I got a new laptop at the end of August, and I jumped from XP to Windows 7, so I totally get how much of a learning curve there is. If it wasn't for the fact that one of the three other people I live with is a techie, I'd still be trying to figure some of the stuff out. Fortunately for me, she had WindowsOffice03, so it's all kosher right now.
Getting to the story, I can't WAIT to find out Spike's thoughts/reactions to finding Xander and Bonnie sharing his room with him. And his bed. With as long as Spike's been tied up to the chair, I imagine that bed smells very Xander-ish. And then the boy went and integrated all of their things together. I wonder how much of that is going to appeal to Spike's demon, how the boy just kind of unwittingly staked a claim, and I wonder how thrilled Bonnie was while Xander was doing it since I imagine she would know what was being "said" even if Xander didn't.
Although, another part of me wonders, if this is the way things are leaning, if something that Spike said in chapter 10 (I think) might come back to haunt him, about Xander willing to have sex with him to keep his daughter safe - would Xander think that Spike wanted to have sex with him to cement his place in the pack?
I like the idea of further exploring Buffy's and the other Slayers' demonic side. If nothing else, it's an observation that Xander to talk to Spike, and maybe after the latest end-of-the-world to Giles, about.
I wonder when Spike had the chance to gossip with Jonathan about Angel and what all is/was going down up there...
Possible edit: Besides, you're not getting out of fighting that easily," she teased. Willow and Tara are going to use the spell to tell us if someone is sending you a music o'gram in your head, but I need a good fighter at my side." I think there's a missing quotation mark after 'teased.'
Good luck with learning and transferring to your new computer! This was a great chapter and I really look forward to the next one when ever you get the time for it. ~_^
