Monday Giles fic rec
The Scoobies are so cute when they're toddlers, aren't they? And so is Giles. Here are five stories about age-regression.
The first three are responses to Daien's Family Fun Challenge at ODD:
Baby Love by Reni (FRM, B/G)
The Legion of Dim attempts to kill Buffy, but only succeeds in turning the other Scoobies into toddlers. Giles arrives, intending to beg Buffy into letting him retire, but instead is drawn into helping her with their instant family. Then Hank Summers shows up...
Joy by Stephanie Biek (FRT, B/G)
This time it's Willow, trying for the quick-fix by magic, who turns the gang into three-year-olds. Giles' return to England is delayed while he helps a fragile Buffy cope.
Let That Be a Lesson to You by Sweetdoggie (FRM, B/G)
Will Willow never learn to stop messing with those artifacts? Probably not.
And Giles gets his in these two:
Snips and Snails and Puppy Dog Tails by Gileswench (FRAO, B/G)
Everybody's favorite agent of chaos transforms Giles into a six-year-old. Buffy copes, and learns why Giles doesn't lock doors.
Small Fry by James Walkswithwind and Mad Poetess (FRC, X/S if anything)
Giles, Xander, Spike, and Buffy are stuck into four-year-old bodies when they fiddle with a tall, funky artifact. Doh! Cuteness ensues.
"Baby love" and "Snips & snails" have both achieved the status of comfort reading for me, stories I can read to cheer myself up from anything.
