Ooooo, Anya.  I always forgrt I like Anya until I actually catch a good Anya episode.  Very often in fanfic she is a very limited one note character.  I have not run into that problem with this fic so far, so I am looking forward to seeing how you handle her.

 A "non-person-eating" zone.  Yes, probably wise. :)

Angel cake!  lol  Was the pink icing made with blood, I wonder?  

Agnes is finally set-up properly - her dream come true.  Now she can really concentrate on helping others, as long as Anya doesn't blow her cover, that is!  

On to the next chappie.

what will come out of anya's mouth? very good chapter, thank you.

Well done

Sorry, i've been slack with the review for the last chapters.  Still here and really liking this story, maybe things will be different with Agnes around.

How did this slip by me?  Another wonderful chapter.  Don't think Dawn would call Agnes "dear" that way, it's not an American teen expression.  LOL at the genuine treasure map. 

Loved all the detail you put into describing Aggie's shop, the place sounds so homey. :) And reading Aggie's thoughts throughout the chapter was a joy as always. I especially liked reading about the potential hazards that go with catering to the demon population, customers eating customers is definitely not good for business. ;)
Too bad things went sour with Dawn, but I'm sure Spike will smooth things over. Can't wait to find out if Anya spills Aggie's secret. And with a name like Willow-Tree Tea Shoppe, I'm sure a certain red-head is bound to show up for a cuppa eventually. Great update!

Oh - I positively love this story and this section is simply one example of your  "spot on" style for Agnes and this piece - this section just reminded me again, why I love this story so much - it has such a lovely quality of humor combined with this great new Buffyverse FF character you created with Agnes Pringle.

excerpt:

“Didn’t your customers like it?”

Agnes made a non-committal sort of noise and turned away. There was so much she couldn’t tell Dawn, including the fact that Spike had picked up the angel cake and hurled it to the ground when she mentioned what the bright pink concoction was called! Such a waste and so messy, sugar and sponge ground into the carpet. She really didn’t understand what he had against angels. But perhaps he didn’t believe in them, or didn’t understand that everyone has a guardian angel looking after them, even vampires. Although, to be fair, she was a little hazy about that last fact.

don't know what happened to my first review - parts seemed to have gone missing.   Too Bad, cause it came out rather well.

What a great idea to get Dawn a job! 
I"m worried about Anya's reaction - I dont' think she'll particularly care that Agnes is a vamp, but she's got so little brain-mouth control that she might say something and then the Scoobies will hit the roof.  Not a good thing for Agnes, her customers or Spike...

 I am thoroughly enjoying this take on life in Sunnydale from a very different point if view.

Oh! Oh! I'll bet Agnes whips up a mean wedding cake! I am so happy that she is out of that dump. It worried me, her out in the elements like that. The smell can't have been pleasant to a sensitive vamp like our dear Agnes. This is all a very exciting development.

One note: Dawn's dialog tended a little British in this chapter. "haven’t got" would more likely be "don't have" and "you needn’t bother in the future" would be "Don't bother!" in American. We're an unsubtle race, more's the pity.

I hope Anya doesn't say anything, especially since Xander is the worst possible Scooby to say anything like that in front of.

Oh noooo!  Poor Agnes, just when she was getting her business going.  I suppose it's too much to hope that Anya doesn't blab.  Lovely chapter --  though the cake count was down.  Angel cake was fun!
