She felt, deeply, that boredom and wartime shouldn't go together

Oh boy, Dawn has a lot to learn about wartime...

Illyria making a spontaneous suggestion, or rather, Dawn's complete discombobulation by same, is interesting. Maybe they will make a good team?

Also, you totally got me with the Major Finn switcheroo! And she's so nice! Who can resist her? (I'm one of those who doesn't hate Sam.)

I like Sam too. Not her fault she is in a dire ep when we all cringe for Buffy.

I love to play with the connections of Dawn and Illyria. I just wonder if they will get more human or less as a result?

Illyria almost made an expression of annoyance. It was in the extra intensity of her eyes.

Baha! Love it. You don't see Dawn/Illyria interaction every day...

brutti_ma_buoni January 28 2011, 18:55:00 UTC

*g* I love writing them together. The possibilities are huge.

Illyria with an idea? That's got to be worrysome.

Love the interaction between Dawn and Illyria. I'm intrigued with the idea though. Sounds like it could work.

She's very clever. As long as she's on your side...

Oh, a bit of calm before the storm.

I suppose Illyria is detached enough that she can stand back and see the bigger picture and know what has to be done.

*eeeee, icon!*

*koff* Um, something about fic... They need a breather, though I'm not sure I have enough fighting in this section. Oh well, it will come.

*eeeee, icon!*

The random iconiser chose him just for you :)

I guess it's because I really like Xander/Illyria as a pairing that I love the idea that they've both come to the same conclusion about Willow. And Illyria being almost annoyed that Dawn finished her train of thought was very funny.

"Take a breath, Slayer Council. It might be your last" Well you can't leave it there... *g*

Heh. Next part (the major fic, really), is marinating nicely, fear not.
