Oh, you're more than welcome. Great little ficlet, that.
Normally, I'm all in favour of "it'll be explained later", but... it's always nice if we know exactly what will be explained later, and how much later. Let's say s5 had been released like this; we would have had to wait... let's see, last act of "Buffy vs Dracula" until last act of "No Place Like Home", that's... 17 comic issues, a year and a half, until we found out Dawn wasn't a ridiculous retcon. The time frame IS a problem, and will be more so if the comic continues to be as vague as it has been about a lot of things.
Good call on Rowena and Leah, though. Imagine what would happen if some of the Slayers lined up with the General to fight on the side of "good"? And here's an interesting thought - which side will Faith be on? Not that I'm hoping we'll get another round of Faith vs Buffy just for the sake of it, but...
