I love this! I love that Katherine is able to kick Buffy's ass (about time someone did exactly that, b.t.w) and the mind-reading bit is fun too ! (And a little spooky). I'm loving the original character in general, so much so I'm almost sad that this is going to be a spuffy (almost!, just almost, I'm a shipper). You're style is really clear and fluid, which is a BIG relief and a pleasure in fanfic, cause, hey, not all that normal...The dialogues, most of all, I love. They're really natural and they make sense. You rock! Can't wait for the next! (Will there be most Buffy's-ass-kicking? Pretty please?)
