Faith Gone Wild

Summary: 100 word Buffy-Girls Gone Wild Crossover Drabble

Winter 2004

The prosecutor pointed to a poster-sized picture of a New Orleans Mardi Gras crowd. A black-haired woman with a cigarette in her mouth and stack of beads around her neck was pulling up her shirt. The two naughty bits were blotted out.

"This young lady was a murderer and reportedly died in the Sunnydale Sinkhole. But what you have to consider is that she was underage when this scene was videotaped and subsequently used on television commercials without permission."

In Cleveland, Xander Harris watched his pirated "Girls Gone Wild Seized Video" and did a spell of his own.

In the "Alien Apocalypse" fic I'm currently writing, I establish that Faith visited New Orleans before she faced Kakistos and came to Sunnydale. I got to thinking what she might have done in Nawleans and the image of Faith in a Mardi Gras crowd immediately sprung to mind. Then I remembered the recent controversy about an underage girl in the "Girls Gone Wild" videos. I realize that according to the Buffy episode timeline, Faith probably wouldn't have been in N.O. at Mardi Gras time, but I still think it's a fitting image.
