As an added bonus for your struggles in getting this one posted, I thought I'd better leave you a review tonight. *coughsuckingupcough* Ahem, what was that? Must be getting sick again. Anyway! I haven't read this one before, and it was adorable. I loved Buffy's utter grossness. I'm gonna assume there's self insertion here and you are a snotty, gross cryer. :D Is it true? Inquiring minds want to know.

I loved this line:

"Maybe this was the real reason Slayers didn’t live long.  They died of broken hearts."

And it sounds sadly accurate for slayers of yesteryear. Also loved the inside joke on Buffy's driving abilities. Every time someone mentions it, I just think of Principal Snyder, "Summers! You drive like a spaz!" Haha!



Author's Response:

Wow, who knew you could be such a suck up, lady? *laughs*  not that i mind, of course.  I love this fic just for the snotty, gross crying.  And yes, I may be a gross, snotty crier, too.  Luckily I'm an emotionless robot and those moments are rare though.

I also am a fan of any and all references to Buffy's driving (in)abilities. I'm pretty sure I find a way to squeeze it in every story :)

I'll plan on adding another story over my lunch break, slowly but surely until all my stuff is up here.  Gotta post those banners, too.

I don't think I read this one before. :) Now I am half awed by cuteness, and have ready to come to your house and chain you to the writing notebook you were mocking us with earlier. It's not supposed to be empty! You sit down and get right to work on your next fluffy short piece. I would like more Sunday afternoon domestication. :D I do hate Hank, as an added bonus in this story. I sort of hate how they dropped him on the show. The season 1 nightmares episode was so poignant for Buffy's fear of him rejecting her, and then they made him an absentee dad when he'd never been before. :( Just sad. Stupid Joss and his stupid father abandonment storylines and his stupid lack of having Buffy dancing in her underwear. Good thing we have you here to make it better. :D



Author's Response:

Lol!  I wasn't mocking you with my writing notebook, I swear.  I was, however, mocking you with my monkey pants.  :D  I'll see what other kinds of domestication I can settle them into next.  Maybe Buffy can knit Faith a scarf with a secret compartment for her stake.  Nawwww, that's love.  :p  Thanks for reading!

Uh, I'm interested, yes please. Why have you never told me there's more?? Damn it, E! I think you should post it. You can always put a note in that says its going to be left incomplete, so people know. 

I love this fic just as much reading it through a second time. I love B Bot's perkiness, and Faith's almost self loathing affection for her. It would be so interesting to see how this world changes with Buffy back. How many chaps do you have? 



Author's Response:

I think I've spoken about the sequel before, but I never really intended to post it because I doubt I'll finish it.  And I didn't wanna be a dick by posting another incomplete story!  lol  I think I have almost three finished chapters of the story.  Maybe inspiration will strike in the future.  :)  Thanks for reading, dearest Alice!

Okay, attention! Attention! The moment you've been waiting for... I'm here to read the fic! *waits for applause* 

Initially I thought they were already dating, but then at the end of the chapter I realized I was wrong, haha. I'm more excited this way though, because I love getting together fics. I'm with Buffy on how annoying those people were. Do you reveal later how the slayers saved the guy (and from what)? Just curious what happened to him. 

Buffy is so mean--talking about Giles's cheapness when she knows darn well he shelled out for the room next door! I guess she can't very well tell Faith that or she'll want to move in there. :p 

I'm curious what's going to happen next. It seems like a set up for pwp, but I know Topak is a sucker for romance, and she talked this fic up big time. :)

 



Author's Response:

Oh my, I believe I'm experiencing the vapors. *applause rings out loudly throughout the land...or at my kitchen table*

Yes, this is definitely a "getting together" fic and you weren't wrong. They're together at the end of the story, you were just jumpng the gun a little bit. I hear new archive owners are like that :)

I do reveal what happened to Kevin Dawson and how he was saved, but that takes place in "One Piece Fic". I'll give you the inside scoop if you aren't going to read that story, although I feel certain Faith will not appreciate that sort of behavior.

Buffy is a woman on a mission, if Giles has to be thrown under the bus, so be it. She means business.

This fic is totally a PWP: Plot Without Porn is my specialty...Besides, it has the esteemed "Topak Seal of Approval". Enough said.

Thanks for the feedback!

Watching her while she sleeps eh? Creepy Buffy. I love the explanation that the Hellmouth made the Scoobies act like complete asses, because I hated that scene in season 7. Grrr. Joss Whedon must have been affected by the freaking Hellmouth, to allow that to reach my TV. 

