Summary
“We can’t do this anymore,” Buffy says, pulling her top back on. “You held a knife to my best friend’s throat. It’s not happening again.”
“The knife or the sex?” Faith asks. Buffy’s focused on pulling her socks on, but she can practically hear the smirk forming.
“Both.”
“You can’t beat him, y’know. He’s all immortal and shit now.”
Buffy’s groan is slightly muffled as she shrugs into her sweater. “Enough about your boss, F. I’m not just gonna lay down and —”
“Lay down? What were we doin’ just now, yo?”
or: Buffy tries to save Faith after Finch's death. They get lost somewhere along the way.

Summary
Andy left Miranda behind in Paris, but it hasn’t kept them from finding each other, falling apart, and coming back together in the years since.
Desire path (noun): an unplanned path caused by human movement, typically emerging as shortcuts where deliberately-constructed paths take a longer or more circuitous route, have gaps, or are non-existent.

Summary
New Year’s Eve was never a holiday she looked forward to; more than any other date, it seemed to inspire a certain loneliness in her, even when she’d had someone to share the evening with.
She’d never admit it, of course, that she sometimes fantasized about the magic of a New Year’s kiss shown in movies and recounted in songs. It was a horrible cliche meant for teenagers and pathetic cat owners, not Miranda Priestly.
Twenty blocks north, Andy nursed a glass of wine alone on the couch of her new studio apartment and wondered what Miranda was doing.
or: seven New Year's Eves with Miranda and Andy.

Summary
Buffy Summers is dead. Without a protector, the Scoobies summon the remaining Slayer, choosing to hope that they, and Faith, can put aside their past to keep Sunnydale safe.
Then Willow decides that she wants to bring Buffy back.
When Buffy returns, her friends say that she's different, wrong. Faith's hardly saved anyone, much less herself, but soon it's clear that only another Slayer can give Buffy the help that she needs, no matter how much they might hurt each other in the process.
