When Faith looks at Buffy she's sometimes surprised Buffy was chosen by The Powers That Be to be "the Chosen One" with her small body that seems it could do no harm. But then Faith sees her take out two vamps without breaking a sweat and reminds herself that Buffy is fearfully and wonderfully made.

Faith knows Buffy's not perfect. That she has flaws. But Buffy saves the world a lot despite these flaws and that's a reason why Faith loves her.

In Faith's dreams she falls to her knees and asks Buffy to forgive her. Buffy doesn't say anything but she doesn't beat Faith to death either.

When Buffy died, Faith cried for a day. Tears fall down again, come let the healing begin.

Buffy tells Faith the skeletons of her past craziness are gone, that she trusts her. But when Faith's alone she can feel her failures waiting to devour her.

In that moment Faith hates herself. She wishes she was someone else.
