Why this is a must read:

Author's Summary -- A not-so-brief history of William the Bloody, including a hundred and twenty years, two girlfriends, three doomed obsessions, four continents, nine haircolors, four parties, three torture scenes, two blowjobs, twelve consecutive shots of whiskey, forty-three thousand eight hundred packs of cigarettes, and a car theft. Spoilers for BtVS "School Hard" through "The Gift."

There isn't much I can say about this fic because really, my words aren't enough. Jess delves into Spike's character and shows you what's there. This is Spike's brutality and passion. This is Spike's heart. This is Spike's grief and perseverance. This is Spike.

Many Loves

Oh My!

THAT was one of the best Spike stories I've read. The time that she covered, the emotions and path that she showed. Wow, just wow. I highly rec people to read this. William to Spike, from human to the man he's become.

THAT was one of the best Spike stories I've read.

It really is. To me, this characterization of Spike is Spike. It seems so much more real than any other fanon version. Glad you liked it. :)

I'm loving this story, but I get a 404 error trying to move from part ten to part eleven.

Would it be archived anywhere else? I'm not in the fandom so I'm unsure where to look.

I just saw this so if it's already working for you sorry for spamming:
It's working for me right now at (http://ficbitch.com/fistsandfangs/manyloves11.html)
but if that doesn't work then try here (http://eterniata.com/manyloves1.html) though that's the start of the story as it's divided up a bit differently at that archive.

Thanks for the response, and for the new links. Off to read the rest!

Oh, thank you Evette! She asked, and then the site was completely down for me and I couldn't get it to work at all, and so I thought I'd come back and then I forgot! *smoooooooch* You rock, babe.
