Getting better with every chapter!  This one is a fic for all times!

Lovely to see another update. I guess times running out for Spike. I'm hoping that Gile will be able to defuse the situation, but Buffy does have a tendency to act first and think later. Luckily Spike likes a bit of rough and tumble. Looking forward to more. 

Giles sent Spike somewhere to get the chip taken out didn't he? And to try to get Angel to help. But of course Angel wouldn't even talk to Spike and I bet if Spike mentioned Buffy all Angel would do is threaten Spike and not listen to what he had to say. For once I am hoping the Council shows up soon! I don't think Buffy is going to be happy about the chip removal even if it was Giles' idea. How in the world the two of them thought they were going to explain it to her is beyond me. She is going to be a tough sell but Xander will probably be an impossible sell.

Oh dear, wonder how Buffy is going to react when Spike tells her about his chipectomy? Not sure about the wisdom of the scoobies going straight back to the crypt - they can't hide in the darkness because of the Initiative soldiers' heat sensing equipment. Loved the kiss! More please...

This is getting better all the time!!  (I could not resist)
