Re: Strange Bedfellows 1/4 (Faith/Willow)

>I know, not the pairing you were looking for, sorry :p

Mayra,

Actually, while I can't speak for the other two lists you sent this to,
Willow/Faith is not a problem on this list. It may not be what we're
"looking for" but it is a non-canon femslash pairing featuring either B
or W, so that's okay. (And even that "rule" isn't written in stone;
it's really just my preference.) Buffy/Willow is preferred here and
should constitute the clear majority of the work here, but an occasional
W/F is plenty of fun. (I know a Kombat Koala you've made very happy,
right, Sammy?)

Heck, I myself have posted Buffy/Faith, Buffy/Cordelia and
Willow/Cordelia here. So don't sweat it.

And, pardon my [lack of] manners, but Welcome! New members who come
bearing fic make me almost as happy as Brasil winning the World Cup
makes our listdad. Glad to have you posting here!

BTW, there actually is a Willow/Faith list (
http://groups@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/group/NightFires ), so you can share with
your target audience as well as with all of us. That list looks like
it's been pretty quiet lately, so I'm sure they'll be glad of it.

Liked the fic very much, with Faith making her dramatic entrance and the
gang being shocked. And I liked how she wasn't picking fights, but
wasn't backing down, either. Giles's reaction was delightful, and so
was Anya, protective of the shop as ever. (And besides, the only time
she met Faith, Faith was in Buffy's body, and she never saw Buffy in
Faith's, either.)

Cute bit with the message board being the rendezvous point. Myself, I
wouldn't have thought a threat to break an arm would be a romantic
touchstone, but things are always a little different with Faith around.
(Besides, there's a whole Cordy/Faith fandom, and their interaction was
pretty much limited to an elbow to the face, so...)

Looking forward to the rest of this, and to having you here, generally.

Thanks,

Dan


PS--the only bad thing about posting here is that your moderator has an
unfortunate tendency to nitpick, by pointing out little things like the
fact that someone out on parole doesn't need to post bail (that's to
guarantee an appearance at trial, not after prison). Just ignore me
when I get this way :)
