sweet! I totally missed a second update so now I get two! Total fluke coming here at a precise enough moment to win a second dibs. I was floating around the internet reading about art law and repatriation. Got good links if anyone's interested.
Speaking of interesting! Your story, Jen! So good (per usual - I don't expect anything else)!
I like what you've laid out here, a broken Willow (in numerous ways, clearly) but a bitter and snarky Willow at that. Couple lines that broke me up:

. Ha! Faboosh.
Willow in a wheelchair. That tastes of backstory, and indeed we got a whiff in this section. I love that the wheelchair detail wasn't apparent in the first update. We didn't need it, did we? We didn't need to see it then. First things first, we got a lick of her attitude, rotten and callous it may be (and I'm super interested to see the dynamics it'll play out with the rest of the gang). Only when it was relevant did you have to describe her wheeling 'round the room and to the table. Well done indeed!
So excited to see where this goes. The gang is all there, I have a feeling it's going to be a treat watching them do their thing. Already

Buffy, always being Buffy, not letting Bitter Betty interfere with her fun. [Personally, I loathe Matthew. Between him and Brad, I'll go with Brad.]
