Are you sure Buffy couldn't fracture Kennedy's skull? Good chapter and very angsty.
I find the Scoobies reaction to Spikes death chilling, yet totally in sync with canon. For all Xanders supposed 'heart' he never shed a tear for any of the people who died during the Sweet fiasco. While everyone else excepting, Dawn, were murderers, including Andrew. Good chappie.
They are finaly starting to get how hard this is for Buffy. But inn their defence, she never told or showed how much he ment. Now that Faith is here, Giles can make her the new leader.
I love the start, Spike getting killed and Buffy's reaction to it is very well written and despite the angst factor (which I enjoy reading, but have very little talent to write) makes it even better. Giles is acting like an idiot, but I expected nothing less and maybe that will change by the end of this story. The obnly thing I might like better is if you showed more of Dawn, but i can live without her so no problem.
Now I enjoyed this and I'm definitely looking forward to more chapters. By the way how many of those approximately ar there? I ask because it's always easier to wait for the end if you know how far away it is.
It was meant to be a oneshot, and got a little longer than that. Dawn will pop her head up a few more times, never fear.
Glad you are enjoying it!
Liked the behind the scenes of Faith catching up with Xander. Poor Buffy. Looking forward to more!
This is so sad--but I love the way Robin and Giles are seeing the consequences of their so very stupid and self-indulgent actions. I only hope that there is a way for Spike to return to Buffy.
