Good story, well written. I love the dialogues, often very funny. The characters ring true. However i missed the usual action, fights and fantastic events of the Buffyverse. It's like a perfect world, maybe too pink for me, but that works well. The storyline isn't conventional and doesn't sound "déjà vu". I found a lot of sensitivity in the narration, and enjoyed that. All the characters seems to be loved by the author, and he managed to find a way to give them a good bit (my English is awful, i'm sorry!). That's very nice.

Reading this story, i realized how much Oz must have been disappointed by the season 6. I recommend that fiction, even if in my heart i can't believe in that ship...sorry, because i can't see Buffy being in love with Xander but above all because i believe in X/W! Oh god, it's hard to read a fanfic based on a ship which refutes the ships i support!

Rating: very good 85/100

Dialogue a big strength here. The "two characters go away on holiday and find each other" plot is as old as the hills, but still sweetly done.
Nice lack of bashing alternative candidates/characters. Would have liked more Giles, but hey, my issues.
