Loved it :-) <3 Great job, 

Awesome!  Honestly never thought of that solution!

As fine a slice of 'if only' as I could wish for, good job.

Beautiful, plausible ending. Too bad you didn't work with Joss. I like your ending better

what a great tale! That would have been a perfect solution.

I always thought that it was daft for Buffy to send the Gem to Angel. Angelus would have had a field day with it! Excellent way of saving Spike from burning up!

Brilliant solution!  And so much easier for our heroes's  relationship without the suffering and angst.

I hadnt thought of that,  very cool.  Would have been a perfect ending.

As soon as Chosen (and The Gift for that matter) aired I was screaming at Buffy for giving the ring to Angel. The giant forehead didn't want it and it really was too dangerous for him to have it. But he destroyed it!!! Spike would have lived if he had it.