I like the rundown of Buffy's activities. I do admire your willingness to embrace the stories we were left with, regarding Spike and Andrew. I'd probably have to re-write history and rid myself of them because I hate both. :p 

Loved Buffy trying to prove to herself that nothing's going on with Faith. Oh yeah, Buffy, how did that work out for you? I have to wonder how this love confession to Giles played out. I imagine there was glasses polishing and wishing the Hellmouth would open and swallow them all whole. 

So I'm driving through Sacramento right now. Well, I'm in the passenger seat. I'm going to get caught up on my reading this trip. It's like you're on the road trip. Can you smell that wonderful California air, Bobbi Bee? Well, it's actually kind of gross because there are a lot of cows, but still. :)



Author's Response:

You and me both! That moment in Season Seven was totally unfathomable and made me hate everyone, especially Joss Whedon. I had to figure out some way to let me love the characters again, but I never came back around when it comes to Joss.

So I guess your hatred means you won't be reading my new Spirew story? Damn, the love scene in chapter 69 is so sweet and so very tender.

Yes, Buffy did her best to talk herself out of it, but true love, especially Fuffy true love, cannot be denied. Certainly not in this story anyway :)

Read on and you'll no longer wonder about the polishing of glasses. Now shh, I'm breathing in deep and enjoying the California bovine laced air.

Thanks for the feedback :)

"She didn’t look scared, mostly she just looked stupid. Of course that made sense because she is way more stupid than anything else." Preach it, grrrrrrl. I have drunk the Kennedy haterade, and it is gooood. I loved Buffy choking her! I guess Kennedy doesn't like Faith too much either? Or she's just saying whatever possible to piss Buffy off? 

Classic Buffy babbling. Poor Willow was really trying to follow her line of thought, but there was no following our girl on this one. I lol'd at the image of Buffy wrapping her up in the blanket. Good chapter!! :) excited for the next. Maybe I can blow off our plans for tonight and finish the story? 

 



Author's Response:

Kennedy haters untie!

In this fic Kennedy is an equal opportunity agitator: she doesn't like Faith and she enjoys pissing Buffy off. And sometimes her crappy behavior gets her choked, among other things. Did I already say: "Kennedy haters untie!" because I meant to ;)

I'm glad you liked the chapter and could picture Babbling B saving Willow's life, but please don't make your girl hate me. No blowing off vacation plans, I don't want Katy making a sudden detour to Florida.

Thanks for the feedback!

Ahaha. Buffy, slayer senses could come in handy here. To, you know, determine if someone is in the room. I am so with Faith on the throwing and threatening to stab thing. Wouldn't we all like to do that to dudes who don't know when to Shut the fuck up and go the fuck away?

The problem with Buffy is that she thinks she's making the first move by sitting close on the couch and similar crap, but really she expects Faith to pick up on that and make the first move! And why would Faith do that, given their history together? Buffy's expecting too much. After all the ups and downs between them, it's kinder to be clear and honest. She should have let Willow help her more, because this plan was crap. :p



Author's Response:

Buffy's a woman on a mission and she gotta play it the way she sees it. Or doesn't see it. Or sense it. Or something it.

I know I'd certainly like to throw Justin, there's no doubt about that ;)

I say just put your faith in Buffy(pun intended). She is The Slayer and The Buffy after all.

Thanks for the feedback :) :) :)

I could have done without the Spike love. :p But I was on board for the Angel love and the Parker cattiness. Especially the Angel love, because I love Angel, and if there is one thing that stayed consistent even through the show, even the crappy last season, it's that Buffy does too. 

I loved the talk with Giles. He's surprised, but only that Buffy's actually facing her feelings. Haha! I snorted at his distaste for Kennedy. I don't understand it either, G man. How I wish the hellmouth had influenced Willow to begin dating Kennedy. Hey, maybe it did. Can you go back and fix that, Bobbi? 

Poor Willow, trying to talk some sense into Buffy. "Uh, you know, talking is an option, Buff?" Buffy's not trying to hear that. Giles is an old romantic, isn't he? Shelling out the dough so B can seduce F, lol. :) I'm excited to get to the next chapter and see the actual (sure to be hilariously executed) seduction attempts. :D



Author's Response:

Well, two out of three ain't bad. I'm glad you love Angel, I do too, although not as much as one of my sisters. She claims him as hers and I certainly don't want to cross her. She's a hair puller.

HAHAHA!!! If I'd have thought of it, Willow would have dumped Kennedy like a hot and annoying potato. A hugely lost opportunity :(

Speaking of love, although of a strictly platonic nature, Giles does love him some Buffy. I guess from my viewpoint, making her happy is just about the only thing that can easily overpower his frugality.

