but just wanted to congratulate you on the end of part 2.  i really love this story, it makes my day every time it's updated.  i've enjoyed the spike pov, we know him a bit better now and his situation is fleshed out nicely.  really interested to see where it goes from here. 

Great end to part II.  Looking forward to the third part!
