Rating: PG
Summary: Willow and Kennedy discuss an unpleasant part of Willow's resurrection spell
Prompt: animal
"I think the faun is where I started going wrong," Willow says. Kennedy tries not to roll her eyes.
Willow's not a vegetarian.
"Bringing back the Slayer to defend the Hellmouth" is a much better reason to kill an animal than "I'd like a cheeseburger."
It's way more honest to kill an animal with your bare hands than to pay someone else to do it.
Willow's got plenty to feel guilty about without getting sentimental about Bambi.
But Kennedy remembers the conversations she’s had with Willow about pushing too much, and doesn’t argue. Relationships are all about sacrifices, after all.

But Kennedy also wasn't there, she didn't see what Buffy and everyone went through that year; it's easy for someone to be detached when they have no personal experience or history re: the matter at hand. Willow's not just talking about the faun.
