you always make me happy, that's for sure...love the awkward I love you scene, hilarious and sweet...xander and the manly tears made me laugh..anyway, even giles with his logic...it's all good...this comforts me more than hot soup

After several months away from home (and from the internet) it was great to come back and be able to read all those latest chapters at once instead of the agony and suspense of waiting for each chapter to be posted.  I've started over reading the entire story from the beginning because you did such a great job of seamlessly tying the chapters together into one smooth, long reading session.  But oh no!  I've finished ch 88 and now it is back to the agony and suspense of waiting for a new posting.  Such torture!  :-)  Just kidding--I love your story and writing style!

very good read, thank you. giles really doesn't get it. does he?

Awww. It's very romantic: the roses, the chocolates, the tears, the expressions of commitment, the willingness to do anything it takes.

Giles is not helping his case by not understanding the seriousness of the threat the Cruiciamentum represents. That and the mysterious unreadable nurse make me think this story isn't quite over. Which: ¡Yay!
