Wow. You really make Faith/Gunn a perfect match. You write the two so well, I can totally see this actually happening during this ep.

Hee. They'd so want to go and kill things together. Very cool!

:)

Aww, yay! It's perfect - exactly what I wanted :) So nice to see them bonding, because I could see them as an excellent match for each other. Love the banter, and And nothing was as sexy as a girl with a broadsword who knew how to use it. Heh. Men are so predictable ;) Seriously, excellent job, thank you so much!

You're welcome! They do make a really good couple.

BTW, this version was missing a huge chunk of the middle (bad LJ-cut tag), so you may want to reread, as the Fred part didn't so much make sense the first time I posted this.

Ah! That explains it, heh. Yeah, i saw that before, and it looked like a formatting error, but I didn't want to ask in case it wasn't a mistake because...awkward, heh. Love the reflections on Fred. It is sad how that relationship ended.

Oh, yeah. Because I might say "No, I think it makes perfect sense. What the hell is your problem?." And then we'd, like, get into a huge flame war, and nobody wants that.

Someone on another board that's more beta-focused pointed it out to me. Total d'oh moment.

Awww, this is lovely. Faith and Gunn have the potential to have such great chemistry, and you really make it come to life here. Plus, I can totally see a scenario like this happening. Great job!
