Chapter: Forgiveness

Liked the Giles hug and then push away - his true love for his adopted daughter allows him to overcome his natural repulsion at physical closeness. Also, you are a tease:
But his stance, his demeanor, was absolutely different. Everything about the way this version of Spike carried himself spoke of humility and submission – and more than a little fear."
How did arrogant, confident Spike get to this terrible place and how is Buffy going to cure him?

Thank you for the update. You have done a fantastic job of showing how a physically strong women like Buffy can become the victim of an abusive spouse, and that the abuse is not always of a physical nature.
thanx...i don't think actual physical strength is what determines it, it's emotional health (insecurity, self-worth, etc.) glad you are liking this :)

I like Giles's different versions of the reunion. I'm glad he wasn't immediately forgiving, even if he did forgive her.
thanx, glad you're liking it...giles is too much like her father to not at least reprimand her for what she did

Very good chapter! That is pretty much how I thought the reunion would go. I like Giles' words to Spike about calling him Rupert or Watcher, very good!
thanx... the dynamic between spike and the others is very much changed since before the slavery .. glad you are enjoying it :)

Great chapter. I liked the way Giles spoke to Buffy.He reprimended her without "doing it", and that was good. I really hope Spike gets his selfconfidence back soon. I´m courous about the other vampires in the house, and their future interaction with Spike. Waiting anxiously for the next chapter.
thanx, glad you liked it...things should be getting interested :)
