Thank you, glad you liked it.  :) I don't think it was sad at all, but I get that it didn't end on kissing or a definitive note. It ended with them agreeing to try though so I thought it was upbeat. Of course, very few readers agreed with me. :p It's interesting that you felt the fics were implying there was a lot of blame on canon Buffy. That's not my perception at all. In fact I'm kind of a rabid Buffy lover and I put very little blame on Buffy for anything related to Faith. I think Buffy tried to help, but ultimately she was a 17 year old girl in a really difficult situation. As was Faith. I think there's blame to be put on Giles, Wesley, and the Council, as adults who should have been looking after her. I also think that nothing anyone else did or didn't do to help her in any way mitigates the fact that she chose to kill a person on order from the Mayor. Even after all that, Buffy still seemed open to wanting to help her when she woke up in Season 4. The body switch was the thing that made Buffy so hateful toward Faith. I think of course Faith deserves as much of a chance at redemption as anyone else who also took human lives, but Faith went bad in season 3. That was well before the other Scoobs had done anything. To put a cap on my rambling, that wasn't what I intended to be read into the fics. Buffy in Flowers has remorse for how things went with Faith, but the final piece to their story is Buffy forgiving canon Faith, not apologizing. Alt Faith doesn't put any blame on canon Buffy when she finds out the details either. The only one who does in either story is Alt Buffy, but canon Faith puts the kibosh on that and owns up to her own actions. I guess that's the interesting thing about writing--there ends up being variability in how people take it, even when I didn't intend for there to be. Similar to the show--we both see something completely different. :)

As for one-shots, I can promise they won't switch back. There are a couple small pieces planned that will touch on both fics, but I won't spoil you. :) and I won't make promises I may not keep lol. Thank you got checking it out and for reviewing! :D

Wait no longer... well, it's a 'one chaperter at a time' kinda deal ;)

Let's dance that dance for a spell. I'm sure they know all the steps!!

I wasn't sure if I could write humor that well. Y'know when you personally find things funny, but to try and convey that joke to other people... i'm never quite sure if it lands. Thank you for letting me know you found the funny in my funny.

The 'mooorrreeee' you wanted... is here.

That's awesome to hear, thank you so much. I'm such a mahuuuuusive fan of the show, characters and actors I really try my best to do it all justice. Hopefully you'll also like the next chapter too.

You're sweet! I aim to please. 

Thanks! 

Thank you!!! Awww, that's the nicest thing anybody's said to me all week.