Thanks for the feedback :) :) :)

As usual, this chapter was laugh out loud funny. Your Buffy voice is great, and always hilarious. I liked Faith's jitteriness (is that a word?). Poor thing. Buffy's idea of seduction is not at all subtle. I don't know how Faith's holding out against her. 

As much fun as the light hearted stuff is, my favorite moment was probably when Faith told Buffy it meant a lot to her that they're friends now. It was really sweet. :')

I lol'd at Buffy listening for heroic music. That's so random and goofy. I love little touches like that, that really make her come to life. 

Loved Faith's Olympic swimming. Hope it helps, girl. I'm sure it's not getting any easier for you in the next chapter. :D



Author's Response:

"Laugh out loud funny"! WHEEEE!!! :)

"Jitteriness" ought to be a word if it isn't! But Faith is tough as nails, hard as steel,,,if the nails and steel were having a nervous breakdown and constantly turned on.

I love that you liked when Faith told Buffy it meant a lot that they were friends, and also when Buffy was listening out for heroic music. I think she'd be really excited to know that she really does have a cool theme song.

Faith, the Lap Slayer! I guess a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do, but that applies to Buffy too. Battle of the Slayers!

Thanks for the feedback :) :) :)

Okay this:

"She went off to the shower whistling, and I began getting dressed. Well right after I had sex with that rose. Okay no, I didn’t have sex with the rose, but I did smell it and kind of rub it against my lips. God, the sexy look of pleasure on her face when…" 

Giggle snort. Oh, Buffy. So weird. :p

I loved that wicked surf wrestling match turned neck kiss. It was wicked awesome. Also walking behind her on the way home because her shorts were sticking to her butt. :) hahaha. 

At the risk of earning your scorn, I will confess... I love the Ewoks! And I loved Buffy loving them and crying over it. In the vein of movies everyone has seen, Katy has never seen Lord of the Rings. I think they're awesome and all, but I haven't found like 12 hours to sit around watching them with her yet. :p So I commend Faith for doing it, although Star Wars is easier watching than LotR. And I concur with her assessment of the rest of the movies. I blame Hayden Christiansen. Why not just get a piece of actual wood to play Anakin? It would have been more life like, damn it! 

Ahem. Okay. Anyway, great chapter. I loved their bonding. It was adorable. :)

 



Author's Response:

HAHAHA!!! But...but Buffy's not weird, she's just unique and kicky and so in love, she's a weirdo.

Ahh...wrestling in the surf, butt clinging shorts...Ewok loving...Not that kind!

Have no fear, I won't scorn you. It's always the really girly ones (men included) who love the Ewoks. You guys just can't help it. Something about their plucky fuzziness gets you where it counts. Also you're giving me nice feedback, so you could even love Jar Jar Binks and I'd...Uh...Okay, no. Then I would have to rain down scorn upon you in a monsoon, but I just know we're safe and you would never tell me such a thing is true.

Yes, Hayden was completely lifeless and boring, I don't get it. I liked Natalie well enough, but he sucked the life out of every scene, even some he wasn't in. The one thing I did enjoy very, very much? I absolutely LOVED the way Liam Neeson wielded his light saber. Yes, that sounds a bit dirty, but oh my...Is it hot in here? He was so sexy and manly...Where am I?

Thank you for the feedback. I'm really happy you're laughing along :) :) :)

"There was also her new and insane training regimen. I guess she was getting ready for the decathlon or the biathlon or some kind of “athlon” thing because she was swimming laps constantly, doing push-ups and sit-ups every time I turned around, and she even went out running twice. It didn’t seem to be helping her all that much, but she kept at it."

Lolllll. Poor Faith. I love the image of Faith just training away, trying to work out the jitters, and Buffy just making everything worse and worse.

I was a little surprised Faith wasn't angry about being manipulated. Buffy's basically saying, I think you have the emotional maturity of a 10 year old and can't handle adult relationships. I sort of expected Faith to be pissed and be like, why are you insane and you didn't give me a chance to talk? But I think she was blinded by the sex. :p

Only one more chapter? I'll give you 24 hours to remedy this. Think you can churn a few more out and paste 'em in by then? Okay, anddddddd, go!



Author's Response:

Faith was doing her best, but I guess you could just say Buffy's was better. Or worse. My, this is confusing.

