That's lovely - sad in a way, but lovely.

That was well done. As I read it I could see everything happening, hear their voices. I'm still bitter the show is over lol.

Thanks for reading. It was a tough prompt, but worked out pretty well. It was sad when they ended it (and Angel, too), but such is life... or death, in Buffy's case.

This is really, really good and powerful.

It's bittersweet and very moving and brought tears to my eyes more than once. It's poignant and full of pathos and truth and pain without much hope. Except you know that no matter what Buffy & Spike will always be lovers on and off and have one another, even if there is no one else around.

Thank you so much. They know they are connected and on one level hate it, but on another level, know that they are all they have left. Together forever.

You are welcome. Indeed. And, as you know, they are not even my pairing. But this works for me and is believable in a way no previous B/S ever has been - and that really is saying something as I'm quite 'protective' and 'obsessive' about 'my' pairing *g*
