Giles and Wesley are fun through this section of S3.

Hah! Very nice. I confess I rather adore the dynamic Wesley brings to this part of S3. It's just so much fun watching everyone harrass him, as here. I also enjoyed Giles and his mid-morning banana - is it just me, or does he starting eating in the library more often once once he's fired and Wesley shows up?

This was fun, and definitely worth the wait. (I'm still working on mine, sigh.)

Keep chugging! (One of the things that helped me was reminding myself that it's a *mini*. You get 7 days and nobody expects giant sprawling epics of awesomeness. 500 words of a nifty moment is enough.)

Giles unbends a ton when Wesley shows up, I think. He dresses down from time to time. And yeah, the bananas are being eaten constantly through late S3, though I think we see him carrying fruit before this.

Yes. My favorite bit is a scene in the library - maybe the very first with Wesley? - in which Giles is sitting on the library table, and he is eating a lollipop. Unspoken dismissal just doesn't get any better than that.

What was up with all that fruit in the library, anyway? Not to mention the donuts.
