omg i am so pleased she set him free. Wish she had kicked Riley's butt though!
I wanted to have her kick Riley! :D But it would have been out of character - she doesn't beat up humans. (even she should - *sigh*)

What a dilemma! It will be interesting to see Buffy's response.
She loves him, so she'll take the risk. I'm so glad you're enjoying this!

"I trust you, Spike." that's all it took. he has fallen. very good chapter, thank you.
You know Spike - the tiniest crumb is enough and this was so much more than that.

This was so exciting! I usually kinda skim over fight sequences, but this was too good.
Oh, thank you! I'm trying to learn to write action effectively. I'm so glad you think it was good!

I think Buffy trusting Spike broke whatever defenses Spike had left. She touched his heart, William in this chapter. This was intense chapter, and I loved it.
All Spike ever needs - the slightest indication of faith and love. Thank you for liking this!

How can you stop there - especially when we know you've the rest of the story done, <sob> ;-)
Sorry! :D I still have to clean up the other chapters. I'm so glad you're liking this!

Oooh chip being removed early...had to happen cause with all the hoopla with Riley there's no way she could call him up in the future to have them remove the chip then. Awww he's starting to fall for her isn't he!? Question! Are you going to put some of the events from the actual show in here? I mean like Glory or Dawn...or will future Buffy not be staying that long? ah well. Great chapter! Shall continue to wait for the next.
I'd have to go through all of Season 5 to incorporate Dawn and Glory properly and that would make the story too long. I'm just focusing on the end of Season 4 here. Thank you for liking it!

Another awesome chapter!
And man is Spike ever haivng a good time sticking it to the Scoobies! It's hilarious watching him do it! It keeps making me grin. It's great to see him so happy.
Riley is a douche. I violently hate him- leave it to him to con his men into doing his dirty work. Jerk. Glad he got a verbal beat down (I'm rewatching season five at work, and we just got past Riley's vamp hos phase- I'm feeling some serious hate towards him at the moment).
You know what, I'm shocked that demons never went for revenge for Riley. If I was one of them whose family got caught by the inititave I've have been right on that. Guess demons on the show are better people than me. lol
And yay! He's gonna get the chip out! That makes me happy. Not only because he can defend himself and all that, but he can prove to those stupid morons that the demon doesn't control him. Being able to kill doesn't mean he will kill.
Can't wait for more!

I never thought Riley was the 'nice, normal guy' that canon made him out to be. I think his morality was in doubt from the minute he as a TA went after a student, then went along with all the Initiative cruelties, then staked Spike just for outing him to Buffy. (Torture!) If the demons had gone after the Initiative, I'd have been cheering them on. Have you noticed how the demons behave so much better than the ostensible heroes in canon? Something's wrong with Joss' idea of good and evil. Thank you for liking the story!

Fantastic chapter, using Riley's character but also his background in an unexpected way no one saw coming. I liked Willow and Tara's reactions to Buffy and hope Anya could become more of her friend. I wonder what Buffy is planning to say to Giles about his future actiosn and current prejudices?
That Riley's actions brought about an opportunity for Spike to get the chip removed fit perfectly. Spike wanting Buffy to understand and agree rather than trick or defy her was telling about his thoughts and feelings, even against that wonderful beginning as he thought of her as a dream. I love your writing and I feel absolutely spoiled, and amazed, that you manage to do so many stories, and finish them all before posting.
Just thinking of the Buffy/Spike dynamic gets me all inspired. :D There are so many variables. I'm so glad you're liking this! Thank you so much!
