In A Bath Tea Shop, by LJS

This small ficlet is to fulfill an unofficial Help Pakistan ficlet request. callmesandy asked for Giles/Anya, with the additional prompt of 'scones.' This is the result -- with all apologies to John Betjeman

This was so like a cup of tea and a scone -- the perfect pick me up for the middle of the afternoon.

I like Miss Jordan Jones, and your Giles and Anya (or should I call them Lapsang and Strawberry?) were on as ever.

I do love that your shopkeeper both comforts herself with the knowledge that those were yesterday's scones, and isn't as impressed as Rupert is with Anya's 20 pound note. It's a perfect moment for all three of them.

Nicely, nicely done.

Thank you thank you, W_P! I'm glad that the OC was likable, and I'm really glad you enjoyed those bits you mentioned.

Also, I'm glad that you read. Your comments are a treat!

this is delightful ... whimsical, magickal, and I love JJ's pov. You just do know what one needs on a gloomy friday afternoon as one tries to ease into a weekend.

So lovely. I liked the shopkeepers point of view of them.

Thank you thank you! I'm so glad you read and enjoyed, and I appreciate it. :-0

This is lovely, and an interesting look at Giles and Anya from an outsider's point of view.

Thank you thank you, A, for indulging my love of that particular trope, and for kindly reading and commenting. Many thanks indeed!
