¡Yay! New chapter! Harmony is a breath of fresh, vapid air. Italian! Thanks for the (overdue) apology; how about a 4-way?! I heart her so. Thu is as terrific as always. Career Days do suck! That little beat there with she and Harmony finally catching on was comic timing beauty.
Buffy's heartbreak and attempts to keep things professional are very touching. I want both she and Fred to be happy and loved! Robot!Spike, perhaps? (Also: yay Oz for putting the kibosh on involving the Initiative!)

Whew; I'm so glad it worked! I could picture the scene in my head, but it was hell trying to word it in a way that wasn't awkward and verbose.
I want both [Buffy] and Fred to be happy and loved!
Me, too; I think they all deserve some love and happiness. I'm trying to keep it from sounding like a "Buffy's Being Punished" story; it's just that there's all this unresolved stuff from previous seasons that I felt she and the other characters never had to face any consequences over or learn anything from. (Things'll get better for her; pinky swear!)
Hurrah! Another chapter! The bot body will be so good for Illyria - will she be able to change the way it looks to her own specs at will? That would help her blend in when needs be.
I can't help feeling rather sorry for Buffy, but she is just going to have to learn that other people can, and have, moved on - and it wasn't just until she was in the mood to take them back - both Angel and Spike have moved on to someone that suits them more.
Willow seems to be coping with Oz's girlfriend's existence OK - at least it seems that way.
And hurrah for Harmony! I do like to see her turning up like this.

Definitely; I'm envisioning snap-on interchangeable facial "skin" and optional non-blue wig (or, hey, I could give her Color 'n Curl wigs like Barbie had in 1965! --> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g1xnsGZ_5D0 )

Yes, my thinking is that it's a hard lesson that has to be learned sometime (and wasn't really learned before, other than reluctantly with Riley.) There's hope for better times in the future, though!

( ... )
They watched the robot in comfortable silence for a few moments. Then as their respective identities simultaneously dawned on them, they suddenly glanced warily at each other and inched their chairs farther apart. LOL
Things are looking up for Fred but now I've got to go back and reread how they got here as it's been awhile (I hate to tell you but you really should link this to the previous chapters).
