Ooh, ambivalent Buffy.  Also clueless.  Yay!

It was a good idea taking Buffy to the non evil demon bar. Hopefully she'll start questioning the initiatives role in Sunnydale.

Good to see the 'harmless' demons introduced a bit earlier and Spike making an efort to familiarise Buffy with them. Something I think he might have done if She and the scoobies in general had been even the slightest bit sympathetic and accepting instead of constantly putting him down and poking fun at him - except Willow who was occasionally sweet to him. Love the way Buffy is still wavering about her relationship with Riley - she really should have stuck to her guns in 'Doomed'. More pleqase. :clap:

Oh me like.... More please. ::bats eyelashes::  BTB - Have you ever written anything which wasn't perfection personified?  Really!  You can bring Spike n Buffy front and center without loosing the voice of the "gang."  I'm really loving Giles being more open n curious.  (This I know will lead too more good.)

Thank you for sharing.  Cheers!  S 

Best of luck with your new story - I really like it very much thus far - I always enjoy reading your works.

Enjoyed this chapter.  Love how both Buffy and Spike have to keep reminding themselves and each other that they hate the other.  Looking forward to more
