No, he just punned you, Buffy. Mocking has a completely different vibe.

This was a wonderful, in voice scene. I love that Giles is so exasperated and Buffy is so winningly bubbly. I also love that The Council sends out frequent mailouts. Hilarious.

I like to think, if the Council had survived, they would have moved on to email by now. But I doubt it.

Thanks for the great feedback!

I second brunettepet, great job utterly capturing the voices. By "distilled intelligence" I literally heard Giles voice in my head (and let's not look to closely at the schizophrenic tendencies that implies, okay?).

This qualifies as a missing scene from the show.

Thank you so much - humour and dialogue are both firsts for me (I'm such a newbie)and it's great to have good feedback.

Everything you wanted to know about Vampires but were afraid to ask Hahaha! Brilliant! A terrific capture of their voices. Especially the punnery at the end. I can't imagine Giles having any other sort of sense of humor.

Thank you! I seem to have an inner Giles voice, which this comm is bringing out.

I tell myself that's a good thing...

That's good to hear - I'm always afraid of sounding too English (not a Giles problem, clearly!)
