Hey, thanks for commenting! I'm glad you liked it. I must have read too many stories that dealt with Willow re-souling either Angelus or Spike, and so I knew even before this story fully developed that it needed to have a modification of the re-souling spell somewhere. Add to that the creepy scenes with Buffy's "demonic passenger" after her return from the dead on the show (you've got to watch that one day!) - and my wish to do Kennedy justice (despite that fact that I hatehatehate! her), and, well, voilà. *g*

Blah. I still love DEMDSI far, far too much. :::pets story:::
