Why This Must Be Read: In this story, Xander Harris is no longer recognisable as Xander Harris, comic foil, The One Who Sees. And he will break your heart. This story deserves more than one reading - it's bleak and sparse and, somehow, it doesn't stretch too far that the characterisations are not believable. The end feels like a knife in the heart.
