cute story! nice to see a story of what would've been different if faith's watcher didn't die and that buffy and faith met in better circumstance.

thanks for sharing and hope you're both well!

i do not understand why she did not tell that she was also a slayer and that she could use her help at Sunnydale, then they could be together.

You should really write a sequel to this. I wanna know if Faith and Joanna reconcile (plus I am curios to see how the events of this story would change the rest of the series.)

Good story, great characterisation, top fuff.

In Potential a group of potentials were subjected by Buffy and Spike to a survival training test similar to the Cruciamentum which they passed.

I cried that chappy. I'm such a sap. You done but good in this fic. Fantastic. ) enjoyed it a great deal. And all that great jazz and more. :)

Wow. It seems seriously OOC somehow for buffy to jump into makin gout with a girl in the middle of the bronze with all the scoobs looking on. still i'm not complaining. glad to see them get all kissy faced. ) btw is anyone still reading these reviews ten years later? lol. Still great story even if it has been that long.

That was a really really well written and sad and tender parting. This is an incredible story. So so good. But dammit stupid Buffy needs to spill the Slayer beans lol. What happens next? I'm so curious to find out.

Sexy. But when does Buffy spill the beans? Nice dancing and its funny to see Faith even more nervous than Buffy. I totally buy it though because it actually matters to Faith and that always freaks her out. Very well done.

Man. Dru is dead. I thought the blonde vamp was spike for a minute. Good stuff, but damn why did buffy give away the game at the last minute? i thought the whole thing with the hiding from faith was so the council WOULDNT know she was involved. Geez.

Faith all nervous is really cute. All nervous for a date. Aww.. This is a really sweet awesome fic. Great job. :)

Ok so now I got to hear buffy's reasons for not coming and telling Faith who she is why shes there etc. I'm glad you included it because it was sorely needed. I don't agree with it or think it makes sense 100% but it seems like maybe a buffy thing to do so it doesnt break the immersion. The dancing and interatctions between slayers is well done and fun. That thing with the jock and faith was a LITTLE unbelievable but I guess i only know that cuz i was all into martial arts at some point. If you're trained even someone twice your size and twice as strong isnt gonna be able to drag you anywhere like a toddler. Still it was nice when buffy came to the rescue.. i was expecting her to open up a little slayer can of woop as to make faith start questioning things but the way it went down was cool too. Great job so far! :D

Those Watcher bitches. Evil the lot of them. Grrrr

oK...SO I don't get why Buffy doesn't just go 'hai imma buffy de oderz slayaz i'm here cuz imma stop u frum getiing kelled' from the get go. I was picturing leading off with ' hi me buffy vampire slaya' and 'been having these dreams about ya. guess what happened on my 18th birthday'? So i'm not sure where the motivation to not say anything is coming from except maybe to build tension. Its a sticking point but its not earth breaking... its not such a big deal that the fic is undreadable. its still really good. just left me with a big question mark as to why the hell buffy is doing that. great story so far, im loving it. you are a really good writer IMO.

This is a great idea for a fic. And so far the writing is top notch. The idea of Buffy and Faith meeting in completely different circumstances for sure has its appeal for writing some good juicy stuff. And did I mention I like your writing? It's clear and straightforward and easy to follow and the dialogue feels right. That is most important in my book methinks. Great job!
