Thank you for a great story! I found it different and engrossing, and I thought you unfolded the plot very well. I agree, no sequel is needed, but more stories from you certainly are needed!

ok...i sat here for the last couple hours or so and read this story all the way up to chapter 46...but but no matter how much i clicked...there wasn't anymore!!....please add more!!! You sucked me in from the beginning and I've gotta have moooooorree!!!!!!!!!

I'm in the middle of chapter 10 as I'm writing this, but I had to stop and review. First, let me say that I'm enjoying your fic so far. ?S not my usual cuppa?, being as how I?m predicting warm-fuzzies for the pair in the future an? I usually don?t go for that?but I?m interested. I must admit, though, my real cause for reviewing (and I apologize if you find this trivial) is to commend you on your Sex Pistols knowledge. All Buffy viewers know Spike's into the band, and therefore attempt to incorporate that preference into one or many of their Spike-centric fics, but to see someone both quote a song that is *not* the most obvious of the bunch (AKA: ?God Save the Queen? or ?Anarchy in the UK?) *and* actually know the origins of John Lydon's nickname is very refreshing. The Pistols are one of my favorite bands, and *are* my favorite punk band, so given that, and my infatuation-obsession with music, I had to take a moment and tip my hat. To you. Bravo, and again, liking the fic. Of course, you're 40-something chapters in, so it's pointless to say "keep it up", but I am anyway.

I love ?Sub-Mission?. Next to ?Bodies?, it might just be my favorite.

Also--and swear I?ll stop after this one-- Rotten didn?t much mind singing like he did because he wanted to challenge the conventions of what singers/music were ?supposed? to sound like. You probably know that already, but you?ve got a SP freak here, and the nagging in my brain wouldn?t let it go unsaid. Sorry once more if you find this review a waste of your time and/or space.

I luv your story and I think you're doing a great job of the plot and relationship in the stiry. You divided the time equally to each. I can't wait to read more. This is one of my favorite so far.

I can honestly say, your characterizeration is refreshing. He is not warm and fuzzy, but he seems to be p*ssy-whipped and proud of it. Buffy not declaring her love for Spike has me a little concerned. He is all out there emotionally and she has not given him an affirmation of her love and care. Even if he is the woman in this story worried about emotions when she just wants to have sex, it is not balanced. It is realistic.

I think you are doing a superb job telling us this story. I questioned your story in two places: (1) Driving to Seattle in about 5 days and then coming back to LA in 2 nights and (2) Angel not supporting Nancy's plan to get rid of Spike and Buffy when you haven't given the reader enough information to establish his reluctance [Angelus is the raping and murdering monster. No contrast has been drawn for Angel. A soul is no biggie in this story. Why does Angel care?]

i red this yesterdy, nd ws gonn review but my effin keybord ws freking out...so here's my review non the less.

i love it...it is well written, nd becoming the most liked of mine, i implore you too continue pl...explintion mrk doesn't work...grrr.

i should really just wait till you've completed a story to read it, because once i start one of yours i don't wanna stop til it's over. this is another of those stories, excellent characterizations, great twists and a well-constructed AU. i really wanna smack nancy upside the head and that's your fault, but in a good way.

This is my first visit to this site and I just read ALL 37 chapters of your fic. Great read. Very engaging story, and your writing style is great. It's strange having a Buffy character that is so different to the one we know so well. In my mind it's a different person but just has the name. Spike is totally spot on. We all knew he was a really soppy bugger at heart!

I really like this story, please keep updateding. I have to admit that it is by far one of, if not the best, AU I have ever read.

Even if Spike is being all "undead liar guy" that story about Joyce joining forces with Spike to avert an apocalypse was plausible. I loved the motel fight sequence - Buffy yielding that Gideon's Bible was brilliant. The dialogue, again, was excellent, and the story is moving along at a fast pace. I'm really enjoying the tension you're creating between these two - it's very entertaining.
