halfamoon | Day 3 Theme ~ Self-care - The Slayer That Came in from the Cold (BtVS, Faith POV)

TITLE: The Slayer That Came in from the Cold kerk-hiraeth.dreamwidth.org/20696.html

PROMPT: Day three ~ Self-care

FANDOM: Buffy the Vampire Slayer

AUTHOR: kerk hiraeth

RATING: R (though personally I see it as PG-13)

LENGTH: 350

CHARACTER: Faith Lehane

SUMMARY: In this 'verse (I refer to it as the FemaleHusband!verse) Willow was killed in Season Six and Tara, with some assistance from Dawn destroyed Sunnydale, turning the surrounding the area into a lake. Faith helped create what has become a global Slayer HQ near a town called Trillium, which sits at the epicentre of a trio of Hellmouths in Pennsylvani and Ohio.

After the HQ became operational Faith went walkabout and now; more than five years after the TV series would have concluded in time, she is returning; partly because she has been asked to, but mostly because she has decided it was time.

A/N: It took me longer than it should have to decide this was a fit for Halfamoon; then some time to decide, finally, exactly which prompt was the best fit.

ps. the music seemed appropriate; same song as when I originally posted but a different version for a different show (Everything Sucks! in this case) and a different venue.
