Good God this is amazing. Every line is like tripping over a gem. I love how disorienting it is at first, and the theme of what Xander can see out of his eye, and Spike's snappy dialogue. And you combined two - no three of my favourite things - post-apocalypse, road trip, and Spike/Xander! And yet you created this entirely new world! The scene with the blonde vampire was both hilarious and sad, and the end just came up and hit me - I mean it didn't seem like a happy ending type of story, but I wasn't expecting that! *happy sigh* Thank you so much for taking this on, especially as a pinch-hit, and doing such a fantastic job!
Oh, yah!! I'm so happy you liked it! I'm always paranoid about pinch-hitting for things, as it doesn't afford me my usual couple of months of navel-gazing as to whether the story sucks or not. At the same time, I think that drove me to make it more efficient and not get too bogged down. Also extra happy I just kept the focus on them and alluded to things now. Thank you so much for the warm and fuzzies, they make it all worthwhile!
Wow, thanks! My writing's been called poetic before but I'm digging that it's creepy now too. I think that's one of my favourite writing compliments ever. Glad you liked it!

I haven't written anything much in an age and I'm so happy this was so well received, especially as a pinch-hit and all.
Double thanks in that I love late-coming praise, long after the warm and fuzzies dust of the initial exchange has settled :)
