Yes!!! Wanted to stand up and cheer for Buffy sticking it to Angel. Love how your having Willy watch the Slayer's back. Really cool! And when is Xander coming back home? Just waiting for the next update. Hope everythings OK, it's been almost a month since your last one. Take care. Now I can finally go to sleep.
OMG! Way to go, sweetie! Thank you so much for reading all my fic in what appears to be one sitting - were you bored? LOL
I am so glad you are enjoying - and forgive me for not replying to all your very appreciated reviews - and I'd just like to say how lovely it is to gain a reader who comments regularly. *hugs*
Hope you had a good sleep, hun, and that the next chappie doesn't disappoint. BFN. xxx

I just found this story today and am enjoying it quite alot. The plot and characterizations so far are very good. Dare I hope that some of the absent characters fall under 'lots of help'? I do wish that Riley hadn't been killed; I like his character and he would be great help against the Initiative. Ah well, I've got other stories for my Riley fix.
Despite your warning, I have seen no obvious typos other than a missing word here or there. Even yous Britishisms are fairly discrete. I think they are most disturbing and/or obvious when they have to do with the internal thoughts/life of the American characters. For instance, Buffy would not think it had 'gone six-thirty' or call shooping bags, carriages [I believe it was - could be wrong about that word]. Despite this I am really enjoying this story and looking forward to more. Now if you only also wrote M7 or Pitch Black...

Thank you, hun! I don't hink Riley and Spike would have gone too well in this fic together. I can't see Buffy ever having felt the need or impetus to get a vampire 'slave' if Riley had been by her side.
I have no idea what/who M7 is, and didn't know there was a fandom around Pitch Black (saw the film but a long time ago) - you live and learn, eh? I do run the fic past one of my American online friends but am happy for the 'not so right stuff' to be pointed out - just can't promise I won't do it again as have terrible memory!
Thank for commenting and hope to see you again. BFN

I have been reading spuffy for years and your story has a great plotline that has me begging for more.
It keeps true to the characters and I can picture in my mind the scenarios you write.
Absolutely brilliant!!

"Just being in his company again was doing all sorts of strange things to her slayer senses, not least of which was a strong desire to growl."
OMG. I have no words to describe how awesome this chapter was. Everything was perfect. Every. Single. Moment. Perfect.

I read alot of fan ficiton, probably more than I should but it is always a rare and precious gem to discover a story that keeps me fully engaged and anxious to read more. You have managed to do that, I am enthralled and I cannot wait to read more. This story is splendid and I cannot wait to see how it all comes together. Thank you for sharing...
Thank you so much, Sweetpea! Lovely praise, indeed. Will hope that the rest lives up to your expectations. BFN

Ooooo ... awesome chapter!! More more more please. Loved this one. Hope that Angel gets his ass handed to him on a platter even more. I hope Willow and Tara's spells work ... and the demons that are helping the Slayer take care of the intruders. Dang ... so much in one chapter. I know I'm biting my nails until we know what happens next.
Thank you, Tasha! You'll have to leave those nails alone, hun! *grins*
More should be up in a coupla weeks and you'll be able to see then if any of your wishes come true. *hugs*

Wow, what a great update. I love that Willey and the demon council has Buffy’s back, and I really like that Buffy finally let go of any hold Angel had on her heart and how she made it very clear that Spike would be staying with her. The wait for this update was definitely worth it, thanks. :)
Thank you, Robyn! Will hopefully be updating in a coupla weeks and shuold be packed with action - or not! BFN

Great chapter. I can't wait to read what happens next. I am glad that Buffy is a strong woman in this story and that she was not sucked it by Angel. Please update when you can.

Loved it!
Yep, Ethan as Giles had that convo with Angel, and found it quite interesting.
I'm expecting the Siege of 1630 Revello any time now....

Nice one, Buffy. Sock it to him right between the eyes!
Ooooh! Violence! LOL
05/15/2006 02:46 pm
Wow GReat Chapter. Well worth the wait. Hopefully Giles will get free. and Eathan will help Giles. Wish there was info on that situtation. Looking forward to the next chapter. Please continue to write and update soon and more often. Thanks for a great story.
Thank you! So glad you liked and funny you should mention Ethan - he'll be putting in an appearance next chappie. This writing malarkey takes longer than you would think - and me not being a very fast typist don't help! I do my best and hope you will continue to enjoy - and tell me so! *hugs*

Glad that Buffy is sticking to her guns, but she is hopelessly out of position to help her friends unless she goes on the offensive and forces Angel to withdraw. Hope you update more frequently.
*nods* Defo not in the right place for the anticipated Revello action. Should have a fair bit of action next chappie. I can only write so fast - and won't post until I'm happy with it (it was getting too stressful to do a chappie a week for both myself and the lovely betas). BFN, hun.

Excellent chapter and so much happening! I love the way you portray Angel's arrogance and dishonesty. Thank heavens the last of Buffy's romantic blindness is gone. Love the Hellmouth Council. Looking forward to more. Thanks!
Thank you! Hope ti won't be so long before more comes your way. *fingers crossed* BFN, hun.
05/15/2006 01:52 pm
awesome update!! definitely worth the wait! :P i'm so glad buffy told angel off but i'm worried about that deed thing...did giles really do that? i don't think ethan posing as giles would have because he didn't want angel to get spike, right? is it a bluff? i need to know!! more story now!! :) please?
So glad you liked. It as Ethan as Giles - but Angel is assuming a lot that wasn't actually said - naughty lying vamp! BFN, hun.

I really like how you're portraying Willy in the fic. I enjoyed learning more about him and the Hellmouth Council. Spike's interaction with Willow and Tara was wonderful. It's so great that Angel's plan seems to be falling apart. I loved how Buffy handled herself with Angel, her closing line totally rocked. Excellent update!
~ On a personal note, today is my birthday too! So from one birthday girl to another I hope you have a great day... Happy Birthday! *hugs* Irina

Thanks, Irina! Hope your birthday is going as well as mine - 'cos it's great so far! *hugs*
So glad you liked - Willy has sort of got himself more lines than intended as my soft spot for him has grown. BFN, hun.
