I am ridiculously glad that you've got a new fic up-- and as always, am very much looking forward to whatever you've got planned! Xander and Faith both seem almost relaxed through some parts of the fic, as though they're comfortable with their relationship-- and then, that disappears as soon as Xander's paranoia or hints about what they're planning come back up. It's a delicious tension I can't wait to see resolved!
