Here's my second offering for the day. I've debated with myself about posting it at all because it didn't turn out the way i anticipated and i'm not sure i like it. My beta tells me it's worth posting so i guess i will, and hope that someone enjoys it.

Loving it so far.

ooooooh! This is fabulous. I love the Dana-esque not-prophetic dreams, and that he's been waiting all this time. Also, the implication that the powers re-use the stalwart souls over and over makes me think that Buffy wasn't wrong to call herself "Joan" in Tabula Rasa. *nods*

I really enjoyed the bit about Buffy's emotional problems bleeding into Cameron's reality, but being shrugged off as not germaine. How about a haircut, instead? Stellar!

“No, Slayer. You didn’t.”

Oof.

Very original premise - and executed so very well. Even though she may be some version of Buffy, Cameron is still a different person, and it's a little surprising to care so much about her relationship with Spike. Yet I still found myself sympathizing with him when he realized she had a boyfriend, and of course it still hurts to hear him deny that she loved him.

Oh, this is fascinating! Really interesting universe and intriguing set up. anxious to read the next chapter and (hopefully!) figure out just what the heck is going on!

I've missed your stories-- good to see you writing in the buffy-verse again!

I loved how the story began as Spike traveled his future alone.

Oh, the champagne and...his denial...again.
