Defender of the Faith PG-13

Fandom: BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER--crossover with Homicide

Why you must read this:

I missed the official Crossover day when I was on vacation so I'm doing it today. I give you---Defender of the Faith. Chicating had an amazing idea "what if the squad of Homcide was in Sunnydale instead of Baltimore?" She kept everyone the same, all the relationships and important touchstones in their lives---Bayliss and Pembleton, Kay, Beau, Munch. Adena Watson.

So now that you know the set up why should you read this?
This is the official summary: "Afterward, Tim liked to say that he sensed her rather than saw her, this teenager in a temptress' body."

Tim sees Faith hitch hiking and picks her up. Tim gets a wee bit attached and can't stop thinking about Faith, thinking and worrying and pondering. She nails the characters and the dailouge. The scenes in the squad room sound as if they came straight from the show Homicide. Well, if it were set in Sunnydale and they talked about Slayers.

Sorry I left it out during my original post.

She's getting ready to post her *other* Homicide/Buffy crossover, again Homicide in Sunnydale, except Xander goes selling Band Candy to the police department. It's called Sweets for the Sweet.
