Thank you. Dawn and Buffy together has turned out to be such a pleasure, trying to imagine that relationship at a new level, where both of them are in a position to sort of "find themelves," figure out who they really are and what they want to be. I guess that's largely what I was going for here. Dawn's ideas on what kind of person she wants to be, and from there, on to Buffy's thoughts on that same thing.

Whew! In some ways, I really bit off more than I can chew with this project, but in other ways, it all just seems to come out that way naturally. Maybe that's me channeling Dawn here, wanting to see all the characters find their way to a good place, taking care of each other.
