Settle
Anya wants it all. A big house with a picket fence, many small children underfoot and a husband who loves her more with the passing of time.

She dreams of taking the Magic Box online and becoming a dot com millionaire. Anya understands how to sell and the internet would allow her to best use her business skills, while taking the browsers out of the equation and increasing her financial turnover.

Looking up from her cost calculations she sees Xander clowning around and realises that, whichever path she chooses, she will have to settle for less than her full potential.

Nice glimpse into Anya's fantasy world (which, of course, has to include money!)

Great job!

Anya deserved a hell of a lot better than she got.

Really cool one. I like how you write Anya, even when you do it seldomly.

Sometimes certain characters call to me, this time it was Anya.

Poor Anya. If she'd stayed around she'd have learned that while humans crave it all, they can't have it all.

I think Anya had enough get-up-and-go to make things work in her favour if she had the chance. Unfortunately, she didn't.
