Story Notes: Inspired by many amazing works of fanfic from authors like Dreamweaver, Holly, and OffYourBird, this is my own take on the series rewrite genre.  I will be altering the Buffyverse mythology a bit.  
 
This is a WIP but I hope to update at least once a month.  We shall see.  
 
The title of the story is lifted from an Alkaline Trio song, one of my favorite bands.
