Faith asks Buffy to chill so she can explain, and Buffy really doesn't. Yes she does!!!! How can everyone have seen a different scene to me? The scene isn't there for Faith's sake - it's there for Buffy. For Buffy to realise that Faith truly understands what Buffy is going through and how she feels - that she isn't alone. It sets up Buffy's epiphany the night when the First talks to her in 'Chosen' - all the talk of 'there's a burden we can't share'. Except they do! And they know it and acknowledge it. I love that scene with a passion - love S7 generally for the way it delves into the loneliness of the Slayer, and then in the end turns it upside down.
Your fic-writing efforts are always much appreciated. Aw, thank you. Although at the moment I'm slower than Joss - at least I'm not posting until it's all finished. *g*
