I wonder if that's when she got her idea about sharing the Slayer power? I think it niggled something at the back of her mind, but it didn't blossom until her talk with The First later on.
She's just been kidnapped, thrown up, had a homicidal Slayer attack her, and just when she'd overpowered her enemy Faith intervened and saved Gigi's life by throwing Buffy out of a second storey window. I think a little anger is understandable... And if that was where it ended, then I *might* just maybe be able to understand it. But issue 9 pretty much puts paid to the idea that it was just the shock and confusing that caused her to lash out. And her extreme reaction to 'I don't want you to be part of this' is still so jarring that it annoys me even more than the artwork. If this was an ordinary fic I'd have walked away long ago. Dunno why I can't this time. I think it's a cross between curiosity, masochism and hope springing eternal.
And I *so* shouldn't be here... *looks at stack of Christmas cards and sighs*
ETA: And yes, it effectively is season 9... The thing is, I didn't watch Season 3 when the show first aired, which caused some confusion later on. (*g*) However, this I was able to remedy and filling in the blanks was hugely enjoyable. I can't do this with the comics, and I worry that in many cases there quite simply isn't a coherent back-story.
