Aw, thanks for the hugs. I'm just glad to have found your story. Total self-interest, I'm tellin' ya. ; )

And new chapter, woot! What was that Angel said last chapter, about Spike "not being the type to ask for help"? Shyeah. Little out of touch, there, Angel is. Really looking forward to the interaction between Giles and this new older Spike. How will he explain himself, and will this younger, not-so-jaded Giles actually help, once he knows what's going on? (And will he agree to hide it from Buffy? Damn, that would be a reversal, wouldn't it? Hmm....)

So heartbreaking to see this interaction between Giles and Jenny. (sob)