HA! I don't think that's what Buffy was saying about Faith's "emotional maturity" at all, and I saw Faith's lack of anger as a sign she'd really grown over the years. At least that's what I was shooting for when I wrote it. Or maybe the phenomenal sex solved everything after all.

Just a sec...Don't rush me! I'm trying to get the ribbon in the typewriter...

Thanks for the feedback :) :) :)

Okay so I didn't give you 24 hours. I assume you're furiously writing away though. :) The convo with Giles was my favorite part. Especially this: 

“‘Cause we’d rather fuck each other, okay?! How goddamn old are you anyways?”

“Christ, can hear you cleaning your glasses all the way over here. Sorry.”

“So you’re not mad?”

 Mouthing off and then, so you're not mad? :D hahaha. Poor Giles. I'd like a one shot from his POV where he just stares at the credit card balance increasing, and drinks a lot of tea. Possibly laced with alcohol. 

All in all, great fluffy fic from a comedy genius. :p No liquids came out my nose, but there's always One Piece Fic... :)




Author's Response:

Now I just need to put the corrector thing in and make sure it's not reversed and...What? Alice!

I'm glad you liked the Giles/Faith conversation and yeah, that'd be one hell of a one-shot!

"Yes, Mr. Giles here. Please tell me this card has a limit of some sort...Bollocks!" ...Begins pouring tea into whiskey bottle. ;)

Gee, I've never had to pin all my hopes on nose fluid before. I feel...dirty somehow.

Thanks for the feedback! I'm really happy you liked the fic :) :) :)

I was a bit skeptical about the second person POV, but you rocked it! You converted me, officially.

I loved this. Giles knew just when to make his exit, huh? :p It felt so realistic, like actual drunk people. Loved the games, especially spin the bottle, and of course the fuffy. Swoooooon.



Author's Response:

I'm still a lot skeptical about second-person POV, most of the time, but for whatever reason it was the only way I could write this one and make it sound right. One of my most favorite (non-BtVS) stories is in second-person POV and I've realized that when it's done right it really, really works. 

It's funny because I actually wrote this while dating someone who was totally sober and most of our friends were, too, and I was really missing the drunken shenanigans of college. ANd I thought, what would the Scoobs actually do after "Chosen"? Like, RIGHT after? And all of my wishing for my own drunken shenanigans gave me the idea that they'd party, at least for one night. Glad you enjoyed it!

I don't even know how many times I lol'd reading this. Like Xander, I am traumatized by the image of Giles dressed like Tim Curry. Mine eyes, Squee! Mine eyes!  I could see Tony Head playing that part though. :p Although, if Giles wasn't involved in the original plan... Who initiated that dream? I'm gonna guess Andrew. 

I actually hate Kennedy, but you made her bearable here. Yes, go beat up Buffy's exes. That makes you tolerable. Good work. Loved Willow's spell being screwed up, and the idea of a magic proof panic room. That's actually probably a good idea in general. 

The most hilarious thing for me was the fanfic meta, especially Xander's and Kennedy's reactions to it. Hilarious. So good I read it aloud to my gf and she loved it too. :D

My only criticism is that a few places don't match American speak. We don't get on, we get along. That's probably the most glaring example. Otherwise, a wonderful funny little fic. :) You need to post morrrrre. 



Author's Response:

Hello! I've been away doing, you know, stuff, and a friend moved in upstairs, and work is chaos with people going sick, and, and...

Anyway. Yeah, I'm afraid my Americanspeak isn't too good yet, but I am trying, so thanks for pointing out that! Glad you found it pretty funny. I wanted to write a comedy for a while, because there are so many good rofl fics out there. :P

Tony Head did play that part, by the way. On a Rocky Horror Show annual singalong show, he (and Amber Benson!) sang pieces, and both dressed up/down for the occasion. There are some bad quality clips on youtube that show these if you want proof. BUT YOU MIGHT WANT TO BURN OUT YOUR EYES.

Andrew might have initiated the dream...

Most people tend to hate Kennedy, or make her out to be a total bitch, but I kind of like writing her when making her obviously butch/defensive, but she is kind of like a mini Faith - which makes their characters clash, I guess. :(

Loved writing the derp fan fic fourth wall stuff, I think a lot of us can relate to it somewhat... but was sort of worried people had a chance of taking offence to it. Seems so far you guys like it! :D Am flattered as well you found it funny enough to read out loud to your gf!

Nothing rings my bell like an alternate dimension fic. :D Electra talked this one up, so I had to check it out. I hate Carly already. :p I'm really interested to see how Willow and Xander react to Buffy being here. It makes sense for Dawn not to be here. Would she really need to be in all dimensions, if you think about it, since she's the key? It works for her to only have been in one. I'm curious whether you ended up working the resurrection in Season 6 in with the fic.

