Sorry for not getting back to this sooner, just had to catch up on almost 7 weeks of reading since I've been back home, and everyone was so busy while I was in the hospital and still are. It wasn't as touching of a speech as Spike's was of course but it really worked well. You did a great job. Thanks Ariel.

the tone of that scene plays the way canon woulda/shoulda gone. good update, thank you

Nice to see someone stand up for Liz.

I like the concern that Buffy has for Liz and that she is trying to find a way to help her. I love how she stood up for Liz when everyone was turning away from her and that she pointed out the truth of their actions, I enjoyed Anya telling where many would be if Liz wasn’t the Slayer. Thanks so much for the update, I really enjoyed it.
