So happy to see something new from you! Very interesting start, too!
I wonder how this mystery with Faith will develop, the strange feelings and if that old trunk will come into play. Love how Buffy is all confused about her feelings for Faith.
Really enjoyed how you set up this one, having everyone starting over and getting along. I like how they include Faith. Looking forward to your new chapter! :)

Hey hey! I'm happy too! It seems my muse is not broken after all. She just has an unpredictable hibernation cycle. :p
it's a different kind of story for me, so hopefully I do it well and you enjoy it!

Yes, it is moving right along. :)
I like how it seems like both Buffy and Faith have feelings that they maybe want to explore but are hesistant to act on them. It is nice that they're friends though and have moved on from the past. Love the scene with the plants!
Looking forward to what happens next! Especially with this spirit of ghost that's with Faith. :)
Author's Response:
Thanks Hayley! Usually I don't actually like writing ensemble scenes that much, and am more into pure B/F goodness, but the plant scenes were fun! Next chapter coming post haste! Wow, it's Wednesday already. Time flies when you only have four chapters of this fic completed. Lol.

Something is definitely wrong with Faith. I'm not sure if it's a body possession or something else but at least Buffy can tell she's acting strangely. I wonder if the others will start to think that way, too. Loved the scene with Faith telling Buffy she's not interested. Buffy's response is excellent, as is her response to Willow the next morning.
Can't wait for the next part! :)
Author's Response:
Buffy's like this totally makes me angry but I can't articulate why and NO WILLOW it is definitely not because I have feelings where would you get such a crazy idea!? Lol. The others may eventually notice stuff. :p I'm still writing it so I guess we will both find out later! :p

I love how Buffy played detective in this chapter and wouldn't let it go after the spell. She's not giving up on Faith and that's fun to read. She definitely knew how to test Faith at the end with bringing up her past as a test. Way to think it through, Buffy!
Great chapter! :)

I'm sorry that I've fallen off the face of the earth and never responded to my reviews!! D: Buffy is a smart cookie and she's stubborn as all get out. She was not going to let it go, haha. :D Thanks!

I loved reading this background on what exactly happened to Faith once her body was taken over. It was interesting to read just how much she tried to contact Buffy and I liked that you waited until Buffy could see her in order to reveal it.
Looking forward to reading what's coming next! :)
Author's Response:
Thank you! I hadn't initially planned to write it like that but it just felt right in the moment. :) I've finally gotten around to posting chapter 7 haha. Hope you enjoy!
