Giles had been putting an official regime together for both the Slayers and the Watchers. Both would need guidance but of course, Wesley, Alex, and Niks would have to approve what he and Buffy rallied together to create. He sat back, studying the first of his notes, wondering if he should place Faith there first or maybe go with Solace instead.

There were footsteps right outside his door, making him look up in time to see a familiar face stepping right into his office and plunging right into a spiel that almost sounded rehearsed.

When Andrew was done with his monologue, Giles studied him for a good 30 seconds before smiling. "Nice to see you again, too, Andrew," he told the young Watcher. "Why don't you have a seat and we can calmly discuss your return here. Welcome back, by the way. It's good to have you here. I'm sure many of the girls will be excited to see you and also, another Watcher."

Wesley checked his watch once more. Damn. He was late for his meeting with Giles. Going over some notes the older watcher had drawn up after a meeting with Buffy and wanted to go over with the other Watchers. Both Miss Thompson-Wright and Miss Riley had said to be busy. Wesley had the suspicion they were both avoiding the other Watchers. No doubt a backlash from what happened during the whole Raz incident where Miss Riley had revealed something rather unusual about herself as well ( ... )

Andrew wasn't really ready for a pleasant talk-- because in his mind he had calculated the top ten worst things that could happen ever. He smiled wide, and felt a strong flush come over his cheeks by the time Giles had finished. He'd use the term Watcher to refer to himself. That was good ( ... )

Apologies for the delay! wearing_tweed October 2 2008, 02:24:38 UTC

Giles regarded Andrew as the once enemy sat there, looking a little nervous. When it came down to it, this young man pulled through during the fall of Sunnydale. "Yes, I'm sure a celebration of some kind would be in place, just not so sure it would be us."

He looked up when Wesley entered and gave him a nod as a greeting to his fellow Watcher and Englishman.

"Wesley, it seems Mr. Wells has come to come under our wings of Watcherhood." He smiled back at Andrew. "We might even assign you to a Slayer and everything." He looked back down at some of the notes. "You've come just in time. We plan to have an assembly of both Watchers and Slayers, and evaluate exactly how to train not only them, but ourselves."

He couldn't quite hide a grimace when Giles - rather enthusiastically for Giles - told him that not only was Young Master Wells going to become a Watcher... He was also going to be assigned a Slayer. Now Wesley was well aware that there were more Slayers then Watchers... for a change. And what a change that was. But he vividly recalled the mistakes the previous council had made, with Wesley himself as a shining example of failure after failure ( ... )

At first, Andrew's face was blank. Then, he started to wonder if he was dreaming. He didn't need to look down to see if he was dressed only is his underpants--he could feel the many layers of tweed protecting him. But Giles and Wesley had their clothes on too, so yes, this was reality ( ... )

Giles could see the looks on both Andrew and Wesley's faces at the mention of assigning a Slayer. And the looks couldn't have looked more different; it was nearly amusing. It was a loose term in assigning a Slayer. At least, not until they believed Andrew was ready to take a newer one under his wings.

He ignored the conversation about some pipe that Wesley brought up, rifling through some papers. It was all beginning to come together - the Slayers, the Watchers, and those that didn't fall in either but were just as integral a part in this team as any.

"Hm?" he asked, realizing Andrew had changed the subject. "Oh, nothing serious other than establishing training and routines, really. You came just in time to throw in any advice you might've picked up in your travels." He raised his brows, wondering if Andrw had picked up ANYTHING during his time away from them.

The look Andrew received from Wesley this time was one of pure horror mixed with utter bemusement. Bubbles? Really? No he couldn't grasp the concept. Bubbles? And this boy was going to train a Slayer for gods sake? Wesley took a moment to despair for the youth of this nation. Bubbles. The look shifted from Andrew to Giles in the hopes that the older Watcher had hopefully heard the bubble remark as well. It seemed clear right away though that he hadn't ( ... )
