I love how both Giles and Willow looked back on things they have done and their thoughts. Dawn and Spike were so sweet, I love how she told him she was sorry for not seeing him.

really good read, thank you. enjoyed dawn's apology

Great chapter :D

Yay! Spike is awake, pity Buffy's the one sleeping now. I liked reading the insightful musings of Buffy, Willow, and Giles, looks like they all learned something very important. I loved the sweet interaction between Spike and Dawn, i'm glad Dawn got the chance to tell Spike what's in her heart. I look forward to more interactions between Spike and his loved ones. Wonderful chapter!

well that was positively therapeutic....poor spike, poor buffy...i want her to wake up so they can finally be together...

Very nice chapter. I like the way you handle the cahracters' introspection. Thanks!

So much love. He's concerned for Dawn, when it was he that went through so much. That's our Spike. Looks like they all are seeing him through very different eyes now. Awesome fic, thanks for the read.

Brilliant emotion...big turning point for everybody here.

I hope this story will go on for a bit still...I just love it.

awwwwwwwwww very sweet. lots of sad though. :( Hope it gets happier soon. (yeah I know...coming from me that's insane with my angst-fest lol.)

Oh...and I just figured out where your nick came from. I was watching an episode of Angel the other day and spike said: "Where's a fetching mad scientist when you need one?" hehehe.
