Oh, lovely. And very hot, considering you fade to black.

Thank you! :)

I love this whole thing, but especially the tone switches -- it starts off funny and snappy, but then there's that little possessive twist from Faith, and the bitter Cordy in the second half of the story really feels true. I also love those few lines of description about Buffy in the second to last paragraph, all those little things Cordelia would notice.

Thank you so much!

Ooh. Um. I'm not sure I can articulate beyond "ooh".

This was a very good fic. Most threesomes, this one included, aren't easy to write credibly (getting two characters into bed can be hard enough!) but you succeeded with flying colours. Your Cordelia is a delight.

She's a lot of fun to write. *g* Thank you!

Oh yay! This is so excellent, and it's two of my favorite pairings in one fic. The voices were excellent- you made me laugh out loud in several places so I can't pick just one. And even though it is fun and funny, it's also a little sad. Buffy loses all of them, and knowing what Cordy is in for as well just makes everything a little bittersweet.

Thank you so much for writing. I loved it.

Thank you so much! I'm really glad you liked this. :)

I'd been wanting to write Buffy/Faith for quite some time now. I had no idea Cordelia would jump in and demand the spotlight.

Ooh. This starts off cute, and ends edgy. Your descriptions are vivid and engrossing. I enjoyed this (and I don't tend to read early-seasons Buffyverse at all). Nice job!

Thank you! :)
