Wow! this is your first fic? You're doing a bang up job! This poor Slayer definately needs a little Spikey in her life! Sad though that almost everyone is dead or gone. Not a real big Dawn fan but she's always been such a strong presence in Buffy's life, I'll miss her, and Tara bellying up to the bar as the new bestest friend...fascinating!

can't wait for the next chapter. Hope Buffy reads the file and gets an idea of what Spike has been thru and have someone be gentle with him.
Hmm, do you think she should read the file? It's there and so tempting - but should she? Doesn't that come under research? LOL Thank you revewing.

The premise is awesome, and you've followed through on its potential well. I liked the depiction of a Spikeless Buffy who survived through season 6. I can't wait for the next update.
Thank you, Jesse Marie! I am so glad that you have seen it from Buffy's side too (isn't it just too easy to dash off to Spike's side?). Hope you enjoy the next chapter as well.

Pretty interesting, so far.  I just started writing fic, last month so I know how the "nerves" can get ya.  Keep it up. I wanna see where this goes!
Hey, Morrigan! Nerves, what nerves! *whimpers* I have been doing things with bricks that shall remain unmentioned on such a classy site! Feel free to email me you're experiences so far (we'll share!). BFN. xxx

I have to wait til next Monday for more.:( I was just getting into it. Great stuff for your first fic. Can't wait for more.
Thank you, wolf116! Sorry to interrupt your flow but I ain't the fastest scribe in the West - or anywhere for that matter! So glad that you liked though.

I had thought I couldn follow two Slave Spike WIPs at once and jl180's if so good, BUT (And God knows my but is big)....This is spectacular! I'm hooked and reeled in, babe. No confusing the plots, both excellent and well written. Your SPike is just as one would imagine under the circumstances. Love your Tara and I think I'll like your Buffy as well. Yeah you! and Lucky us! Kathleen
Thank you, Kathleen! I couldn't possibly comment on your but (LOL) am glad you are enjoying both fics. Am having to hold off on the temptation to look at jl1980's (and damned hard 'cos she's sooo good!) - OK, I have had a little peek, and am glad we seem to be taking different paths. This is part of a set of four Initiative/Spike-centric fics I have but the only one that deals directly with vamps as a commodity in this way. And Tara, what a sweetie she was in the series!

Wow, I wish my first effort had been this impressive. I'm looking forward to more.
Thank you so much! I have to give great credit to the betaing skills of the gorgeous megan_peta and Schehrezade_1 - they've done their best to keep me on the straight and narrow! Hope you continue to enjoy and review.

Thank you kindly, jane! Deep breaths - that baiting thing can damage your health! Hope you will enjoy the next bit too.

Ooh, this sounds really good so far. I'm loving the plot, and this is an awesome start.
Thank you so much! Will be hoping that next week's chappie doesn't disappoint!

Oooo, sounds interesting. Can't wait for more.

First fic? Nice job so far. Very intriguing premise. I'll look forward to the next installment.
Thank you, Carol! Hope you keep reading.

Great start. I like how Tara at least realizes the unethical aspects of this even before going. And do I see that Buffy's agreement to this is because she was thinking of Spike and misses him?
Thank you, Tamara! Tara is a lovely character with a solid set of ethics. And, no, Buffy hasn't given our sweetie much thought - but that will all change soon!

01/10/2006 08:59 am
Oh this is VERY very original. Can't wait for more. This should be very interesting.
Thank you, ZoeGrace! I'll be hoping to keep you interested in future chappies. Will be posting once a week. Unless I change my mind that is! LOL

01/10/2006 08:06 am
Interesting start. Hope you update soon.
Thanks, maryperk. Hope I keep your interest in the future.

01/10/2006 08:05 am
Very intriguing premise and I eagerly await the next installment! Well done! ^_^
Thank you so much, Kat! Will be trying my best not to disappoint and some more will be up next week. *grins*

well interesting start. I'm gonna keep on reading this story and see where it goes. I hope we get some info on Faith and the AI team and what they are up to in this reality.
Thanks for reading. You never know, there may be some mention of the LA connection - or not!
