Your poem was beautifully written. Thank you, and again, thank you for such a great story! It's very hard to put down to even go to work!

I don't know WHY anyone hates Madison?! I love her! I'd love to see her and her family move to Sunnydale and she attend UCS while helping out. Great story Tigerwolf and Tequila! Thank you for what I've read so far!

sorry but this was looking great til u brought in madison tooooooooooooo much madison and spike

Hmmm not terribly impressed so far

One thing stands out to me, Spikes been without blood a good while, and that seems very dangerous and unrealistic.

"Dawn was truly depressed that she couldn't applaud."

Pure genius! :D Also loved Madison reading Buffy the riot act. So very very good!

O don't hate her, I really like this one, but I just wonder if it's necessary to have a total OC so central to the plotline. But, then again, it's good to inject new blood in and show the magic world-class across the whole of the USA. Maybe one in my good old England would be nice? :)

Would have been a great fic without Madison. The Madison/Spike relationship was bizarre and had Spike doing asshole-like things. It was absolutely out of character, added nothing but irritation to the story and didn't further the plot for one second. There is a difference between angst and aggravation/annoyance and they were confused in this fic. Having said all this, I do love some of your fics and appreciate most of you writing.

I hate madison.

"Puppy" - Damn it, I thought that was done.

Finally, no more "puppy". This story is great without that. These last 2 chapters are perfect.

"This phase is fun" ? Spike is now a full blown douche bag. This sucks.

Spike and Madison suck. Their plan for Buffy smacks of being assholes. I really can not believe you thought this was a good way to go with these characters. Shit!

You've got to be freakin' kidding me! I love Spuffy but even I would tell Spike to go screw himself if he thinks even platonically sleeping with another woman is OK. This is not the Spike from BtVS. And one more thing, does anybody really think Spike would let anyone call him "puppy"? It's nauseating.

Again, this Madison story line is just so off base, it's ridiculous. Do you think Spike would take a nap with his new best friend (also not believable) when he finally had Buffy?! UGGGHH!
