Xander and Buffy? My fic is inspired by a dream Buffy had in the second issue. In the dream, Buffy wanted to have sex with Xander, she took his hand and pulled him to her room while he objected, "I think it's a bad idea, Buffy." Buffy kissed him and his head flew out of his body. Buffy's eyes went wide with fear, "I'm afraid of the dark," she exclaimed. "Buffy, you are the dark," Xander's head said from its place on the floor.
The point of the dream seems to be that Buffy does have feelings for Xander but is afraid of hurting him, that's why she doesn't tell him about her feelings until #31 when she loses her powers and becomes a normal girl, that's when she thinks she can't hurt him and make him leave like the others. But Xander rejects her, because he's already in love with Dawn.
I guess she wants to kill Willow or torture her or something. She was always so jelious.
I love your story. I haven't read the comics but I read the stuff on the interenet about them. I'm guessing that Willow was away for a while on some magical retreat and got all powerful, and can now fly. And is almost immortal.
I love the new spike aswell
I can uNderstand why Buffy can't really bond with her child, becuase she has a higher calling and always will have. When you're a mum your highest calling should be your child, but Buffy can't let that happen becuase of her slayer duties. So she's afraid if she gets too close to the baby she'll want to give everything up.
I can't wait to see what Willow has to say about Xander and Buffy having a baby together, as she doesn't know yet. oh you have to make her reaction classic. LOL
I sure hope that you will be able to update regularly,
Aw, I'm so happy to see you reading my fic. :) I've never read a Spuffy fic with this idea and setting it in S8 is making it more challenging and interesting.
The idea popped in my head since #2 when Buffy told Xander in her dream before leading him to her room to have sex, "I'll be gentle this time." All fans had predicted that Buffy and Xander already had sex before.
It's a diffecult situation, but that's what makes it fun, right? And you're right, Spike has changed, which is the point of the story. Spike and Buffy aren't the same people they used to be.
I hope you stick around and enjoy the rest of the fic. :)
Thank you again for your lovely feedback!
So he and Buffy had drunken comfort sex and now there is a babe.
Waiting for the appearance of Spike.. enjoyed.
Are you also planning on having Spike lived as a monk these past years and immediately jumping at the "privilege" to become Buffy's loyal lap dog once again?
How about never even caring that Buffy had played "who's the latest slut" with the Immortal and that Buffy's "finds" him only after she's been knocked up by the hippocritical ass that "fangless" has always hated.
It's one thing for Spike to re-enter into a relationship with an impregnated Buffy and help raise the child of a man who's out of the picture, but playing second fiddle to XANDER!? who will always be in the picture and always have "real father" rights for the child of the woman Spike loves. Do you hate Spike or something?
OK rant over...
Calming down now...
You wrote in your summary that Buffy will have to face the consquences of her actions, I've heard author claim that one before... I hope you understand that such a promise means more than: Spike yells and is angry for a couple paragraphs and then HE goes to Buffy, apologises for his 'outrageous' outburst and asks Buffy to forgive him since he was being the "bad guy" by not just forgiving and forgetting.
LOL! First of all, Spike is one of my favorite characters, I love him to death. Secondly, Spike in this fic isn't the same Spike we know in Sunnydale. He'd gone through a lot and changed -which brings us to the title "Strangers". Both Buffy and Spike had changed since Sunnydale, both had gone through so many experiences that changed them. They're not the same people, and that doesn't necessarily mean a good thing for them. I hope you stick around and read the rest, hopefully I won't disappoint you.
