Sorry to take up so much of your LJ with this comment. Well that's just daft, because everybody likes getting comments, you can tell me how wonderful I am as much as you like! I've had a lot of comments, in reviews on BSV and private messages from BSV, from people who've had an experience of rape... well I don't know what to say really. The whole vampire/soulless thing stops Seeing Red being directly comparable, I think, to real life experience, and I really have no idea how I'd react so Buffy in the story is based as much as I can on how she reacts on screen. I didn't really mean to portray her as full of hate, just... in denial. Wanting the quiet, normal life and the easiest way to that is wanting to pretend Spike never existed. Thanks so much for you reviews. Rosy
