Three Giles Fics
What do today's recs have in common? I really enjoy them. If there's a theme, it's unintentional.
Once, As He Remembered, All Was Singing by doyle_sb4 (Giles/Buffy - FRT) AU season 3. Author describes this story as five things that might have happened but didn't. These lines captured me and have never let me go:
“Does it snow in England at Christmas?”
It’s such a child’s question, such an American question, that he almost laughs. He hides his smile behind the glass. “Sometimes. Parts of England.”
She frowns, as if puzzled at the notion that England should be large enough to have places with different weather.
A Quiet Life by emungere (Giles/Ethan - FRAO) pre-series. Interesting new take on Giles and Ethan's first meeting.
Safe by KJ Draft (Giles/Buffy - FRAO) season 6. Lovely bit of nasty. Buffy's not happy to have been brought back from the dead. Giles pays the price.
