A great romp this chapter. Happy Anya was a hoot, supercool Joyce, and plenty of emotional turmoil all round!

LOL at Joyce and Giles and this group is going to need a whole wing at the maternity hospital. Maybe Buffy should get off her duff and go find Spike? Fun story and good Spuffy.
Ha, you have *no* idea! Glad you've been enjoying this.

OMG I love this story please tell me you are going to update it right? And when does Buffy and Spike get together?
Nope. I'm going to make you suffer in non-updating limbo! :D (Just kidding)

"There's underwear on my lamp." I swear, if I have to hear that one more time this week, I'm getting new room-mates. My troubles aside, this is such a delightful story! Buffy and Spike, they're so angsty sometimes, those kids! Thanks for the update!
HAHAHAHAHAHA!! I'm sorry you have, um, inspired and slightly messy roommates ;) Glad you've liked it so far!

Ha, I'm glad it made people smile. Needed to cut the angst a bit ;) Thanks for reading.

Joyce was always very perceptive. Hope Buffy listens to her - and yes, Spike is an idiot for leaving her.
Spike and Buffy are always idiots; its our job to help them get over themselves.

Have to say...nice twist.Sort of Tabula Rasa,with the nice Spuffy touch to it. I`ve read all the chapter at once, and I was really surprised by the Anyanka talking Norwegian. I`m norwegian you see,so it was really strange reading:)
So I take it my translator-site inspired Norwegian wasn't too bad? And I do hope you liked what she was saying!

Poor Joyce, she got Giles being all reserved and British when he came back to himself, Buffy having a meltdown and Dawn worked up over them having sex in her room.

Spike is almost as bad, since he's blaming himself for claiming her and thinking she doesn't want him. And after all the sex, and kind words they had shared. I hope he opens the bonds enough to see that while she had been confused she does feel something for him. Now if only Buffy's talk with her Mom could help her appreciate what she has with Spike
Yeah, it's the trifecta of moodkillers right there. And I think Joyce did more good than you know (yet)

lol! Very funny story. Gotta love it. Always nice to see Giles and Joyce putting some of the kids to shame. Plus, naked victorian Spike. Really like the story, please continue.
Naked Victorian Spike with a splash of spell-induced horniness, actually ;) Glad you're liking this.

And the award for strangest ending to a story goes to...

"AAAAAAAHHHHHHH! There's underwear on my lamp!"

*Polite clapping, handing over of award.*
haha, well, the *story* isn't over, though the chapter certainly is. But I can I accept the award anyways?

Does the fertility spell also make a vamp fertile as well? If it does that means that there will be three babies born on the same day! So hope that's the case. Both Spike and Giles having children they both never thought they would have. Glad that Joyce had that talk with her and poor Dawn! Ewwww! Glad that you're posting this here, hope you catch up soon. Excellent chapter, thanks.
You'll have to wait and see! And parental sex talks? Ugh.

I'm especially loving your depiction of take control Joyce in this chapter. Certainly didn't see nearly enough of it in canon.
Yeah, I always thought she was a little more kick ass than they let her be; and Dawn could have been a little less whiney as well. Thanks!

ROTFLMAO at the end.......and I hope Buffy realizes that Spike left for her more so than him. If he thought his presence would've helped in the end....wild horses would never have drove/drug him away..
Spike and Buffy will have their...moment. I promise!
