When Buffy breaks up with Riley by the start of Chapter 2, you know it's going to be a good story, and I wasn't disappointed. I really liked how you got team Angel in the story - there's a very disappointing lack of the Angel Investigations team in Fuffy stories.
faith loves her
awww faith going to keep buffy warm
sleeping together, how cute
i like how buffy tries so hard to be indifferent yet can't help but care about faith
awwwwwww
“I want you to take her to every place where she chose wrong, so to speak. I’d like to try for one destination per day so she can confront her past. I feel you are the best person to be with her when she does.”
“Why?” Buffy asked, even more confused now.
“Because there’s only one thing I know about Faith that hasn’t changed from the first day she arrived in Sunnydale until now. She wants to be your friend.”
love that buffy got in bed with faith to comfort her; so sweet
Lovely start
Good story. Good writing. Good plot. Good everything. Bravo. :)
Author's Response:Thank you! Very happy you enjoyed it!
Thank you for all the reviews you've been sending, too. Seeing them puts a smile on my face. :)
Guessed it was Wolfram and Hart. I couldn't really think of anyone else that Faith seriously offended who had that sort of mystical resources in their back pockets to use. Hope they don't get the upper hand. :)
Author's Response:You know, I'd never read anything where Wolfram and Hart were out to get Faith. She did betray them and they don't seem like the type to let that go. Happy you're liking it. :)
Finally, Buffy develops and acknowledges the feelings. :)
Author's Response:She couldn't deny it forever, right? I mean, she could but where's the fun in that? ;)
And the healing continues. :) Glad to see some realy progress on both of their parts. Doesn't help anyone if Faith is allowed to just curl in on herself and break down. Also doesn't help if Buffy isn't willing to help both of them get past their pain, but they both made huge steps in this chapter and that is definitely something. Good writing. Keep it up. :)
Author's Response:I figured they both needed to heal. Sure, Faith did a lot of damage but Buffy made mistakes, too. Thanks for the feedback! :)
It's wonderful that Joyce is taking care of Faith now. She always needed a mother figure I think and it was tragic that she lost that with Joyce because of what she did, but second chances, right? Good writing. I think there were some errors in the beginning, but nothing that crippled the reading experience. Just be cautious of those things. :D
Author's Response:No matter how many times I check those pesky errors always creep in. :) Happy they weren't too terrible. Yes, Joyce will be the mother figure Faith needs here. Seemed like she would do so much better with one.
Like that Buffy finally feels certain about Faith's vulnerability and that she is as much a victim of her actions (as weird as it sounds) as the people she hurt. Wonder how they will defeat Adam without Buffy's little rush into the Initiave to save her boy scout boy-toy? ;) Good writing.
Author's Response:Buffy's going to be a little conflicted throughout about Faith and everything else. Riley's pretty much a non-factor here so I wouldn't worry about him. :)
Interesting. Liked the fact that you didn't make Faith not evil, but took a different route with her rehabilitation. That is a novel way to rewrite season 4 that I havent seen done by anyone else so bravo on that score. Writing was also very good as well. Good work. Keep it up. :)
Author's Response:Thanks! I couldn't remember if I ever read anything where Buffy was involved in Faith's rehabiliation so I thought I'd try. :)
