Lovely chapter. The straight talking was exactly what Dawn needs. It'l be great if she gets the message.
Much appreciate the review and you taking time to read the story. Glad you are enjoying it.

Agnes is truly a delight! She might actually tone down Dawn's angst. (Thank God!!) Hearing that different is okay from someone who IS different AND okay with it has to help. Even Buffy isn't okay in her own skin half the time. In fact, I'm looking forward to Buffy's meeting prim and practical Agnes. I foresee definate eye-opening there, and Agnes could become the less biased sounding board she really needed.
Wonderful, wonderful story!
Thank you so much for your very kind review. I'm glad you're enjoying Agnes' story. Yes, if she ever gets to meet Buffy - and survives! - it will be interesting! But fairly soon there's someone arriving by train who wants to meet her.......

I'm really enjoying this story, thanks! Keep up the good work.
Thank you. Hope to update very soon. I might have to rush over to Alternate Sunnydale in Something to Sing About and sort out Buffy and Joyce....then back to Agnes.

I love Agnes, I think she's my favorite o/c I've ever read. She knew just what to say to Dawn. Great update
Thank you.That is a really nice compliment. Yes, Agnes has little knowledge of teenage girls. She is more of the 'pull your socks up' school of thought. Perhaps that is what Dawn needed!

Great chapter - send along some of those Cherry Bakewells.
Please find box as requested. Mind the cherry on the top! Oh, by the way, these are non fattening Cherry Bakewells.

What a treasure Agnes is! Wonder if/when they will all meet and discover they all know the same unusual vamp? I really liked her explanation, and I think both Dawn and Joyce get it, but I'm not so sure Buffy ever will.
Buffy's heart and mind travel a slightly different route. But then she has to, being the Slayer. I'm worried about what will happen when she meets Agnes!

Oh that was good, I am glad Spike brought her to her, it seemed to help Dawn, I just hope Buffy does not have a fit.
Well, at least Buffy should realise that Agnes is a vampire, unlike others of the Scoobies. What she does when she discovers the truth will be interesting.

thanks for the update, I can't wait for agnes and buffy to have some words.
Thank you for reading. Yes, Buffy and Agnes are yet to meet. I think Agnes is steering well clear of The Slayer at the moment, but then she has promised to have tea with Joyce.....

I don't think I ever told you how much I love Agnes. She even makes Dawn tolerable!! Looking forward very much to the next chapter of this fic...
Thank you so much for reviewing. I'm so pleased you like Agnes. She has a lot of people to meet yet. Is that a train I can hear in the distance?

Oh I'm liking Agnes more and more. She has a brand of common sense that is all too uncommon in the Buffyverse. Hopefully Dawn's chat with her will result in a bit less whining.
Glad you're enjoying the story. I'm hoping Dawn will realise that she isn't alone in being different.

Delightful! This was the talking-to that we all wished on Dawn. A pity party nobody attends. Perfect.
Thank you for commenting. Yes, Dawn had an incredible shock. It's hard to put ourselves in her place. I don't think Agnes would appreciate the teenage histrionics, though.

It's simply delightful to see how Agnes keeps touching the lives of those around her. She might not be a mother, but I loved how she handled the Dawn situation. :)The bit at the end with handkerchief was sweet. Great chapter!
Thank you, Irina. I don't think Agnes would get the whole teenage angst thing. She's very much of the 'pull your socks up' old school!
