So I say to myself that Faith accepting a wetwork is the beginning of a long and compelling journey with many twists and revelations. Oh same here. Or as many twists and turns as can be packed into 4 issues...
I rather see Buffy seeking a chance to see Xander shirtless. And Xander being clueless about Renee's feelings. It's a dream. Buffy *might* be interested, since there's no one else, but even dream!Xander is trying to hide.
I tend to believe the latter. The scene in the training room was written to demonstrate sexy manly Xander and everything that happened in the first 4 issues won't have any consequences. Ouch! But I have to say that I can't really see any layers, which is sad. It's interesting though, because I'm re-watching Doctor Who (it's on every night at 7pm), and even the rubbish episodes usually have lots of metaphorical and thematical stuff going on, which is v. nice to discover. I'm praying that something similar will be the case with S8 - that once we know what's happening stuff will show hidden meanings. Um, prayer alone might not do... how does one perform a ritual sacrifice?
