Haha, I loved Darla's anger at being beaten by Angel and Spike of all people. And Drusilla's comments were cracking me up today. Great job.

[redsrule1]

Thanks! I wasn't really sure what I was going to do with Darla until I realized that it probably wouldn't sit too well for the matriarch to be beaten out by the other vamps & both slayers! Glad you enjoyed Dru-- she's not the easiest to write.

Thanks again!

Oh so many illegal moves, but such crowd pleasers, and can I just say, Spike and Faith, sex on legs, both of them!

[redsrule1]

I, for one, would like to see that move Darla did! And yeah, I'd like to see Spike & Faith dance myself!

[scarlettlily]

Very nice new part, I love that now they are all trying to break the rules and become more acrobatic with their routines. And nice job with Willow trying to hide her partner's deficiencies. Can't wait to see more.

[redsrule1]

Wouldn't want that Slayer and vampire strength to go to waste, right?

Thanks!

I'm so happy I finally have something to look forward to on Thursdays! This is too good.

[redsrule1]

Thanks again. And the way it's looking, you'll have something to look forward to on Thursdays for quite a while, 'cause it's going to take some time to get through all these episodes. ::loves the feedback but mind boggles at the amount of writing to be done::

I dunno how you go about picking your songs, but...Are you a RENT fan at all? My roomie and I were watching it yesterday for the eighty bazillionth time, and I was thinking "The Tango: Maureen" could be ridiculously fun for one of the couples. If you don't know if, YouTube surely has videos. Anyway, just suggesting in case you're stuck for a song, or really just wanna humor me and put it in there! :D I know I'd be stuck for ideas by now, writing as much of this as often as you have. Who am I kidding, I'd have gotten distracted by the third installment and sadly, never finished it. So, uber-kudos!

[redsrule1]

I haven't actually seen "Rent," although my sisters are into it. I'll have to check out that song. Thanks for the tip!

I dunno how you go about picking your songs
Being a teacher myself, I have quite a bit of dance music, plus I've been using www.ballroomdancers.com for more ideas. I just search through my rumbas, for instance, looking for songs that fit the couple and are likely to be recognized by a lot of people.

gotten distracted by the third installment
Oh, distractions abound, but my beta/SO tries to keep me in line. Plus, the feedback has been good, so that's like, you know, crack.

Just wanted to add, I'm reading your 'Day in the Life of Puppet Angel' fic and had to stop so I could breathe. Just about when Spike had the dream about all the little PuppetAngels, was when I laughed so hard I was almost wheezing. Good job!!! Although if I die it's all your fault.

[redsrule1]

if I die it's all your fault
Hey, the disclaimer says that Joss owns all the characters, etc. So-- it's his fault. Yeah, that's it.

I'm glad you're enjoying other stories as well. Getting all your comments has been great.
