Wow, my favourite chapter so far! :)

It's good to know where we are in the S4 timeline, Spike getting his butt kicked by two slayers (again) was just icing on the cake.

Loved what Faith did to Parker- a repeat of the treatment she gave Scott- simple, yet I found it more effective than the various things that happened to him on the actual show (Willow calling him on his bs, Cave Bufffy and Riley hitting him)

Faith knows where to hurt a slease like him. :)

Pleased that we got more Buffy/Faith interacting, Faith coming over just like, without even thinking about it, that was sweet and heartwarming.

Faith talking with Joyce was great to read. Plus the Buffy/Faith mating dance...hot! not to mention Faith gently teasing Willow- it was all great.

And then as a bonus we get Faith guest-starring on Angel instead of Oz- and getting to beat on Spike again. :)

I have to say I thought that maybe at this point you were gonna pull the trigger and dust his ass (he is a REALLY devisive character) but I had to settle for Faith shooting him in the face a whole bunch. *sigh* I'll take what I can get. ;)

But that ending, with Faith at the airport and then the lady's POV to the Joyce/Faith meeting...man, I damn near choked up. 'Cause that's how Faith is, deep down- this really raw, sweet, genuine, damaged woman that you know how to write.

Kudos.

Whenever you decide to write more I will eagerly read. :)

 

Author's Response:

I'm so, so glad you enjoyed my chapter ending. Here's hoping that the newest addition will also be to your liking.

I think Spike is a horrible character, but only because he was overused. As a recurring villain, he was perfect. Don't worry, though, he's got more abuse heading his way.

Parker was fun to write - and I agree, revenge is always best served with a side of embarassment.

Mating dance, huh? Well yes, I suppose it is...

Joyce is fun to write - and I've just finished writing a whole lot of her for the next chapter!

And Willow? Keep your eye on Willow...
