    Summary

    She wants them.

    She wants Mira and Zoey so badly, in whatever way, shape, or form that comes in.

    For once in her life, Rumi wants to be selfish.

    Or: HUNTR/X works towards sealing the Honmoon and falls in love along the way. Pre-reveal Rumi, hiding both her patterns and her wants, loves her girls in whatever way she can until she's free (whether that means shielding Mira and Zoey in fights or pretending to be something she's not). She just has to hold out until the Honmoon’s golden. Straightforward enough, right?

    Summary

    “Aw, so you do care. You’d have been all choked up if I’d died in the slammer wouldn’t ya?”

    Buffy pauses in her steps. “Were you?” she asks, her eyes intense as they catch Faith’s. The 'when I died' goes unspoken.

    Faith swallows bitterly. “No one told me.”

    Summary

    “So, the breakup must have been pretty bad then, I’m guessing,” Buffy says, in that tone that she uses when she wants to sound casual about something she’s been obsessing over.

    Faith raises her eyebrows, glancing over at Buffy. “As far as I know, you’re still together. As much as you ever were, anyway — I never really got all the details.”

    Of all the things that have changed, this has stayed exactly as Faith remembers. Buffy doesn’t talk to Faith about her life. Especially not her boyfriends. Not any more than she absolutely has to.

    “No, not me and Spike,” Buffy says, pushing off the railing and crossing the gap between them to sit down next to Faith. She’s so close Faith can smell that stupid, fruity body-spray she loves. Cherry blossoms. She’s so close Faith can’t help but feel a pang of regret about it, the way the ashtray smell of her bad habit is going to smother that nice, clean scent. “Me and you.”

    -

    When Buffy gets her memory wiped by a spell, she seeks out Faith to answer some burning questions.

    Summary

    “I’m, uh, glad you did, though. Pick up," Faith says.

    “Are you?”

    “I mean, yeah. I am. It’s good to…” Hear your voice. She can’t fucking say that. What kind of braindead asshole says that? Angel would, that’s who. “How ya been, B?” she says instead, like they’re buddies who call just to chat. Jesus.

    Or: After Buffy's resurrection, Faith gives her a call; several years earlier, Faith taps on Buffy's window.

    Summary

    “I know once I heard you were alive, I—”

    Shut up shut up shut up. Faith snapped her mouth shut, hoping Buffy was so wrapped up in what she was doing that she forgot Faith was talking.

    That was a stupid thing to hope for. Buffy caught Faith’s eye immediately, turning all that earnest energy right on her. “You what?” Buffy asked. “Once you heard I was alive, you what?”

    I busted the fuck out of jail and stole a car just so I could look at you.

    Summary

    Faith wants, at least a little, to run to her, hold her hands, touch her hair, blurt out with her usual shitty insensitivity, Jesus, B, you look like shit. What the fuck did they do to you? Something about Buffy's pale white stillness and brittle-looking smile stops her. Faith once found a ruined book in her apartment building's basement, so old and so damaged that the paper crumbled in her hands when she touched it. Buffy's face reminds her a lot of how that felt.

    Summary

    There’s no burst of dust, the way Faith expects. Only blood at her hands and blood at the stranger’s lips and the chilling sound of a death rattle fighting its way from his lungs.

    Or: Faith kills Allan Finch. The Scoobies offer her the literal crumbs of support she needs in order to not give in to darkness. Yes, this is another “Faith stays (mostly) good” season 3 AU.

    Summary

    Faith doesn’t notice anything strange until the next morning, when they wake up in bed together. In another time. In another world. In a world where they’re married and living together and raising Buffy’s little sis and everyone’s walking around treating the situation like it’s fine and good and normal and not like things are about fifty shades from okay.

    They’re the only ones who notice anything is wrong; the only ones who can remember. Everything’s different and nothing makes sense and they’re the only ones who can see it.

    Oh yeah, and apparently none of the Scoobies know that they’re Slayers, either.

    So… This is gonna suck.

    Summary

    Buffy closed her eyes and focused on her breathing. There was nothing to be gained by killing Faith. At least not immediately. “Tell me why I shouldn’t just shut the door and call the cops on you.”
    Faith opened her mouth.
    “Five words, or less.”
    “I need your help,” Faith churned out rapidly, staring at her boots. “Please,” she added, as an afterthought.
    “And I’d help you because?”
    “I’m really hot and you missed me?” she offered weakly.
    (or: faith goes to buffy for help. it turns out they both need it, in ways they're far too afraid to ask for. they still end up kissing about it)

    Summary

    “Faith,” Angel says. She turns to look at him -- his throat is working. He rubs one hand over his face. “Faith-- Buffy was killed on a routine patrol.”

    Faith can’t help but visualize her lying on the ground, being fed on. Someone’s teeth at her neck. Struggling and struggling until her body finally stops fighting. She says, “Oh.”

    Giles is dead. Willow’s in danger. The kid -- the little sister, supposedly -- under Angel’s protection and far away from the action. Red eyes, clenched fists. 'We lost her' and not 'she’s dead'.

    Summary

    A series of eight sequential fics, each one from the point of view of one of the characters in "The Body".

    1. Dawn
    2. Willow
    3. Xander
    4. Anya
    5. Tara
