I enjoyed every word there,love! Beautiful is what it is.

awww, i think william's mom is going to be quite a good thing for buffy and dawn..and xander's starting to make me mad....i was just thinking, some giles/anne might be nice... :) great chapter, love :)

Kathleen, really loving this. Witty, charming, sweet and silly Xander working his way toward a bitch slap. Very much eager to see why things have happened the way they have and to see Buffy loosen up a little more and give Spike the chance he always deserved!

Wow great chapter - I love how you have including Spike's mom in this story. Excellant fiction and use of character! I adore it!

Great Spike's mom character. Presume she's going to continue to embarrass Spike to the max. Hope she doesn't quote any of his poetry. There's only so much your devoted readers can be expected to take.

You are doing well with the mother-son relationship. Their conversation sounds very much like the way I remember it in Lies My Parents Told Me. I also am enjoying the way Anne is so protective of Spike. I am very curious as to know how this will end. Sadly, I can't think of it ending happily for Anne, but who knows.

Oh wow, I am sooo loving this fic!!! It's adorable!

love the chapter. surprised by buffy, annoyed by xander. enjoying the tale. thanks for the read

I loved how Mrs. Pratt treated Xander, and how accurate she was in her description of him as well as in her comparison of him to Spike. Tara is so great, I love how she is able to help keep thing somewhat calm and under control.
