Beautiful story. Seems very fitting for them - reconnecting amongst death, destruction and isolation. There is something touching about two lovers reconnecting and going forward in that kind of place. A wonderful reunion fic.

That was...wonderful (couldn't think of a strong enough word for how much I enjoyed it!)

*g* Thanks! :)

"They were wordless, but they spoke directly to each other's souls in actions."

Beautiful! Loved the way they're seeking solace in each other. The 'Touched' vibe was very strong... And it is so refreshing that Spike was silent for a change. Their reunion feels much more powerful and meaningful this way.

"Spike answered with a kiss."

A perfect and hopeful ending! *happy sigh*

Thanks! The resemblance to Touched was very much intentional. :)

Awww....

It was very sweet, though unlike spygrrl76 I found it a little creepy that they were having sex in the middle of a city full of corpses. But then, that's the Buffyverse for ya. ;)
