Review:
When Wesley’s father dies, his former Master comes back to claim him and the AI crew realize things aren’t as they always appeared.

I’m a huge fan of both Mad Poetess and James Walkswithwind, but, that being said, this story is more crack!fic than their usual fare. Wesley is—and has always been—a member of another race that serves as slaves for other species, which, if you follow canon at all seems at least a bit far-fetched. But, if you can suspend disbelief of the initial premise, you will find a rather interesting and fun slave recovery fic.

The Gunn/Wes pairing is rather underdone in fandom, and this is a rather sweet example of their relationship. The nice thing about this fic is that both Cordelia and Angel also are extremely supportive to Wesley. This makes for interesting dynamics when the Scoobies come to visit near the end. All in all, this is an interesting read, if a bit difficult to believe.