I don't love Faith overly much, but I think that's because she seems so like the Faith who showed up in Season 3. I hope there's a less cocky Faith lurking under the surface and she's just trying to impress Buffy. I guess I'll find out! :)

I was expecting a little more angst from Willow and Xander. I know it's been a few years, but I imagined they would be devastated by Buffy's death. I thought there'd be more tears and awe. I liked the reference to Giles getting drunk and mopey about Buffy's death.

I'm excited to see Jenny, whenever she appears.

So Faith thinks she's hot, and now we've got some 'B' action going on. The stars are aligning, haha! :)

Ah, but, Buffy, the teen years are when everything horribly embarrassing happens! A few years in SD is plenty of time to rack up serious embarrassment. :)

So this: 

"Not that I’m constantly checking out her body all the time or anything."

Made me snort. Suuuuuure, she's not. Good Willow and Faith bonding, even if it's at Buffy's expense. :p 

I started reading this one over since I was delinquent in my feedback. Should get caught up with the recent update. :)



Author's Response:

Thanks!  I loved writing Buffy's denial checking out Faith and being awkward with the situation.  It's so much fun!  I always feel that there's room for Willow and Faith to bond and it made my intent for little angst in this one possible.

 

Thanks again for the review! :)

Good progression with Buffy getting actual answers from Faith about her life. Looking forward to them deepening their friendship and sharing more. :) 



Author's Response:

I always thought Faith would never just open up to people about her past but I figured Buffy would at least get some info.  And Faith can definitely help with the H&H. :D

Poor, sweet, clueless Buffy. :p It's nice to see Faith willing to make the first move. It really shows how close they've become and how much she trusts Buffy. I hope Buffy doesn't let her down, but I suspect there will be wigging coming our way next chapter. Now I am off to find out!!



Author's Response:

Ha, ha, I kind of love writing Buffy a little clueless about any signals Faith throws her way initially.  I thought it made more sense for Faith to step up with the moves, too.  :)

Lol omg Willow. That is against the friend code! What are you doing? Poor Faith, hahaha. 

Excited to be proven wrong and to see Buffy treating Faith well and not doing her spazzing Buffy in denial thing. I like things progressing like normal teenage girls. Not that I don't like the more dramatic enemies to lovers stuff, it's just nice to have something a little fluffier. :) 



Author's Response:

I'm all about the fluffiness with this one and didn't want Buffy to spaz.  She needs to accept some Faith-love every once and a while.  And as for Willow, well, it needed to be said.  lol

Cute, fluffy adorableness. I loved their first date. :) I love Faith for moving at a glacial speed just to make Buffy comfortable. It reminds me of watching the show, because this is the kind of progression we'd see from the early years on Buffy. It's moving just right, and I'm loving it. 



Author's Response:

With what I was trying to do, it wouldn't make sense to go right from first date to nakedness.  This way Faith can show off her romantic side.  :)

Thanks for the feedback!

Hmm, I suspect Joyce may have a clue. Although, she didn't about the slaying, so maybe she's not that quick on the draw after all. :p Faith continues to be great here. I liked Buffy wanting to make new steps, because Faith needs those reassurances. Darn it, my lunch break is over and I have to stop reading for now. :(



Author's Response:

Joyce may or may not know. :)  I think Buffy wants to take steps forward and Faith helps with her nerves about all of it.  Kind of a perfect fit.  :)

I hope Buffy doesn't either! I guess I don't have much faith in her because I am a little nervous.

The one thing that bothers me... you people are barely dating, don't you want to brush your morning breath away before you kiss?! D: Slay the bad breath, Buff.



Author's Response:

LOL, I guess Buffy doesn't care about morning as much as the rest of us. :)

I think Buffy's a little nervous but she'll be fine. ;)

Squeeeee to the I think I'm falling in love with you thing. I love your Faith. She's so much more grounded than I would have expected, but in a way that feels authentic too. I love the progression of their relationship. :)



Author's Response:

I thought I could make Faith a little more grounded and a little less unstable here since she never had a big falling out with Buffy and the rest of them.  I hope it makes the slow progression of their relationship a little more believable, too.  :)

Unless Joyce finds you in a compromising position in the morning and chases you out with a broom stick! Okay, that probably won't happen. It would be hilarious though.



Author's Response:

You know, I really thought about having something like that happen but I didn't know how to make it more hilarious than angsty and horrifying.  :)
