Three Very Different Stories For Your Saturday Reading
Hi guys. It has been a long and busy week here and my Saturday is about to get even busier. Hence, the reason I'm posting my recs early this morning.
My first choice today is a Giles/Cordelia fic, Need by Laure Alexander and Kate Keene. I will say, it won't be to everyone's taste. It is rated FRAO for spanking and discipline. Cordelia is coping with a breakup the only way she knows how. From the way she behaves around Giles, it is obvious this isn't the first time the pair have indulged in this type of behaviour and Giles certainly has his own reasons for helping Cordelia.
My second rec is another dark(ish) story. It is a very short piece, but what it lacks in length is makes up for in quality. Always by Marta Jadczyk is an AU: Buffy dies, Giles seeks vengence fic. If Buffy's death had been written this way on the show, I could quite see this being Giles's reaction and from my point of view, it never hurts to see Ripper coming out to play.
My final rec today will certainly lighten the mood I've set here. A Night To Remember by Zigpal picks up at the end of The Prom. However, instead of dancing with Angel, Buffy spends her evening dancing with Giles. When everyone else starts pairing off, Buffy opts to stay with her Watcher. Ice cream leads to an interesting evening. Who can resist the idea of a chocolate covered Watcher? I know I can't!
Have a great weekend everyone.
