Loved the handcuffs scene. As well as your comment about Gods and Demons.

Thanks. I'm not one of those who thinks that all demons should be treated kindly, but the show has shown us that there are lots of different kinds. And one civ's gods are another civ's demons.

The God thing, isn't always a good thing but for them all I hope that it's a good thing this time. Never a truer statement was said, Buffy does have enough demon in her and doesn't need any more. Yup, Andrew did finally become one of the scoobies at the end. Wonderful read, thanks.

Thanks. I think the god thing will be very much what Faith makes of it, and this is a Faith who's mellowed quite a bit.

I liked the explanation that Faith's change does not necessarily have to be bad. i hope they all allow her time to grow into her new developments. It seems like Buffy is realizing that there are things she wants to ask Spike but is afraid to voice. That makes sense given how many things he is afraid to tell.

Thanks for all the feedback! Faith's changes will mostly be what Faith makes of them, and I think that's really important.

excellent read, thank you. faith and red are terrific; buffy being satisfied to be buffy and the slayer, is amilestone in growth. andrew, on the other hand, seem to be brought in when the writers (years to late) figure out xander wasn't fun. unfortunitely, it seems that the same writers wrote andrew.

Thanks for all the feedback. Obviously I'm a bigger fan of Xan than average, but that might indeed be why the writers brought Andrew on. I needed him because the Scoobies had to get their clues somehow, and Buffy's not at the school nor is Spike insane in the basement.

My Buffy is with someone who makes her feel like she's enough as she is, so that helps :)

I really liked "She was Buffy, the slayer, and that was enough." She needed to come to that realization a LONG time ago...

Thanks! This just seemed like the natural place for that realization for me.

Willow and Faith remind me of the old joke about how porcupines mate. I'm enjoying this story a lot.

heh! Thanks, glad you're liking it.

eh. Sure, plot movement is nice. But I'm sure we all enjoyed the smut, too. ::evil grin:: And you wrote it so well.

Also, I loved the spin on the "heart of a demon" thing.

Thank you! I actually did some research on the history of the word to make sure I wasn't just shooting in the dark with the interpretation of 'demon'.

And of course I'm glad the smut worked :)

I really liked this chapter. More than most I think. I like how Buffy has accepted who she is and who she loves.

I'm so glad to hear that, because I was worried about this one. Thanks for reading and reviewing!

Anya still writing her notes...so sweet and sad.

The Willow and Faith thing was just waiting to fold in on itself, like that magical quilt disappearing. Just temporary needs to fill.

Good that Andrew has something useful to do.

Thanks for all the feedback! I think the Willow/Faith experiment really worked in this universe, but I never saw them as a workable couple in the long term. Their similarities and common estrangement from the group brough them together, but in the end they have some fundamental differences.

well, buffy's starting to figure out a bit of spike's past,isn't she? might help her to help him with the first's attacks...lovely chapter, very much enjoyed it :)

Thanks! Buffy is trying to make aspects of Spike's past compute, esp since he's not inclined to share.

The thing is... I don't really like the idea that Angel and Spike had sex, in any attitude, ever. On BtVS anyway there really no evidence that ever happened. But I know a lot of people think it happened (consensually or not) based on some AtS (haven't watched) episodes or just on their own ideas about vampire/sire/sexual polotics, and it worked for this story.

Wonderful chapter. The love scene between Buffy and Spike is very touching.

Thanks so much! I wanted to show that my Buffy wasn't tearing herself up over not taking the Shadow Men's offer.

Then again, this Buffy didn't get a horrible vision afterward. Yet.
