Part 4C: Falling In Place

Xander trudged downstairs for the mid-morning meeting and exchange of information. His plan at the moment was mostly the same as it was before he had read the files: find a way to keep Faith away from the demons. The list now also included Cheryl, based on Bernie’s

Looking forward to the next chapter and for more LaTisha :D

Loving the stories behind the stories reveals. And LaTisha is picking up a lot of interesting information that's certainly making her re-assess a lot of things.

Lovely stuff.

Really liked this chapter.

Definitely a wish that went down now most likely with D'hoffryn. Question no is was it Rona or Xander. I think the former. It is also clear that Faith may be more clued in than he knows. He is starting to wonder why she cares and is still pissed because she still hasn't apologised to him.

Loved this line:

"Yup. Aliens. Definitely aliens with mind probes and mental reprogramming technology, Xander decided."

And this "Faith and Xander exchanged terrified looks." LOL

Great Faith observation.

"Faith uncomfortably fidgeted, like she was embarrassed that she’d been caught using her brain."

Of course the problem with Xander's plan is it will all go pear shape. The mob boss will also have an emokillsus. Thus by getting Faith and Cheryl together he has basically ensured Faith will take the hit as there is no way she will let Cheryl take the hit. At least that is my guess:-)

Still not sure what the dreams are about. Doesn't seem D'Hoffryn's usual MO, but I have a feeling that he might be thinking along the lines "Girls died crying out for vengeance; get Harris involved, that'll answer their wish and give him more pain."

What innovative plans they make. I loved the little moments of Xander/Faith issues. It's so wonderfully Xander that he'd be nice and bitter about Faith's total lack of apology, but still try to keep her away from the Emokillsus and not reveal her deep dark secret.
