ESSENTIAL
FRAGILITY (R)
by K. V. Wylie
I stumbled across this story while I was looking for something else. I read it and was floored. It is an epilogue to Graduation Day, but it is bittersweet to the senses. Willow, Giles, and Buffy share a diary that chronicles their emotional journey from Sunnydale. There is a curious air of deniability that surrounds all three, a perverse need to exist, and ultimately an overwhelming desire to survive. It is a study of the stages of grief.
