Thank you so much. I'm almost speechless at such encouragement from another talented writer. And I understand about the shipping. This was my first ever post and I was trying to figure out how to do everything.

I am very proud of how this one turned out. And, sometime I think I'd like to write a sequel that takes place when Spike comes back during 'Pangs'. I think exploring that situation with this kind of past between them would be very interesting.

I hope my future endeavors don't disappoint.
