I love both Xander's little speech on schoolwork and Angel's bitching about the English.

So glad you do! :)

I so should be in bed, but I found this through a rec and can't stop reading.

I love this Xander-centric chapter. His complaints about algebra versus the clear practicality of building the kite; and Giles finally realizing something deeper about the young man. And Wesley's immediate belief that anything Xander will build will stand strong no matter what. I also love the images of Giles cuddling little-Wesley, reading C.S. Lewis aloud. You've also very nicely painted Cordelia's depth. The scenes a couple of chapters ago of the playmobil battles had me chortling happily. I also like the little bit of history with Wesley and Rayne.

They're all learning so much about each other, themselves, and that they all need to grow up a bit.

Thank you so much for reading and for leaving such lovely detailed comments for me. I'm so glad you are enjoying the fic so far.

I have to second what everyone has said so far, the "x plus y equals z" speech is fantastic. It's perfectly in character with Xander and I love his logic.

Thanks again. I love Xander to distraction but can never usually find enough for him to do. I'm really glad you enjoyed that scene.
