Following the post-resurrection rendezvous, people on both sides are desperately curious about how the meeting went.

Buffy returns to Sunnydale to find her friends softly concerned and not knowing how to ask. She says that she can’t talk about it. (It’s true.)

Angel returns to the Hyperion to find his friends gently mocking the ‘grand drama’ of the vampire in love with a Slayer. They do ask; he refuses to tell them anything, and mocks them in turn.

She feels empty, alone, because she’s positive her friends can never understand.

He feels that he’s home again … because his do.
