"Okay so Magic can be very powerful. It can make people and things act, look, or think differently." Willow explained while she sat with Faith in the Chemistry Lab.
"Really," Faith asked, "Like you could change someone's whole personality?"
"Well an experienced witch can. Like last year when Amy turned Buffy into a rat after making every woman in Sunnydale fall in love with Xander, or when Amy's mom switched bodies with her. But I don't have that type of power yet. I did re-curse Angel last year and a couple of things I experimented with, but Magic can be very dangerous even when it's being used for a good reason."
"So you couldn't turn B into a rat? Hypothetically speaking."
"I guess, I mean I know the book Amy got the spell out of, but these aren't parlor tricks. Spells can really hurt and sometimes kill people. I was ready to put an axe through Xander's head because he didn't love me."
"So I should leave Magic and Witchcraft to you got it. I still don't understand why Peroxide thought this would help with my training."
"Because Magic is always happening on the Hell Mouth and it's good to know that if someone's acting out of character it might be a spell."
"Out of Character like this?" Faith smiled as she leaned in to kiss Willow.
Willow was surprised at how much she was enjoying the kiss until an image of Oz popped into her head. "Yeah exactly like that. Very good for your first magic lesson, but I have lesson plans and bye." Willow raced out of the room. I can't believe Faith is gay and I really can't believe that I think I am too.
