So nice to see a decent reaction from Xander! 

i love the difference in xander's behavior in this, so much more compassionate than in the show...poor spike...she really needs to make with the tlc, for sure :)

Oooo ... Xander knows. Now that was a nice twist. Loved the chapter. I almost thought it was Dawn or something. Didn't expect Xander, and I love that choice! {heads to the next chapter which looks like it is the last based on the fic now saying complete}
