I wrote this for open_on_sunday .  Wanted to share it here.
This site doesn't seem to be updated often.  Is anyone posting here anymore?

I post here occasionally (in fact, I have one that I should have posted here but forgot to) but it's not terribly active.

As for your piece: nice! I like the imagery and how you tie it in to their desire for each other, which I think was there even if Buffy felt ashamed about it and felt she was just using Spike (and vice versa).

Thanks. I was beginning to wonder if everyone had disappeared from this site. I found it just a few months ago.

Yes, I believe Buffy wanted to love, but was terrified of being hurt again. She had her issues.

I also think she didn't want it to be with Spike. That didn't fit in with her self-image, as they'd started out as mortal enemies and Angel/Angelus, for all his destructiveness, had never killed a Slayer.

Mmm...Angelus wasn't interested in killing slayers. He was more about destroying souls.

Buffy cared too much about other people's opinions. People like Giles and her friends. Her loss.

Thank you so much. I haven't been posting here much. I sort of forgotten about this community. Your comment brought me back to it. Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks again.
