Re: FIC: The Spaces Inbetween (5-9/?) NC-17

RW,

No, you're not evil at all. Sex with a head wound would be of the
gross, and Buffy and Willow have plenty of time for that. (Besides, it's
something to look forward to later in the fic.)

As for the previous chapters, I dug Buffy's playing with herself while
listening to W/T (man, between you and The Bear, that bathroom is seeing
a lot of action lately...), loved the heck out of the confession scene
(and the B/F explanation that went with it) and enjoyed the Spike
dusting, even though I'd been spoiled by reading the fbs. (I know, my
fault.)

Spike narrating his own death is a proud movie tradition that stretches
from "Sunset Boulevard" to "American Beauty", so I had no problem with
that.

And there certainly does seem to be something going on between Faith and
Willow in that scene in "Bad Girls"; it seems like neither of them can
bear to look at the other. Bitterness and jealousy? Why not?

One thing did quirk my eyebrow, though. In part 7 where you had Buffy
think:

>What were the odds that two girls, two best friends, would be in love
with each other for six years and never know?

Zinging the 'ship a little there, are you? Hey, a little repression
makes the expression all the better in the end...

Keep it up,

Dan

PS--also loved the bit where the nightmare Willow envisions that she
might be having involves being attacked by frogs :)

PPS--Man, you got an awful lot of fb for dusting Spike didn't you?
See, Joss, sometimes giving people what they want is also giving them
what they need...
