Looks like *itch Buffy is back in force! Can't wait to see how Joyce interceeds and helps true love find its course!

Gosh Buffy's impossible!And did she forget the Angeleus incident and as for his change , how would he have *changed* if nobody had given him a chance.

This is an absolutely adorable story. I love the bond between Joyce and Spike. And granted, Joyce would have to be blind to not appreciate Spike's charms, but ewww... I like that Joyce was going to include all of her protectors in the hot chocolate celebration, and how Buffy has not quite gotten it right yet. Looking forward to reading the next two chapters that are already posted.

LOL ... Buffy's comment about irritating fake vampires. Too funny!! I love Joyce. I can't wait to see how each chapter unfurls with this one. It can be a really funny one.

Good chapter.I'm glad Spike wanted to save Joyce like that.
Update soon.

Good update. I can't wait to read how Joyce gets Buffy and Spike together.

it was worth the wait. Buffy just doesnt get it does she. oh well i am sure it will happen eventually

very good update to a very interesting tale. love joyce. thanks for the read.

Wonderful Joyce.

I really liked that chapter! It made me giggle a few times, which I really needed today, thank you!

I loved it! Nice mix of humor and action. I can't wait for more.

It was definately worth the wait. Can't see what else little suggestion they left for Joyce to help Spike and Buffy along.

The story is good but not realizing the potential of its premise. Joyce isn't just another adult who likes Spike. Joyce is Buffy's mom, the woman who diapered Buffy as a baby and grounded her as a child.

Joyce is the only person who can say "Buffy, go to your room!" and have it happen. Not only that but it's Joyce's job as a parent, even if she's not that good a parent, to teach Buffy what she knows. And rectifying Buffy's childish black and white morality is par for the course.

I really, really wanted to see Joyce ground Buffy. The little prima dona usually gets away with murder.

I LOVE JOYCE!!!!!!!

Buffy is one of the most stubborn individuals ever. Once she gets an idea, even when shown that she might be wrong, she still fights for it. I love how Joyce stands up for Spike and when Buffy calls him a liar for saying he would never hurt her mother she simply says that she believes him. And Spike was right Buffy would never believe him, he did have to show her. Thanks for the update, it was worth it. :)
