I have this Spander fic for spring_with_xan and it needs a beta reader. I've been looking at this damn thing for over two weeks and Oh God it just seems to suck for me.

The fic is 6551 words long. BIG HUGE HONKIN' sex scene that I totally suck at writing, so I need someone to look that over and tell me what sucks about it so I can fix it.

Also: continuity, grammar, characterization, all that stuff needs to be looked at. I think I chickified Spike, and because I've been looking at the thing for so long, I can't find where I went wrong.

Needs to be back to me by Monday, as that's my posting day at the comm. Please help me??

Feedback: yes, yes, yes, I thrive on it. I'm becoming a shameless feedback slut.
Concrit: Oh hell, any way you want.
Disclaimer: The characters belong to Joss and a bunch of lawyers. I only wish they belonged to me cause I'd make em do naughty things together forever. I'm just playing with them. No disrespect intended. No reflection on real persons or places intended. I'm not making any profit from this. This is strictly for entertainment.
Warnings/Squicks: Kidnapping, References to the killing of Children. Torture, Vigilantism, M/M, Anal, Language, I think I've mentioned it all. Make sure you read the notes below.
Summary: Xander goes to LA on a fact finding trip and finds Angelus instead. Scariness happens.
Previous chapters: In my memories, and my journal is now caught up with all the chapters posted. I can't seem to get the link insert thing to work right. So just click on my user name and go to my memories. All the chapters are there together. The link is in the top upper left corner of my journal.
Notes: Fair warning: This chapter was really hard for me to write and still keep enough detail without going overboard with it. I think I succeeded in that aim, even as wordy as I am, I may have left out too much detail in the shack scenario. Let me know what you think and I'll go back and add some things back in that I snipped out. I really squicked over the scene where Xander and Spike go back to the shack and what they found. I even changed the condition of the child they found. It was originally much squickier. I took a lot of things out, maybe too much. I can handle just about anything with adults, but not with kids. When I went back and read the chapter from the beginning to check everything over, I just couldn't post it that way. Just imagine all the things about serial killers you know and fill it in with your imagination. The scenario at the killer's house is squicky too. But then I think he deserves what he got. And a lot of the details were skimmed over there as well. This doesn't strictly follow canon. Canon is in there but I've woven events differently for Buffy 7 and Angel 5. Sooo if you don't like that sort of thing you might want to skip this. This is my first story so feedback is very welcome.

Summary: Hindsight isn't always twenty-twenty.

Disclaimer: None of the characters are mine. Everything belongs to other people wealthier than me. I earn nothing from this endeavor.
Warnings: References to slash, femmeslash. Descriptions of m/m sex. Spoilers for all seasons of both BtVS and AtS. There is a rape/torture scene later on, but the details are not graphic and that chapter will have extra warnings for those that want to skip it. Excessive use of various f-words. Oh, yeah, scary monsters and general violence over all.

Warnings specific to chapter SIX: There is blasphemous swearing in this chapter. Thought I'd mention it just in case it's a deal breaker. :)

Updates should slow down to about one chapter a day, until roughly chapter sixteen, so feel free to check my memories regularly.  

A big Thank you to all the fantastic feedback I've been getting!
