Why this must be read:
This story is a little bit fluffy but very satisfying, as Jennifer Oksana's fics usually are. Wesley is living with his daughter in San Fransisco and has just gotten an amicable divorce from his wife, Lilah, when he runs into Gunn for the first time in eight years. I love the sparks between these two, and the way that they talk about Fred and Angel, with a sort of painless wistfulness that I enjoyed. I also liked Gunn and Lilah meeting each other again after all this time. Lilah is still unabashedly evil, and both she and Gunn recognize that they're on either side of the fight, but they have Wesley in common. I'm not a fan of Lilah, but the author is, and in this story she almost makes me like her. Also, season five canon is not welcome here.
"We live two blocks away from each other," Wesley repeated for the fourth time. "It's unbelievable. It's something out of a bad melodrama. Two friends, separated for years, reunited one morning out of the blue by--well, the exploding pen is almost as bad as the sudden rainstorm or the flat tire, isn't it?"
Gunn snorted. They were each on their second or third coffee and Wes was on his third bagel. It had been comfortable. It had been more than comfortable, the two of them giving life summaries, sharing photographs, and handling the difficult bits gracefully.
