I've been following this from the beginning, and GOD it has to be my favorite of all your stories-which is saying a lot because I practically worship "What she Deserves." I don't have words for how this story makes me feel, but about this chapter specifically...I pretty much almost cried.
I used to feel so bad for Buffy because all she wanted was to be married and to be a bride, so when she says "I need to call my sister. I have to tell her I'm going to be a bride." I just felt so much for her in that moment. And Spike, the proper Victorian...I have a feeling all he ever really wanted was to be a good husband. I know this'll sound really soppy and all, but I think this is what I'd always dreamed for the both of them, if they couldn't just be friends, or enemies, or lovers...they might as well get hitched! You're writing always makes me feel so extraordinarily. I'm waiting with bated breathed for more.
