AND XANDER SAVES THE DAY! :)

Giles grumbled but did as they told him, knowing Jenny would have his hide if he refused medical attention... ironic a thought as that was, given her own stubbornness. Look who's talking, Giles. :)
I love whenever these two have to go to the hospital, because their immediate concern is ALWAYS the other, even though they're hurt too. THEY'RE JUST SO CUTE!!!! <3
Nervously, he shifted on his feet, eyes flicking over her again. "Yes, but what about ( ... )

I KEEP FORGETTING TO MENTION THIS:

Giles took a step forward, shoulder-to-shoulder with his wife as tiny, invisible but tangible sparks leapt between their magically-enhanced selves.
FUCK. YES. (pardon mon français)

And it was in the last one when they held hands and I forgot, and I'm like: "Oh, I'll just mention it in the feedback for the next chapter."
BUT THEN YOU MADE HER PREGNANT AND ALL SENSIBLE THOUGHTS WENT FLYING OUT THE WINDOW.

But yeah. They're AWESOME!
Reminded me of when they first tried to see if Giles was a conduit for her, and they ended up in opposite sides of the room.

GAH! I almost forgot about that magic conduit thing! Hahahaha. I always meant to revisit that later (because that was the only reason I mentioned it in the first place). LOL.

I will definitely have to go back to that in season seven. :D

BUT THEN YOU MADE HER PREGNANT AND ALL SENSIBLE THOUGHTS WENT FLYING OUT THE WINDOW. AHAHAHA. I'm sorry, I'll take full responsibility for that. ;)

I LOVE that moment when Xander saves the day!! The boy definitely has his douchey moments, but I love when we get this side of him -- the hero guy who just loves his best friends to a fault. :D Xander takes way too much crap from this fandom. I love him to pieces.

I love whenever these two have to go to the hospital, because their immediate concern is ALWAYS the other, even though they're hurt too. THEY'RE JUST SO CUTE!!!! <3 Haha! Thanks. :D I always loved writing that part of their dynamic -- even when they're injured, they can push that aside when they're concerned about the other.

And back to the beginning of OHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGOD!!!!
The second I read that, my hands went to my mouth, and I started bouncing my legs up and down out of sheer giddiness. HEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! Thank you thank you thank you!!! That is exactly the kind of reaction that makes me feel like I accomplished what I set out to do. I'm so happy you enjoyed that ending ( ... )

HEEEEEEE! So glad you got the "important" stuff from this chapter ;)

Bahahaha. But, YES! YES, she is indeed pregnant. Figured I teased the idea long enough. Gotta follow-through. :D

I'm SO SO happy you enjoyed this! I've had the ending to this 'episode' written since May, and have been slowly working through the rest of it in my head. I was way too excited to do this one, and I'm so happy you all were on board for the ride!!

It was like it was choreographed, but not in an unrealistic way! In a we-are-totally-in-sync-with-each-other-in-this-bad-ass-magically-enhanced-state-we-can-kick-everybody's-asses-from-here-'til-kingdom-come way! Which is Giles and Jenny's relationship to a T, wouldn't you say? :D Hehehe. Even allllll the way back in "I Robot, You Jane" they worked together flawlessly. And had some awesome moments of sexy snark while they were at it! :D

(Jenny looks BEYOND good in red. It's not even fair) She DOES. Guh. Of course, I may be biased, because I tend to think Robia LaMorte looks fabulous in pretty much any color ( ... )

I was kind of unsure how to describe what I saw in my head -- the 'bubble' for the spell, in my mind, wasn't really one of those perfect, round bubbles -- in my mind, I saw it as the kind that changes shape depending on how Jenny moves. If that makes sense.
That makes COMPLETE sense. I see it, no worries. :)

Like in Dark Age, when he was practically crying as he said the whole, "I don't know how to stop it without killing Jenny" thing. OH, MY HEART. :'( YES! I die a death every single time I see that. My heart is wrenched out of my chest and then broken into a million little pieces on the floor. It's wrong.

YOU SPOIL ME ROTTEN WITH THIS AMAZINGNESS!!!
It's actually mildly embarrassing how fangirlishly excited about the fact that they're pregnant. Ever since I read it, I've burst into fits of giggles at random moments during the day AND NOBODY AROUND ME KNOWS WHY! D:
I'm excited for this little baby DON'T THINK I DON'T KNOW WHAT GENDER IT IS! ;). Words cannot even encompass how much.

Awesome! Glad that came across!

Oh God, that moment in Dark Age is just... gah. The EMOTION he gets in his voice when he worries about Jenny is just nothing short of genius on Anthony Head's part.

Hehehehe! I was hoping that ending would make a few of you happy. And as I had mentioned in earlier chapters, this storyline won't take the front seat in any way -- the season seven canon will still be front-and-center, but it'll still be going on on the sidelines. ;D
