Welcome to what's gonna be my second super long epic for this fandom. It will be four acts.
Buffy does start out as a twelve-year-old girl, but she won't stay that way. Any Spuffy will not be underage Spuffy. If you've read Every Letter, you know how this goes.
For characters, I'll add them as they come into the story to avoid spoilers.
For warnings, I'm pre-loading all of them right out of the gate. It is going to be a dark story, but hopefully not too dark. Again, if you've read Every Letter, you'll know how this goes.
Overall, hope you all enjoy! This outline's been bouncing around in my head for at least the past year, so I'm super excited to start sharing it. Special shoutout to OYB for beta'ing and being an all-around great person. <3

Hey, long time no update. Had a pretty hectic and drama-filled life over the holidays; took the following month to rest and recuperate. Feeling recharged and updates should be regular again from here on out. (Also, would've posted on Monday, but it was Valentine's Day. ) Thanks for the patience!

So sorry for the delay in this one. It's been done for weeks now, but my grandmother passed away. It's more bittersweet than sad simply because she'd been ill for such a long time, but I spent more time than I'd originally thought helping my own mother through the process.
Adding to the delay, I also wanted to get caught up with comment replies (at least a little) before I posted, but that didn't happen, so now, weeks later, I figure you guys would just prefer the chapter. Comment replies will come one day. I do read and treasure them all. <3
