LOL! I can so see this happening! Poor Xander! He'll never know "normal" again.

This is an awesome story.

There were really too many days to choose from. Great line.

I love that they both cuddle up next to Xander for the warmth. And Spike begging them to save Dru? So true to character. I suppose offering you a gold star just isn't done. Oh, but I do know what is. "Brownie?" *Holds out homemade brownies with walnuts in them*

I also love Drusilla's comments about cakes and hearts and how listening to what Drusilla says gives Xander nightmares. Excellent touch.

Last line: Xander smile at the screen, where some guy was getting killed in an especially horrifying way, and smiled. Xander smile... and smiled? I'm guessing typo for something like "Xander stared at the screen".

Even though you are a better writer than I am, I'm presuming to offer my opinion because... well, words like hubris and arrogance spring to mind. This is the only part I don't like: where some guy was getting killed in an especially horrifying way; it just seems to general to me. I would 1) either leave it out, and let the user ( ... )

Thanks!

Concrit is always welcome. I figure if you care enough about it to say something that can only be a good thing :)

I've never actually seen any of the Saw movies, they looked way too scary for me.

Me either. I'm perfectly happy to write horror stories but watching horror movies? The old Bela Lugosi Dracula is about my style in terms of how scary/graphic I'm willing to go.

Yeah, sometimes even the trailers for the horror movies that come out scare me. Give me a good comedy any day!

Pretty, pretty picture - Spike on one side, Dru on the other, both of them attached to his 98.6 degrees of warmth. Very nice.

Indeed, Sunnydale truly has it's own style, lol.

I am imagining the scene right now and giggling. Somehow, I can see Spike totally freaking at not being able to help Drusilla. And chain-smoking!worried!Spike.

Spike cares for Dru, that's who he is, if that was taken away he'd be devastated.
Thanks for commenting!
