I love the surprise visit of Giles! I really do love him as a character! I can't believe Xander was so insensative - go dawn for telling him off - great chapter as always
Thanks again, sweetie!

Well, we couldn't leave Giles mouldering away in England, could we?

As for Xander, he's sensitive to the point of paranoia when he thinks someone has slighted him, but not so good when it comes to other people. You just have to look at how he treated Anya in canon.

excellent chapter...i was right with spike on the whole vamping-out, breaking-stuff *mad* thing...xander is so stupid and immature and insensitive...again i say, poor dawnie...very good chatper though
Thanks, honey!

I'm afraid that for a lot of the time with Xander it's a case of two steps forward and one step back (at least in my fics) and he and Spike just always seem to get off on the wrong foot.

Glad you enjoyed it.

very good read. thanks. are you going to have xander grow up or spike kill him? that seems to be the options at present. thanks again.
Hee! I'd like to think that eventually there might be hope for Xander... Maybe I'm a fool.

Thanks!

Mmm, great chapter.

You mean, he's not an indentured servant? LOL...Oooo, and now Xander feels thissss big. And all in front of the Reverend, too...

So *that's* the first sign of an apocalypse - two Watchers! LOL...either way, Buffy's going to be thrilled to have her pseudoDad around.

And chocolate's a great cure-all.
Thanks, honey!

Hee, sometime Xander will learn to keep his mouth shut and stop his prejudices getting the better of his brain.

Hee! Yep, I guess that Buffy will be quite happy to have Giles around.

Nice chapter but has Xander wised up?
Thanks!

Let's just say that Xander is now in a position where he has realised that he needs to wise up. It won't happen overnight, but...
