the way you are taking canon and molding it to your story is amazing!  you're great with expanding the characters personality without going out of character.  this is the story i most look forward to.  i can't wait for more, and yet i'm sad it will end! 

 Another really excellent chapter.  I love the way you take us on her journey and show us how she thinks.  I'm surprised at her commitment to Spike and willingness to see his potential.  It's such a nice version of her personality.  thanks!
