Something next to normal, that's the thing I'd like to try

Oh, Anya. So weird, I was thinking back, and although Buffy was highly generous with excellent characters, Faith had always had a tiny leg up on the rest - but a couple of years ago I found that it had shifted, and Anya took over the pedestal. She had such an amazing story, really broke my heart in The Body, and her talking with Andrew at the hospital, and when Xander walked away... Oh Anya.
