many fine moments in this chapter: buffy exploding at willow; tara  protecting them from willow; and buffy promising spike, "This isn't over yet."  very good read, thank you.

Oooooooooo how delicious....  Fantastic story!  I just read the first 2 chapters and am in love!!

Can't wait to see how it progress.  Are you going to have Buffy progress thru the grief cycle?  I mean that was the problem with Season 6 is that she never went thru the grieving process - never got angry. 

Read both chapters, and really like where this is going.  A Spuffy story with strong Dawn and Tara is a reall;y good mix.  Keep up the good work.

Thank you thank you thank you for not making Buffy reject Spike the way she did in canon; I hated that, that Buffy would be so cruel.  Can't wait to see more!!!

This is how things should have gone. Lovin' this!!!

Excellant chapter. I especially like your view of what Willow did to Tara . It's something that should've been brought up in season 7 as something for her to atone for.

Awesome!!  I love this rewrite of season 6.  These first two chapters are fantasic.  I always felt the Buffy was never angry enough and you are dealing with that side of her emotions beautifully here.  And Spike...I love where you've taken him too and his relationship with Buffy and Dawn.  I cannot wait for more!!

It's about time Buffy got angry.  I really like this story.

Thanks for another exciting chapter - just gets better and better!

Yea Spike!!! Solved all of Buffy and Dawns financial problems, and it was completely legal. Nothing for her to get upset about. Except that the chip didn't fire, and now she thinks she isn't human.

Yea Buffy!!! I'm glad she told the Scoobie off and told them about heaven. But Spike was right, she probably should have told them at a time when she wasn't quite so angry.

Yea Tara!!! Love she made charms for all three of them, keeps Willow from messing with them, controling them. Of course Willows going to get really pissed when her spells don't work and eventually she's going to figure out why. Then she's going to get really pissed.

Yea sparring!!! Yea kissing!!!  Boo scoobies. :(

Oh boy - Buffy and Spike all really fired up.  I'm glad Tara's on board. 

It's always a better day when you post something new, Dreamweaver.  Your usual brilliant, well-written fiction - I love it when Tara gets more to do; the anti-charm rings are a great idea, and Buffy enraged is way better than Buffy apathetic.  Can't wait for the next chapter...

OH yeah......not over by a long shot and THIS Buffy knows what she wants (and cares not what the Scoobies want).

Excellent character assessment on Spike's adaptability.  He was always able to adjust to circumstance, quickly thinking on his feet.  That made him a fierce opponant and fabulous ally.

Glad they have the charms...No memory loss for these three this time!  Got a feeling that Spike is going to be the target from Willow and Xander though.  Hope they DON'T take off those rings ... ever!

Excellent.

Yes!  Great chapter & I love the idea of Buffy rejecting their controls.  Also really like the protective rings; that ought to make Willow absolutely nuts.

pretty awesome. 
Loved the way she just told the scoobies of and the fact that Tara is helping with protection spells. An the hot kisses at te end? nice touch XD

Absolutely perfect update. Glad to see Buffy's finally speaking her mind.
