Lovely very in-character short fic
I liked it a lot
thank you for writing
short and sweet.
I really loved this! Very descriptive and you made it so easy to picture the bleakness, depression, sameness, and unhappiness that had become Faith's life on the run.
A few random thoughts:
Snake! HAHAHA!!! "I'm the Slayer, Plissken." That made me laugh out loud. Being more of a fan of the video game, I pictured him in that outfit looking for a box to hide in ;) And I don't even want to know what your Snake was drinking.
"Come out, come whatever you are."
"That's original."
I liked Buffy's entrance, very cool, and I loved this writing:
"...Faith spun around, automatic grin fading a litttle and then coming back strong. Strong as a shield."
Wow, that's really nice. It told me right away it was Buffy and I loved how simply you explained how Faith always keeps her emotional defenses up...except when Buffy makes them waver. It really gave me insight into Faith's character and the Fuffy relationship.
Their whole conversation/interaction is great: "Little Miss Behavin'. Fuckin' things up left and right."
The hair dryer story was funny as hell and so very Buffy. HAHAHA!!!
That first kiss was so sexy, but then Buffy's follow-up kiss was really sexy and real and loving.
"I wanted this." Gee, who wouldn't melt when hearing that?
My favorite lines were when you described the bus sex:
"Just couldn't hold out, just couldn't sit there anymore in their separate little worlds. Cold little worlds. Lonely and dim and grey worlds that had opened up and bloomed like desert flowers after."
If there was a 'bowing" emoticon, I'd be using a million :) :) :)
Faith wanted to get caught and Buffy wanted to catch her and stick around. Aww...It's so perfectly romantic.*swoon*
And hey -- Snake was right. There was something bigger than Faith on her trail. Fuffy love's like that.
Great one-shot!
