Wow - grown up thoughtful Dawn - maybe she'll be able to nudge our favorite couple together.
I'm sure she'll try! :)

Good luck with that one, Dawn!

Ah poor Dawn...hope it goes better here than on the show *G*. I always felt that Buffy was always attracted to Spike (hence the inability to kill one another) became moreso after Willow's spell and was actually starting to love him after Glory beat the stuffing out of him only to die before exploring those feelings. Others may see it differently but if I'm right, she already has the feelings just doesn't acknowledge them. I'm with Dawn....Go Spuffy.

Just keep writing this fun story any way you wish and I'll be delighted.

This sounds like that "when did Buffy fall in love with Spike?" thread on the forum...

I wouldn't say for sure that she actually started to love him in season 5, but she definitely started to recognize that she could have feelings for him (despite her vehement denials), and that at least he was someone she could trust. Her death sort of disrupted that - but I think that's part of the reason why she's drawn to him when she comes back, to pick up where they left off. (Except for the part where it goes horribly wrong from there, and that's why my Buffy is slightly less denial-Buffy - but only slightly...)

Hungover Buffy is kinda cute and I like that she finally realized Spike is a gentlemen under all that bluster. I hope Dawn gets her wish and then some...both she and Buffy need Spike in their lives.

Love where this is going..more soon, please? :)

I got kinda mad that Buffy could even think that Spike would take advantage of her, but that's just Buffy.
Dawn had some great thoughts, I'm only hoping Spike and Buffy might do what she wants them to do.
I think Dawn pretty much said what all of us are thinking. :-) If we can't have Spike for ourselves, we want Buffy to have him.

Your writing is so good. I'm enjoying every word.

It's a plan and it's nice to know that Buffy really doesn't think of him as being truely "evil". Maybe this will give Willow more of a clue as to she emotional state. It's just not logical to be unhappy after being taken out of a hell dimension. They aren't all that stupid. I understand living in the land of Egypt is something you do in SunnyD but Giles didn't grow up on the hellmouth. Oooo, can't wait for more, thanks for this interesting twist.
I think Giles has an inkling that something's wrong, but whether he'll put it together or not... we'll see.

i love dawn's attitude in this fic, it's just how i always thought she would have felt about it, although the show didn't really play it out that way...and i'm glad buffy quickly got over that "oh, no! spike may have violated me in my sleep!" thing.. *rolls eyes at stupid slayer*
anyways, excellent chapter, looking forward to more, love :)
Heh, well, you know Buffy... sweet girl, not that bright...
