I really love the last line! Well done.

Escapism is definately part of Buffy's mindset here. Does she then see handcuffs as a passive sort of bondage that she's resigned to or is she an active agent in her own escape? You brought up some lovely food for thought with the last line. Well done.

being kept from your life through no fault of your own.
What a perfect line, so beautifully encapsulating S6 Buffy. Thank you! :)

Very nice; I like the recurring handcuffs as an image both of her sex life and her bondage to her current life.

Drabbles are hard but I think you've written a good one here. It pretty much encapsulates mid-period BtVS season 6 in just 100 words.
