my consistent post-series headcanon

deird1My post-series Buffyverse tends to be full on contradiction. If you look at my fic, you'll find all sorts of couples, Buffy dying before Faith, Faith dying before Buffy, Giles dying before everyone... It's all a bit of a weird mess. (And I like it that way.)
There are a few things, however, that I definitely think happen. They always happen, no matter what else my fic does – and I get irrationally irritated every time someone else's fanfic contradicts them.
Here's my headcanon:
- They all end up where Andrew says they are in Damage, for at least that year. (Buffy and Dawn in Italy, Giles in England, Willow and Kennedy in South America, Xander in Africa)
- Only one person (don't care who) survives the battle at the end of AtS.
- Buffy and Faith are joint Head Slayers. They are also besties (or a couple).
- Willow and Kennedy never break up. Kennedy never stops feeling like Willow's heart still belongs to Tara.
- At least once, Kennedy and Buffy got extremely drunk together and had a massive session of complaining about relationships, exes, and romance in general.
- Dawn goes to university in Boston, and studies languages and ancient texts.
- Dawn and Andrew are best friends.
Minor things, but important in my head. I'd be interested to know what the rest of you have as your headcanon absolutes.
