It was in some respects more meta than a character piece. I got the idea for it after I did that big WHY I LOVE B/A post and a few different people mentioned they just thought B/A were too alpha to work out together. This is my response; I think it can work because in the end, love can win out over all those things. Not saying it will, but that's why I love B/A--there's that hope there.
And I guess we like our heroes to be just that and it's hard to imagine them having to 'live' with the details.
The other reason I wrote this fic was a meta I read about fandoms so often being centered around "apocalyptic" events that writing about the characters leaving the cap off the toothpaste would be missing the point. But I think the deal with Buffy and Angel is their hearts are in the right place--they're both heroic, they're both leaders, they both love with timeless intensity. It's the little things that would really catch up with them, I think. Anyway, thanks so much for seeing that. Glad you liked it!
