btvs/arrow, dawn/thea, We’re broken. It’s like we have all these jagged edges that scare other people off, but when we’re with each other, our jagged edges fit together and we’re almost whole.
Dad was a black-hooded figure tied up in a basement in thick chains. His lips were cracked and bleeding and he begged for his daughter's forgiveness. Dawn thought of the video Thea had shown her the night before - Thea's arrows driving into the body of her friend and her face not her own and her body jerky like a puppet's - and kicked daddy dearest in the face with her platform leather boots

Like a half hour after posting I went back to put a trigger warning on the link-post because I realized (a) Dawn nearly let a vamp kill her girlfriend JUST FOR THE SAKE OF KNOWLEDGE and (b) Dawn and her girlfriend beat a guy to death and then had sex next to the dead body... and I really felt for a minute there that I was making some truly terrible life choices. Except it all worked for me and it was all necessary?!
and that its actually easier for Thea in some ways than Dawn. Monsters have existed to her for a long time, now their just taking a new form, an actual monster form. And with Dawn its different, its reality setting in that people are monsters too. The part she and her family tries to forget.One of my biggest issues with BtVS - but MORESO WITH ATS THE WHITE MALE SAVIOR CASTING JUDGEMENT ON IMMIGRANT 'DEMONS' AND BASICALLY JUST PROTECTING A STATUS QUO WHERE HE HAS POWER - is that it puts too much emphasis on the metaphor and doesn't look at the reality? even when the reality (Kendra and Faith as

well if your making terrible life choices, then so am I because I read them without hte warnings and I loved it. and it all made sense in my head and seemed you know, reasonable for the fic. so again, we're making terrible life choices together if their terrible. :D
Obviously I have to read this fic. I mean the fact taht it has Dawn, Cordy, and Illyeria alone. But yes, defenitely bookmarking.
She so would. And make-out with either Felicity or Laurel or both and with the one it would be sugary-sweet and with the other it would be angry shouting first but either way it would be delicious
see this is why you should totally write more crossovers with these two and then add in buffy and your awesome shipping taste. :D
I love that you saw that for Dawn, Malcolm stands in a bit for the monks. It's always about Thea - she'll always tell herself it's about Thea - but it's also really, really
