Chapter: Chapter 6

Cute, especially when she got all jealous of herself. So glad she got the chance to learn
I’m so glad you liked it! Thank you! This was my first real story.  I’d written and posted Fated already, but that was more of a sketch, just getting Buffy and Spike together. Learning the Dance is a fully fleshed story with a true plot. I’m glad it still holds up. :)

'I hope you dance.'  yes, the dance is good.  so very good.

Oh, thank you!  This was my first real story, with a proper plot and character growth, unlike Fated which I posted ahead of this but which was really only a sketch -- me just wanting to get Buffy and Spike together.  :)

I like this story so much - actually did a read not long ago - was feeling like reading a time travel story on James Marsters birthday.   Good Read.
‘Fated’ was the first story I posted, but it was more of a sketch. This was my first real story, with a full plot line.  I’m so glad you like it!  Thank you!

oh i just love some good angst! bravo!
Thank you for liking it!  I'd written 'Fated' first which was really just a sketch and this was my first real story with a plot.  :)

So I`m just systematicly going through all your work now, and so far this is my favorite. I love time travel fics.
And Xander got another verbal smack down...YES! I was grinning the whole time. God I hated that character. Also, great job with the understanding Tara, and to a lesser extent Anya. «out of all the scoobies, they were always the ones who were open to accepting Spike,
Anyway, great story and all that.
This was only my second story.  I wrote it in tandem with 'Fated', but 'Fated' was finished first because that had only two chapters.  Reader response to that was so good that I got the courage to finish and post this. 
I dislike Xander too and he does get kicked around in my stories (one reviewer got really angry at the way I treated him in 'Running Wild', but it was necessary for the story and no one else minded. :D)  Thank you for liking the story!  I'm really fond of it!

I really liked this!
This was my second story and my first proper one, with a plot and all.  'Fated', my first, was more of a sketch - I just wanted them to get together so badly.

Very enjoyable tale!
Thank you!  It was the second one I ever wrote and the first real story.  'Fated' was really a sketch.

That was (as usual) so good!, the last chapter was the best, Spike was finally Spike again!. I`m so glad your posting another fic soon (i did my happy dance), i really can`t wait. I hope both your family member and house are feeling better now:).
*Hug*.
I'm so glad you liked it!  Thank you!  I'm hoping to get the next fic up in a week.  Aunt and house are both in great shape now :D

Woah, I honestly don't know what to say. But I loved this. Really, it felt great, so believable and... great. I wish for more. ^^

Are reviews s'posed to be all lenghty and insightful? Because I really don't have much feedback for you. 'Cept that you did a great job out of alternate universe and time travelling. Which isn't that common. Bravo~

Oh, thank you so much!  I'm delighted that you liked it!  Any review is a joy, honestly, because it lets me know that I'm reaching people.  I'll be doing more time travel and dimension jumping.  It lets me get away from canon.  Thank you for liking my work!

That was absolutely wonderful! I loved it from beginning to end. I loved the part when future Buffy tells present Spike that she loves him, and his reaction was just gorgeous! You encapsulated all characters so perfectly, especialy Spike. Brilliant concept and even more brilliantly written. Well Done!
Oh, thank you!  This was only the second Spuffy story I ever wrote and I was so worried about ti.  I'm so glad you liked it!

Oh, I'm so glad you liked it!  Thank you!  This was only the second story I ever wrote. ('Fated' was my first.)  I'm so happy you enjoyed it!

*sigh*  :)

Wonderful fic.  Thanks for all the updates so close together!

I loved your take on Tara and Anya.  I know Anya didn't figure large in your fic, but she felt very real (great touch with her sex life suffering because futureBuffy got mad at pastXander  - can just see him sulking because of Buffy!).  Both women were very insightful and supportive.

I like the title, too - it's poetic.  Please write more - you've got a fan in me!

I'm delighted that you liked it!  I do like Tara and Anya, and think they were never given a proper chance on the show.  I will be writing more.  I'm having way too much fun to stop.  I do have a few more stories that I will be posting over the next couple of weeks.

Thank you!  I'm so pleased you liked it.  I'm still a new writer and knowing people like it helps so much.

Thank you!

Oops... My puppy (mini-me) just sent a review without the benefit of an actually typed message. 

She say's it's not her fault.  She was just sooo happy and just a bit too excited seeing Spike not only get respect, but finally luv. 

Personally, I think she's also a tad jealous because there wasn't one missed step.  Your porny parts were hot, hot, hot and yet so very joyful.  (Brava!)

Then you went and righted all the wrongs in the Jossverse.  (We hated the supposed "white hats" acting so superior, dismissive and can we ever forget... abusive. We loved (your) Tara.  She never seem like the type to stand silently by. Especially, after suffering at the hands of her own family.)

So, thank you for a sharing a truly _perfect_ spuffy story.  Please keep on writing or posting!. Now, we're off to read your other.  Ta! :)   





With me, it's my kittens.  Thank you!  I'm so glad the story came across the way I wanted it.  For me, having the porn  and the romance mixed together makes them both more intense  And I do agree with you about the 'white hats." They're awfully intolerant.  Tara seemed the most grounded and balanced.  A true-blue lady.  That's why I had her survive the shooting here.  And I absolutely will keep on writing.  I'm having way too much fun to stop!

*sigh*  Goooooood ending.  Hope you've got more fics stored up somewhere.  Can't wait to read more of your work.  Amazing, amazing story.  Really really enjoyed it.  Thanks so much.
I'm so happy you liked it!  I've only been writing Spuffy for 3 months, so people's reactions just blow me away!  Thank you!
