Slayer dreams #8
Mar. 6th, 2003 07:19 amSpoilers for everything ever, right up through last night's Angel. 'Cause me and
heres_luck watched and we were a very happy pair of fangirls, thank you very much.
First up was an Angelus and demon!Cordy dream, about which the only thing I now remember distinctly was making out with Wes. Yes, I am a convert to the Cult of Dark Chocolatey Wesley. No, I have no shame--or, at least, my subconscious doesn't.
Later there was a Faith dream (!!!). It started off (and bear with me now) as one of those '20s English mysteries with everybody trapped in a country house for the weekend. At least two of the guests were incognito detectives, so there was lots of snooping around in each other's rooms and spying on each other and all that kind of stuff.
I don't know how Buffy and Faith got into this, but they did. S3 Buffy, mostly (definitely not S7, which is a pity), but Faith from "Salvage." (And for some reason we got a flashback to their confrontation at the end of "Bad Girls"--no, you don't get it. I don't care--which I know was extraordinarily relevant to the dream, but now I don't remember why.) Faith was hiding, not from the law per se, but from her step-father, who was exactly the kind of bastard you'd expect. The female detective snooping about had once been hired by the step-father to find Faith, but Faith had managed to elude her. Faith had to fight the male detective to get him to take her seriously (a little like Connor). The best bit, though, was Faith using the trick Xander tries in "Goodbye Iowa"--making out with Buffy to keep from being noticed. Only for Faith it worked, and her stepfather didn't realize that one of the girls making out on the couch was the girl he was looking for. Buffy was shocked and distressed, but also kind of interested (clearly, my subconscious finds a lot more credibility in Buffy-as-lesbian than my conscious mind does), and would have been willing to experiment further except that--in the genuine Jossian fashion--these people trying to attack them kept messing up the moment.
