Summary
“I know once I heard you were alive, I—”
Shut up shut up shut up. Faith snapped her mouth shut, hoping Buffy was so wrapped up in what she was doing that she forgot Faith was talking.
That was a stupid thing to hope for. Buffy caught Faith’s eye immediately, turning all that earnest energy right on her. “You what?” Buffy asked. “Once you heard I was alive, you what?”
I busted the fuck out of jail and stole a car just so I could look at you.
~~~
A S6 AU: What if, when Faith heard Buffy was back from the dead, she decided to go back to Sunnydale?

Summary
Faith wants, at least a little, to run to her, hold her hands, touch her hair, blurt out with her usual shitty insensitivity, Jesus, B, you look like shit. What the fuck did they do to you? Something about Buffy's pale white stillness and brittle-looking smile stops her. Faith once found a ruined book in her apartment building's basement, so old and so damaged that the paper crumbled in her hands when she touched it. Buffy's face reminds her a lot of how that felt.

Summary
There’s no burst of dust, the way Faith expects. Only blood at her hands and blood at the stranger’s lips and the chilling sound of a death rattle fighting its way from his lungs.
Or: Faith kills Allan Finch. The Scoobies offer her the literal crumbs of support she needs in order to not give in to darkness. Yes, this is another “Faith stays (mostly) good” season 3 AU.

Summary
Faith doesn’t notice anything strange until the next morning, when they wake up in bed together. In another time. In another world. In a world where they’re married and living together and raising Buffy’s little sis and everyone’s walking around treating the situation like it’s fine and good and normal and not like things are about fifty shades from okay.
They’re the only ones who notice anything is wrong; the only ones who can remember. Everything’s different and nothing makes sense and they’re the only ones who can see it.
Oh yeah, and apparently none of the Scoobies know that they’re Slayers, either.
So… This is gonna suck.
