Hey, just to let you know, I was researching Normal Again, by coincidence, and Buffy was in the asylum for 2 weeks. Of course, you don't have to stick to canon on that...doesn't matter much in the grand scheme, but it was on my mind since I just read it overnight. :)

Great intro! How very, very interesting...I wonder who sent Buffy the little laptop? Really curious about what your reasons will be for Wes and Faith hooking up, since he's so stuck on Fred right now. Angel watched the whole surgery...awwwww...he can't seem to not care. :)
Well, if Dawn is staying at the Slayer house, then she'll be pretty safe there. There are certainly lots more icky places she could go for fun. Buffy can't keep Dawn inside all her life, and if she holds those reins too tight, Dawn will only revolt worse.
And Lindsey ends up with someone other than Eve...hmmm...wonder where she'll come from?

I'm also wondering if Cordy will still make an appearance?
