Dear Angel
Sorry I have not been in touch for ages. But I have a terribly odd and I'm afraid, rather cheeky request to make of you. Please feel free to say no. I will totally understand if you do. You see I had to write a paper this year for the Council and it was rather well received, if I do say so myself. I enclose a copy with this, should you wish to peruse! As you will see, I wanted to do a study of something new and exciting. So I thought of HIM and the chip. What could be more exciting than a study on the effects of behaviour modifying chips on vampires? So, to cut a long story short, they want me to come to England and present a synopsis of my paper at this year's Autumn Symposium. It's a great honour. So, and as I said please feel free to say no, but can I borrow him? To take with me? Can you imagine the impact...present my findings, then present him? Oh dear, it's too much to ask isn't it? But sending this in hope.
Yours, Giles

Dear Angel
The flight was fine. So all our worries came to nothing. We are installed at the headquarters of the Council at the above address. You know, he really is a rather endearing creature when you get to know him, isn't he? He's been showing me some extremely interesting new things. Hope all well with you. Tell Wesley he is not missing much at the Symposium!
Yours Giles

Dear Wesley
Is there something you have not told me about Angel? I have just received the strangest... well, I can hardly call it a letter, from him. I enclose it. Oh, by the way, terribly exciting news, I've gone digital or something. Anyway, I have an email address. RGiles@h... Spike showed me how to! He really is a rather interesting creature... when you get beyond the rather odd facade. So, look forward to your thoughts reference Angel. I'm rather concerned. If you use the above, we can test it out!

Dear Angel
I'm afraid your last note completely lost me! Did I lose a page in the post? What do you think then? Email at last, thanks to Spike. As I said, he's been awfully interesting and helpful. Funny, you never mentioned he was either... ever?
Yours, Giles

Dear Giles
Oh dear. I was afraid I might have to explain this one day. Angel is…err…rather possessive of Spike. I really don't feel it's my place to say anymore. Ask one of them. Preferably Angel. I'm sure he will explain.
Yours, Wesley

Re: Angel

Gosh, I see what you mean. He is possessive. But I don't need to ask. I know exactly what it is. It's the Sire / Childe thing, isn't it? We saw it with Drucilla, too. Do you think it would make an interesting study? We could write a joint paper?

Dear Giles
You know I've been reading your paper. It is fascinating. But do you know what? I think actually presenting HIM would totally ruin its impact. No, I think you will get much more credit if you go it alone.

Re: Sending Him Back

Dear Angel
We both found your last awfully amusing. William made a rather risqué comment about `going it alone'... but it won't be so funny in the telling. You had to be there I suppose. Of course, two bottles of Old Croft Original made it ever funnier I expect. We really are having a lovely time. But exhausting! Too many late nights. William says to send you his love.
All the best, Giles

Re: Proposed Study

Dear Wesley
Oh dear. I had an appalling note from Angel. So I did as you suggested and asked William. He has explained it all to me now. I am so sorry. It's awful. I had no idea. What are we going to tell Buffy? Gosh, I don't suppose most vampires live long enough to get senile. And with most, you probably wouldn't notice creeping insanity anyway! How much is Angel aware of what is happening to him to you think? Oh, it's just all too sad. Do tell him we are both thinking of him. William particularly asks to be remembered to him.
Yours sadly, Giles

Re: Late Nights

Funny that, mate, I was only tellin' Rupert `bout the factory the other night. We were both up. You know tossing... like you do when you can't sleep. We are finding sharing a room hard. Both of us... quite hard. It's coming to a head all the time. One of us is gonna erupt soon. Rupert said he'd give me a hand. To move. To get some relief. From him.

He enjoyed me factory stories too.

I am so sorry to bring this up. I know you have troubles of your own... and not long... oh dear. Anyway, it seems you were right to warn me. But I didn't expect the malfunction to manifest itself in quite this way! I'm having a rather difficult time with him now. He seems awfully moody. Gosh, even tearful once or twice. Terribly embarrassing. Is this a prelude to something worse? Can you advise?

Subject: Disregard my Last

I'm so sorry to have worried you Angel. He seems to have snapped out of it now! So all's well. In fact, he's been on top form. Taken a rather new, young member of the council under his wing. Imagine, Julian had never even met a Vampire before. You can imagine how fascinating they find each other. At least it gives me a good night's sleep, not having him in here with me all night! William says to tell you he's being good and showing Julian the ropes. He said you would be pleased to hear that, so I pass it on. Why he would use such a salty nautical expression is beyond me! Hope it makes sense to you! Do give my regards to Buffy and Xander if they are both still there.
Yours Giles.

Good God man, I've been away for a few days. Only just got your last. I said ask Angel. Not the idiot. Disregard everything he told you. Angel is perfectly well. Maybe a bit depressed. But with Angel, as you know, it's rather hard to tell. But he is not, I repeat not, senile.

Dear Angel

I am terribly sorry about all the confusion but that's not why I'm sending this. There's been an incident. Quite ruined my presentation tomorrow. Spike is in custody of the Council - they won't even let me see him. All I can get out of anyone is that he bit the new council member. Julian is badly hurt. So much for behaviour modification.
Awfully sorry, Giles

Oh dear oh dear. Julian was a complete impostor. He had a bit of a history apparently. Bit of a reputation for…dear me, you know…bit of an Oscar Wilde, if you get my meaning. But dangerous with it. William seems to have been defending himself! Well, what with his chip, I suppose he can't even defend himself against…that. Doesn't bear thinking about. Might as well be back at school. Anyway I just don't know what to tell Angel. William won't see me. (I don't blame him – how embarrassing for him). Please advise.
