That's a good point, but while I can see Faith as a drifter, I really can't see her leaving the country, or at least the continent, even if she isn't a fugitive. To me, that types of movement requires being a troubleshooter--and then we're back in the situation of Faith being pushed into a position of responsibility.

So I can see Faith wandering around and kiling things (even though that;'s not what my Watcher!verse Faith does), but I just don't see Faith wandering all the way Africa, because that'd involves taking a plane, and that implies some sense of purpose that I just don't see Faith as having.
