Fic: "Dead Souls" Part 3 (Faith, Xander, Sunnydale)

Apr 01, 2007 21:21

Title: Dead Souls (3)

I don't know where this came from. It assumes that the Hellmouth was never opened, and that Orpheus ended differently. This takes place immediately after Dead Souls (2)

So... catching up on this one....

Spike is still crazy in the high school basement, and Buffy is working as counselor in the high school and back in college?

Whew!

Okay --- neat update.... I like Faith saying she's the slayer vampire, whereas B is the vampire slayer. Also like the neat way B backed outta the magic shop....

And Anya! expanding her business to the Espresso Pump!!

neat one.

Ah, but Faith, as Exposition!Vamp, has said that Spike and Connor are out wandering around together in perversity, and that Buffy is in college full-time. Robin is off looking for the new Slayer that was Called when Faith died. It's all began in media res, but I promise you that I'm working from notes. Heh.

And I mentioned in part two that Anya "snapped up" the Espresso Pump when everyone was leaving town, and could have bought Xander's apartment building...I tried to imply that was how he got the Summers house from the mortgagor.

Now I'm concerned, but not concerned enough to rewrite it...I'm still freaked out from watching "Dexter" and I will. Never. Do. So. Again.

Dexter's freaky, isn't it?

I have to watch in small measures - five minutes, ten. Never the full fifty and never before bed.

Finally caught up with this. More!

I'm such a Faith fan; it's always nice to see her...even vamped. Like how you're telling the backstory in bits and pieces, and I adore your notawimp!Xander.

Thanks---for Xander, I started with an old interview of Nick Brendon, where he said he would never have had Xander go into construction. (0r carpenter? something to that effect.) So, no wimp, and no construction.

samsom April 2 2007, 04:14:40 UTC

Yeesh. The new slayer's gonna take one look at Faith and Buffy, and their collective issues, and run outta Sunnydale. lol.

Love your Faith, she's got bite. And I love any fic that lets Buffy go back to college. The girl earned it.

Lovely stuff.

Buffy and Faith have a unique sisterhood, don't they? And Faith can make Buffy go nuts even faster than Dawn---as no monks made Buffy love Faith.

Anya made shooing motions with her hands. "Please don't discuss your personal problems in front of the money."

BWAH!

tesla321 April 2 2007, 16:24:36 UTC

Well, you could make the money sad and go away.

tabaqui April 2 2007, 16:22:46 UTC

How'd i miss this?

I like Faith shooting Buffy down about Angel. She really did have a major *issue* with him actually, you know, moving on with his life. Heh.

And Xander as patrol-buddy. Of course!
:)

Poor Spike.
*pets him*

tesla321 April 2 2007, 16:26:07 UTC

Eh, he's up in Seattle having slashy demon-killing fun with Connor and being all misunderstood and drinking in bars with indy bands. I just wanted to clear the decks for this AU.

tabaqui April 2 2007, 16:30:15 UTC

Ah ha!
Okay, then.
I like that.
